When you really think about weight training,.JPG)
it all comes down to those last 2-3 reps. For most people that work out with weights they have 2 major goals in mind to increase their muscle size and strength. In order to achieve these goals you have to be willing to push your muscles further than they have gone before, in order to force them to grow and adapt to the demands you are placing on them. Sure there are lots of techniques to confuse the muscles and numerous different exercises to implement in order to work them from every possible angle, but in the end it still all comes down to those last 2-3 reps...
Here are the standings following the Jr Nationals in Chicago, IL. This I would have to say was probably the deepest show in every category that I’ve been to this season. Usually there are a good number of competitors who look like their trainers did them a disservice but not this time. Here are the standings following this show. Let the debates begin. LOL
1. Bobby Ashhurst 33
2. Kevin Perod 32
3. Jesse Lehman 30...
Each and every one of us has been bestowed
with the ultimate blessing; the power to make our own way, yet very few people will utilize this Gift to it’s full potential. So many will spend their time and energy becoming what others or society feels that they should be and to lose yourself is to waste what has been given to you!
I challenge you to look deep inside yourself and find that Dream that you have always wanted to make a reality!...
We are here with John Lee, winner of the Tall Class MP
Division at the Europa in Dallas this past weekend. Congrats on a great showing! What made you decide to compete in the Men’s Physique Division?
This division is a God-send for those of us who have a specific belief in the ideal male physique. I admire the bodies of pro bodybuilders but never pursued bodybuilding seriously. I wanted to retain my athleticism and continue practicing martial arts. I valued form and function and did not want my body to exceed a certain weight limit. When this division came to existence I was immediately drawn to it.
Can you tell us a little about the Competition you just competed in?
The Europa Super Show in Dallas TX is a combination of IFBB Pro Show and NPC Shows. It is probably the top 2 or 3 biggest competition in the country after the Olympia and the Arnold in terms of industry attendance and drawing power. In the Men's Physique division there were over 50 competitors split into 2 groups. In my class (Class B 5'10” and Over), there were over 20 competitors. Being backstage was an awe-inspiring experience because of the caliber of the competitors who showed up in TX this weekend.
How did you feel after pre-judging?..
I am 3 weeks out from my 6th contest 
of the year and personally the most important one. In 3 weeks I will be competing for IFBB Pro status in the new Men’s Physique division. This will be my final competition for the season and hoping to bring the best package to the stage in order to win and become a new pro in the division. Over the next few weeks I will be doing updates of progress with detailed information on my diet, training, and other helpful tips that I hope others can use to bring a great package to their next show as well!
My diet changes frequently but as of right now here is an example..:
If you’re looking for a great way to start 
the day while staying healthy, here you go! This shakes packs 480 nutritious calories. About 9 grams of healthy fats, 54 grams of carbs, and 47 grams of high quality protein. The protein includes 12 grams of a Tri-Sorb protein blend. It’s a unique blend of highly absorbable proteins. First is a non-GMO soy that has been processed to remove isoflavones that can impact estrogen. Soy is a complete protein, easily digested, and adequate consumption can help the body reduce cholesterol and c-reactive protein. Studies show that soy can build lean muscle as good, and in some studies better than whey proteins. We then use a whey concentrate, and the newest technology in whey hydrolysate. This is the most concentrated and 'clean' protein on the market today, and is very expensive. The key reason is it builds lean muscle. The FDA allows it to be called a 'fat loss accelerant' as a result the only protein that can use that claim....
