Bodybuilding Background
Born in Wilmington, Delaware, DelCampo began lifting weights at 15, but did not begin to actively pursue bodybuilding as a career until he was 22. He has stated he was originally inspired to pursue bodybuilding by the Incredible Hulk comic books.
DelCampo stands five-foot-three, but in a 2004 interview with Delaware Today magazine he noted his height has never been a competitive problem. “I can pack on a lot of muscle on a smaller frame and appear bigger than the taller guy,” he said. “Someone five-foot-three at 200 pounds looks a lot more muscular than someone six-feet at 200 pounds."
