DRAPER POSTS - BIG D TALKS

On Bodybuilding Hype

To the beginners and those of us who expound; be careful of what you read in the muscle mags. There are many on the market and competition for readers is fierce. Truly valuable material - the meat we need to get us where we are going -is limited and so becomes rehashed, redundant and unexciting [unsaleable]. Hence, the publishers fill the pages with fascinating, [perhaps] and abstruse scientific research 95% useless to us, as if what we do and seek here were deeply profound. The remainder of the mag is filled with articles about the champs and their routines. The editors often embellish upon the submitted material to offer entertainment and visual aids to sell and hype stuff. Buy. Buy. Takes a couple of reads to learn how to glean.

Beware. Don't compare yourself to Dorian or Dillette or Flex. We're talkin' tractors, cranes and bulldozers here. What they do and how they do it works for them. Appreciate it, register it and be inspired. Can you even imagine the different chemistry they have than you? Be yourself. This, of course, takes some discovery. I'm still at it.

Mid volume, moderate-weight training provides training familiarity, needed practice of form, muscle and attachment conditioning, muscle molding and sensible focus for early on trainers. Heavy stuff should be a grand choice as one's mental- physical structure and training personality emerge.

I like an instinctive mix that comes to one as a dividend from time invested.

A good n hard road to travel. No short cuts. Keep it alive.

Train on. draper.
