Michael Francois

After bagging both the Chicago Pro-Invitational (his pro debut) and the prestigious Night of Champions, this 1993 Nationals champion, Michael Francois, has entered the elite of our sport with such a bang that he probably has certain IFBBers shaking in their posing trunks. Yes, Mr. Francois has arrived. But what lies behind that impenetrable wall of muscle and might? Intelligence, sincerity and friendliness form the cornerstone of this man's personality, and what strangers might perceive as arrogance is, in fact, shyness. The bodybuilding world has a pro to be not only in awe of, but also proud of. Meet Michael Clarence Francois.
