SHAPING THE BODY WITH POSING

SHAPING YOUR BODY WITH POSING - IT’S NOT JUST SOMETHING FOR A PRO OR AMATEUR BUT FOR EVERY TRAINEE. 

I LOVED 
FLEXING MY WORK
WHILE GROWING UP. 

BESIDES GIVING YOU MORE CONFIDENCE, POSING 

• HELPS IN CREATING A CLEARER ROUTE FOR NUTRIENTS TO TRAVEL INTO THE MUSCLE CELLS, 
• DEFINES CLEANER SEPARATION BETWEEN EACH MUSCLE GROUP AND 
• HELPS PROMOTE MUSCLE HARDNESS, SHAPE AND BETTER PUMPS. 

IT'S A BIG PART OF BODYBUILDING

THAT IS OFTEN OVERLOOKED

AGING YOUTHFULLY

AT MY AGE YOU SEEM TO SEE EVERYTHING WITH GREATER CLARITY AND UNDERSTANDING

BEING CONNECTED TO YOUR SPIRITUALITY PROMOTES A STRONGER YOU WHEN IT COMES TO HAVING TO DEAL WITH STRESS. 

YOUR PERSONAL SPIRITUALITY SYSTEM AFFECTS YOUR WELL-BEING AND HEALTH.

I CAN ONLY SPEAK FOR MYSELF - YOU ARE HAPPIER, MORE HOPEFUL, RECOVER FROM THINGS QUICKER AND ADAPT TO CHANGES THAT COME FROM AGING AND CHALLENGING SITUATIONS. 

A POSITIVE ATTITUDE WILL DEFINITELY HELP YOU LIVE LONGER

SELF-INVESTIGATION HELPS YOU GAIN UNDERSTANDING, WISDOM AND HAPPINESS. 

MEDITATING 15 - 20 MINUTES A DAY HELPS YOUR MIND BECOME HEALTHIER. IN RETURN THAT HELPS YOUR BODY AND MIND RESPOND BETTER TO CHALLENGES. 

AFTER RETIRING IN 2001 IT’S THE FINE TUNING THAT HAS MADE THE DIFFERENCE. 

PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE...

MAGIC IS IN THE DETAIL

DURING MY TRAINING SESSIONS WITH CHRIS "CC" CORMIER my goal is to get him to FOCUS on being in that “FIRST CALL-OUT”. 

THAT MEANS DOING
WHAT YOUR COMPETITORS
AREN'T DOING

In the TRUE ART OF BODY-BUILDING this doesn’t mean lifting heavier weight, it’s INTENSIFYING your focus on the DETAILS in the exercise. 

CHRIS CORMIER - BENCH BICEPS CURLS
● www.robbyrobinson.net//master-class.php ● 

I call them POINTERS, such as

• PUSHING with your ELBOWS during all pressing movements,
  .
• PULLING with your ELBOWS and thinking of your HANDS as HOOKS during back movements,
  .
• working for the BURN in the MUSCLE CORE,
  .
• CONTROLLING the weight,
  .
• ENVISIONING how you want the muscle to look. 

CHRIS CORMIER - BENCH BICEPS CURLS
● www.robbyrobinson.net/consultation.php ●

It takes PRACTICE and SKILL to COMMAND all these POINTERS during every set and every rep. 

Working with Chris has given me a whole

NEW APPRECIATION FOR BODYBUILDING 

because I find it fascinating how quickly all these pointers have had an effect on his already incredible physique.

EATING FROM A GREAT MENU DURING MY LIFETIME HAS BEEN THE FOUNDATION OF MY LONGEVITY AND YOUTHFULNESS

HAVING THE RIGHT EATING PLAN WILL ENHANCE YOUR MIND AND BODY WITH DESIRE AND ENERGY. 

IT WILL MAKE OR BREAK THE BODY-BUILDER BECAUSE IT'S THE FOUNDATION OF BUILDING A BODY.

AT 61 YEARS OLD, I’M PUMPED. 

WHETHER IT’S BEING TOUGH ON MYSELF DURING MY WORKOUTS OR IN THE STUDIO WORKING ON MY NEXT KOI PIECE WITH SCARF AND WALL HANGER DESIGNER ARDEN NUTT ---- 

THERE IS THIS LUST FOR LIFE AND ACCOMPLISHMENT THAT BURNS DEEP. 

YOUR SUCCESS IS MEASURED 

BY YOUR WILLINGNESS 

TO KEEP TRYING 

THE 7 MANDATORY POSES

POSING is the secret to a hard, dense, more separated muscular PHYSIQUE with definition. We are talking that "FREAKY" KIND OF PHYSIQUE, YOU CAN ONLY ACHIEVE that by spending time in the posing room and treating the session with the same intensity you should be putting into your workout and doing it 3 days a week. 

You can do the work alone like I did, but some will benefit more by having a coach to guide and push you. I have found the first couple of sessions allows the coach and the trainee to develop a comfortable energy with the work that has to be done by both parties. 

CC’s GOAL IS TO BE IN THAT FIRST CALL OUT. Your mindset should shift into warrior mode the minute you walk into your gym. That’s the same way I feel about the posing room. 

You have to be ready to work. 

IT’S BALLS TO THE WALL OR DON’T GO INTO THE ROOM.

peace, Robby

MASSIVE PUMPS

YESTERDAY WAS ARMS WITH "CC"

During intense focused workloads, you lose the sense of your surroundings.

IT'S A NATURAL HIGH!

WHEN THE MIND-TO-MUSCLE CONNECTION HAS MATURED AND INTENSIFIED IN AN EXERCISE, IT'S INCREDIBLE WHAT YOU CAN ACHIEVE

To see CC reach that level during this week of work -- I know it’s the beginning of a whole new career when it comes to him -- ACHIEVING a HARD, DENSE, AESTHETIC, MUSCULAR COMPETITIVE PHYSIQUE.

CHRIS CORMIER - CANADA PRO 2007
● www.robbyrobinson.net/dvd_built.php ●

He’s seeing already how important it is to DISCIPLINE your mindset to work those 7 MANDATORY POSES and hiring someone who knows the language. 

He's always had a respect for the OLD SCHOOL. 

I think all his fans will appreciate his HARD! work and effort.

You may have heard the JOE GOLD’s third and last WORLD GYM in the Venice area closed this summer. 

ROY GOLDMAN put up a heartfelt effort to take over a pricey lease, but it was out of reach. 

WORLD GYM
WAS A BIG PART OF VENICE AND THE MECCA OF BODY-BUILDING

It was the current home of Zabo, Eddie Guilliani, Steve Strong, Bill Pettis and many other O.G. of Bodybuilding’s Golden Era.

WORKOUT AT WORLD GYM VENICE, CA
● www.robbyrobinson.net//master-class.php ●

Joe REALLY put together the best gyms, wielding many of the custom machines, dumbbells and cable handles. 

IT WAS MY HOME, 
away from the spotlight and scene over at Gold’s Gym. 

All of World's members were upset with it’s closing and have since scattered to different gyms. 

I have returned to Gold’s for some of my workouts. 

On my third day I ran into CC - CHRIS CORMIER. 

It was a great welcome for him to ask me the next day to work with his preparation for the "O".

PAYS OFF!

If you desire to make QUALITY MUSCLE GAINS and BE IN THAT FIRST CALL OUT, the only way to get there is OLD SCHOOL.

We’re talking CRAZY PUMPS. The kind like the one we got on LEG DAY - where the QUADS give way when you walk.

MACHINE WORK 
IS SOMETHING TO BE INCORPORATED INTO OCCASIONAL WORKOUTS TO GIVE THE JOINTS AND CONNECTIVE TISSUE A BREAK FROM THE POUNDING FROM THE BASIC BARBELLS AND DUMBBELLS AND CABLE WORK. 

THE BODY AND MIND WILL ALSO ENJOY AND RESPOND TO THE CHANGE

BUT WORKING THE BASICS IS HOW YOU DEVELOP THE KIND OF PHYSIQUE WITH MUSCULAR DEVELOPMENT THAT YOUR COMPETITORS AND FRIENDS WILL BE ENVIOUS OF. 

GOOD DIGESTION IS THE KEY TO YOUR SUCCESS

RELAXED MEALS

Meals eaten in a HURRY or UNDER STRESS contribute to POOR DIGESTION.

TRANSFORMER - 7 MANDATORY POSES

CHRIS "CC" CORMIER --- 

THIS WEEK IN GOLDS GYM, VENICE, I WORKED WITH CHRIS FOR AN HOUR ON THE 7 BASIC MANDATORY POSES. 

THIS KIND OF WORK IN THE POSING ROOM WILL MAKE BEING ON STAGE EXCITING FOR HIM BECAUSE IT WILL CONDITION HIM TO THE HEAVY DEMANDS OF POSING ON STAGE. 

HIS POSING SESSIONS (TOUGH AS A WORKOUT) WILL MAKE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WINNING AND LOSING. 

ALL YOU, CORMIER FANS,
GET READY FOR THE NEW TRANSFORMER!

“I HAVE A DREAM OF BEING IN THAT FIRST CALL OUT“

I’LL KEEP YOU POSTED ON OUR PROGRESS.

A FOUNDATION CAN’T BE BUILT WITH ALL THOSE SWEET DRINKS, BARS AND HVY PROTEIN POWDERS, AND IT ESPECIALLY CAN’T BE BUILT WITH ANABOLIC STEROIDS. 

DURING MY CAREER I HAVE SEEN MANY ATTEMPT TO GET THE JOB DONE BUT FAIL TO ACHIEVE THIS GOAL AND ARE LEFT WITH NOTHING AFTER THEY DISCONTINUE STEROIDS AND REALIZE, THE “MASS” THEY ACHIEVED FROM POWDERS IS PURELY WATER AND FAT.

HARD WORK, BOTH EATING AND TRAINING, COMPLETED ON A CONSISTENT TIME CLOCK HAS ALWAYS BEEN MY PROGRAM THROUGHOUT MY SUCCESSFUL BODYBUILDING CAREER.

WITH 45 YEARS OF EXPERIMENTING WITH MY OWN PHYSIQUE, BOTH MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY, I CAN SAY,

I’VE GOT THE GAME DOWN!

IT TAKES 100% MENTAL CONVICTION!
