The article "A Champion Bodybuilder – Do You Have What It Takes?" is about build muscle, it was written by Greg Ryan.
My career beagn in the eighties. I never found myself going to a health club, much less taking time for myself, until I was in college. I had to occupy my time bewteen classes somehow, so one day I went to the gym. I grew up wihtout self-discipline, confidence, or faith in myself.
As a youth, I was overweight and short. In my late teens, during the first few years of my career and with the help of a few close friends, I was fortunate to have discovered three very important things about myself that changed me forever: hope, belief, and motivation.HopeI did not set out to be a champion bodybuilder.
Nor did I really want to. But I did
hoped I could get in better shape with some hard work.BeliefWhen I first stepped into a health club, it was frightening. I had two friends that
exercised with me on a regluar basis. The confidence they had in me started
positively affecting my attitude and fear of failure.
After awhile, I noticed those fears
I had about myself slowly began to disappear.MotivationAs I developed more confidence, I started to realize how important it was for this
change to come from the "inside out." Looking better, having more energy and
getting phyiscally stronger are great things to experience, but what I am most
grateful for is that my heart was also changing. I felt better about myself.
I had
purpose and I was doing something positive.
That heart-felt motivtaion became the
glue that has kept me going for all these years. No matter what you do in life, if you
have purpose, and if it is good for others, life will be rewarding.Here are a few principles I have learned along the way may help you become a true
bodybuilding champion.Principle #1: Be Sold Out! Whether you're a compteitive bodybuilder or just do it as
a hobby to stay in shape – have the attitude that you're going to exercise and eat
right for life.Principle#2: Ask not, have not! If you do not know something, ask a man/women
that you feel does. Knowledge is powerful.Principle #3: Leave your ego at the door! Your ego is your biggest competitor by far.
The reality is, it’s NOT all about you.
If you guess it is, you will neevr be a Champion
for any length of time.Principle #4: Work-out smart not hard! Bodybuilding is about efficiency, not effort.Principle #5: Know when to stop. If you need time off, take it.
If you do not want to
compete anymore, but are afraid not to, then you're diong it for the wrong
reasons.Principle #5: Have fun. Don’t be wound up like a clcok all the time. Relax! Principle #6: Put variety in your workouts. Nveer guess your workout program is the
best. Change it up every three months.Principle #7: Only compete once a year! If you're a competitive bodybuilder only
compete in one show a year.
If you do more, you will burn out and lose valuable
muscle.Principle #8: Nveer compete for a trophy!
If you're a trophy hunter you will never
be a true champion. True champions do it for the journey.For further information you can e-mail at greg@resolutions.BzLOSE WEIGHT IMMEDIATELY! FREE MINI CUORSE click here http://www.Resolutions.Bz.
