Robert won the open superheavy class at Eastern USA this past November against some tough competition. Was honored to meet him and his lovely wife Kathy and speak with them after the show. Very pleasant and grounded people.
Know he is going places, and will ask him to come here and post.

LOL, Mike!! Robert has been training 14 years (half his life to this point). Doesn't happen overnight!
But just compete with yourself, and so far the progress has been visible and satisfying. That's the bottom line, bro.

Heard from Robert and his site is ready: robertburneika.net/ and click on his picture to enter. I've no doubt that this athlete is a future pro. In his first national level show this year, he was 7th in USA supers, and followed it up with a 6th in North American supers. He plans on improving his conditioning, and tentative plans are for 09 Nationals. Class act on and off stage. Disregard the above link. This is Robert's new official site.
