A 12 year old child sitting in a a park on a bench asks his mother that why this happened only to him. It were his vacations and he was so excited fot it just before he fell off the stairs and his foot got hurt badly. Looking at his swollen foot, he asks his mother when will it be fine. And the mother answers, very soon! He is all disappointed just when he notices another boy climbing up the swing and down, again up there and down again! The boy sitting on the bench, feeling all the more demotivated and unfortunate for not having been able to play like that boy, asks his mother if they could just go home. His mother seems to be busy in listening to another lady’s talks on phone. That lady was talking to the doctor. She seemed to be discussing his child’s cancer reports with him. And then she cuts the call and calls her son to get back home. And the same boy came rushing who was climbing up and down the swings. The boy and the mother, both are shocked!
Well, this is how life is. It’s not about how our lives are, but about how we look at it and deal with it. It’s about thinking positive always, being inspired and never go demotivated.
Such is the world of fitness, the world of bodybuilding. There are times and things that inspire us and also that demotivate us. It’s our own choice so as to how to look over them. If we look at the past, we realize how amazing inspirations have ever existed. How such people existed, who entirely redefined the words ‘fitness’ and body ‘building’. Some of these inspirations are:
Sylvester Stallone :
This man has proved the term right, ‘Age, no bar’. No matter, if he is in his forties, fifties or even sixties he is always the same as ever. Always as fit as ever. in fact, even better with passing age. Heart throb of many girls and women. This man has actually made a mark in the world of fitness. A completely fit and trimmed body is what he has always thrived for. And more than the credit of making it, he deserves the credit of maintaining it, that too for so long!
Arnold Schwarzenegger :
Arnold started with his weight training at the age of fifteen, and then won the title Mr. Universe at the age of twenty and went on to win the MR. Olympia contest for seven times. He has written many books and articles on this sport. He was alo an actor and a politician. Well, what can be hotter than this. A politician so hot and well build.
Frank Zane :
Again a name in the world of bodybuilding, which made it’s mark like no other. He won the Mr. Olympia contest for three consecutive times from 1977 to 1979. Zane is also amongst those only three people who have defeated Arnold Schwarzenegger in a body building contest. He also won Mr. America, Mr. Universe and Mr. World in his 20 year long career. He also received the Arnold Schwarzenegger lifetime achievement award in the year 2003 for his extreme dedication and long-time support of the sport.
A few inspirations for those who wants to conquer this world of bodybuilding. Always remember, it’s never an easy job, but nothing can ever be so difiicult for you to take it as an excuse of not doing the task!
