Mr. Universe WPF 2009

I am back from Italy where the Mr Universe WPF competition has taken place at Campobasso this week-end. My sporting dream has finally been realised. I have taken the Mr Universe title in the masters category. An unforgettable week-end, exhausting but very rich in emotions. I am waiting for photos and videos to allow you to share a few of these moments.
Here some short videos uploaded on Youtube:

NABBA-WFF World Championships 2009

On June 13 I took part in the NABBA/WFF World Championships in Kosice, Slovakia. I went with my friends in Team France - we stayed in a luxury hotel, and the competition was held in the Steel Arena ice hockey stadium. I had a good result, coming 3rd in the Masters 50+ category - and I was the only member of Team France to win a podium placing. I did not have the best of luck - I tied on points with the 2nd place winner, but lost out when the top and lowest marks given by the judges were deducted. So near...........!! I'm training hard now for the NABBA Universe competition which will be held in the UK in October 2009. With your help and support, I'm hoping for a good result there. / 18 jun. 2009

Ripert Body Show 2009

On 2 May I participated in the Ripert Body Show at La Ciotat. I came 2nd in my category, and 2nd in the couples with my friend Karen Felix (videos in the Members Area). My 2nd place qualified me to take part in the NABBA/WFF World Championship on June 13 in Kosice in Slovakia, in the Masters 50+ category. All the best to you all. / 30 may 2009

Return to Competition

Hello friends, 2008 is going well. I participated at the HERACLES cup at VILLEEFRANCHE SUR SAONE in April, I came second in the Over 40s Masters and on 10 May I won the Over 50 category at the RIPERT BODY SHOW at the CIOTAT and came 2nd in the Couples category with my friend KAREN FELIX. Coming 1st has allowed my to qualify for the UNIVERS NABBA on 4, 5 and 6 October in England. So now I'm ready for new adventures. Thank you all for your encouragement which helped me surpass myself. We will be putting new photos and videoas onto the siteof these competitions. All the best to you all. / 17 may 2008

Holiday in St Tropez

Here are some photos of my last holiday to Cannes and St Tropez, what memories! I had pulled a muscle in my right calf while training a fortnight earlier, it has now healed and I can continue training my legs very carefully. It seems that 2007 has not been a good year but I'm sure that 2008 will be a lot better. My next competition should be the "Top de Colmar" in April bearing in mind that I've had to turn down "Universe". Many thanks to you all and watch this space for more photos soon. / 03 oct. 2007

Good News

Good evening friends, Just a short message to tell you that I started training again about two months ago. I was unable to before due to an injury to my shoulder but that's just an old memory now. I'm back to some good training sessions. I hope to be ready for the next date in the calendar, that is Mr Universe in November with the pre-selections around October. So, I hope to see you then. I would like to keep you up to date with my progression by putting up some photos on the web site as well as some video clips. I'd like to thank you all for visiting the site regularly and I hope that you will keep coming back. See you soon, Bye bye. / 27 jun. 2007

New Look for the Official Website

Also, a warm welcome to all new visitors to my brand new website. First and foremost, I would like to thank my webmaster Paolo, who's done a terrific job at putting all this together! A big "thank you" to you Paolo! I hope you all will have a pleasant surfing experience through the pages of this site, whether you are a bodybuilder or not. Please, do not hesitate to contact me. I'll be delighted to answer to any questions and/or requests. / 28 jan. 2007

Alain's first Cinema Appearance

A piece of news for you all: I’ve got a small part in the new Claude Lelouch film, Roman d’une Gare (Station Story), with Fanny Ardant. Shooting 10 October at Beaune. My role (a big word for what’s really just an appearance) is a bodyguard. It’ll be a new experience for me, and I’ll try to take a few photos so I can share it with you. / 08 oct. 2006

A Difficult End of Year

Hello firiends. I will not be able to participate to the year's end competitions because of an injury to my shoulder which will cause me to interrupt my training for several months. It' a blow, obviously ( I might even need to have surgery...). However, I'll do my best to regain my good form as quickly as possible and be competitive again by the end of 2007. / 05 oct. 2006
