Body transformation
Mr. Robson, how are you?
My name is David Sura and I recently made to commitment, to myself, to get in the best shape that I can. Having come across your article on the 12-Week Transformation has been, by far, the best coincidence because it gave me a boost of self-confidence that I had lacked for a long time, and for that sir, I’m deeply grateful.
Ever since I stopped playing soccer, about 7 years ago, I’ve been chubby and I would say that since then I’ve been about 20 to 30 lbs. overweight. On Monday August 17th was my first day following your 12-week transformation workouts, nutrition, supplements, mind tips, etc. I have read each of your articles, related to the 12-week program transformation, twice already and just like anything in life, this will only be beneficial as long as I implement what I learn and understand from your articles.
I got all the supplements that you recommend, and I’ve mapped out each day of the week for the next 12 weeks according to your recommendations. I’m an Accountant by profession and so since I’m in an office all day, I have no difficulties in planning my meals and supplements during the week, or weekends for that matter.
I am 5′5″ and I weigh 164 lbs, and because of my height, my goal is to have more of a lean physique, rather than having the bodybuilder physique, please excuse if I mix-up my definitions. I realize, or maybe I don’t because I have never set out to sculpt my body as I have now, but at least from what I’ve read at bodybuidling.com, that in order to get “big”, if you will, you have to train for years, and combine diet and workouts with the right supplements.
My goal, which believe me, I know I can achieve with the right tools and guidance, is to have a body like http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/images/2006/bg72.jpg OR http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/images/2008/3_action_movie_workouts_b.jpg .
I know that I’m months away from my goal, but I would like to make sure that I’m headed in the right direction. Having said all of this, the only three questions I have for you are as follows:
<dir><dir>Are the supplements you recommended at http://bodybuilding.com/fun/robson_newyearguide3.htm the right ones for me?
Are the workout routines you recommended at http://bodybuilding.com/fun/robson_newyearguide1.htm the right ones I should follow?Are the nutrition meals you recommended at http://bodybuilding.com/fun/robson_newyearguide2.htm the ones I should follow?
I want to thank you in advance for any input you can give me on these questions. In the meantime, I will continue reading the articles on the website to learn a little more about the body, nutrition, supplements etc.
I’ve just taken a couple of pictures to have a before and after comparison, so I might be sharing my story at bodybuilding.com in a few months.
Best Regards,
DA
</dir></dir>Hi D…
You are 100 percent correct. There is nothing to stop you, or anyone else, from achieving bodybuilding success. All it really takes is a complete commitment, and the right information. There will always be mistakes made along with way, but if you keep on track success will inevitably be yours.
The transformation plan you are embarking on - all components, including diet, training and supplementation - has helped many people build muscle and strip fat in line with their genetic potential. Considering you are 20-30 poujnds overweight I would recommend you include an additional one hour of cardio training (broken into three 20 minutes sessions per week) in your plan. Do this in the evening after training, or attach it to your morning sessions. Once you have shed your unwanted fat weight, reduce cardio back to what is outlined in the transformation plan. The combination of diet, weight training and cardio coupled with a consistent approach to ensuring all four are targeted in line with this transformation plan will guarantee success. All the very best to you.

The effects of nutritional supplements are nearly identical to the effects found in the naturally occurring vitamins and minerals in the body. These vitamins, minerals and amino acids help the brain and organs of the body to function at their best.
