View attachment 14085My favorite place to train when in New York! Thanks @bevsgym for always giving me a badass gym to kill it in!
With today being my Back training Day i figured why not post a Back Pic on this beautiful Sunday. Sunday is usually a day of rest for many, but not for me, as I have tons of Gains to make this week. I take every workout very serious as it allows me the necessary momentum which will yield positive results for the duration of my Olympia preparations. If anyone's guessing which show is this from, it's from the 2010 Arnold Classic. Can't believe that's 7years ago and honestly a ton of pounds of muscle ago too lol. Today imma hit some of my old school lifts, Barbell rows, dumbbell rows, t-bar rows oh and seated rows too just because haha. Hope you all have a blessed day and to those training today, pray for those weights as you're about to murder them and get your gains now!!!!

View attachment 14463Had an amazing time watching @sinbadbad comedy show last night. No need for ab training because I along with @shurieeeee died laughing all night long lol. Thanks Sinbad for spending time with us after the show it was very enlightening to say the least. Oh and thanks for bringing me up on stage and shout me out as I enjoyed sharing your stage for a few minutes making jokes with fans.
Ouuuuch!!! Couldnt imagine the pain unless its anything like an appendix bursting...i know that pain.Phil Heath just had major surgery!
From Twitter:
During surgery the Doctor found that Phil had two huge hernias. One above his belly button that spread 2 inches wide on each side where his upper intestines were caught within the torn tissue and muscle and a lower abdominal hernia which was apart of his umbilical hernia that he was born with (which was repaired at age 2 and was done horribly wrong) this lower hernia was so bad that it tore from side to side, up and down causing Phil to have a 3 inch hole that was an inch deep and had 4 inches of his small intestines hanging over that hole. The doc was able to push his intestines 5 inches back down into his abdomen and tightened his abdomen together and closed the holes. Doc was shocked that phil was able to live this way. He explained that hernias are genetic and Phil was born with very little tissue covering his abdomen. Doc also explained that phil has been using only half of his abdominal muscles due to his hernia at birth. Phil has been an athlete all of his life and this hernia was a ticking time bomb. He explained that Phil was any day away from a life threatening intestinal strangulation. Doc said his belly button was more visible this year due to the fact that his small intestine was literally inside of it, pushing it forward right underneath the skin. He said out the 20 + thousand hernia repairs he's done.. this was one of the worst he's seen. ----------------------------------------- Phil accepts the hate that comes with being a Champion. The reality is... we live in a very troubled world! Phil and I have received so much vile and hateful Dms/ Comments & even death threats bc Phil won. There is no denying that Phil was incredible on stage...bringing one of his most hard and conditioned packages yet! I'm still in shock he was able to do this all while silently in pain and little did we know he was at such risk. ------------------------------------------ I would like to thank all of his true fans and those of you who love the sport of bodybuilding. The positive messages that we received did make Phil smile. He's 7x MrO but he's a human being first! To those of you who realized that... THANK YOU! ------------------------------------------
More on this coming soon guys..
I've been using my compex during my travels. I use the active recovery settings to rehab my muscle aches and pains during cardio and while I'm sitting on the plane. I don't get to train as long as I usually do when I'm home so with my compex I maximize my 45 min training sessions while Traveling and get an even better pump.
View attachment 15811Time to remind yourself just how great you are. Mondays to some are negative, but in order to receive the many blessings life has for you one must simply demand positivity through ones actions. Enough with the talk, as we all have seen enough of that especially on social media without real actions to back them up. Let's WALK THE WALK PEOPLE! Do not think for one minute that just speaking things will be enough. YOU MUST OUTWORK YOURSELF BEYOND MEASURE TO EVEN BE WORTHY OF THOSE REWARDS! Oh and it's ok to fail because at least you are aiming at a target. Now refocus, take a few deep breaths. No I am serious take a few deep breaths, concentrate on your objectives and go after it without believing there's time for fatigue. Now that's how it's done! That's how you're going to go to bed knowing you have zero regrets. That's how when you wake up the next day you'll realize that you've got another day to exhibit excellence. It's time people! The world is filled with too much damn darkness. We were all born to SHINE!!!!! Choice is yours. Have a great week!
