Why I Train Only 3 Times A Week.

In this video I go over in detail the path that led me to training just three days a week, which I have been doing now for the past 31 years, and it's been the foundation of my success as a natural bodybuilder and continues to produce gains even after all these years.

It's a science based approach and a way of training that I have used to help hundreds of men and women realize their fitness goals, from those trying to lose weight to professional natural bodybuilders.

And I think it's something that you should take a look at and see if it might be a fit for you if you are a natural athlete as well.

You can watch the full video on YouTube by clicking on my Bio link and thanks in advance for taking the time to look at my work! Excelsior! #naturallyintense

Here's how far I've gone to not miss a workout...

I once walked through a snow storm in sneakers (it was all I had back then ) to get to the gym so I wouldn't miss leg day.

I almost froze, but I got it in.

I once pulled an all-nighter outside Yankee Stadium from 6pm to 9am to get Subway Series tickets for my clients (when I worked in social services there was nothing I wouldn't do for my clients.) And I went straight to the gym afterwards because it was leg day. (I wouldn't recommend training on zero sleep but I wouldn't have done it if I wasn't 100% sure I had it in me).

Before hotels had training equipment, I've walked as far as 8 miles alongside highways to get to a gym.

When none were within a 10 mile radius, I'd write out beforehand what I was going to do with bodyweight exercise so I wouldn't miss a day

I only train 3 days a week.

And unless I'm injured I don't miss workouts.

So, it's no surprise that when the lockdowns came I didn't miss a workout.

I got weights the day they announced gyms would close and didn't miss a beat.

It's only 3 days, so it's not really that hard, but what I want to emphasize is that training is a passion for me.

It's a time to truly push myself to the limit, find those limits and do my utmost to transcend them.

I start my workout the day before with what I eat, and I visualize what I'm going to do and how much I'm going to lift. And I don't have "bad workouts" because I trained my mind to be a blank page when I pick up that first weight.

Compromise is for relationships, not your passions and if you really want to change your body you have to passionate about training.

If you just go through the motions you'll and you'll have to master bending time and space to make sure you always get them in as nothing should come between you and your workouts.

It's a sacred time and it's remember that you deserve that sacred time.

So here's to your next workout and make sure you get it in!!! Excelsior!!! #naturallyintense

Here's the glamour of being shredded and muscular without drugs:

You give every workout everything you have.

You never miss a workout.

You eat what you need to eat.

You eat more or less the same things.

You get enough sleep.

You understand that no matter how much you achieve you may never be a social media star, never grace the cover of a major magazine and most certainly won't be breaking into the movie business anytime soon.

See the glamour?

Dazzled by the glitz?

You aren't because there simply isn't any.

You do it because it's what you do.

You do it because it's what you love.

And you do it because it's a way of life that brings you a profound and long lasting sense of peace.

You most certainly don't do it for the fame and recognition, because there really isn't that much to get, and those on the fast track to being big, ripped and far more popular tend to shake their heads as to why anyone would willingly choose to do it any other way.

For or those who walk the path, no explanation is necessary, and for those who don't, none is possible.

But, thankfully there are no gates to the path and anyone can walk it, as long as they understand that there's absolutely nothing glamourous about it and while it can seem a bit tedious and mundane, you do it for you.

And that makes it more than worth it. Excelsior!!! #naturallyintense

I always loved Batman.

Some of my earliest memories are of my mother reading Batman comics to me right before going to bed, and as much as I was a fan of Superman, Thor, Hulk, Captain America, and the Black Panther, what made Batman stand out for me was the fact that he didn't have any powers.

I could relate to that.

I could relate to the idea of someone working harder than anyone else could conceive in order to truly realize their physical and mental potential.

I could relate to that.

But as the years went by there were parts of the character that I would no longer relate to.

As a kid I was mercilessly bullied and my decision to start martial arts was driven largely by a need to be able to defend myself. As I got older and better, I could defend myself, but unless someone knew who I was and what I was capable of, I would still be a target.

Bodybuilding was a way to build a suit of protective armor, not to fight, but to project in such as way that there would be less likelihood of violence.

Back then I could relate to Batman's story of taking an event that was painful and tapping into that pain to push yourself above and beyond what you thought you were capable of.

But unlike Batman, I always resolved not to be defined by my pain, as there is only so much growth possible if you are always reliving the pain of the past.

My circumstances and hardships started me on a path to self-improvement, but to truly improve I had to find other reasons to push myself, and I did.

I do it for me. I do it because of the sense of being truly alive when I train and the peaceful sense of balance I find by eating the way I do.

And I think that too many of us in the fitness field don't work hard enough on shedding those demons, and instead become, much like Batman, driven by unchangeable events of the past.

It's not healthy regardless of how far it takes you physically as in order to grow as a person, your roots must be embedded in love and self-care, as pain will only take you so far. Excelsior! #naturallyintense

It is possible to never eat sugar.

But unfortunately the reality that a sugar free diet is not only possible, but well within everyone's reach is drowned out by the marketing that masquerades as dietary recommendations that focus on eating less sugar rather than cutting it out completely.

Sugar is the backbone of most processed food and drinks, the sales of which make up a significant percentage of the American economy. Food corporations, thus have considerable leverage and for decades have made it such that dietary guidelines focus on eating less sugar instead of taking it completely out of your diet.

A recommendation based on protecting the food industry and not one based on public health. The fitness industry does it as well, promoting eating less, or that you can have sugar in your diet and still be in great shape. Which again, is often propaganda as most prominent fitness figures use drugs to attain their look, drugs that make it possible to eat desserts and still be ripped. A factor that isn't passed on to their audience, as posting photos of eating desserts goes a long way in bonding with your social media audience, but it doesn't address the fact that most people CANNOT consume sugar in moderation and it steers away from the reality that most of them lack the ability to really quit eating sugar themselves.

But it can be done and you need not be a superhero to do it! In this video I go over the reality of not eating sugar permanently. That it can be done, but it takes years, it takes patience, it takes being able to fail and get right back up and it also takes having pacemakers who help show you that it can be done.

Click on the link in my bio to watch and I hope it helps anyone out there trying to remove sugar from their lives. Thanks for watching and Excelsior!!! #naturallyintense
