NOW I’VE HEARD IT ALL.

 

Monday, May 5, 2008.

My deep apologies for the lack in between writings.  I have been ill and nothing of interest came to mind to write about.  It’s actually difficult at times to think of odd things to write about.  I mean this was initially started to write about the followings of contest prep and specifically, my prep for this years Nationals on November 21-22. But to be honest, I think bodybuilding talk can get incredibly BORING.  You know how you should have balance in your life, but one of the reasons I stopped going to night clubs, is that you get out and your ready to blow off some steam and get a little wild.  Escape reality.  Then somebody walks up and either says one of three questions: How much do you bench? (usually the most common); Do you compete?; or Do you take steroids?  With the last question charging hard to become the number one question asked.  Now don’t get me wrong.  I love talking bodybuilding, nutrition and training with people.  I love the fact that I’m able to educate others in how to change their lives.  But there is a time and place for everything and the night club while I’m dancing with my wife is not the time.  Sorry, didn’t mean to get off on such a tangent.  Back to my original point was simply that I’m going to try and make this blogging have a little personalty (I’ve got a way to go to reach Chris’s level, but I’m trying) and not talk so much about bodybuilding, that is of course unless that is what some of you would like to hear.  Please post a comment and let me know what direction you like this heading.

The title of this post is “Now I’ve heard it all”.  Today while driving home from my first part of the day.  I’m a personal trainer and start working with clients at 5:00am and finish at 10-11:00am.  This is when I train 3-4 clients and get my own workout in.  I head back to the gym around 4pm and finish with more clients.  There is a quick bio.  Back to the ride home, I heard a commercial for the Hair Institute with the Dr. Shapiro.  They had a male testimonial saying that he went bald taking “creatine and muscle building (supplements)”.  And now with going to the Hair Institute, he’s gotten his hair back.  Are you kidding me?  Now if the guy would’ve said, I went bald from taking 100mg of Anadrol, 1,000 mg of Test Suspension and 600 mg of Deca for the last 8 months, he would have a lot more credibility.  Creatine, come on!!!  As a nation, we are slowly losing our sense of rationality and common sense.  Our kids kids are screwed.  If this isn’t a means to take care of yourself so that when you get old you can still fend for yourself, then I don’t know what is. 

I must give a shoot out to two great people I had the chance to sit down and speak with for an hour last week.  Adam over at AFitnessConncection.com is a true good guy.  Check out his site because if it can’t help you, it can help a friend you know.  He’s set up a site where you can find personal trainers, doctors, martial artist training, and massage.  Or if you are one of the listed professionals, you can post your site to get clients.  Excellent resource.  You can also find my blog there directly. 

The other shoot out is to Chris Wan who also has her blog through A Fitness Connection.  She is an absolute lady and another one of the good people.  Many of you might know here because she is one of the few professional figure ladies out there.  Check out her blog too.  It’s real fun and will make your head spin.  Check out her photos, she looks great for only 29.  :) 

Enough for now.  Nice to be back writing again.  It is actually quite therapeutic.  Take care ya’ll.
