PHILOSOPHY IN TRAINING: Simple.
Only two words. Determination and Discipline.
Don't rush. The more time spent in bodybuilding, the more muscles
you produce. Concentrate in proper execution and the program especially
created for you.
Don't copy another bodybuilder's program. Our muscles are like the
tree trunk. Every year, a ring develops which makes it wider and
bigger. Our muscles have layers too. Every year you workout, you
develop new layers.
SUPPLEMENTATION:
For more protein
intake: Creatine Monohydrates. Whey Protein. All vitamins are taken
from natural foods. I don't take commercially produced vitamins.
PHILOSOPHY IN LIFE: Keep
away from all vices namely: smoking, drinking, drugs, gambling and
fooling around. How? Get into sports. Results are quite rewarding
not only physically, but also mentally, socially and spiritually.
Sports develop a good character in a person.
WHY BODYBUILDING: It
is a foundation sport. All sports need to build some muscles in
certain specific areas. Like for example, running needs muscles
in the leg areas. In rowing, the arms and muscles around the torso
for forward and backward movement. In basketball, the arms, shoulders
and calves. In Tennis, shoulders, arms and thighs and calves. Etc
etc. All these sports require weights to build specific muscles
that they use all the time in their particular sport. Athletes develop
more speed and more motion through using threadmill and other equipments
in the gym. Once you are in bodybuilding, you can indulge in practically
almost most sports. Name it. Swimming, throws (shotput, javelin,
hammer & discus), tennis, rowing, gymnastics, etc.
And it is the
most "beautiful" sport. Compared to other sports, bodybuilders
stand out in crowds because of their beautiful and very impressive
body form.
MESSAGE TO NEW BODYBUILDERS: If
you want to make "magic", please don't take steroids and
other drugs to build your muscles. It is very true that these miracle
drugs do great results in a very short span of time in bodybuilders
who use them. But in the "long" term or shall we say in
the long run, you lose plenty.....your life. Always remember and
just stick to Sylvia Marri Stone's Magic Double D's: Determination
and Discipline. These are all it takes to build an impressive
body. In time, you will be greatly rewarded in doing so. You live
longer and you stay healthy all throughout.
