here before the mirror stands the Reflection of a Man…in discontent with what he’s seeing, he creates a Vision…a Hope for a seamless transition from his present eyesore into a Fine Tuned Well-built Temple capable of withstanding the extremeties of all seasons of Life.  And looking on displeased with how he feels, he seeks to develop Strength, Speed, Power, Endurance, Stamina, Definition and Mass(if need be).  It isn’t in his intentions to develop an immunity to Pain but a Tolerance to Gain and partake of the foods that will nourish and sustain the Superb Physical Specimen he works towards to attain!  Remembering where he was yesterday, not being content with the progress of today but the perseverance to do it again tomorrow and Enjoy the Journey!!!  

Whether it’s a bigger bicep, cheese grading abs, an intimidating chest or legs strong enough to stay rooted in the ground…how does it apply to the character of the person?  The discipline is obviously there to a certain degree but, what does it do for them internally?  How does it relate to everyday life outside of the gym?…does exercise/nutrition just solely take control over the day to day decisions and that becomes a man/woman’s truth about life?  My questions reach out to the professionals in the bodybuilding field and those who are "fitness gurus"  because I really would like to take on some new greater levels of fitness and nutrition while gaining some form of spiritual insight.  What’s your take on it?
