“Everybody wants to be a bodybuilder but don't nobody wanna lift no heavy ass weights” - the great Ronnie Coleman. This basically sums up this episode perfectly. And even if you don't want to be a professional bodybuilder, I can almost guarantee that you want to build your body in some way. So all the same principles apply. I'm genuinely sick and tired of people selling lies. All exercise is good, but that does not mean that all exercise produces the same results. Human beings are hardwired to avoid struggle and difficulty, and people in the fitness industry prey on this. “Do this thing that much easier than that other hard thing, I promise it works!”. Sure… if that were true, why wouldn't everyone just do that then??? I go into more detail in this episode of course, but I hope you stay with me here. All I'm trying to do is deliver the truth. And I may not always be nice, but I will always be good.The best way to support the podcast is to share the episode with a friend.

Everybody wanna be a bodybuilder, but nobody want to lift no heavy ass weight! That quote, from The King, Ronnie Coleman, epitomizes the world of fitness.

Diversion? https://erickimphotography.com/blog/2024/08/18/sports-set-yourself-free/ Audio: https://erickimphotography.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/SPORTS.m4a --- # NEVER SIT What is the weirdest and most bizarre thing in modern-day life? Enclosed spaces, sitting? ## Achilles One visual I really like from the movie *Troy*, with Brad Pitt as Achilles, is when he's in his little hut, sleeping with his beautiful babes, and he's woken up by the kid who tells him that he needs to fight this really steroided-out barbarian fighter. The first thought… I think the reason why people love camping so much is that it is far more natural and naturalistic; essentially, all day, you're outside, and even in the evening, you're al fresco by the fire… hanging out! And this is the bizarre thing… what is modernity? The *preference* to be indoors, with weakening air conditioning, or the preference to sit, instead of the preference to be out and about, traversing the outdoor terrain? ## Ideas I'll give you examples: the enclosed modern-day gymnasium. Now, about a year without a gym membership… I've discovered how bizarre it is. First, if you think about the naturalistic gymnasium of the ancient Greeks, it was an open-air gymnasium. Pretty much like a huge massive plot of dirt or sand, and a bunch of naked dudes working out, doing bodily combat exercises, training, hanging out talking shop, etc. I think the problem in today's world is that we have commoditized everything. We've even commoditized the human body, and we have applied both capitalistic and consumerist notions to the body. For example, weight. Weight, like calories, is the most insanely foolish idea. For example, let's say that you are 6 feet tall and 300 pounds. Now this is different if you are 80% body fat, a morbidly obese man, or if you are 5% body fat, and you look like a demigod. Imagine someone like Ronnie Coleman without the steroids. This is very pernicious with women; I think this is the bizarre contradiction: men are always trying to gain weight, while women are trying to lose weight. If we think about this from a modern-day capitalistic productivity perspective… with money, we are always trying to gain it, never lose it. But if we thought about money like weight, the analogy starts to change a bit. There is nobody on the planet who likes to lose money. Nobody. Also, almost universally… Everyone likes to gain money. Also... it seems that people also like to *spend* money. But the bizarre irony is that **the moment you spend money, you lose money**. Then the thought is, that is OK… I'll just keep working harder, in order to earn more money, in order to spend it more. ## White people make money don't spend it I almost feel like Kanye West almost figured everything out. Of course, not everything, but a lot. --- This portion explores themes around modern society's norms and behaviors, particularly the contradictions in how we live, exercise, and manage our resources like money and health. There's a critique of indoor living and a comparison to more natural, outdoor activities, along with an analysis of the commodification of the body and the absurdities of modern economic behavior.
Francesca Marzia Esposito"Ultra corpi"La ricerca utopica di una nuova perfezioneminimum faxwww.minimumfax.comSe lasciati a loro stessi, i corpi si accartocciano, si deformano, si imbruttiscono, ma grazie al lavoro costante, alla dedizione, alla disciplina, a sacrifici anche estremi è possibile modificare il corso «naturale» degli eventi, in una simulazione – ancorché illusoria – di permanenza, quando non di immortalità. Questa ricerca di una perfezione utopica e variamente declinata, esasperata per difetto e per eccesso, è alimentata da canoni estetici imposti dal contesto culturale e dalle specifiche discipline – il body building, la danza, la ginnastica – ma spesso si innesta su un disagio del quale anoressia e vigoressia sono sintomi opposti e complementari. Spaziando tra matrice autobiografica, riflessione teorica e micronarrazioni archetipiche, Francesca Marzia Esposito costruisce una mappa dell'immaginario legato al corpo e alle sue trasformazioni, appoggiandosi a vicende insieme popolari ed esemplari come quelle di Ronnie Coleman, Arnold Schwarzenegger e Iris Kyle per il body building; Carla Fracci, Rudolf Nureyev e Roberto Bolle per la danza.Ultracorpi è un'indagine sui corpi modificati artificialmente, corpi ipertrofici portati all'espansione più estrema e corpi assottigliati che sembrano tendere alla totale sparizione, corpi che davanti allo specchio decidono di affrontare mutamenti estremi inseguendo una forma tanto più astratta e irreale quanto più definita e anatomicamente dettagliata. E in sottofondo, onnipresente, una domanda: cosa siamo disposti a fare, a rischiare, per inseguire la perfezione?Francesca Marzia Esposito vive a Milano, dove insegna danza. Si è laureata al Dams di Bologna e ha conseguito un master in Scrittura per il cinema all'Università Cattolica di Milano. Alcuni suoi racconti sono apparsi sulle riviste Granta, GQ, 'tina e Colla. Ha pubblicato i romanzi La forma minima della felicità (Baldini & Castoldi 2015) e Corpi di ballo (Mondadori 2019).IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.
On this week's episode of the Escape Your Limits podcast, we are joined by Shawn Ray aka ‘The Giant Killer', former professional bodybuilder, 13-time Mr. Olympia Finalist and one of the most rebellious, outspoken athletes in the sport still to this day.

Shawn Ray talks openly about his experience and insights on the evolution of bodybuilding, the impact of social media, and the importance of mentors. Ray also discusses the risks of injury, health problems, and death, as well as the growing trend of bodybuilders relying on teams of trainers, nutritionists, and other support staff. Ray emphasizes the need for balance and prioritizing self-reliance, personal responsibility, and appreciation in fostering meaningful connections. In this highlights video, Shawn Ray talks about: How the passion began with a magazine on a newsstand. The role of self-doubt and ego in bodybuilding. Rising to the occasion when things get tough. The importance of a mentor in career success. Breaking down ego and building up confidence.

It's time to conquer your limiting beliefs to finally achieve that goal you've had for years or decades. Conquer Your Limiting Beliefs: What is Possible One of the biggest limiting beliefs is failing to understand what is possible, especially over a longer period of time. People tend to overestimate how much change they can make in a short period of time but underestimate how much they can change over months and years. The short change bias is why so many diets fail and why many media outlets develop the "8 weeks to abs" and similar things. Seeing "normal" people perform things you think is impossible, though, is powerful. Watching people who don't look like Ronnie Coleman or Ed Coan deadlift 500 or bench press 315 makes a big impact. How did they achieve these goals? Through consistent training over years. Conquer Your Limiting Beliefs: Feeling Stuck We love what Barbell Logic offers because Barbell Logic coaches help clients get unstuck. Barbell Logic clients tend to fall into this general boat: ready to change, ready to work to change, ready to pay some money to change, but unsure of what to do. Getting unstuck is possible. Achieving a physique or strength level you thought impossible is likely possible. It won't happen in eight weeks. It might happen in eight years. See what happens with consistent training over months and years. Experience strength with Barbell Logic. Conquer your limiting beliefs and crush your goals.

Dave Palumbo and Chris Aceto wrap up the IFBB JAPAN PRO Plus, DUBAI MUSCLE SHOW where Rubiel "Neckzilla" Mosquera wowed the crowd! Upcoming NPC NATIONALS and more!
In today's episode, our guest is Adam Jablin. He is on a heroic journey to create an extraordinary life, but he has to navigate his challenges, including addiction, drinking, and medications. You've seen people overcome similar struggles, and there are always inspiring stories about how they use that experience to make a positive impact on the world. That's what this man does. If you're looking to hear about someone's journey of overcoming adversity and achieving incredible things, especially while battling similar challenges yourself, this episode is perfect. So, without further ado, let's begin. [5:45] Why should I listen to you? I care deeply, and it's because of my genuine concern for people. I value human connections and strive for meaningful interactions. When I converse with you, you can expect someone who respects and values you, someone who communicates from the heart. [6:20] Where did you enter into life that led to this journey, and is there a particular point at the very beginning that you consider a good starting point? I come from the era of the 80s and 90s, where masculinity was epitomized by figures like Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger. I was raised to be a 'man's man,' tough and rugged. However, my response may seem somewhat contradictory to that image. The truth is, I've always possessed a caring and compassionate heart, a deep desire to help people, and a genuine love for serving others. Now, let me take you back to my earlier statement. Growing up in the 80s and 90s, these larger-than-life characters made me feel somewhat out of place, as it didn't align with my natural inclination. I'd even recall instances in football where I would tackle an opponent correctly and extend a hand to help them up, only to hear my coach demanding that I leave them on the ground. This innate caring nature I've had since birth wasn't something I initially embraced or understood, especially in a world that admired action heroes. [9:10] How did you develop these qualities? Was it through life experiences or through building rapport with others? I genuinely believe that this is something inherent in my nature. I should note that I didn't have an exceptionally challenging upbringing. My mother was nurturing, but my father embodied the typical 'man's man' persona. There was a clear polarity in my household, and my father was determined not to let me grow up as a 'mama's boy.' He often reiterated that he wouldn't allow me to become too soft. Nevertheless, I think there was a degree of nurturing in my upbringing that I naturally gravitated towards. Despite the challenges, including family struggles, alcoholism, addiction, and the ups and downs of life, this caring nature has always been a fundamental part of who I am. [11:45] How do you balance setting high standards for your child in their chosen pursuits without making them feel like a lesser person? My son has developed a deep passion for bodybuilding, and it warms my heart to see him embrace this love. He's been studying not just the current generation of bodybuilders but also legends like Sean Ray, Dorian Yates, Jay Cutler, Ronnie Coleman, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Frank Zane, and even had conversations with Michael Hearn. I've been fortunate to share this journey with him. In the gym, it's important to communicate and encourage one another. I remember a moment when my son and his best friend were training together. His friend cracked a joke just as he was about to lift a weight, and I noticed my son laughing and losing focus. In that instant, my coaching instincts kicked in. I re-racked the weight and told my son that he could joke once he finished his last rep. It's not about being overly tough but ensuring he stays focused and motivated. We should cheer him on for those extra reps. Anthony, you should take this as a compliment because, having spent time with you and your family, I see that your son greatly admires and respects you. You're like a mentor to him. You inspire him and encourage him to give his best, not allowing him to back down. [13:23] How did you navigate challenges with unsupportive parents, seeking acceptance and love, and progressing through such situations? I believe there were some accurate emotions at play. My father had a strong desire to mold me into a responsible, capable man. With the perspective of time, I've come to realize that I wasn't always the central focus of his attention. He carried a heavy load of responsibilities, and even when he seemed distant, distracted, or upset, it wasn't necessarily about me. He was a driven, busy figure in the business world, often referred to as an 'assassin.' Many of my cravings for approval, acceptance, and love stemmed from a need to connect with him, to earn his affection in any way I could. [14:40] Can you discuss personal challenges you faced in your journey, how they influenced your path, and the role of your early years? When I was growing up in New Jersey, I was the chubby kid, often referred to as 'El Chapo' by my dad, although he didn't mean it in a harmful way. It was a different era back then. There was a movie in the 80s called 'The Goonies' where a character rolls through a chimney, and my friends would have me reenact that. Fast forward, our family moved to Florida, a non-union state, where I could enjoy the pool every day. I used to swim with my shirt on because I was self-conscious about my weight. My parents noticed how upset I was and decided to make a change. They started buying me fitness magazines like Flex and Muscle and Fitness, got me my first bench press and some dumbbells, and stopped taking me to fast-food restaurants. They replaced my usual McDonald's order with healthier options like grilled chicken and apples. It was a different time, without the wealth of information available today, but I absorbed everything I could, just like you and I get to see with today's youth. In just four years, I transformed from the overweight kid to the fittest in my class. The questions changed from 'How many Oreos did you eat last night?' to 'How much can you bench?' The girls started noticing me, and I began hanging out with older kids, which also introduced me to drinking. Surprisingly, alcohol seemed to fix something inside me that I didn't even know was broken. That broken piece was my constant craving for my father's love and attention. When I became more confident with my physique, I felt like I could finally be seen as his son, like someone who could live up to his standards. I channeled this desire for approval and acceptance into muscle-building, alcohol, and other pursuits. It was my way of seeking validation and striving to be a man in his eyes. [18:56] When did you start drinking and how did it affect you, knowing others may relate to this experience? I started my journey with alcohol at a young age, and it began innocently enough. It wasn't as if I had a drink and then suddenly found myself carrying around a paper bag filled with booze at school the next day. It initially revolved around Friday and Saturday nights during middle school and early high school, occasionally spilling into weekdays. What I quickly realized was that alcohol provided a boost to my confidence, not arrogance. It was like a different version of me emerged, one that could engage with anyone. However, the desire to drink again grew stronger, and I wasn't content with just the weekends or post-game celebrations. I even obtained a fake driver's license to buy alcohol. When I got to Arizona State University, known as the top party school, I wholeheartedly embraced the sex, drugs, and rock and roll lifestyle. Alcohol became my first commandment, an ingrained part of my identity. It progressed over time, and it's what makes alcoholism and addiction a disease, not just a disorder. This disease has four key components: it's progressive, meaning it gets worse over time, chronic, always present, primary, and potentially fatal. I had no awareness of being an alcoholic or an addict at the time; I saw myself as a 'work hard, play hard' kind of person. [22:48] What was your wake-up moment that prompted change? I'd like to express my gratitude for having me. I'm not sure if I mentioned it before, but thank you for inviting me to your home, the auto-shift, and the truck's house, and for the quality time I spent with you and your wonderful family. My journey had different stages, and the 'aww' moment for me was my intervention. It was a moment when the people who loved me the most surrounded me and read heartfelt letters, all following a similar format. They expressed their love and admiration for me and then delved into the reality of what I'd been doing. They recounted instances like when I drove my nephew while drunk or nearly slipped with my daughter down the stairs, using these memories as a plea for me to seek help. That was the initial part of my 'aha' moment. The major part came nine days later when I entered a treatment facility. It was there that I had a profound spiritual experience. For me, it wasn't an intense, blinding, spiritual awakening like Bill Wilson's, but rather it felt like a part of my ego was dying. This transformation manifested in the form of a panic attack. My heart rate skyrocketed, well over 180, and it was a distressing experience. But this mental shift was necessary for a new version of me to emerge. When I surrendered and accepted the need for change, my heart rate returned to normal, and I left the facility as a new person. This experience showed me that sometimes, something within us needs to transform or 'die' for a new, healthier version of ourselves to emerge. [25:36] Did you have a support system or was it more of a personal journey? I was never alone. You may have heard of the poem 'Footprints,' where a person talks to God about two sets of footprints turning into one during their hardest moments. From family intervention to a treatment center with excellent support, I learned to be authentic. I used to put on a fake smile to hide my problems, but even then, I was never truly alone. God was always there. [38:20] Did the work you do in building a pathway to personal development connect with or influence the Hero Project in any way? Certainly, the Hero Project is my coaching program, but it's unique in that it's not a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, it's tailored to each individual's specific needs. We guide individuals through the Hero's Journey, which typically involves a separation phase, like breaking free from addiction or fear. Then there's an initiation process where we teach new skills and beliefs, helping individuals become more empowered. However, often the biggest challenge is confronting inner demons or fears that reside within us. This may involve difficult conversations or making courageous choices. Ultimately, in every hero's journey, there's a return home, not as a conqueror, but as a better, more evolved person, leading by example. That's what my life is all about – guiding people through their own Hero's Journey. [40:30] Do you seek that turning point where people decide to work with you, or do you try to address their hesitations when they're unsure if it's the right fit? Many times, people come to me when they've reached their own version of rock bottom, whether it's spiritual, financial, emotional, or mental. Often, it's a family member, spouse, agent, or sports team that reaches out, convinced that the person is ready for help, even if they claim not to be. My role isn't to convince but to establish a common language, using metaphors like 'tires win the race' to make them understand the need for change and participation, whether they're athletes or entrepreneurs.
