You Want to Compete as a Bodybuilder?  Of course you want to compete because you have spent months, may be even years training to build your body to perfection. Why keep it hidden?  Most likely you have heard that bodybuilding competition involves a maximum level of physical and mental control unlike most other sports. Yes, it is very, very true. Entering a bodybuilding competition brings your training level to a whole new order of existence. Be aware that on Competition Day everyone on stage will not have a perfect physique. This is true. Typically some will be more muscular while…

Exercise is all about mental control. The body and mind is wonderful and sends messages to the brain that muscles are sore or we are tired etc. When weight training or performing cardiovascular exercise sometimes one must push himself or herself through the pain barrier, especially during an ironman triathlon, cycling event, marathon, or race of any kind. How is that possible? When the body is tired through exercise exertion, lactic acid fills the muscles and acts as a force to help rather than slow down your workout. This means that only your mind and the electrical output it gives…

Alright, we’re in the homestretch…3 weeks to go and TONS of teams need miracles, solid wins, losses from other teams, miracles, (to keep losing), to rest players, an easier schedule, to not be pushed so hard, to find their offense, to find their defense, to find both, to stop vicious cycles, to show us what they’re made of, to pray for some good luck, to get back some injured players, to fight for a better playoff seeding, to get a home game in the playoffs, to fight for home field throughout the playoffs, and in some cases…just stop sucking.

The world of professional wrestling is the home of hush-hush legends. Every other sport in the world, has more recognizable players than those in wrestling. Even after their days in the matted floor ring are long over…professional wrestlers do not get the public attention that other athletes receive. Dying is no exception. It’s been mentioned, recently, that there seems to be, somewhat, of a curse on professional wrestlers. They are dying very young, in disturbing numbers. This year alone… there have been, at least, seven deaths of professional wrestlers or former professional wrestlers. The oldest one was only 53 years…

You need to be aware as you go through your training sessions that your workout is intense to the degree that you push your body to do more. If you plan to do 7 repetitions but know your body can do 10, and then do 10.  Work hard at each set until your body can no longer use proper technique and stop.  Here are some more principles…
