Bodybuilders from worst critic to best salesman
| June 8, 2009 |
Bodybuilders live a mixed reality. On one hand, they serve as their own worst critic, believing there's always room to improve. On the other, they must unabashedly market themselves to the judges, prove that there is absolutely nobody better on stage at that moment.
The competitors complete their 90-second routines with apparent ease, but that skill, they say, is the result of months of strict dieting and a grueling regimen of weightlifting, stretching and other exercises.
Make the commitment and be serious about it. We're our own worst critics. You never feel like you’re ready, that there's always something else you can do to become better.
The show itself is the "glamour part", the rest of the time is spent in the weight room.
