Shout outs to the Young Brother building up his body on a budget.
Its ya man Orthodox, aka It's time to pay the bill.
I'm about to head off on a holiday break with my Queen, but before go and wait for her to get ready, I just wanted to leave you a message...
This message is not for a POWERLIFTER (Although it should be) but to avoid pointless, chatter and petty bickerng amongst ourselves, let me therefore clarify and direct this to the BODYBUILDER. The one who genuinely has a passion and strong desire, for wanting to build up his or her's own body. This message is to he or she, who generally cares for their body and what they are putting in it.
In truth i tell you that I just had to write this because I'm so tired of young kids, teenagers, even adults, coming up to me and asking, "Wow! What Protein shake or weight gainer do you use?"
For near on 20 years, its constant. Ther see my physique, my size and they automatically assume that I've been drinking that powdered shit, inorder to if attained the Body I have. Im telling you guys, thats the No:1 question that I get asked.
So I tell them the same answer as im telling you now. The answer to real growth can not be found packaged in some cheap ass plastic tub. The answer to growth is found in REAL FOOD. Period! Not in both.
"Yeah but both have their purpose"
Correct. One will make you grow and someday, hopefully rich. And the other will make you fat, bloated mess and poor as a motherfucker. Your take your top off after 20 years of training and your look like shit. Then your end up blaming it all on your genetics. Either that or your blessed family because they demanded a little more of your time.
If you go for the second one, the second option, then i promise you, your ass will never be great. Your never be financially secure in your life either because your waste so much, too much of your hard earned money and your also end up wasting many many years of your precious life on this earth and in this game. Your end up a grown ass man, suckling on that shaker bottle like a new born baby suckling on his mummy's titty for some liquid milk, when in truth you should of since been eating and chewing SOLID FOOD.
Im fairly young but I'm Old School, and I've clocked up alot of days living this life. 8, 030 days to be precise, that's 192, 720 hours searching for growth, and during this time I have made many mistakes.
I'VE changed many things like my training, sleep pattern, the way I diet even BUT let me tell you something i have never changed eating SOLID FOOD. That was never one of them.
Let me explain something to you...
Supplement companys (like Universal or Animal) hire Athletes to promote and sell their products. These athletes are often Pros because (a) you will know them and if your young aspiring, then your probably want to look like them as (b) They will also have a very well developed Physique.
But these Athletes promoting these products, did not develop their physiques by using these Products their promoting. They attained their physiques by eating solid food.
6-12 meals a day, day in, day out for over 20 + years. Like myself who has eaten roughly 48,180 solid meals, spread over 20 or so years. These figures that ive quoted are the reasons to my growth and success. As to why I have always GROWN UP and not had to COME DOWN.
I like you wanted to build up my body and I too once looked to the Pros for answers, then I started meeting them, spending time with them, i trained with them and did my cardio with them, and let me tell you something... You will never ever see them drink that shit. Well, unless there 'working' like in one of their training/advertising videos that is, then your see them sipping down that shit and smiling at the camera for you, like their a dehydrated Donkey, lost in the desert, who has somehow luckily stumbled on a water well.
But thats 'Marketing' supplements are marketing and thats nothing to do with bodybuilding and building a body.
You ask one of the Pro's on here selling that shit.
Once they've finished food shopping, cooking that food and eating it, they will then put down their spoon and bowl, and then they will type you an answer.
Hence the old saying...
"So silent is a room full of Professional Bodybuilders, and very few words are ever spoken, because they are all too busy chewing and digesting their food. "
Im not trying to attack anyone. Im trying to help you achieve your goals as quick and as easy as possible. I want you to be successful in your lives, not just with building your body up. As my Friend Rich Piana once said to me when I was just a Street Hustler with an impressive body, "I want you to be diverse in all aspects of your life."
He then said, "if you put the the same love and passion that you have for your wife and body building, into say building up a business, well your business would be a fipping success."
And his right because I took my shit off the streets and me and my wife started our own business. We built a Gym in 2006, and 10 years on its still open, still there standing, thriving... Hence why I am now about to take my Gorgeous wife on holiday. Gods good.
I wish you luck with your growth...
Journey Well
