[QUOTE="Donnie Moreland, post: 4725, member: 380"] We have all read the many fitness and bodybuilding magazines that have been on the market for the last 6 decades. The larger than life aesthetics of the cover models and fitness professionals that graced the pages of [I]MuscaleMag[/I] and [I]Flex Magazine[/I] intrigued us and inspired us to train when we were adolescents. For many of us, we turn to those same magazines when we have inquires about how to perform a bent-fly or lateral pulldown. And while these publications still stand the test of time and more and more publications are placed on newsstands across the world, there does exists a problem. For the average man or woman, these fitness models and bodybuilders are superhuman, and for good reason. The dimensions of the body parts of these fitness professionals are similar to those of our favorite comic book heroes and heroines.The problem that exists is that many who read these publications can be tempted to emulate the diet and training schedules of these fitness professionals. Itis very attractive, the thought of a fifty-inch chest, twenty-inch biceps and a sharpened six pack, but the probability of possessing these physiques are slim to none and here are a few reasons why. Anabolic Steroids First and foremost, it is well known that the majority of fitness professionals use anabolic steroids, to some capacity. The health risks are astronomical and the lasting effects such as hormonal imbalance, testicular damage, stunted muscle growth and increased risk of heart complications are among the many damaging possibilities of use and abuse of anabolic steroids. Portion Size Many of the dietary choices of bodybuilders are not healthy for the average man. The science and meticulous nature of nutrient planning for many professional bodybuilders is not only unrealistic for a salary and family man or woman, but the amount of money that is needed to maintain a diet of 5,000 to 10,000 calories a day can put a deep, desolate and empty hole in your wallet. Training Understandably, the training programs of fitness professionals are sometimes exaggerated in publications and many lack discretionary warnings about the importance of consulting a physician on whether or not certain training methodologies are healthy for your specific physical development. A giant set for chest and shoulders may work for Phil Heath but may put you in a sling for a few weeks. So be kind to your body and live a lifestyle that is conducive to YOUR success. [/QUOTE]
