Everything is possible: the underwater workout

Alison is a professional bodybuilder. In the 2000 he earned the Mr. Universe title. 20 years later he still traing hard every single day challenging himself with different achievements. Despite he lives on a small Caribbean island sorrounded by the ocean, he doesn't really feels comfortable in it. I propose him to take some shoots underwater as it would have been cool. After he was reluctant for a few months, he took the challenge and we planned it. After I taught him how to improve his staying underwater, he definetly liked it and took confidence in doing it. He then brought weights underwater and began to train under the ocean's surface.
