I Am a
Hardgainer (Only Because You Are Not Following The Proper Routine!)
Those who consider themselves
"hardgainers" are actually following ineffective training/diet
techniques, and will gain quickly when using the proper principles. I
could have permanently labeled myself a "hardgainer" at various times throughout
my muscle building pursuit (namely, at my 130 pound, 6'2" stage), but have found
that those citing the "hardgainer" mentality are actually following improper
diet and/or training techniques. Isn't it logical that one cannot begin to
make progress with a flawed game plan?
Yet, SO MANY label themselves
"genetically cursed" while having NEVER implemented an effective
diet/training combination!YOU ARE NOT PREDISPOSED TO SMALL MUSCLES, BUT
RATHER CREATE AN ADVERSE MUSCLE BUILDING ENVIRONMENT THROUGH INEFFECTIVE
DIET/TRAINING PRINCIPLES (thus, you become a "HARDGAINER"). Never forget
this! NOBODY is doomed to failure -- we create our own future, and ALL have the
capability of bringing about a tremendous physical presence. THIS IS A FACT!
Instead of assuming our genetics are flawed, why don't we begin to realize that
it is our diet and/or exercise routine that needs dramatic alterations?
I can't stress enough the importance of PROPER diet in achieving bodybuilding
success, especially to the natural aspirant. In fact, I like to think of food as
the "natural bodybuilder's steroid", because it will honestly
spell the difference between success and failure for the drug-free
lifter. Even with the perfect training program, a faulty diet will prevent
you from gaining an ounce of muscle mass, and for overweight lifters,
will prevent fat loss, which is a fact too few people realize (and a tidbit
you should NEVER forget).
