Background
When I Started: Nov 1998
HOW I STARTED:
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.

New DVD Layne Norton Reloaded now available for Pre-Order
Posted in Other : Dec 27, 2011 6:22amHello Everyone,
I am happy to announce that my second DVD, Layne Norton: Reloaded is nearing completion. This DVD chronicles my journey to the natural pro stage for the first time and what it took to get there. You will get to see my graduation from the University of Illinois with my PhD, our move to Tampa, FL, lots of training footage, tons of backstage footage from my shows, and much more. Overall this DVD has more than 3 hours of footage including bonus features! It also has an awesome soundtrack with my friends of Chimaira taking up the lead. It is different
...Diuretics and cutting water? More reasons why YOU ARE NOT SMARTER THAN YOU
Posted in Training : Dec 28, 2010 6:14pmI 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 space, but like any chemical system you can't just push the pendulum one way and expect it not to swing back. It will also pull water from inside the cell in order to maintain the proper gradient. If you actually could change this gradient it would cause all kinds of hell. This concentration gradient is cruci...

Hello there, Just wanted to drop by and say that you were one of the most inspiring athletes I ever saw, Following your articles on simply shredded about losing fat made me lose over 7 Kilos while maintain muscle (not much to begin with tho), Whats your take on post workout carbs for lean mass? low GI, High or mix? what ratio with protein? Please keep posting on scivation's site.

Hello Layne!
I've been following you for about a year now and I'm a huge fan of your work, the PHAT program is amazing!
I have been working on a Fitness website for weeks now, alone, and I would be greatly honored if you could do an interview with me!
Please let me know!

Just read a bunch of your articles on becoming a natural pro and they have solidified in my mind that is exactly what I want to do to! I'm going to wait 1 and 1/2 to 2 and 1/2 years to compete because I want to build the mass I need to do this. I'm currently about 168lbs @ 5'9' at around 10% BF (Ineed to update my avi lol) so after this spring I'm going to go a slow perma bulk. Focusing on my weakpoints (hamstrings and chest) also well as gaining overall size.Thanks for the inspiration bro

Hi Layne
We are an Irish fitness magazine due to be launched nationwide within the month. We were wondering if you would be interested in featuring in some way in our magazine? We see it as a great way to promote yourself in Ireland if thats something youd be interested in and we would love to work with you as a guest contributor.
We hope you are interested and look forward to hearing from you.
All the best,

Just wanted to say been reading some of your articles and I love em! I'm doing my first contest here in 6 weeks and they are really helping out!
I had a question though I saw you got your PHD in nutrional sciences. I am currently in school for health education but I am really into the whole nutrition side and was thinking about furthing my schooling. Any suggestion on school or degree? Any comments I'd greatly appreciate!

know if they may be a waste of money or if there are some validity to their claims. I searched forums,got alot of mixed views on effectiveness, safety,etc. Figured I would ask your advice since you seem to be pretty damn knowledgeble on nutrition. Love all the articles and videos you do btw! Keep up the great work!

Tried sending you a pm but says your box is full so thought I would try this. What are your thoughts/experience/knowledge with products like GH STAK by Muscle-Link, a supposed GH booster. Also natural test boosters. I may try USPLabs Pink Magic/Prime stack when I bulk up. I am almost 28 and don't
