DIARY OF THE BLACK PRINCE 


I LIKE TO LOOK BACK AND SEE MYSELF IN MY CLOSET GYM AT 727 WEST WALES STREET - TALLAHASSEE, FLA - DURING MY EARLY TEENS. I THINK ABOUT ALL THAT I HAVE ACCOMPLISHED IN A WORLD THAT PUT WALLS IN FRONT OF YOU SO HIGH EVEN YOU HAVE DOUBTS. 

I’M AMAZED I WAS ABLE TO SCALE TO THE TOP AND GET THE OPPORTUNITY TO ENJOY THE BEAUTIFUL VIEW. 

LIMITS LIKE FEARS ARE OFTEN JUST AN ILLUSION

I’M SO PROUD OF MYSELF FOR CHALLENGING MY THINKING MINDSET. BY ASKING, -WHAT DO YOU WANT YOUR PRESENCE TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH? 

FEEL THE FEELINGS 
YOU WANT OTHERS TO FEEL AROUND YOU 
- ENTHUSIASM, DRIVE, DETERMINATION OPTIMISM - 
MAKING IT EASY FOR OTHERS AROUND YOU 
TO FEEL GOOD! 

I ALWAYS WANTED TO HOLD MYSELF TO A HIGHER STANDARD, I WANTED TO INSPIRE OTHERS TO MAKE A GREATER EFFORT. A HUGE FAN OF POSITIVE SELF-TALK MAKING SURE, IT WAS ALWAYS POSITIVE AND AFFIRMING. 

I SPENT LONG HOURS IN FRONT OF THAT MIRROR IN THE CLOSET DEVELOPING MY SELF IMAGE, SELF-PERCEPTION,THINKING OF MYSELF IN A POSITIVE LIGHT. EVEN WHEN YOU HEAR OTHERS SAYING WITH A SNICKER; "HE’LL NEVER MAKE IT." TAKING THE TIME TO INTERRUPT THOSE NEGATIVE THOUGHT PATTERNS BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY. 

PRACTICE GENERATING ENERGY FROM WITHIN, GUARDING MY ENERGY WITH A PASSION, SEEING MYSELF AS I WANT TO BE, ACT AS IF CALM, CONFIDENT, FEEL GREAT ABOUT MYSELF. 

BUILDING OTHER’S SELF ESTEEM 
WILL ALSO HELP TO BUILD YOUR OWN
MY GOAL IS TO CONSCIOUSLY STAND GUARD AT THE DOOR OF MY MIND AND ONLY ALLOW TO ENTER THINGS WHICH WILL STRENGTHEN AND ENRICH MY LIFE AND WORK. FOREVER YOUNG, THRIVING...

2009 NPA YORKSHIRE CHAMPIONSHIP - REAL MUSCLE MACHINES

SOME OF US GOT THE WHOLE PACKAGE

ROBBY ROBINSON AND COURTNEY
AT THE NPA-YORKSHIRE CHAMPIONSHIP
 IN LEEDS, ENGLAND 2009

COURTNEY AT 17 YRS OLD

Robby,
I hope you're well.

I've attached a photo of us meeting together at Batley on May 31st and a picture of the venue of the NPA Yorkshire open.

I've attached a photo of me flexing my skinny muscles in my bedroom in 1980 and the other one from the front with the abs is from 1981 and as you can see,there's you on the wall doing a side triceps pose.

I wasn't quite at my best at the Yorkshire but was in considerably better condition on 5th July when I took a close 3rd in the NPA South West of England championships when there was 1 point between the top 3 as I took 3rd out of 6.


COURTNEY - 3 SIDE TRICEPS SHOTS

The winner was Wesley Clarke 2 time natural world champ.

Some of the judges did place me first but I have managed to qualify for the British finals in October.

If you'd like to read my profile it's on www.npabodybuilding.com and feel free to use any pictures or information you want to.

Thanks for your interest.
Courtney

SUPER MOM

JAMMIN' WITH FRANK


PULL DOWNS TO THE FRONT



14 PERFECT PUSH -UPS


DIARY OF THE BLACK PRINCE 

AT THE LA AIRPORT ON SATURDAY MORNING WHEN I PICKED UP THE CASACCIO FAMILY: GARY, JUDY, BRETT AND KYLE, JUDY IMMEDIATELY CAUGHT MY ATTENTION WITH HER TAKE CHARGE ATTITUDE. IN MY MIND, I SAID, THIS LADY HAS POP, A GO GETTER! 

THEIR 1 WEEK STAY WAS A MEMORIAL EXPERIENCE. IT'S NOT OFTEN YOU GET A WHOLE FAMILY TOTALLY INTO BEING PHYSICALLY FIT. I’M TALKING SERIOUS; MINDSET, EFFORT AND DETERMINATION. NOT JUST FROM ONE BUT EVERYBODY WAS INTO IT, LEAVING NO HOLDS BARRED. 

YOU HAD TO ADMIRE THEIR FOCUS. I TOTALLY ENJOYED TRAINING THEM AND GIVING THEM THE RIGHT EATING AND TRAINING ADVICE TO ACHIEVE THEIR GOALS OF THE MOST FIT FAMILY IN AMERICA I HAVE COME IN CONTACT WITH SINCE STARTING MY MASTER CLASS 1 WEEK TRAINING ULTIMATE LIFESTYLE. 

YOU EXPECT GUYS TO GO BALLS TO THE WALL, BUT WHEN MOMS TAKE OVER, LOOK OUT. JUDY'S A TRIATHLETE, WIFE, SPORTS MOM AND PROFESSIONAL HYGIENIST. NOW YOU UNDERSTAND WHY SHE WAS PUSHING THE MEN IN HER LIFE. SHE RAN AND WALKED UP AND DOWN THE 196 SANTA MONICA STAIRS 4 TIMES, EXECUTED 14 PERFECT PUSH-UPS AND LIFTED THE IRON WITH EASE. 

I’M VERY IMPRESSED, IN AWE. 
MY HAT OFF TO YOU, JUDY CASACCIO! 
YOU ARE MY MOM OF THE YEAR. 

UPON MEETING JUDY YOU COULD FEEL AND SEE SHE WAS SPECIAL. THAT'S HOW WE GOT INVOLVED WITH THIS 10 QUESTION INTERVIEW.


1. JUDY, WERE YOU AN ATHLETE IN HIGH SCHOOL OR COLLEGE? WHAT SPORTS DID YOU PARTICIPATE IN?

I was a swimmer, water polo player, pom-pom girl and softball player. I was fortunate to have 3 older brothers who were active and later in the Marines; they kept us younger sisters active.

2. WHAT GOT YOU INTO BECOMING A TRIATHLON ATHLETE? DO YOU ENJOY THE DUALS AND CHALLENGES?
I became a triathlete in 1988. I was working and a patient said their swimmer had just became pregnant and they were going to have to drop out of their relay. I said, “I know how to swim.” That was the start. The next year I did the whole race myself. I have been blessed to be able to still participate in the sport now. I love racing.

3. WHAT INSPIRES YOU TO KEEP SUCH A PUSH - PUSH SCHEDULE?
I hate to buy jeans..... I like how I feel after a good workout, and I like the benefits that come from exercise. I enjoy challenging myself and I like the challenge of trying to outperform my previous workout; ie..I hate to buy new jeans...

4. WITH SUCH A BUSY SCHEDULE DO YOU EVER TAKE “A JUDY TIME OUT” WHERE YOU JUST PAMPER AND RELAX?
All the time. Life is a balance. I love to read, watch Criminal Minds and The Closer.

5. WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU LIKE TO GIVE ALL THOSE MOMS OUT THERE WHO DON’T PUSH TO THE EDGES AND MAINTAIN SOME TYPE OF PHYSICALLY FIT ROUTINE WITH A BUSY SCHEDULE..
Get up early. When the boys were younger I was up sometimes at 4:30. Glad those days are over. Oh--get a dog, walking early in the morning clears my mind for the day.

6. YOU ARE A BEAUTIFUL, PHYSICALLY FIT, HARD WORKING PROFESSIONAL. DO YOU THINK BEING FIT PLAYS A ROLE WHEN IT COMES TO YOUR DESIRE, DRIVE AND ENERGY LEVEL.
Yes, when work sometimes gets crazy, I can multitask and roll with the flow much better when I have ran or did some kind of activity that morning. Being fit definitely helps me to maintain high energy levels.

7. DO YOU FOLLOW A GOOD EATING PLAN THAT ENABLES YOU TO REMAIN SO FIT AND ENERGETIC?
Yes and no. I eat 3 good meals a day with a spinach salad at night, but, I’m a sugar junkie. I’m now trying, thanks to your and Arden’s example, to eat more fruit and trail mix for snacks. It’s hard.. those packages of Swedish Fish keep calling me.

8. JUDY, HOW OFTEN DO YOU COMPETE IN TRIATHLON EVENTS? WILL YOU BE CHANGING OVER TO MORE GYM WORKOUTS AFTER YOUR WORKOUT AT THE RR ULTIMATE 1 WEEK MASTER CLASS IN VENICE CA?
This year I took off from competition. I’m hoping to compete in a 1/2 ironman next year and if all goes well compete in my second full ironman in 2-4 years. I’m now lifting 2-3 times per week since our visit, and I’m doing stairs now after every lifting workout. You and Arden really helped me with my mind/body connection and having the right mindset. I’m always checking my posture and thinking about proper body alignment and body mechanics.

9. BESIDE BEING A GREAT MOM AND WIFE WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE HOBBIES? Biking, I’m part of a biking group that I love. I also enjoy reading, gardening, being outside and with friends.

10. DO YOU THINK YOUR BODY WORK SESSION WITH DEAN MURRAY IMPROVED YOUR VISION OF YOUR BODY MECHANICS AND YOUR SPECIFIC DETAILS TO WATCH? DID IT ALSO RELAX YOU?
Dean was great. As I mentioned earlier, I am much more aware of the importance of proper alignment while training; that is something I never really thought about before but can see how it can improve performance and also prevent injury. And, “yes” I felt very relaxed after my session.

THANKS, JUDY.

PEACE ROBBY

DAVID IS GOLIATH

ROBBY ROBINSON'S MASTER CLASS - VENICE, CA.
David J in Master Class with Robby Robinson
www.robbyrobinson.net//dvd_master_class.php
DIARY OF THE BLACK PRINCE

DAVID J. CAME TO ME ABOUT 5 MONTHS AGO, WANTING ALL THE INSIDE SCOOP ON BUILDING MUSCLE AND BURNING FAT. 

DAVID IS ALSO ONE OF THE RR 7 PACK TEAMMATES. 

LIKE SO MANY OTHERS, HIS DREAM IS TO PUT IN THE WORK THAT WILL GIVE HIM THAT MUSCULAR PHYSIQUE HE ENVISIONS. HE CONSTANTLY STAYED IN CONTACT. 

HIS GREAT ATTITUDE ABOUT HAVING TO GO OVER THINGS SO HE THORUGHLY DIGESTS THE INFORMATION HAS ENABLED HIM TO START SEEING MAJOR CHANGES IN HIS PHYSIQUE. 

Robby Robinson at Marina Gym Center, CA
www.robbyrobinson.net/dvd_built.php
BUT THERE WAS SOMETHING DIFFERENT ABOUT DAVID. LIKE A TECHNICIAN HE ENJOYED GOBBLING UP KNOWLEDGE. 

IN OVER TIME, HE HAS LEARNED WHAT WORKS BEST FOR DAVID WHEN IT COMES TO TRAINING, EATING AND SUPPLEMENTATION. 

HE INSPIRED ME TO CORRESPOND WITH HIM BECAUSE OF HIS DESIRE TO TAKE HIS PHYSIQUE TO THE NEXT LEVEL THAT MEANS MORE INTENSE STUDY OF DETAIL ON BODY POSITIONING, TRAINING TECHNIQUES LIKE RYTHYM AND ONE’S MINDSET. 

HE DESIRED IT WITH ALL HIS HEART. 

HE BELIEVES HE CAN ACHIEVE IT AND EXPECTS TO GET IT. HE IS SUCCEEDING. 

BOTH DAVID AND LORNA J. CAME FOR A 1 WEEK VISIT TO MY ULTIMATE BODYBUILDING MASTER CLASS IN VENICE, CA. WE TRAINED AT MARINA GYM CENTER IN MARINA DEL REY, CA. 

MY HAT OFF TO DAVID AND LORNA. THEY BOTH ENDURED THE INTENSE WORK WEEK THAT PUT THEM ON THE RIGHT TRACK FOR EACH TO ACHIEVE THEIR GOAL OF A HEALTHY FIT, MORE TONED PHYSIQUE.

Robby, 
I believe my condition has improved since leaving CA 3+ weeks ago. I'm maintaining my weight but look LEANER. My legs have definitely grown over the past few weeks. I believe it has a lot to do with the exercise techniques you taught us along with the work Dean did on me. My legs and feet have no felt this good since my 20's. I have no doubt my leg muscles are being recruited properly.
Keep spreading the good word.
Dave and Lorna
HOLD YOURSELF RESPONSIBLE FOR A HIGHER STANDARD THAN ANYONE ELSE EXPECTS OF YOU. NEVER EXCUSE YOURSELF. 


SPEND 1 WEEK AT MY MASTER CLASS
IT COULD CHANGE YOUR LIFE




HEALTH IS WEALTH.
