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.

He is the most successful natural bodybuilder in history and was one of the first pro bodybuilders I ever met. He was humble and very helpful and is a big reason why I am where I am today.

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...
You have accomplished so much. Keep up the hard work and intense focus. You should be proud of yourself. Have you ever known anyone who had nerve damage in a pectoral muscle where only half the muscle flexed?? I also have Parasthesia..Pins and needles in it...
Hi...Just wanted to tell you, you look awesome. It is very hard for someone to have the numbers and physique you have.....Great work! Good luck with that huge pull!

Hey Layne,
I'm trying to get big and would like to know the proper way to cycle steroids, thanks.
I can't seem to gain any more size on my arms. Do you recommend resting for shorter periods of time (about a minute) between sets to greater the intensity?
Hey man thanx for adding me. good luck in deadlifting 700 wich at your weight it quite impressive ! i like deadlifting way more than bench and squat and was wondering if you had any tips ? ive gotten as much as 315 but im unfortunately about 275 right now. Any tips would be highly appreciated !
hows everything layne? anymore pl comps soon? i have one coming up nov 8th. trying to break the 400lb world record bench at 242 for 20-24yrs old and breaking 600 in deads
hey layne
I recently read one of your articles about consuming protein during a wokrout
i posted it as a blog one time, and alot people said "no its pointless" you will just turn it into glucose
but at the same time, brands make bcaa and amino acids powder to consume during a work out
whats your opinion on it? do you consume protein during a workout?
