Meet MP Competitor Jeremiah Taylor. Congrats on a great showing! What made you decide to compete in the Men’s Physique Division?
After watching a friend compete in the Branch Warren Classic last July, my son asked me if I was too scared to compete.
Can you tell us a little about the show in which you most recently competed?
I competed in the Dyess Muscle Classic in November on an Air Force Base in Abilene, TX. It was a smaller show, however, I found my inner showman during that competition. I got to compete against Tom Blas again.
Just because you can't see your back in the mirror doesn't mean you shouldn't train it. A good back will give your physique a wide and powerful look, and it will also give you the illusion of having a smaller waist. How do you build a strong V shaped back? Read on as I detail my top three back exercises that will hit your lats, middle and lower back...
Most everyone understands that they need to put in work to experience results, however what few understand and even fewer practice is what comes before the work! Newton described action with his Principle of Inertia, in that “an object will continue moving at its current velocity until some force causes its speed or direction to change.” How does this apply to our fitness? Well, read on…
With us today is MP IFBB PRO Cory Lagasse. Congrats on your success to date! What made you decide to compete in the Men’s Physique Division?
I needed a challenge. I wanted something to motivate me and push me harder with my training.
Can you tell us a little about the show in which you most recently competed?
The last show I competed in was the 2012 Houston Pro. It was the worst finish I’ve had in my Physique career. It was also my IFBB Pro debut. I was being compared to some of the best physiques in the business and mainly decided to compete because it was the last pro show of the year. I really wanted to see how I compared against some of the other big names in the business before I went into the offseason...
For those of you who do not know what 7-Keto is, it is a metabolite of the hormone dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), which has gained popularity among those who are interested in battling the aging process. Keto-7 boosts immune function and helps to reduce body fat without the risk of conversion to estrogen and testosterone which characterizes DHEA.
Keto-7 (or 7-Keto) is a brand name for the chemical 3-acetyl-7-oxo-dehydroepiandros-terone which is a metabolite mainly produced in the adrenal glands and skin as well as the brain. Levels of this compound rise in the body until about age 20, then start to drop after age 30, declining by 50% by age 50...
It’s been 30 days since you hit my leg workout. I’m hoping you are back to walking normal and you’re ready for a change to your shoulder workout. Here are a FEW TIPS to help maximize the results of the workout.
TIP 1: When doing shoulders really focus on form and do not sacrifice it no matter what. Shoulders are the easiest body part to injure and many times the most nagging. Shoulder surgery is not fun and can be a 6 month recovery.
TIP 2: When doing side laterals or front raises make sure you bring the weight SLIGHTLY above the shoulders. I see many people in the gym without a good range of motion and unless you bring that weight SLIGHTLY above the shoulder you will be missing out on some key growth.
