A Passion For Winning
Even champions have their up and down moments along the way. Here are three ways they cultivate their winning attitude and mindset—no matter what:
Silence Distractions
We’ve all seen people at the gym who are supposedly working out but are actually doing anything but—as they…
How many times have you groaned when you saw a favorite athlete fall apart at the Olympics or other big competition?
It doesn’t matter how well trained you are physically—your mind can throw a wrench in the works in a heartbeat if it’s not equally prepared.
Any athlete who has sustained a long and successful career will tell you mental preparation is critical to performing your best. Yet, for many athletes…

It is much more important to maintain diet and training consistency over a long period of time to reach your goals. Supplements by themselves will not make up for problems in your diet or inconsistencies in your training regimen. However, some basic supplements can help your performance.
Many bodybuilders hate cardio. To some, it seems like a waste of time to sit on a bike for 45 minutes.
But champions know cardio is important to getting the shredded look you need to succeed on competition day. During the off season, you can limit cardio. But once you are in a training mode, cardio must be part of the plan.

You’ve been training so long and now it’s time to shift gears in the last few weeks before the competition.
At this point, your goal is to walk the line between low intensity workouts and high intensity maximum lifting so you build and maintain muscle without injury. That means staying out of lower repetition ranges and avoiding anything that could lead to injury.
But do not change things up tremendously…
One of the greatest moments of life is being on stage, at the peak of your game, with thousands cheering you on. And one of the beauties of bodybuilding is that almost everyone can enter—put in the work and you get a shot.
So, you’ve been showing up everybody at the neighborhood gym…
