STRENGTH OF A WOMAN GAVE ME STRENGTH

THE STRENGTH OF A WOMAN IS A SPECIAL STRENGTH. IT WORKS OUT IN SO MANY DIFFERENT WAYS THAN HER TESTOSTERONE DRIVEN MALE COUNTERPART. 

THE STRENGTH OF A WOMAN CAPTIVATED ME AT A VERY YOUNG AGE, OBSERVING MY MOTHERS STRENGTHS WHILE GROWING UP. 

SELF DRIVEN, BEAUTIFUL AND FULL OF ENERGY - THIS WOMAN COULD DO SO MUCH WITH SO LITTLE. SOME OF THE THINGS I OBSERVED WERE KIND OF SPIRITUAL-LIKE. AWESOME IN A CHILD’S WORLD. 

I STILL GET FLASHBACKS OF HER PERFORMANCES IN THE KITCHEN COOKING, DOING THE HOUSE AND FARM CHORES, USING THE HORSE TO PLOW ROWS FOR CORN AND TOMATOES, POTATOES AND STRING BEANS. 

SHE SPECIALIZED IN VEGETABLE GARDENING, THE ONE WITH EVERY KIND OF FRESH VEGETABLE ON THE MARKET. ALL THE NEIGHBORS BROUGHT VEGGIES FROM HER - 7 DAYS A WEEK SHE MADE A LIVING FROM IT FOR YEARS. 

I CREDITED MY MOTHER FOR MY SUCCESSES. SHE GAVE ME THE COURAGE TO GO AFTER WHAT I MOST DESIRED - BODYBUILDING, COVERS OF MUSCLE BUILDER AND FLEX MAGAZINES AND FINANCIAL SECURITY. 

I THINK MY MOTHER MADE IT CLEAR THAT YOU HAVE TO LIVE LIFE BY YOUR OWN TERMS AND NOT WORRY ABOUT WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK. 

YOU HAVE TO HAVE THE COURAGE TO DO THE UNEXPECTED - YOU HAVE TO PROVE YOURSELF AND WORK TWICE AS AS HARD AS EVERYONE ELSE.

LEGENDS OF THE GAME - NIGHT OF THE CHAMPIONS

THE FIRST NOC - IN MY WORLD, NOTHING COULD STOP MY MINDSET AND DESIRE TO WIN

MY FIRST PROFESSIONAL COMPETITION WAS A KNOCKOUT FOR ME AND A SOLD OUT EVENT FOR THE SPORT AND OPENED UP A WHOLE NEW WORLD FOR BODYBUILDING - PROFESSIONAL BODYBUILDING.

BEFORE THIS SHOW, BODYBUILDING WAS MORE OF A SHOW. 

RIGHT AFTER THE NIGHT OF THE CHAMPIONS, THE IFBB STARTED ALL THE GRAND PRIX. 

HARD COLD FACT, THERE IS NOTHING LIKE STANDING UP THERE AMONG YOUR FELLOW COMPETITORS WITH ALL THE PHOTOGRAPHERS FLASHING LIGHTS AND MEDIA ATTENTION - SEEING YOUR AWARD WINNING PHYSIQUE ON THE PAGES OF FLEX MAGAZINE - KNOCKING DOWN PRIZE WINNING POSES ON STAGE.

WINNING THE FIRST NIGHT OF THE CHAMPIONS WAS A PIECE OF BODYBUILDING FOLKLORE THAT STILL STANDS OUT IN MY MIND. 

I WORKED WITH A YOUNG NEW WEIDER PROMOTER, WAYNE DEMILIA AND BECOME THE FIRST COMPETITOR TO ASSIST IN PROMOTING THE IFBB AND BODYBUILDING IN THE BRIGHT LIGHTS OF NY-CITY. 

NO LIMO - WE WALKED ALL OVER THE CITY TO THE DIFFERENT GYMS WITH ME DRAGGING MY SUITCASE, FRUITS AND WATER. WHEN I RE-LIVE THIS EXCITING MOMENT OF MY CAREER, I’M STILL AMAZED I WAS ABLE TO WIN THAT SHOW.

DANNY PADILLA? 

I HAD NEVER HEARD OF DANNY PADILLA WHO WAS EXTREMELY GENETICALLY BLESSED WITH AN INCREDIBLE MASTER PIECE OF MUSCLES FROM TOP TO BOTTOM. 

BUT IN MY WORLD, NOTHING COULD STOP MY MINDSET AND DESIRE TO WIN. 

EVERYTHING WAS SO NEW BACK THEN. I HAD NO IDEA ABOUT PEAKING OR CARB LOADING TO ENSURE MY VICTORY. 

I JUST FELT LIKE A REAL HE-MAN AND NOTHING COULD CONQUER ME. 

WITH ARNOLD'S RETIRING, I FELT MY PHYSIQUE WAS THE NEXT INCREDIBLE MASTER PIECE OF MUSCLE ART. I HAD A FEROCIOUS AND UNCONQUERABLE FIGHTING SPIRIT - NO PAIN. 

THE WARRIOR IS NOT BURDENED WITH THE OPINIONS OF OTHERS

HE LEARNS FROM HIS SUCCESSES AND FAILURES

BE WILLING TO TAKE RISK

DON’T MAKE EXCUSES, MAKE PROGRESS

EATING FOR PERFORMANCE

▶ www.robbyrobinson.net/anabolic-pack.php

• 1/2 LB TENDER STEW BEEF, 
• BROCCOLI, 
• CARROTS, 
• TOMATOES, 
• 3 SMALL YUKON GOLD POTATOES, 
• 1 TBS OLIVE OIL 
• 1 TBS FLAX POWDER. 

YUMMY, YUMMY!
GOOD 
FOR YOUR TUMMY!

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

AT ANY LEVEL NUTRITION 

IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTOR 

FOR EXERCISE AND ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE

1. 65 & 75 PERCENT OF A HIGH PERFORMANCE EATING PLAN SHOULD BE IN UNREFINED, CLEAN-BURNING COMPLEX CARBOHYDRATES LIKE THOSE FROM STEEL CUT OATS, PASTA, VEGGIES, BLACK AND SHORT GRAIN BROWN RICE.
   .
2. HIGH QUALITY PROTEINS, EVEN INCLUDING BLACK / RED BEANS ARE THE KEY TO STRENGTH AND ENDURANCE, FOR BOTH BODYBUILDERS AND ATHLETES.
   .
3. FRUITS, GIVING THE MOISTNESS AND EASY DIGESTED RECOVERY, SHOULD BE INCLUDED FOR IMPROVED PERFORMANCE PROMOTES STORAGE OF MUSCLE FUEL AND ARE EASILY ABSORBED WITHOUT EXCESS FAT. 

THAT IS WHY I STILL LOOK MODERN TODAY

As a top competitor the hardest thing to do once you know you have taken something to the limit, as I have, is to give it up and stop pushing further. 

TO GROW WEARY IN LIFE

IS NOT MY KING

That’s the value of my sport and art - BODYBUILDING. 

All those competitions placing 2nd all those times mean nothing - and they mean EVERYTHING HAVING STRENGTHENED ME. 

Thinking I haven’t poured myself into emptiness for 27 years for nothing, is what I’ve got to do to stay alive. 

I’ve got to find the unlimited scope of human possibility within myself and keep working on my craft to CONCEIVE THE INCONCEIVABLE.
