I got tired of being picked on and getting no attention from girls, so I decided to do something about it.
Why I Love It:
Every workout I have the opportunity to beat what I've done before, I can break a record I've set for myself, I can ascend to a higher peak.
Bodybuilding tests your mind, your will, your heart, and your body. If you are lacking in any area you will not have long term success.
How I Stay Motivated:
I know if I lose motivation, someone else out there will beat me. To be the best I can possibly be, there is no room for lack of motivation.

I hear people talk all the time about using a diuretic to lose subcutaneous water. Absolute bunk!!!!!! Water is held in a constant distribution between intracellular & extracellular space about a 70:30 ratio This is good. If you add a diruetic sure you lose some from the extracellular...
Oh yeah i remember you saying that. Good luck in your training this year for your competitions. Hope to see you there in Tampa next year. You still going to train really heavy or switching to hypertrophy training?
dude your traps look so small in your profile pic.. lol jk u monsta. RUM 2011 or what buddy? im goin again for sure, best meet ive ever been to. it was a blast. tell your boy i said thanks alot for the hand offs too.
Hey Layne thanks for the add. New fan, really enjoy your articles in MD. Trying to be the best Natural bodybuilder I can be. Defintely looking to pick up your prep book, take care.
How's it going, Layne?
I've been learning a lot of your routines and techniques through your previous and now my current workout partner, Spike Murphy.
You are a true inspiration to natural bodybuilders and i hope 2010 brings you all the best!

Hi,
You are truly an inspiration to me ... I am an amateur natural bodybuilder and every pound I earn, I am proud ... I am a poor ectomorph. I started at 145 lbs and now I'm at 179 lbs.
hey mate, i was just browsing some discussions on creatine and you seem to know what your talking about, could you please tell me what is the best to buy? what is the cheapest one that actually works. thx
I've read all your articles, watched your video series, & I had your DVD sent to me in Iraq last year! Very motivating stuff, I like to watch it whenever I need a motivation boost! Thanks for your contributions and expert advice... I should of thanked you a year ago (I'm good at procrastinating sometimes).
do you think sipping on xtend throughout the day is useful (diluted in a large amount of water), or woud it be a waste and basically jus function to flavor your water and make it easier to drink more?
Wanted to say congrats on the 700 pound deadlift, that's insane bro. I'm trying out your power/hypotrophy split while i'm cutting and am loving it so far but if you can just clarify one thing for me; Am i supposed to be going to failure on hypotrophy days on every set, just the last set, or never to failure? I'd really appreciate your advice and again, congrats.
