HOW TO TURN PRO - by MIKE ARVILLA
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm going to cut right to it. Here's EXACTLY, word for word, what it takes for anyone to turn pro:
1. Genetics
2. Busting your ass in the gym
3. Knowing how to eat alot of good food
4. Knowing what it means to "rest"
5. 12-15 YEARS of being consistant, and never missing a scheduled workout (*note: you are allowed to miss 2-3 workouts in that 12-15 years for funerals, family tragedy, etc.)
NOW.. here's how 1-5 plays out: Your GENETICS, you are born with, and can do nothing about. Numbers 2,3,4, I could teach a retarded monkey with a brain amputation.
And #5.. is why 99.99999% of the people fail.. and fall dead on their ass.
Notice is doesn't say "gear" or "steroids" in there at all. If you are one of those people that walks around saying "he's just big because he's on tons of shit!", then you will NEVER make it. NEVER!!
Steroids, GH, gear.. is the ultimate weak minded pussies excuse. Because, if it's GEAR, they never have to admit they aren't good enough. These people come up with an abstract excuse that no one can exacty pin point (how much, exactly is "tons of shit"?), and that way they don't have to admit they just ain't got it.
Notice the only thing you never hear someone say is: "I'm just not good enough?"

Sorry Mike, but turning pro has everything to do with gear. Great genetics combined with the right chemcials is 100% responsible for both physical and mental bb success...training, cardio, diet and rest go without saying (although without gear there would be no extraordinary results). Without the quick consistent results produced by bb chemicals there would be no motivation for any current pro/nationally ranked bb to continue training as hard as they do. Without the use of and total dependence on chemicals there would be no huge, conditioned bbs....there would still be big guys, but no huge, ripped bbs.
I say we just call it what it really and is and leave it at that....no need to hide reality. Let's watch how big these guys can get on the sauce and enjoy the bb shows.
