Ronnie NEVER EVER writes his own stuff...someone should really challenge FLEX magazine to come clean and admit this is all ghost written nonsense.
If ANYONE of us were to really sit Ronnie down and tell him how you train hard, eat right get plenty of rest, supplement properly etc...and tell him you are frustrated and need some advice to make it grow again this is what he'd really REALLy say...
"...well u kno...u gotta u know...keep weight liftin and uh...you know make sure you eat alot and uh...make sure you keep gittin stronger and uh...make sure you use dumbbells and bench press and you know...uh...make sure you keep gittin to the gym you know..."
Without ANY exaggeration or fun poked at Ronnie...thats probably what he'd really say to you.
