With 2 weeks to go till the FLEX Pro, I've begun my purification process. Every evening I light a huge bonfire in my backyard, do some Indian chants and incantations, and I channel my Indian spirits (ed note: Ben believes that all black people have a little Indian blood in them). Just last night, while in the backyard, as the sweat trickled down my face and I gazed through the beads of water that dripped from my eyebrows, I had a premonition! The Showstopper has been reborn!
I just got back from World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) Tuesday Night SMACKDOWN at the Nassau Coliseum here in Long Island, New York. I've been to at least 10 of these events, already, and I'm still amazed by the incredible spectacle that that the WWE is able to assemble on a bi-weekly basis. Monday Night Raw and Tuesday Night Smackdown are weekly stables on cable television but to witness it, first hand, in person, 5 rows back from the sweat, blood, and hand-to-hand combat is just something else.
I'm in the home stretch now. Anybody who knows about dieting, or should I say ‘dieting correctly', knows that during the last few weeks days become nights, and nights become days. And time is obsolete. I'm still training with ultra-heavy weights which amaze most people. They think that as you get leaner, you get weaker, but that's just not the case with my body
My name is Oto Livingston and I'm both a fan of bodybuiding as well as an avid bodybuilder myself. I'd like to give you what I call the "European Perspective" on what I believe will be one of the most anticipated events of 2011.
The IFBB season is upon us and what better way to start off the year than a show in the Mecca of Bodybuilding-Venice, CA. The Flex Pro will be taking place on the 19th of February at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium, California. Right off the bat, this show will be a hodgepodge of all types-- seasoned veterans, upcoming stars and rookies pro-- all throwing their hat into this contest for the chance to be crowned the first ever IFBB Flex Pro Champion.
January 23, 2011. By now, most of you have heard that 96-year old Jack LaLanne died at his Morro Bay, California home of respiratory failure (due to pneumonia). But rather than dwell on his death; let's reflect on the life he led, without which there would be no fitness revolution in this country today.
Jack LaLanne was the first guy I ever witnessed doing jumping jacks; or any exercise for that matter. I remember as a kid trying to emulate all the exercises that he performed on his TV show-- the longest running exercise program in television history (1950s to 1970s).
