Aaron "The Freak" Bodybuilding Blog!!

First week of FST - 7 done!

2011-10-24T03:19:00.000-04:00

I know I have been slacking a bit on my blog. Been updating my posts on my Facebook page - http://www.facebook.com/MP.Aaron.Powell. But I will start back here now as I follow my FST - 7 training now.

The FST - 7 system can be used for overall growth and especially to improve stubborn body parts that were seemingly resistant to just about anything else the person had tried. FST-7 encompasses several factors both inside and outside the gym. After a really good run using the program my coach we decided to switch it up and try some thing new for next few months.

Week 1 went really well sore but not to sore. I was off the prior week any way to allow my body to rest! I am doing my training split as follows: Monday - Chest and Biceps, Tuesday - Legs, Wednesday - OFF, Thursday - Chest and Triceps, Friday - Back and Calves, Saturday - Shoulders and Biceps, Sunday - OFF.

This next week I will be upping my training intensity now that I got a swing of things with it. I might start posting my training here too now. I not a big weight person but I make sure I use weight that I need to grow.

Also started at a new gym this week to help with my training schedule. I am heading back to a 24 Hour Fitness in Coral Springs!

Loving my training program!

2011-08-20T22:11:00.000-04:00

It has been a month now of me working with Chris at Iron Prodigy. It has been a great month too! When I started I was weighing 290lbs, a month later I am up to 310lbs and getting leaner and tighter by the day.

I am super excited to see what type of progress I will make over the next month. He has me on a high volume/ high intensity training program which is really kicking my butt good. Sometimes we do know what works for us but we also get stuck in our own routines and miss out on growth opportunities.

This is one of the heaviest I have been and I look way different then the last time I was even near this weight. I am excited to see what will come next and to see what growth the next year has for me!

LUNGES OF DEATH!!

2011-08-05T04:42:00.000-04:00

Part of my new routine is just one day of lunges and deadlifts alone. I am not a big fan of either more for the part of my height and the mechanics then the actual movement. I have done more lunges with the DB but know I need to go heavier and push more then a DB can really help with.

I am starting to get a better idea of what the movement is now, but I got to say I don't know if I could have if it wasn't for the Star Trac Max Rack. I love this machine!

This is a awesome piece of equipment. I can really do a lot on this machine but for LUNGES it has been a god send! Being able to do a full movement lunge but at same time have the support and easy of a smith machine. This has been a big help in my training! Every week I push more and see the weight starting to go up as I get more and more comfortable with the machine.

I am glad I train at a time when the gym is quiet cause if I had to fight for this machine I be kicked out!

2 weeks into my new training

2011-08-02T03:28:00.000-04:00

So now I am 2 weeks into my new training program with Iron Prodigy. I am liking it so far, and really feeling it hitting me hard!

I am doing a High Intensity Moderate Volume program. I have not had some else do my training routine in many years now. I was skeptical at first but I am liking it so far. I am feeling my strength and seeing my body change slightly already.

I will be posting some pics in a month or so to show the results. I am just really excited to be kicking some butt in gym right now and starting to change and get my body ready for next level I am taking it too.

UGH.... Why can't people understand???

2011-07-21T03:00:00.000-04:00

I don't know why people can't understand when you live paycheck to paycheck that you can't just get up and leave on a vacation whenever you feel like. I don't like making excuses, but even when it is a paid trip. If I can't pay for my bills when I get back it doesn't make it worth my while.

I guess some people are much more secure and set with there lifestyle and can leave for a week without an ramifications. I feel bad that I can't go, but I don't know what else to do. They are mad and I am poor. I guess its just not in my cards to go, I just hate that they are mad at me for not being able to go. They are mad that I just can't take off the time. They feel that 1 week won't hurt, but it will I am trying to get more stable financially but with bodybuilding and bills, things never seem right.

Half a week into new program

2011-07-21T01:40:00.000-04:00

Ok, So far I am 3 days into my new program. I am feeling good. It is very different then what I am used too. I am waiting to get the full program. I am just using a outline but I think it will be really good. I am just hoping it will be intense enough for me.

I hope to have the full program tomorrow. The diet has been good but I am finding out what things really cost! It is a bit but I think it will be worth it in the long run.

I do need to lose some bodyfat, but will see how Chris's program works for me over next month.

Don't forget to follow me also on Facebook!

2011-07-17T01:12:00.000-04:00

I have had so many friend requests that I started a fan page where i post messages and info about my training as well. If your on Facebook and want to follow along with my progress. Feel free to like my page Aaron Powell - Bodybuilder.

This is the start of a taking things to a new level with my training. I am glad I can share this with you and hope to get feed back and more comments from each and every one of you. I appreciate the kind words and compliments that I get from you. I also try to take the time to answer the messages i get from you all.

I hope to hear more from all of you.

Thanks,

Aaron

Been Some Time...

2011-07-11T14:38:00.003-04:00

Hey all, been a bit busy with a lot of stuff going on. First off, I just got back from a bit of a vacation. I had to get one, I needed some Aaron time. I took a trip to Orlando with some friends. It was a good 2 days and then I got to the Southern States Bodybuilding in FTL.

Some of the best news is me working with Chris Haveost we will be working over next year to see where he can help take my physique. Chris is owner of Iron Prodigy. I have been watching him and a few of his clients transformations, they are great! I got the first phase of my diet plan and just about a got all of the stuff on my list. I need some help getting the Karbolyn and like to get some of Egg White International egg whites. These are the last two things I need to get before I start the program up. I am hoping to get some help if anyone can get them off my Amazon list that be great!

I hope to be getting everything started by next week Monday so I can start up. I am very excited to see what is going to come about with Iron Prodigy.

I like to take this time to wish Chris and all the Iron Prodigy Athletes good luck this weekend at the NPC Colorado show!

Great Weekend!

2011-06-20T23:50:00.002-04:00

I had a great weekend, I went to the MuscleMania Universe 2011 in Miami. I got to see my buds Corey, Justin, and Dube compete. They all did a great job this weekend. I love going to shows and seeing my buds compete. It motivates me and keeps me on track as a bodybuilder. I can't wait to get back on stage in 2012.

Been really hammering away at the gym. I am going to be weighing in this week and hope to be able to get some progress pics if I can meet up with a friend to help me out with that. So hard when you do it alone.

More SubSterone

2011-06-16T14:01:00.007-04:00

Now that I am increasing my dosing of SubSterone, I needed to get more sent to me! I am loving this stuff stronger and harder everyday. I taking it 4 x a day, increased my protein and it's like "WOW". The pumps are really great with there products. I am now 3 weeks in and hoping to be able to take some pics and measurements soon.

I am waiting today for my new Camera to come and hope it does soon. I hate waiting on packages, but while waiting today I finally got to talk to someone I have been trying to talk to for a while. I am hoping all works out well, his sister in law speaks highly of him. She is the one that has been trying to get us together to talk and see if we can work something out to help me.

Things been slowly changing in my life. I know we wish things moved at a faster pace, but we need to sometimes slow down and just reflect on things before things move forward.

PUMPED!!

2011-06-13T23:05:00.002-04:00

Every workout I keep going up in weights and adding more plates to stacks. I am already at the point were I am adding plates to the back machine because it is not heavy enough. I am really just feeling stronger and more powerful. I feel the MMv3 is just helping me to push harder every workout and with combination of the SubSterone.

I keep wondering when I am going to plateau. I know it has only been really been 3 weeks but I so excited to see what the next 4 weeks has in store for me.

As soon as the new camera comes I will be taking some progress pics to post as well!

New Camera Coming!

2011-06-13T18:26:00.002-04:00

After much research and debate I decided it was time to get a new camera. I have been using my old Kodak point and shoot for over 4 years now and finally took its toll. I tried over last two shows to use it and getting lines and grainy pictures. Also for my progress pictures I been needing something I can use and document my progress.

So the new camera is a D3100 Digital SLR Camera w/18-55mm DX VR Zoom Lens

Once I get the new camera I can start taking my progress shots to show you how great these LG SCIENCES supps have been working for me. I have been seeing such great strength gains. I been really putting up more weight and feeling the pumps like never before. Really like to thank LG SCIENCES for giving me the opportunity to blog about there great products.

One Of The Best HAM Workouts!

2011-06-09T23:17:00.002-04:00

Got a great pump during my hamstring workout tonight! I have not hit them this hard and got this feeling in a very long time. I really been trying to go nice and deep with my stretches and nice and slow on back up. I have had issues with my sciatica in the past and always have been careful. I am trying to be careful but I am glad to be going stronger.

I am loving the LG SCIENCES products, every day I feel myself growing stronger. I feel like the weights are getting lighter and lighter every workout. I can push more and more, and not even feel like I am trying. LOL

I am already expecting some more supplements to be coming in from LG SCIENCES. I just want to show them how dedicated I am to growing and using there products to make myself bigger and better every day!

Well it time to eat and sleep to grow!

SubSterone Added

2011-06-07T19:49:00.003-04:00

So on Sunday I started the SubSteron: Ecdysterone, as I stated before but will explain again this is a non-hormonal anabolic supplement whose ingredients have been proven in clinical studies to be as anabolic as actual steroids while exhibiting no undesirable side effects. Ecdysterone is extracted from Rhaponticum carthamoides and is guaranteed to be 98% (or higher) pure. This remarkable plant extract, has been proven in numerous clinical studies to be more anabolic than methandrostenolone (Dianabol), with no androgenic side effects. Ecdysterone is a non-hormonal dietary supplement that will cause a huge increase in anabolism but will not effect hormone levels.

Ecdysterone works by increasing nitrogen retention and increasing protein synthesis at the cellular level (for this reason we strongly recommend that you increase your daily dietary intake of protein while using this product). It has been scientifically proven, without a doubt, that increased nitrogen retention and resistance training will stimulate muscle growth and burn fat as much as 20 times more effective than without the increase in nitrogen retention caused by ecdysterone supplementation.

Other uses include increase and stimulation of protein synthesis, increase in total protein levels, cholesterol-lowering effect, stabilization of cell membrane, anti-arrhythmic, restorative action on atherosclerosis, anti-inflammatory properties, antioxidant effects and reduction in fatigue and apathy. Results are further improved when ecdysterone is consumed with protein and the relative amount of proteins in the diet increases.

I was originally going to take 2 droppers of this daily, but was advised that I should be taking 4 so I will start taking 4 droppers i will do 2 droppers 2x daily. I figure since I usually have 2 workouts daily I can spread out the dosing as well to keep it higher and more active in my system.

I will take 2 droppers in morning and 2 droppers before my evening workout! I couldn't get to the gym yesterday because of a car issue but all set and back at it today. I hate missing workouts but LIFE has a way of getting in the way I am lucky that my program is intense enough that even missing a day is not a major set back. I will stil be training those muscle later this week again anyway.

I will let you now this week goes on it and can't wait to see the gains and strength increase even more so.

Strength Gains Are HAPPENING!

2011-06-02T23:25:00.002-04:00

I am loving the strength gains I am seeing so far. It's like every workout I am seeing more plates being added to the machines! I am getting great pumps and moving more weight then ever before. I have been really working on bringing up my chest this past year and seeing the new found strength I am hoping to see the size coming soon.

I am definitely getting into the swing of taking my LG supplements I look forward to getting my breakfast to take my Methyl 1 - D, and my MMv3. I really have to say I am noticing such good results as they say so far. I am feeling the focus in the gym so much more. Sometimes I swear i can feel every fiber contracting and moving as I train lately.

I can't wait to add the SubSterone next week and see what that brings to the table! It is great to try something new and see how it does with your body! I am also going to be adding my aminos during my workout again! I am very excited to get back on them again.

So The WEIGH-In WEIGHT Is In!! 290.5 It Is!

2011-06-02T12:12:00.006-04:00

So I have some people asking me what my weight was. I have not weighed in for a very long time. My coach was closet in guessing my weight, he thought I was 280 a few weeks back. I have to say I was not thinking I was even close to that weight! Now that I have a good idea of my starting weight I will get some more stats to you soon.

I had a great quad workout last night, leg press is almost back to 1000 for 12 reps again. I feeling stronger every day, and moving bigger weight everyday is exciting. I have only been on these LG SCIENCES products for a few days but am definitely feeling a difference in my body already.

I also added some links to my blog for people looking for more info on training and ways to add size. Check them out! http://blog.musclepotential.com/p/lg-links-some-useful-links-to-make-your.html

This looks like its going to be a good month in the gym! Let's see how big I will get in next few months! ITS GROWING TIME!

Day 3 - INSANE PUMP!

2011-05-31T22:23:00.003-04:00

3rd day on LG SCIENCE Trifecta Stack and the pumps are growing more intense by the day! I trained chest, biceps, abs, and forearms today at the gym. I am really pushing much more and feel the muscle working more with each exercise. I am really liking the results so far.

I have not really been on any supplements lately and it feels so good to be on these LG products!

I am also glad to say I will be carrying a posing suit line on my site once it is up and running. I have been working on designing posing suits and physique shorts for the new men's physique class. They are custom made and we have about 100 various colors and fabrics. If you got any up coming shows or have an interest in them please leave me a message here and will email you back. Will post pics soon!

Happy Memorial Day!!

2011-05-30T21:03:00.004-04:00

Hey I like to take a sec to say HAPPY Memorial Day to my friends and family in the armed services! Ina B be safe on your next tour in Afghanistan! I miss you and love you. Ashton H miss our talks bro, and so proud of you joining the Navy. Your an amazing little brother! You both are in my prayers and thoughts daily.

Ok so today was my first day training on LG SCIENCE products I have to say I was a bit stronger and more focused today in the gym! The owners were there today when i walked in have not really seen them much since i go in later or before they get in. They said I was looking a lot wider and thicker since last they saw me! I am hoping on my TRIFECTA STACK I can keep it going and get even more dramatic look and feel. I think this will be a great offseason. I will be weighing in tomorrow to start keeping track!

The MMv3 dissolves nicely it has a weird peppermint flavor. It takes a bit to dissolve but once it does you can feel the focusing effects of the MMv3. The Generate has been good so far used it before I went to sleep last night and I have to say was once one of the best sleeps EVER!!

Day 1 down took 2 Methyl 1- D during breakfast and then 2 with dinner. Along with 2 MMv3 with both meals as well. I took my Generate at noon 6 pumps and 6 pumps right before bed!

Will get weight to you tomorrow.

So It Starts!!

2011-05-29T11:56:00.005-04:00

Today is my first day of my LG SCIENCES products. I am going to be weighing in Tuesday to get some #'s to keep track of progress and stats. I will be following the Trifecta stack for 7 weeks:

	Methyl 1-D	MMv3	Formadrol	SubSterone
Week 1	4/day	4/day
Week 2	5/day	5/day		2/day
Week 3	5/day	5/day		2/day
Week 4	5/day	5/day		2/day
Week 5			4/day	2/day
Week 6			4/day	2/day
Week 7			4/day	2/day

The SubSterone will start after week 1 to give the Methyl 1-D and MMv3 time to get into my system then start with that to really enhance the effect.

The Generate I will take through whole thing since I am such a problem sleeper I feel it will only help me get a deeper rest and recovery!

It's HERE!!!

2011-05-28T12:18:00.007-04:00

So it has finally arrived! I have my LG SCIENCES products.. I like to thank them already for giving more then I expected. When I opened my box I thought I thought I was just getting the Trifecta Stack, but I also got the SubSterone - Ecdysterone, and Generate.

The Trifecta Stack is a combination of three of there best selling products;
Methyl 1-D - is a legal testosterone booster derivative.
MMv3 - will help focus and push harder in the gym.
Formadrol - this will help keep the estrogen levels down.

SubSterone - Ecdysterone - A ecdysterone works by increasing nitrogen retention and increasing protein synthesis (that is why you should increase your daily intake of protein while using this product. It has been found that protein is a very important if not critical component to the usage of Ecdysterone) at the cellular level while also increasing strength and endurance. Since increased nitrogen retention and resistance training will stimulate muscle growth it is without a doubt, that Ecdysterone does work.

Generate is used for massive pumps, increased recovery, increased sleep quality (this is a biggie for me! I have a lot of trouble with sleep), and body recomposition.

These products stacked together will give me the combination of everything I think I will need this off season to really pack on some quality mass and gains.

I will in the next blog let you know how I use these products. I will be following the instructed guidelines for use but will give a chart so you may follow it better as well.

Again. I would like to THANK LG SCIENCES, and Eric Mar for making this happen.

UPS Drives Me Crazy!!

2011-05-28T02:57:00.002-04:00

So I called yesterday so I could go to the UPS location and pick up my package. I knew I was not going to be home for delivery and knew that this was going to be a long weekend. So I figured I would get my LG SCIENCES package Friday. SO... I drive over before I head to the gym at 9:30 in the morning. I get in line, there was only a few but they all took about 5 - 10 mins each to get there packages. I give my InfoNotice to the lady behind the desk and then wait and wait AND wait..... about 15 - 20 mins later the lady comes back to tell me they put it on the truck and they were short staffed and must of missed the hold on the package. I was so annoyed so now I have to go back between 10am and 1pm on Saturday now! Ugh! I can't wait to get started with my LG SCIENCES products.

MISSED THE UPS DRIVER!

2011-05-26T22:49:00.006-04:00

I got home from running an errand today and missed the UPS driver. I was like "OH MAN!!" I hate missing deliveries, means I got to wait longer for the package. I really wanted to get my LG SCIENCES product so I can start blogging about them as I see how they help me over the next few months.

I decided instead of trying to wait for the UPS driver I will pick it up at the UPS facility up the street. I am to excited to start blogging and seeing what results. I can achieve.

Change of topic what are your guys opinion on offseason bodybuilders?
I know some thing guys should stay lean and ripped all year others like Lee Priest believe in really massing up.

SOME NEW FOOD!!

2011-05-24T00:49:00.002-04:00

Made some great new food dishes today to take with me this week to work. I am made a Tuna and Rice casserole and a Chicken salad. I usually cook meals day of but I am looking to make some extra meals for my day. I am not getting enough food I think this will help. I been using a lot of frozen veggies too and been trying to add more fresh veggies into my diet. The Chicken salad is all fresh veggies and grilled chicken. I can eat it as a meal or just as a snack. I will let you know how it taste once i try it.

Do any of you have any good recipes to share?

It Finally Went...

2011-05-23T11:19:00.004-04:00

I AM SAD TO REPORT MY 1997 CHEVY BLAZER HAS FINALLY BIT THE DUST! It has been a very good vehicle and gotten me to many shows, gym sessions, and grocery store runs. It will be missed but I am HAPPY TO SAY I HAVE GOTTEN A 2007 SATURN ION 2. It only has 3000 miles and runs great. It will get me around for now, it's no truck but it will get me to the gym and back!

Also had a good weekend at the casino as well. It is always good to make a few extra bucks.

So amped to get on my LG SCIENCES products and see what gains I will be making, I have heard a lot about there products and know a few people that really liked there stuff. It is a small company but they do make some kickass products. If i can get a good 10lbs out of there products I will be extremely happy!

Happy to announce!!!

2011-05-21T21:32:00.004-04:00

I have gotten my blog sponsored by LG SCIENCES. I will be getting there Trifecta Stack and GHenerate, and seeing how it works for my offseason training. I have not used a lot of pro hormones before and with LG SCIENCES is giving this opportunity to help get there product out there and let me grow with them as a bodybuilder!

In the world we live in today we face a lot of harmful toxins in our environment PCB's, Parabens and BPA. We also face danger from the foods that we eat, farmers spray pesticides like Mancozeb, this is used to supress the formation of fungus and other parasites. These chemicals have been shown to reduce the ability for androgens to be produces by the testicles. This pesticide has been used in the USA for years and has linked to reduced thyroid hormone, as well as reduce testosterone levels.

As we get older we naturally experience a drop in testosterone levels. Men in there 20's will start to see a decline, by the time there in their 30's it can be almost nothing. This is why pro hormones are a great way to get legal and safe alternative to enhance you own androgen levels. If you want a natural way to increase androgen levels, you can look to Methyl 1-D as a way to counter act life's assault on your testosterone levels! Testosterone supplementation is implicated in increased quality of life and reduced levels of anxiety and depression among men. Prohormones like Methyl 1-D have been shown to be reasonably safe.

I can't wait to get my Trifecta Stack and see how there formula works for me. I will be keeping a blog of how I feel and what progress I make with there stack. I like to thank LG SCIENCES in advance for this opportunity. Methyl 1 - D looks like it will help me achieve that lean mass I need to take my physique to the next level.

GOOD THINGS IN THE WORKS!!

2011-05-20T01:05:00.002-04:00

So I have been having a half way descent week. My truck has been acting up, but I have some good things in the works. I hoping to be able to report about one of them very soon! I am hoping it will lead to bigger and better things. I don't want to give it away just yet, but I will be very happy to soon.

Training has been going good very recently. I am back in the swing of thing sand seeing some good changes. I am hoping that with some of the new thing in the works this will get even better.

Great weekend!

2011-05-16T23:30:00.002-04:00

This was a very good weekend for me. I usually go hang out at Isle Casino with my friends to work on Friday and Saturday nights with my buddies. This Friday I won $2000 and then on Saturday won another $300.

It was a great night for me , really needed that and I am glad I am making some financial gains! I been talking to someone that has done photographs with me before and will be seeing soon if I will be doing another photo shoot with him. Also hopefully meeting with a potential sponsor soon, with in next 2 - 3 weeks. We have been talking awhile and hoping that they are excited as I am about meeting and seeing what we can work out!

I want to make this a great year of growth. I am excited to say that my NEW website is looking great. I am looking at new designs with the new Webmaster as we speak.

I am really trying to make thing happen in 2011 and I appreciate all the help and support I have received so far.

2011-05-13T18:18:00.001-04:00

Do you have someone in your life that you can't talk to because you know both care for each but I won't happen. Is it just bad timing?

So Far So Good!

2011-05-11T10:36:00.002-04:00

Well the month is starting off good. Things are getting done, that should bring good results for rest of year. Also getting some compliments on my physique from some people at the new gym.

I been chatting with few my buds lately that are all getting interested in the HRT. Even talked to a photographer I worked with last year might be thinking of getting me into a shoot. Also been chatting with someone that maybe finally they might be interested in meeting to see if they can sponsor me. So we will see how the rest of this month goes,

Things always can see possible but it seems like everyone lately talks more then they can follow through with. So all I can do is keep on top of them and see what we can make happen.

Good Weekend!

2011-05-09T23:44:00.002-04:00

I laugh to think that these guys think they are going to FIND someone. He prob has 100's of the bois he grows. I sure he is like most others and thinks in his own head he is something more then he is. CONGRATS! lol

EATNG FOR SIZE (Repost from my bb.com blog)

Eating for SIZE from Hardcore MUSCLE Magazine –

Author Unknown

With all the high fault in diets going around everywhere now – it is very hard to decide which direction to go. In this article I’m going to state some facts and then let you, the reader, decide what is best for you. I’m probably going to get some guff from people who have different theories than I for what I’m about to write – mainly because it seems passé.

Without a doubt – ‘bulking up’ has gotten a bad name lately, but let me tell you

why first. One thing Dan Duchaine really grilled into us during our interview with him – is how the MARKET controls everything. The market honestly is not for the cultish class of rebel bodybuilders who want to get extremely massive and shake the earth at his every step. No, the market is for the Joe Public who would like to look lean all year round and build some muscle if he can too. And what is the next most important facet – convenience! It must be simple, easy to do and just not a pain in the ass for follow day in and day out.

Yes, everyone wants to be big muscularity if they can, but to the majority – being lean and muscular is vastly more important. OK, I agree that the majority of bodybuilders out there are in this class. I don’t actually consider those guys HARDCORE in my definition of the word but I must see their side too. To me bodybuilding is about growing not dieting (depriv).

What I want you to look at is this – the big picture. While reading this do you want to put on as much muscle, as fast as you possibly can – for the pursuit of your long-term goal?

Or do you want to maybe compromise muscular gains, growing at a much slower rate but look lean the whole way while trying to put on muscle. This is the tremendously hard decision you have to make. And yes, I feel it is tremendously hard because no one wants to build muscle at a less then optimum rate and no one wants to be a little fatter than they have to be.

Let’s simplify things shall we? Basically you can divide pretty much all the new and old concepts diets into two groups. First there is the moderate to low calorie diets which include (nutrient density, high fat [variation], low fat, low carb) diet theories in which in the overwhelming majority of them the calories are pretty much below 3,500.

Then there is the moderate to high calorie diets which include (high protein, Parillo, high fat [again – variation], high carb etc.) diet theories.

I’m going to be blatantly honest here so bear with me. If you want to stay fairly lean (let’s say optimally lean – that’s better description) and in a genuinely easy diet concept to follow – all along building muscle along the way (not optimally though), then you should probably be one of the diets in the first group. You have to do what makes you happy and a lot of you won’t be happy being a little plump even though you will be A LOT bigger muscle wise.

As a lot of you know, what looks good on paper doesn’t always play out well in real life. And more than anywhere else diet theories which even in my discerning eyes look good on paper – definitely don’t play out well in the gym. I must repeat this. You must think this put and decide what makes you happy. I don’t want you guys coming back and saying, “Those f*** guys at H.M. made me fat! Yea, I’m a lot bigger but I’m fat!” I ain’t gonna deal with it. (How’s that for some slang.) (My grandmother, the English teacher, would kill me.) So now I ‘m going to state some facts outside the science/paper arena – that I have seen happen in real life. I’m willing to bet that when you guys think about it, you will come to the same conclusions I have.

A) I have never seen a juiced bodybuilder taking in about 3000 calories a day; go beyond the gains of what ONLY the use/abuse of the sauce has let him gain.

A1) I have seen juiced bodybuilders who took in a tremendous amount of calories get muscle gains and thickness at the fastest rate possible, and so beyond the 3000 calorie/nutrient dense bodybuilders that there isn’t even a close comparison. And don’t even try to argue, “Well it looks like it because they are holding more Bodyfat.” True but when these guys come down in weight there is so much more muscle!

B) I have never seen a natural bodybuilder who tried to stay lean year-round, put on a dramatic increase of muscle size. If you added up all their brutally hardcore workouts, there is no way in HELL that 2 – 4 LBS – at the most, (I’ve seen 0 LBS) in a year is worth it!

B1) I have seen natural bodybuilder who make tremendously huge gains in bodyweight between contests, (and takes a lot of verbal abuse for it) come in and crush the competition continually because they gain 10 – 15 LBS of muscle under that fat every year. Natural Powerlifters absolutely crush natural bodybuilders in contest decisively. Why? Off-season bulkup!

C) Correction – I have seen genetically gifted African-American bodybuilder make gains no matter what the hell they do! And rarely a genetically superb Caucasian bodybuilder too! Nine-eight percent of you reading this aren’t in those groups so keep reading.

C1) I guarantee you – GUARANTEE! - that somewhere right now, there is a natural bodybuilder right now reading this who is pissed off and say it is bull****. This guy trains incredibly hard, eats incredibly clean, uses the best supplements religiously and stays lean and muscular year-round. Don’t try to argue with him, because he is set in his ways – that’s how natural guys (and some juicers too) are. They are right and you are wrong. They are the most holier-than-thou experts around. I only have one thing to say – check the scale! You weighed 188 three years ago and now you weigh 190?!?! Great – by 2005 you will weigh 200 LBS! CASE CLOSED! Two hundred and eight workouts in a year for a measly pound of muscle!

D) Shawn Ray, Tony Pearson, Porter Cottrell, Lee Labrada, Mike Ashley, Robby Robinson – these are examples of some bodybuilders who stay lean year-round – and there are some very big guys here and also some very good bodybuilders (Ray, Labrada), but honestly how much improvement in muscle mass do you see from year to year?!?! Not that much.

D1) Dorian Yates, Nassir El Sonbaty, Dave Fisher, Lee Priest, Chris Duffy, Michael Francois. Here are some great and middle of the road bodybuilders too. But all these guys do pound the food and get bigger every year. Especially the first four! Yates, Sombaty and Fisher are all over 30 or close to it. They have been lifting for over 10 years and are gaining big time muscle still. There are some non-wealthy bodybuilders in both groups so don’t be ignorant and say
E) Is this bodybuilding or should it be called,” bodyleaning” because it seems to me that is where all the new diets are leading to in my eyes. The compromising of extreme muscle gains for the general fear of being fat. I want you to ask yourself this – How long does it take to build extreme muscle size? I would say 5 – 15 years in my opinion. --- How long does it take to lose Bodyfat once you have reached the huge muscle size you want? 3 – 5 months?!?! You tell me what the focus should be on. A friend reminded me of something. There are models and strippers out there that take a lot of steroids (some on the level of chronic abuse) who train hard, eat really clean because they have to stay lean for their job and yet – they look the exact same year after year after year. When they first started using steroids – yes they looked better – but they hit that plateau fairly quick and stayed there.

Do you see my point yet? What is your goal? Is it to be extremely big or extremely lean? If there is a 175LB bodybuilder out there who wants to weigh 235 with 8% Bodyfat and thinks he will accomplish that with 2800 calories and nutrient density – man you are really fooling yourself! It will not happen! I promise you. In four years time you just might weigh 195LBS. If you went ahead and used illegal steroids you might make it to 215LBS. But honestly, do you know the quickest way there? – Bulking up to 285lbs would get you there. Yes, you would probably be pretty fat and not happy about being fat but when you came down, you weigh 230 – 235LBS! And be very happy. A sacrifice to get to your final goal. --- The people who tout low calorie diets (I’m putting them down – I respect them) are their main objectives to keep lean or to build muscle? Read into that please. The examples of themselves and the students they give – Was most of the muscle they have now from past bulking diets? Of course they look better now – they are lean! But was the muscle from bulking up?!?! Yes it was most of the time.

Do you know what I consider the hardest thing in bodybuilding? Oh yeah, the training and dedication is hard – but to continually pound down 6 meals a day on a continual basis is the utmost of chores and dedication. I don’t miss meals. Ahh that’s too easy – I don’t miss meals to the best of my ability…. OK.

So this is where you have to ask yourself – what are my ultimate goals and what is the happiest way I can get there? Do I want to stay extremely lean and maybe compromise some muscle gains? If I bulk up, will the negative people who wait at every chance to say, “Getting kind of fat,” affect me? Will society keep me from what I truly want to accomplish? See, I admire Dorian and Nassir because they are driven. You will never see those two with a tucked in dress shirt on in the off-season, they are bulked up chubby if you like. But they know what kind of muscle they want to put on and don’t give a **** what anyone else says on the way there. Dorian caught a lot of flak on how he looked at the Night of Champions at roughly 300LBS. So what? Did you see what he looked like at the 95 Olympia? DOMINATED is the word.

Segway; I personally think Parillo got a bad rap. I don’t agree with his basic what to eat theories – but I do think he has some ideas that could be put to use. Let’s start this first – I don’t care what crap you read that bodybuilders only need 1.3 grams of protein per kilogram. Bulls**t! Look at some of the recent studies that pertain to bodybuilders that lift very heavy and very intense. Not fitness bodyshapers….OK! Four grams per kilogram of bodyweight is a good goal to shoot for. Actually shoot for the protein content of the bodyweight you want to weigh…i.e. 260LBS = 354 to 472 grams of protein a day. 300LBS = 409 to 545 grams a day. Second of all you are going to have to decide which way you are going to go (a) moderate/high carbs and varying fats or (b) high fat and low carb diet – Duchaine and Dipausquale diet. The big problem everyone has with high carb diet is that with the high carbs comes an onset of high insulin which will – yes tend to put on the body fat (Lipogenesis). But that is not all bad because insulin also pushes nutrients (amino acids) into the muscle cells and there is nothing wrong with that. But when these nutrients stores are filled, this is where a lot of Bodyfat is laid down on the body. So it is a catch 22 situation. The extra bodyfat could probably give you a little leverage in some movements. But this is not what I think most diet experts are looking at. They look at insulin from a leanness perspective instead of its benefits of pushing nutrients into the muscle cells.

The problem with higher carb bulking diets is that you can get very groggy and sleepy especially after a very high carb meal. It comes from an on rush of insulin and the release of a chemical in the brain – serotonin (especially when nutrient/carb stores in the muscle are saturated already). So there are good points and bad points to high protein – moderate to high carb diets.

People with superb metabolisms can benefit greatly from them in the way of superb muscle gains if they can put up with the groggy episodes that will affect them from time to time. Others who decide to go this route with lesser metabolisms either put up with the extra bodyfat or realize that when the time comes they will take it off or perform aerobic work to keep their bodyfat levels in check. But you must realize that yes, aerobics will let you have a high density/high nutrient/calorie diet but it also is an additional stress on the body that can catabolize muscle if over done. This is where I thought Parillo had some nice ideas as far as aerobics done only for ½ hour at a time morning and night. I would think that on training days only the morning session (if that) would have to be done. Better yet, my opinion would be only doing the aerobics on off training day if you feel you have to do them. To be totally honest, people who take steroids are probably not going to have to do much aerobically because anabolics have a slight thermogenic effect and also they will be in such such superior muscle building situation that most gains (initially at least – not long term) will be in the way of muscle, not bodyfat. With receptor sites saturated and slower muscle gains, bodyfat will accumulate. Many add clenbuterol to bulking diets to keep bodyfat at minimum. Phenformin, Metphormin, and Vanadyl Sulfate work extremely well for most people on high carb diets. They mimic insulin in a way – driving glycogen into the muscles. In theory this should make you “fuller” looking and have less glucose left over to be transformed into triglycerides – stored bodyfat. A word to the wise – Metphormin and Phenformin are very strong drugs so use them with caution. If you are not insulin deficient to some degree I would stick to Vanadyl Sulfate. You know everyone and his mother argues how high calorie diets don’t work and their big point is the bodyfat. But I have yet to see someone disprove that it is the fastest way to put on muscle! Yes it put on bodyfat, but there are ways to control that pretty much aerobically if someone is really serious about putting on size. I look at someone like Michael O’Hearn (Natural USA Champ) who has to stay fairly lean now because of work, but was a serious powerlifter and has been up to 285LBS or so, that’s about 60LBS over his bodybuilding weight.

There are a lot of excesses in this sport and I personally believe that the body is an incredible adaptive machine – and if there is a tremendous demand (brutal heavy workouts0, the body will not just store every single excess calorie as bodyfat, but will adapt itself into a greater and greater musculature. Before you debunk this, think back through history of how man has adapted and evolved. The command (heavy weights) has to be there, no doubt. Think about the Sumo study that we talked about in issue six. The Sumo wrestlers had greater lean body mass than the bodybuilder. How? They hardly weight train, but their caloric intake is a lot higher. What would happen if the Sumo‘s both weight trained and kept their bodyfat in check with daily morning and night aerobics? You tell me! The only difference in that equation was food intake.

I am not saying that the nutrient density/low calorie diets don’t work, not at all! They work- they are great at keeping off excess bodyfat and slowly building muscle at the same time. I think they are great for businessman/fitness person. But for an extremely hardcore bodybuilder trying to build up mass to intimidating proportions, I really think you have to goad your body into believing it has to adapt to a bigger musculature. 2700 calories tells it to stay midsize, 6000 – 10000 calories tells it something else – and in my opinion that something is get much bigger by storing bodyfat and a bigger musculature. Yes, the musculature is a slow adaptation and the bodyfat a fast one, but I feel the muscle adaptation is far greater than it is from the low calorie diets. And we have talked about how to keep the control of bodyfat with aerobics. I didn’t say it was easy or simple. But if your body won’t gain bodyfat at 2800 calories a day, why the hell do you think it will gain any muscle – which is so much harder to do!

I’ve mentioned the high protein/moderate to high carb diet. I’m going to skip Parillo because I don’t personally agree with all his dieting theories (Sorry John). But the other high calorie diet that I think is very worthy of mentioning is the high fat diet that both Dipausquale and Duchaine have worked on. Dipausquale has been king of vague with his theories somewhat on his diet, but I do believe Duchaine is going to be much more precise with his. He told us that. Both bulking diets I’ve talked about recommend red meat as a main cog in the diet. I agree totally. The creatine and amino acid pool in red meat is very beneficial. The high fat goes something like this – 5 days high fat (Monday thru Friday)/carbs kept under 30 grams a day each of those days/ roughly 55-60% fat, 30-55% protein and 5–8% carbs. On the weekend there is a 2 day carb load where the breakdown is 30-40% fat, 10 -15% protein, 45-60% carbs. So during the week, samples of food you can eat are – steak, sausage, bacon, ham, eggs, pork, chicken, lamb, veal, kielbasa, (no-carb) protein drinks, etc…

During the weekend pretty much anything goes and you can carb up to your hearts content. I know what some of you are thinking or have been programmed to think! That this diet is dangerous because fats are dangerous, not altogether true!

The principles and theories behind this diet are extremely sound. Without the chronically elevated insulin levels of the high carb diet comes less stored fat. OK here it is laid out. You carb up over the weekend, and your body uses the stored glycogen in the muscle for energy during Monday and Tuesday (varying), and then switched over to using free fatty acids and bodyfat as energy when the glycogen stores are gone. The free fatty acids are broken down to from the high fat diet and triglycerides (stored bodyfat) are broken down to free fatty acids and then to ketones – an energy source. In a sense, stored bodyfat acts as glycogen and the free fatty acids as glucose. Lowering the calories uses more bodyfat as energy. To gain mass, a higher calorie intake is taken in. This diet looks to be right up the natural bodybuilder’s alley. And I urge you to either buy Dipausquale’s book or Duchaine’s book when it comes available. There is too much info to summarize Dipausquales book here. It is called Anabolic Diet – 50 bucks or so. Some of the Hardcore Muscle’s readers have been giving me feedback on the high fat diet and most of them that stuck to it – think it is a godsend! If your body doesn’t metabolize carbs very well and you have been stuck for a couple of years with minimum gains – give this a try will you?!?!

There is only one problem I have with the high fat diet. I wonder with only manipulating insulin on weekends, if there is any loss of benefit during the week of not having insulin driving amino acids into muscle cells. Something tells me Dan Duchaine, being the problem solver that he is – will have some sort of solution to this in his diet. Basically my opinion is this – you have 30 grams of carbohydrates to play with during the weekdays. Obviously the best way to utilize them would be to do so on training days right after a workout where your body would be most insulin-receptive. Half a cup of grape juice (the rest water) in a no carb protein drink (would have only 17grams or carbs) could probably do some good and still give you 13 grams of carbs to play with the rest of the day.

I’m not so sure that some sort of insulin spike (in an after workout scenario on the Wednesday, Thursday, Friday – high fat/no carb days) would prove to be harmful. I’m talking about only on workout days, of those 3 days. Something in an allowance over 30 gram consisting of Duchaine’s prior recommendation of juices and ion exchange whey powder, a whopping dose of it! But that would bring you over 30 grams of carbs. On the high fat diet, you would definitely have to supplement multivitamins to ward off any chance of deficiencies anywhere. In theory, if you kept strict on this diet – it would be less likely to acquire an abundance of bodyfat – even when bulking. But as in the other high calorie diet – you might have to include some aerobics if the bodyfat levels start getting over the level you have set for yourself. The downside to this diet is it can get very monotonous eating the same meats day after day. That is why you have to make a concerted effort to change things up. Chicken wings, scrambled, poached, boiled eggs, steak, marinated with different marinades, pork chops, etc. Remember condiments and marinades have a lot of hidden carbs. People who are very sinewy, very muscular and have trouble putting on muscle could take their choice of these two diets and benefit from either one of them. African Americans and some taller whites are usually in that group. Others would likely have to keep a check on the bodyfat with very slight aerobics. Some lead a very active lifestyle (work, play) and can keep that extra fat off. Endomorphs will really have to work hard with aerobics because they will really push the fat levels up. That is your genetic blueprint, I’m sorry.

In this sport, both you and I know people who train hard and heavy. There are so many bodybuilders out there now it’s incredible. Go to your gym and count the people who lift hard. Now go thru all those people and think how many have gotten continually bigger over the years (including yourself). How many plateaus do you see? Most of those people are eating 2300 – 3000 calories a day. Are you one of those people who blindly thinks he is growing but then 10 years later looks back and realizes that thru all those years and all those workouts (the time put in) that you really are exactly same?!?! What a waste. Don’t take no for an answer. The body is an adaptive machine. Force that mother to adapt. Strength is size. To be a 250LB bodybuilder you are going to have to eat like one and train like one. A 250LB bodybuilder who wants to be a 280LB bodybuilder will not get there if he eats 2500 calories. He has to eat his way up to 280LBS. Muscle is a hard-to-come by commodity. To get fat is pretty easy. You know how to control that fat – it will range from no aerobics to ½ hour aerobics, morning and night 6 times a week. In 4 years from now do you want 4 more pounds of muscle or 30-45LBS more muscle? I’m a bodyBUILDER, the choice is easy for me. I hope you reread this article and really look at the examples and comparisons I cited. It comes down to what makes you happy. In my eyes at least, a hardcore bodybuilder’s main emphasis is on muscle (hard work, strength, and dedication) and a secondary emphasis on body fat. Some people will put an emphasis on bodyfat and a secondary emphasis on muscle. If you take genetics and drugs out of the equation, how would you – the trainer – answer the following question?

“I’m 180LBS and I want to be 280LBS.” “I want to gain muscular size at the quickest, fastest rate possible all the while keeping my bodyfat at a satisfactory level. There is a million dollars in it for you if you can do it in 6 years or less.” What would you have to have him do to get him there?!?! ME? – This guy would never miss a meal, get to know a treadmill on a regular basis and be a rest pausing maniac. And I would have a million in 5 years, not six!

Should I Feel Sorry?

2011-05-04T12:57:00.003-04:00

I don't know why some of these guys that sponsor guy or "say they do" always try to come back with these stories that they were fucked over, taken advantage of, or used. Here is a convo I had with a guy that has been talking to me for at least 3 years and he either initiates the convo or I just inquiring on how he is doing with the guys that he has. (NOTE: He has helped these guys for year)

I logged in on a site I frequent and I got a hello from him. Here is how the convo went.

-------------------------
bbsponor - Hey there!

MusclePotential - Good to see ya on this site I thought they were supposed to launch it but have not seen that yet

bbsponsor - thanks man i only found it two days ago

MusclePotential - yeah been here for a while think your the firs person looking to sponsor

bbsponsor - really wow

MusclePotential- Yeah

bbsponsor - yeah i might get back into it man but the other two guys messed me about a lot so it kinda hurt me

MusclePotential - that sucks you choose them

bbsponsor - yeah they were ok at the beginning

MusclePotential - sorry to be harsh but sponsors choose guys they want to help then drop them

bbsponsor - yeah for sure but i didn't drop them they fucked me over

MusclePotential - if you continue to let it go you choose to let it go see if i sponsored

bbsponsor - after i paid them a lot of cash

MusclePotential - if they don't grow then they get nothing else. i told ya long time to drop them but you kept saying you wanted to help

bbsponsor - i know man.... your right I'm wrong

MusclePotential - no right or wrong. you chose what you chose

bbsponsor - true

MusclePotential - i just know what i want out of my sponsor. i want to grow for them.
I find that sponsors really don't want guys that grow, they will help people that aren't really looking for same thing. so hard to find a guy that wants a real bodybuilder.

bbsponsor - I'm sorry i think that man

I can't feel sorry for people like this. If you choose to help those that aren't giving you want you want and YOU choose to continue to help them that falls on you. They didn't take advantage of you then you choose to let yourself be used.

You had someone like me that really needed help but he told me that he HAD to stick with these guys every time we talked. So either there were never guys and the story is changing to make it that way or he choose people that never produced and he got what he choose. What do you think?

Working on the site! - Camming

2011-05-02T16:19:00.000-04:00

Ok think I found a better and cheaper camming software for the site. I been looking for a software that will record everything in the chat so if members miss a show they can watch and see everything they missed. With the new software everything I have been looking for is included at about half the price and less confusion on billing.

I had been using VideoWhisper its a good software but to complicated and cumbersome. They are not customer service friendly and all the extras I was looking for are extra add in packages which cost more. Then you have to pay for the software and hosting server for the program. It was just to much and there billing was all separate. It seemed good at first but had trouble sometimes connecting. Members had issues connecting. This new one from Adobe seems just what I need.

It's very user friendly. It will let people that miss shows see EVERYTHING they missed from questions asked by members typed on screen to audio all available immediately after show is done.

I will be continuing to test this and see how I like it so far so good.

Working on the site!

2011-05-02T11:33:00.002-04:00

I been teaming up with Flashrob.com to get my site back up and running and moved my hosting server over to GoDaddy. I really needed the site modified and working better then it was before and bring some of the cost down as well.

Waiting on the first draft of the site right now. I am looking at new web cam conferencing software and few other aspects of the site. I really hope to have it up and running for you guys soon.

Wise Fable.....

One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well.
The animal cried piteously for hours as
the farmer tried to figure out what to do.

Finally, he decided the animal was old, and the
well needed to be covered up anyway;
it just wasn't worth it to retrieve the donkey.

He invited all his neighbors to come over and
help him. They all grabbed a shovel and began
to shovel dirt into the well. At first, the
donkey realized what was happening and cried
horribly. Then, to everyone's amazement he
quieted down.

A few shovel loads later, the farmer finally
looked down the well. He was astonished at what
he saw. With each shovel of dirt that hit his
back, the donkey was doing something amazing.
He would shake it off and take a step up.

As the farmer's neighbors continued to shovel
dirt on top of the animal, he would shake it
off and take a step up.

Pretty soon, everyone was amazed as the donkey
stepped up over the edge of the well and
happily trotted off!

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds
of dirt. The trick to getting out of the well
is to shake it off and take a step up. Each of
our troubles is a stepping stone. We can get out
of the deepest wells just by not stopping,
never giving up! Shake it off and take a step up.

Remember the five simple rules to be happy:
Free your heart from hatred - Forgive.

Free your mind from worries - This is the most tricky one.

Live simply and appreciate what you have.

Give more and share positivity with the world

Claudias Muscle Talk INTERVIEW

2011-04-28T16:33:00.002-04:00

I like to thank Blue Blake and Claudia for getting me on her show. It took us a bit but I am glad we got it done. I am glad to promote her show and can't wait to go on again and talk more about training and nutrition.

For those that missed it here it is:

Listen to internet radio with Claudias Muscle Talk on Blog Talk Radio

What do people see?

2011-04-26T22:30:00.002-04:00

I always hear, "you have such great potential.", "You look like your a pro.", "You going to make it to pro easy." I hear these thing so much, but what does it mean, what are people seeing?

I think I have potential, but it seems at times the people that matter don't see it. I got a great compliment from a natural pro bodybuilder at my gym today. He said he has been watching me over the last few weeks that I have been at gym. He says that I am really developing nicely. He thinks I am probably the biggest guy in gym. I know he was kinda serious because he is that type of person.

But at same time when i talk to other people like photographers and such.. They are completely opposite. They say I lack it and not what there looking for.

So what are people seeing, same person but different reactions, both in fitness industry but none can agree what they see is good?

What do you see when you see me?

2011-04-23T13:50:00.003-04:00

I don't get people, they talk crazy but never want to show you any help with anything. I am supposed to believe you that you want to help when you won't even buy a cam show, or when you say you want to meet and never follow through. But then I get conversations like this on yahoo.

musclepotential - hi
terry.ellis99 - hi guy
musclepotential - how u been
terry.ellis99 - Life is good.
terry.ellis99 - how is training and competition.
musclepotential - training is ok, no comps no help
terry.ellis99 - no comps no help?
musclepotential - yeah no competitions
terry.ellis99 - Oh, okay.
musclepotential - no help
terry.ellis99 - what does no help mean?
musclepotential - sponsor
terry.ellis99 - hehe. i have been telling you for over a year to date a successful muscle slave like me.
musclepotential - not looking to date
musclepotential - but just own
terry.ellis99 - ha!
terry.ellis99 - i wish!
terry.ellis99 - what i would not do to be owned by a man like you...
musclepotential - lol i guess
musclepotential - wish i could find some that wants it in reality
terry.ellis99 - fuck! i would live for a man like you. 24/7.
terry.ellis99 - waiting on you hand and foot, fixing your meals and managing your diet, massaging you, managing your web and social media stuff.
terry.ellis99 - fucking living for your success.
musclepotential -
musclepotential - sounds nice
musclepotential - but its not real
terry.ellis99 - i do not know why you say that. i have been so serious in every one of my convos with you.
terry.ellis99 - i am the real deal.
musclepotential - yeah but i not looking to move and date
musclepotential - that’s why it’s not real
terry.ellis99 - i would consider moving, if you were REALLY looking to own.
musclepotential - but i not looking to live with someone
terry.ellis99 - Okay.
terry.ellis99 - I wish you all the best, Aaron.
terry.ellis99 - You're a hot man.
terry.ellis99 - Have a great weekend.
musclepotential - no problem
musclepotential - everyone wants to live
musclepotential - i don’t do good with living with people
musclepotential - why i moved out of my family house
terry.ellis99 - well, with a complete sub, you would obviously set the rules. he'd live how you wanted him to live. at your feet when you wanted, but away when you told him to.
musclepotential - i know i understand but that is something you have to work too i guess
musclepotential - i have friends that have heard people talk like that but never come through
musclepotential - people need to show there selves
terry.ellis99 - Well, I have been trying for a year+. The only one not letting me "show themselves" is you.
musclepotential - huh?
musclepotential - I still training and doing my thing
musclepotential - i competed last year in 2 shows
terry.ellis99 - You keep saying people never flake and never follow through. Yet, you have never given me the chance to follow-through.
musclepotential - i have
musclepotential - For me if your looking to help a bodybuilder you need to start helping me
terry.ellis99 - Aaron, I have not even met you.
musclepotential - you don’t have to meet me you can buy cam show you can show an interest like someone that is interested
musclepotential - to me people that just want to move in together are setting realistic things bound to fail because the truly don’t know what it takes to grow and be own by a bodybuilder
musclepotential - i not saying for 1000
musclepotential - i am saying show real interest, i never met you but you want to move in
musclepotential - that to me makes no sense
terry.ellis99 - Man, I never said I wanted to just move in.
terry.ellis99 - I said I wanted to get to know you and see if there is a match there.
musclepotential - i agree
musclepotential - but you never take interest
terry.ellis99 - Forget it. You have a really creative memory. I have been SO aggressive with you in the past. It is always YOU who just sorta fades away once it comes time to make plans.
terry.ellis99 - Your delusional, man.
terry.ellis99 - Later.
musclepotential - ever fade away i am always online
musclepotential - but its cool
musclepotential - i deal with people that really want to help and talk and grow me
musclepotential - not just talk
musclepotential - i don’t know what i am creative memory about
musclepotential - you say you want to help but where is that part of it.. You don’t offer anything i offered camming and meeting in past and you never followed through
musclepotential - where did i sorta fade away
musclepotential - i used to call you
musclepotential - your the one that left and faded so be real with the fact not delusional here just not into games with people

All I hear is big talk, I do what I need to do which is train and grow. If your looking to help... then help and let the relationship grow but don't say that I lose interest, I eat sleep and breathe this.

I hate big talk with no action.

What do you think if I you were going to help a bodybuilder the fact that there training and doing what they need to do is first step. Don't you think the sponsor needs to show there real other then talking big?

2010-05-18T18:44:00.002-04:00

Ok I am hoping that the webmaster finishes his setup so I can open today. It is already 6:30 and wanted to do some advertising, but I can't do that till the site is actually up and running. I am very excited.

I have decided this being its grand opening I will be doing free cam chat for all!

This way I will be able to give everyone a chance to see what they are in store for! They will not be like private shows and not like members more of a talk and chat. and some light posing for you all.

I space is limited first come first serve. This is a new site so the bandwidth is limited till we grow big enough to handle more :D

I will be posting the link you will need to go to to view the show soon. I hope to see you all there!

I encourage you all to join the fourm on the site. This is where I will be moving the blog too.. I will be posting link to the blog here but you will ultimately have to join to read them. I am sorry but I am trying to consolidate all my stuff to the site and I feel the forum will be best place. There you will be able to comment read, and even post you own blog and gallery!

Hey everyone the Poll has closed and the "NO BEARD" has won... It was a very close race, but the No beard took the lead with 2 votes!

So I will be taking it off (may leave a bit of stubble) and go from there...

I have had a great weekend and hopefully this week will be even better if the site gets launched and full up and operational.

I also had a great time reconnecting with some people that I haven't chatted with in a while. Always good to see a familiar and friendly screen name pop up and say HI!! It was really good to catch up and see what was going on and for them to see who training has been going for me as well!

I am going to be working on getting the chat and some other things finished up on the site today! I know it has been sometime but I am really making this a good site from GO, seen to many sites that aren't what they said they would be and never added what they wanted. I know what I want and will do what I have to make it the BEST!!

Well my IM is always on say Hi, and if I don't answer might be away or busy. I will try to get back to you as soon as i can.

YOUR MUSCLE BOUND FRIEND,

AARON

THANK YOU!!

2010-04-28T05:58:00.000-04:00

I like to just say THANK YOU to David! He has been a good friend over the last year to me and yesterday paid my contest entry fee into the 2010 Musclemania Universe Fitness Weekend.

Some of you may know how expensive bodybuilding is from food, gym, tanning, and supplements; not to mention the cost of prep, entering shows and travel. I am very thankful for the friendship and support from David. It is one less burden I have to try to figure out and leaves me free to concentrate more on the task at hand - CONTEST PREP!!!

I still am trying to raise money for the hotel expenses and other contest prep needs. I really am trying to get all this together in next few weeks as I am now 8 weeks out from Musclemania. If anyone would like to donate there is a donation link here on my blog. Anything you can help with counts!

I am also happy to let you know that I have purchased the cam software for MusclePotential.com . I think you guys will love it really simple no software to download but just have flash installed on your computer. No more Skype or Yahoo screwing up. I will be holding weekly chats for all paid members of the site, and also will still be doing PRIVATE cam sessions. It will now all happen through MusclePotential.com. I am trying to get though a HD cam to make the shows much better for you guys.

The cam below is the cam I am trying to get to make shows so much better for you guys?

Microsoft LifeCam Cinema WebCam, 720p HD Widescreen, Autofocus for Desktop

If anyone can help me get this I will give them a 6 months free on MusclePotential.com. TRUST ME IT WILL BE SO WORTH IT!! I have this item and some of my other contest prep item needs listed on my AMAZON WISH LIST. All items on list are things I need for prep, other than posing suits (if you wish to help me with that contact me directly), I am only giving 6 months free for whoever gets the HD Webcam, I will do free shows for the other items.

I again thank some of you in advance for you generous and supportive spirit. I only do better as I get more help so I can put my best foot forward. I want to do you all proud and know that I have a great fan/friend/support network behind me.

I can't wait to launch the site for you and have some great talks in the chatroom, let you get to know me more in the forum, and even see more of me in the web cam session. It is my pleasure and honor to keep you all updated, and hope as I grow so will my site, and support from you all!!

YOUR MUSCLE BOUND FRIEND,

AARON

MUSCLEPOTENTIAL.COM!!

2010-04-23T00:54:00.001-04:00

Ok EVERYONE!!! Its starting to come together I saw some of the layout and really liking it! Just a few more touches to go as we get more things set in stone. But I am really happy to see it all coming together. I am so excited. Everyday last few days I been working on the site with the webmaster and getting closer to being done.

On another note I have a question for everyone:

My beard... I have gotten a lot that like and a lot that don't so I am putting it up in a poll now!

On the right hand side you will see a Poll just vote and In few weeks will post the results!!

I want to know what you all think I should do?

Poll will be open for a while as I also want to do a vid about it as well lol... We'll see what happens with it.

Just a short Howdy to all my cam show regulars. I really want to thank you for supporting, and let you know that I can't wait to show you all the new on site live web cam services that will be on WWW.MUSCLEPOTENTIAL.COM. I hate yahoo and skype, Only got to go online no extra software needed and you will be good to watch the show.

I am trying to get the money right now together for a HD Webcam so the shows will also be much better quality when the site is up and ready. If anyone is willing to get one for me, I will give them free membership to the site for 6 months when it is up and ready!! I really want to make this site a place that you all will love to come and see progress, results, and quality.

As always,
THANK YOU!!!

PEACE

This is for my buds...

2010-04-21T05:48:00.000-04:00

I just love when people try to preach to you what you are doing wrong when there life is "SO" perfect that they MUST tell you how to live yours. I tell you right now you need haters and Kat Williams Put it best:

I know its frustrating but WHY let it get to you... WHY EVEN BOTHER!!! JUST LET THEM HATE...

I got this great comment on my Youtube video the other day. On my 14 weeks out video I got a this comment

2mariebl Try not to smile so much

First off smiling is something I always do and second.. Why should I look mad. I was kinda annoyed but less then a minute later i got this IM

a**********o i also liked your smile. smiling people look like they have a good attitude and enjoy what they r doing

I was like I know the world balances it self out when you really need it too... People are put here to test you and see what you are made of. You got to know your on strength and understand what YOU are made of before you can really help or show others anything.

I think some of my friends that REALLY know me will tlll you I am nice, but I can also be the evilest ass there is. I been this way so long even in elementary school I just lived my life... I am me and always me... I don't change for know one. I enjoy my friends, fans, and support I get, but if you want to hate go ahead, just makes me work harder and want to show you what I am really made of.

For some of you this past week has been a trial (literally for some) of you. But you all got to learn, YOU ALL NEED TO BE YOU!! IF YOU AREN'T YOU KNOW ONE ELSE IS GOING TO BE YOU!!

MY FAVORITE QUOTE(actually have it on my wall so when I wake up every morning I can see it):

Work as if you don't need the money, Love as if you never been hurt, Sing as if no one is listening, and Dance as if know one is watching!

NOW ANY OF MY PEOPLE WHO KNOW ME YOU KNOW I LIVE BY THIS CLIP!!!!!!:

I Love you all my dudes and dudettes!! You all are so great to me and I thank you for being in my life. You all are special and need not to let the haters get to you because they will always be there, I know i got a few and I am always looking for more.

PEACE...

13 Weeks Out

2010-04-17T06:03:00.000-04:00

Hey every one.. Just a picture update... That time of the week.. I am just in from gym an hour cardio session after my workout and tired as hell. about to shower but wanted to get this done before I did because if I laydown might not get back up. LOL.

I am down to 245, but again still don't see any changes myself. just emailed pics to Alex. We'll see what he has to say in the morning once he gets them.

Here are a few of them to see as always you can check the rest out on Bodyspace.

Here is also a vid I didn't get to post in here yet but some of you might have seen on Youtube!!

Frustrated don't see changes

2010-04-15T05:19:00.000-04:00

I know lots of you think I look great and stuff, but I just a bit frustrated last few weeks don't really seen any changes in my physique at all... Alex and I have changed diet increased cardio and changed fat burners and still I just not seeing any changes.

I feel like I am stagnant and we keep trying different things to get some change to my physique. I think my lower half will be slow to come in but I am not seeing any changes at all now, and getting more and more frustrated by the day. I just don't know what else to do at this point. I guess I will wait to see what we come up with for this week after weigh in on Friday and Sunday night. He said he's not looking at the weight but how lean I am getting but I don't see either :-(

He is hoping to see me at 247 at least this week with the changes. I am pushing my self harder in cardio and strict as hell on the diet, so I am hoping I get there but not sure I will be from what i see in the mirror.

Anyway I just needed to rant for a bit before I turn in. I actually had a great workout tonight and overall I am happy with my muscle development, but I really need to lean out to show it and can't seem to get it.

BTW.. I forgot I had done a photo shoot back in Jan and got back the pics today. Here are a few of them:

Anyway I do have more but I am saving them for the website. I am also frustrated with that as well the guys from MuscleArt Studio or there other name Team4Fit. Are supposed to be working on it. I Im with them and email on occasion with them but they can never show me anything they have done or tell me soon. I have only spoken to one of his "interns" recently because they say the main guy has been in hospital. But still if he wants his business to keep going he needs to delegate better regardless. At least let people see what you are working on so they can feel safe, and happy with the work. If you want hit them up ask them what's goin gon with my site I know I do everyday maybe if some of the fans start email them now they will get th point WE WANT OUR SITE!!

Email MuscleArt Studio a this link: contact@muscleartstudio.com

A lil bit more about Me

2010-04-14T06:15:00.000-04:00

Well today was a good day nothing exciting per say. I will have update pics and a new vid up for you prob tomorrow on here. Hope to get some cam shows as well tomorrow. I really need to get my entry fees in for my shows soon. 12 weeks and 14 weeks out now!!!

But I got to have a good chat with one of my fav people. Some of you might know I also am a DJ and have been for some time. I have played in clubs in afterhours setting and opened as well for other DJ's. As of late though I been refining and working on my sound and getting my groove back. I have two sides to my music the one that is very happy and soulful and the other loves the dark beat! Both seem to coexist very nicely now and I am learning more to integrate the two.

I have finished a few new CD's a while back and passed them out at the Arnold and at local shows. I do edits for other bodybuilders for there posing routines as well. But I really love mixing and bringing the energy to the dancefloor. My fav person is DJ VIDAL he is one of my two music mentors and has been pushing me along for many years with my music. I had given him one of my new cd's I have a series called Patio to listen to and he was impressed. He love the song selection and flow. He knows I have been working on really listening and connecting to my music better and he can see it shows in this CD.

AS A SPECIAL TREAT FOR PEOPLE THAT FOLLOW MY BLOG. I WOULD LIKE TO GIVE YOU CHANCE TO GET a UNCUT VERSION OF PATIO 6.

Click here to DOWNLOAD CD

My DJ name is DJ APSolute. My Aunty YVES came up with that a very long time ago for me. Something I have always been happy to keep and still one of my biggest fans.

Well I hope you enjoy a a taste of APsolute work and please post your feedback here love to know what you think.

Weekend!!!

2010-04-10T06:39:00.000-04:00

Finally it is Saturday morning and just in from the gym. Killed back, chest, and forearms, and topped it with 40 mins of cardio at the end!! I weighed in at 249 this week but can see much more definition in my legs and upper back.

I do these blogs for myself, but also as a way to connect with you my fans, supporters, and friends. I thought not many read it but I am shocked more and more actually IM or email me about my postings...

I have to say this week I have started chatting with some really great people and nice to meet others that have been in the sport and other that are just loyal supporters. I know my trials and tribulations I go through in this sport will continue to be food for my blogs but at least I know there are nice people that I can always chat with and lend me an ear!!

Well just a quick post before i turn in and call it a night. I will be updating vids and pictures this weekend.

As always if interested in cam shows, special request vids, or looking to sponsor you can hit me up on yahoo - MusclePotential.

I am really looking for some help as i get closer to shows with tanning, entry fees, and hotel cost. If you are interested you can always help out by donating.

Anything helps and will keep me making more vids, getting better professional pics done, and keep me growing for you all!! I thank you all once a gian for being great fans, supporters, and friends

Aaron

NEED TO BLOW OFF SOME STEAM!!

2010-04-07T04:57:00.000-04:00

OK For most of you who chat with me and have got to know me, you know i am very calm and easy going... I don't get mad over things and usually let thing roll off my back like a water rolls off a ducks.

But today I am just pissed I tried to take it out on my workout and had a great workout but still I am annoyed and figured I might as well just vent here!!

Some of you know I am seeking sponsorship to help me in my goals of bodybuilding. I am very open and honest with people about what i want and where I want to go with this sport. You can tell by the results I put in that i am 100% dedicated and committed.

What I can't stand is when people tell me they are interested in sponsoring me and I take my time that i could be doing other things to get to know you a bit or even set up a meeting and you flake out on me!!! I have been in a situation lately where some has been very interested in helping me and they have been very persistent and talking and texting me. For me a sponsor is a valuable and honorable person that I would like to share my experiences and goals in bodybuilding with so they can help me achieve them. This person seemed like they were very on board with this idea.

They lived locally and set up a meeting a month or so ago and the same day when we were to meet something came up. I can understand that no harm things happen in life. I was very much willing to set up another time to meet up and try again. The following time I will be fair to say I had an issue, but i did have the common courtesy to let them know 2 days before hand that I would not be able to make it. AGAIN. things do happen that is life sometimes things can't be controlled.

We rescheduled once again and proceeded to keep in contact before we met talking and texting. A day or so before we are to meet I proceed to ask for info on directions and what not and not getting much response.. I am not stupid for some that is keen on meeting info should be exchanged. I continue to text up till wee hours since I workout late I was up to get info with no response. Then morning of I get this email (certain info has been deleted/modified to protect peoples identity:

Aaron - tonight is going to be tough - my friend called from was running this morning and blew out her knee - she is flying over to West Palm to see orthopedic doctor tomorrow . She will stay her have procedure tomorrow and return Wednesday.

My address is

I want to meet you more than anything - I assure you. However, I sort of had to make a snap decision when she called me this morning. I took the "chicken" way out in sending you an email rather than telephoning you...! Most certainly we can spend an entire day together the day of the competition that is here.

I certainly understand if you are just fed up - but things happen, and I am an honest and honorable person. Moreover, someone that comes to the aid of good friends. They have been my friend since college thus 20 years - I am compelled to help her in any way that I am able.

Hopefully this will not impact our ability to meet and enjoy each others company in the days to follow.

Best,

Now again things happen but I am getting annoyed now! Yes friends can be important but if you want to build a friendship with some else, this is not the way to start it out. Building trust and loyalty and knowing some is honorable and honest has to comes from them holding there word and keeping it to the person. Not just saying it!!

The following week there was a bodybuilding show in their area like 10 mins from there house I knew I would be attending all day and made plans as stated in their email that we could hang out that day. The even prior we had a long conversation about meeting up the next morning and going to the show and what not. As the next morning rolls around I get a text saying to go to the prejudging without them and to call when it is done and then we'll go to night show. I drove the hour or so to get to the show which was very good!! While prejudging was going on I received a text that they were now sick and were going to the doctors to see what was wrong.

I was like this person is a complete FLAKE! Even when I am in the area and have no excuses they come up with one. They text me later to tell me they had strep throat and would not be able to meet me AGAIN!!! BUT... they would like to show good faith and give me something to show that they are honorable. Since they had given me there address I drove over, but instead of at least meeting face to face and apologizing. I get envelope in mailbox and talk on the phone. I mean i know you might not feel great but take 2 mins come down don't even have to come in but say, "HI... sorry for this." NOPE couldn't do that either. It's great they were trying to show good faith but I not looking for handouts, I want someone that is real and will be there for me and really want to see my grow in bodybuilding! I was kinda pissed but I mean I was up there anyway for the show. Getting to know them was just a bonus, which turned out to be nothing at all..

At this point I am not holding my breathe to meet up and know the pattern. They were very reassuring that next time we will definitely meet! I was not really caring at this point but hey what is there to lose worst it will do i solidify the fact they are a flake. I text about our meeting and they originally said they couldn't but then said yes yes I want to do this even offered to mail me some to "HOLD' they day for them. I just said I don't want that I just want you to keep your word and not FLAKE OUT! They kept getting mad that I used the word FLAKE! They tried to tell me they runa successful business and what not and would be there if they flaked. I tried to tell them what you do in you professional life doesn't make you NOT A FLAKE. There are lots or professional people that have fucked up personal lives and can't do things right! That doesn't prove anything to me, what will prove to me you HONORABLE AND HONEST character is you doing what you say you will do. JUST MEET UP! Its not a hard thing to do if you are a real person and just want to be friends and start to get to know each other. That's all we have to do.

As I said they said they really wanted to meet this past Saturday and were changing plans to do so. I really didn't have high hopes in the meeting to tell you the truth. I knew "something" would happen. Always does every weekend we are to meet. And usually happens the morning of our meeting! WELL SURE ENOUGH THAT MORNING I WAKE UP TO A TEXT. (NOW I AM NOT COLD HEARTED... I HAVE FEELINGS AND EMOTIONS ) BUT.. I knew if i was going to get an excuse this time it had to be a good one.. AGAIN. I AM NOT SAYING ANYTHING IS NOT TRUE HERE!! ALL these events possible could have happened, but the point is that its just so SUSPICIOUS! WHAT WOULD YOU THINK?? ANY WAY AS I WAS SAYING.. I get a text telling me their sister was hurt and they had to fly out to see them. I responded back . I wish them well and hope everything is ok...

OK.. I did not care this happened not that i hope harm comes to any family member but I knew something would happen. I replied very open and honestly with best well wishes.

Yesterday afternoon I get a text:

My sister's funeral was this morning in ******. I will be flying back today. You amaze me that you truly only care for yourself ever. Sick

I was like WTF!! I felt bad their sister had passed but how am i selfish for wish you and your family well as that is the last thing I texted to them???

I texted back that I sent you well wishes and left you to be with you family at this time, how is this selfish? They replied because I had not test him further after that.

I said I am sorry they feel this way but after all these times of supposed meeting I don't have an connection to them, they have not built a friendship with me or anything so i am not making great investment of my time and their situations.

If they want a guilt trip on me I am sorry it won't work. I have feelings and care but I can't invest my emotions in every person I caht with. If we had met a few times maybe even ONCE!! I might have a bit more concern or care, but I don't I am sorry. I am truly sorry for the loss of life, but don't get mad or call me selfish because I didn't take time out of my life to keep track or your situation. I been trying for over a month to get better friendship with you and it is not going anywhere. I have tried on numerous occasions now. I am not selfish I am realistic and not playing mind games.

I know this is a hard burden on a family, but I am not the outlet that caused it. I have nothing to do with the loss of their sister. They didn't tell me anything of it till they sent that text and told me off at same time. If you wanted to tell me earlier I would have responded with sympathy, but that stil would have been it. Still would have left out any meeting or what not because it is not time or place to discuss it. I think my org reply and waiting for response when they are ready to reply is best thing to do when there is no real friendship/or association for that matter.

ANYWAY.. I am done I feel better. Some of you may agree with me some of you might not. I am not trying to piss them off with this either but I am mad that after all this time they want to try to throw it back on me. LIKE I DID SOMETHING WRONG!!! Comment let me know what you think??

Week 2 of Precontest & Post Arnold

2010-03-10T05:04:00.000-05:00

Hey guys sorry for not keeping up on my blog last few weeks have been a bit hectic.
I am about two weeks into my precontest diet, Alex is doing really good add got me on a program so far that i really like and seeing some good results!

Here are progress pics from when i first started the cut a few weeks ago...

I am going to be posting some new ones in few days as keeping up with blog much more... As i get further into training. AND YES!!! I will be doing some more vids soon. I been getting requests and need to do some!

SO I LIKE TO THANK ALL OF YOU I GOT TO MEET AT THE ARNOLD!!! REALLY LIKE TO THANK GARY AND BOB!! Was great meeting you and hanging for a bit. I hope to do it again soon! To my Facebook buds I finally met and got to hang with was a pleasure and hope you guys enjoy the music!!

here few pictures of the good time I had this year...

I had such a great time this year can't wait to do it again next year!! Shows like this always motivate me and push me even higher to make it to the TOP!! I can't wait to step on stage this year!!

We'll till tomorrow PEACE

New supps started... 6 days til prep!!

2010-02-15T19:38:00.001-05:00

I am feeling the excitement building as i drawer nearer and near to prep starting!! I just got in my supps from bodybuilding.com. I ordered USPLabs new fat burner - OXYELITE and MuscleMeds IGF-1 Optimizer - HEXAGEN.

I have already noticed that the Hexagen has been helping me sleep more. I have a hard time staying asleep i usually sleep 5 hr then wake back up no matter what time i go to bed. I just never stay asleep have to fight to go back to bed. Been on it two days now and actually slept almost 8 hrs each day! That to me is a noticeable change.

For the Oxyelite I just took first one this morning before morning cardio I will see how that effect me. It is supposed to be a different type of fat burner so I will see how i like it. So far not getting jittery or antsy on the 1 pill serving. I think Oxyelite in combo with my diet this year will be a great combo to getting me into the shape me and my coach are looking for.

So in few days will be getting some new pics and measurements for all of you that have been asking. I will also be camming more for those interested in getting private cam show hit me up on AIM or yahoo: MusclePotential.

As always thanks again for following and commenting. I always love to hear from you guys. TTYL PEACE

Countdown to the beginning!

2010-02-10T04:43:00.001-05:00

OK its all most time for the pre contest diet to start!! Ok so i am working my ass off to get tighter and leaner a bit before i start the actual diet. Talked with prep coach today. Feb 20 will be meeting up with him to sit down and see where we will begin at? I really been pushing hard these past 2 months and hoping to get a great starting weight for this diet. I really want 270lbs!!

I know you guys have been asking for pics or a video update soon soon soon!! LOL!! I know it has been some time. I rally just been sitting on it till i start prep because i will be doing more of them as you come along with me for the 20 week journey to Musclemania and Southern States!

OK happy thing!! Less than 1 MONTH TILL THE ARNOLD!! I been waiting like a kid out side a toy store for this weekend! Last year was a absolute blast, me and my training partner and roommate will be there again. Anyone else going this year?? I always like meeting some of the people I talk with online and grab a picture. (PROVE that i do exist... LOL) Plus its such a great place to get yourself motivated for the start of a great year!

I really hope to see some of you guys there..

Two things before i go: Let me know leave me comments if your going to the Arnold can try to say hi while I am there and also taking guess to the weight I will weigh in at this month. Hope to get some some good feedback.

Thanks again to all of you. I enjoy this so much and you guys really make it an even better experience for me!!

January is Over!!

2010-02-02T04:05:00.000-05:00

Well Jan is done and onto Feb! One more month before me and Alexander start my precontest diet for Musclemania and Southern States. I been busting my hump and hope all my efforts will show when he start working with me!

This past month I been really hammering away hard and some have told me I look much bigger other say I am looking leaner. Not sure but just hope to see some good numbers come Feb 27.

All I can do is so my best and hope for the best. I am sure it will be good. Just got to stay focused!

Like to thank the few supporters I have that donate to me monthly. I thank you guys so much for your help. Make my growth and progress a reality, I really want to show you a award winning physique and soon one day a PRO!

New posers came in this week, don't fit :-( back to the drawing board....

Ordered New Posers!

2010-01-28T16:32:00.000-05:00

Ok, ordered some new posers this week got two different kinds... I have 2 more suits I will order soon as well.

I figured maybe before contest time comes I will put a poll up and see which posers you guys think I should wear... I know you all have your opinion and think it will be a blast to see which one you guys chose.

As far as training goes. It has been very very productive. I know a few of you have been asking. YES it is supposed to be update pic time, but..... since I am going to start contest diet end of Feb. Your going to have to wait until then!

I will tell you I am getting good feedback from people around me. I am looking much fuller and leaner and still holding at about 270lbs so these are all good signs!

Anyway guys, I am out got to go eat and get something things done today! Hope you are all well!

Photo Shoot Day 1

2010-01-21T04:05:00.000-05:00

Well had a great day had the video photo shoot today. Was kinda weird not used to cameras still. I really did have fun though, the videographer was really cool and made it kinda easy. I am will be getting the edit video so I can up load it on to MusclePotential.com in the members section.

Get to go back tomorrow for still photos, and stuff really looking forward to that as well.

I like to thank all those that have been joining our yahoo group for Musclepotential.

Soon we will be updating that as well with information on the site as it becomes available. And also you can keep track on Bodyspace.

Well time to run for now I hope every one is well and will let you know how the photo shoot goes tomorrow. Wish me luck!!

Good week so far!!

2010-01-19T03:47:00.000-05:00

Haha yes I know its only Monday, but I have a lot set up for this week. On Wed and Thursday will be doing a video and photo shoot. Pics will be available on my website that is also starting to get set up this week as well. More info will be available at the Official MusclePotential Yahoo group . Join now!!

I am excited to get the site up and running over next few months. I already had some pictures take with Itkoff. A local photographer here in FL. Hope as year goes on I will be able to build my portfolio.

I been training harder then ever, and seeing the results. I will be taking new pics in another month for progress shots. I will also be heading to the Arnold Classic in Ohio as well.

This will be my second trip to the Arnold. Last year was my first trip and first PRO show! That was one of my most memorable moments in my life. I know already this year will be good as well.

Well time to rest and start some growth. Thanks for reading hope to hear from you soon!

Been a While!!

2010-01-10T04:23:00.000-05:00

Hey guys sorry for the long gap here in post... Been a busy holiday season. I hope everyone had a good holiday and a good new years so far!!

Well with the start of 2010 it also begins another competition season. This will be a full year this year. Got 2 shows at least and maybe another 2 after that as well depending if i can qualify for Nationals at the one I want too..

I am in the works to get my own website. There will be more on this later but there will be pics, videos, and forums. Some of site will be free and other will be for members.

I am hoping to have some of my buds to be on the site as well, so you can follow the path of a few people that want to step on stage and see where life takes us in the fitness industry.

Over next few weeks as things develop there will be more info coming. I hope to get some feedback from you guy/gals.

Anyway... This was my first week back to training after a two week layoff for full recovery before i started. This week was intense really hitting everything hard and trying to get as much growth as I can as I start adding more cardio and diet will start soon after as well..

I am hitting everything harder and more frequent now. I think will see some good results over next few months as I get ready to hit it harder once we enter full on pre contest assault.

For all those that haven't yet seen here are some pics from when I ended my bulk in Dec. I weighed in at 266.. did have a few days where i was 270 but on final weigh in didn't hit it.

I will be filling this blog out more often and hoping to get more feedback from you guys if you want to keep following like to hear from you as well!!

NATIONALS!!

2009-11-25T03:41:00.000-05:00

WOW this past weekend was the 2009 NPC Nationals. This was an amazing show I went to the prejudging on Friday and the evening show on Saturday. I have never seen so many HUGE guys in one place. I felt so small! I had a lot give me compliments but I still felt tiny.

I know that I have to push myself harder to really get more thickness and mass, if I want to compete with these monsters. This show really gave me a lot of motivation to push it harder and get the size I need to win!

I also met a lot of great people this weekend that I really hope to stay in contact with and get to know better. There are a lot of great bodybuilder in the National arena. A lot of them are PRO potential as they develop and grow.

Here are a few of the over 800 pics i took on this weekend. If you have me on Facebook http://www.facebook.com/MusclePotential, you can see the all the pics.

This is my time to PUSH!! This is my time to make my body learn to bend to my will! This coming year will be a GREAT YEAR! I will conquer my own limits and feel victory!

Great weekend and Monday!

2009-11-17T03:58:00.001-05:00

Just an update had a great weekend got to go to the NPC FL Gold Cup in West Palm Beach a natural show. It was a really good turn out. I get a chance to go to a really great Gold's Gym when I am up there. Great to train at other gyms, you can be an outsider.

Here are a few pics from the show:

Had a great back and tricep workout while I was there. Back is really coming along and triceps are really popping.

Tonight I hit the gym with a vengenace had chest, biceps, abs, and calves. Man repped out with 85's for incline flyes. Was insane, SUCH A CRAZY PUMP! I am getting very strong lately. Was a great superset workout for biceps again pump was great.

I am supposed to be doing pics sometimes this week. Now that I am not at Gold's gym, Preston and I are have a hard time meeting up so will be a bit till I can get my measurements. I hope to have them sometime this week though.

Amazing workouts

2009-11-12T03:59:00.000-05:00

Man the last 2 days have been some of the best workout I have had for biceps and triceps in quite a bit of time. The pumps have been really crazy. I been working very hard this offseason to bring up my arms and not sure I seen much change in them. I really wish they would grow more, but I can only work them hard and keep up the hard work. I am beginning to see(I THINK I AT LEAST)a peak forming.

Anyway We will see what happens as well when i start to cut. Progress pics will be in a few weeks and the goal is 270's this month. I am been working hard and think the results are paying off. Here are a few shots of my arms!

Fame International

2009-11-08T04:20:00.000-05:00

Just go in from the gym, had a great workout tonight. Hit HAMS, TRIS, and ABS! I always have great workouts after I go to show! I had a good time at the FAME show, first time seeing one of these shows. Very different then other show I have seen, or been part of, but it has it place in the bodybuilding world.

I go to meet a lot of great competitiors there and hope to keep in contact with them. I love going to shows it really keeps me focused on my training and lets me know what is out there and how much harder I have to work to get myself really ready for next years shows.

I am really amped about competing next year, I am seeing such great results with my training this offseason and hope that will be reflected when I step on stage in 2010.

Here is a new video I uploaded to Youtube a few days ago for some of you that missed it.

Here are some pics from the show of my buds I met...

If you got me on FACEBOOK can see tons more pics there. Also will be uploading the vids of routines on to my YOUTUBE PAGE as well in next day or so!

Allergies!!

2009-11-05T22:23:00.000-05:00

I hate allergies they knock ya down, but I don't let them keep me down. I just got to stay focused and keep going. Had some great workout this week so far. Seeing strength go up and feeling a lot harder.

I think I found a way to do more free cam chats. I hope to get some of you guys coming to chat and seeing what's up!

Quick note before gym today, hope all is well. Will drop another line later.

PEACE

Well today is the begining of my blog. I guess I will see how this goes. I am not one for talking muc (SHUSHH!!! ) But I will keep this short at least.

Some of you may know me, others of you will get to know me through this blog. I hope to get some feedback as I continue my journey through the world of Bodybuilding!
