Go Heavy

When training the legs, use a heavy weight and decent form.  Don’t be scared by how hard you will breathe during your leg training.

Go Intense

When training the legs, up the intensity.  Go beyond.  Don’t let the pain stop you from achieving your goals.  Remember, larger legs means the rest of your body should be larger as well.

Go to Failure

When training the legs, take your sets to failure.  This will generate maximum stimulation for your muscles and skyrocket your growth potential. 

Go Feed Your Muscles

It isn’t just your legs that need to be fed.  Always eat correctly before and after your training.  This will help to build muscle and aide in the recovery of your legs after your tough workouts.

Skip reminds me of Carlos DeJesus in so many ways.  He doesn’t believe in being dogmatic.  He refuses to tell you exactly what will work for you because he believes you have to discover that for yourself.  Skip is very patient with the callers to his bodybuilding show and takes his time to get his message across.  I’ve spoken in the past about Skip and his radio program and just how impressed I’ve been with the information he shares.

Marc is known as the No Bull Bodybuilding Guy for a reason—he doesn’t mess around.  Marc will tell you what is on his mind.  He is passionate about bodybuilding and fitness.  Like me, he believes there is too much bogus information out there.  He also believes, like me, that too many people are in the fitness game just for the money and for no other reason. 

Marc has some excellent materials available on his websites.  His informative site, http://www.justaskmarc.com, is all about bodybuilding and how the average Joe can get the most out of it.  His blog site is http://www.bodybuildingsecretslive.com. 

Marc is the type of guy you are going to want to connect with.  He can also be found on Twitter:  @marc_david  If you are looking for a bodybuilding coach you can trust, Marc is definitely that guy.

This was the start of my nutritional studies.  For some reason the nutritional aspect of fitness really got my interest and it stuck with me.  I have done more studying and reading about nutrition than I have about weight training.  To me, the training comes easy.  I understand it and I live it.  The nutritional aspect was much more difficult to me and so I set out to study it and understand it fully.

I have found that Tom Venuto does not get involved in selling bogus products.  He doesn’t promote people with crazy ideas.  Tom is very selective about whom he supports and that is a good thing.  You can trust what you read on Tom’s sites and in his books.  I sometimes wish Tom would do more on the internet to help cut through the garbage that is continually put out on the market.  I would like to see Tom do more teleseminars and publish more reviews of the various systems that are available on the web.

I have tried many of his training suggestions and I can’t complain.  While he has a different philosophy than I do, I find that his training ideas are effective.  He does not disappoint!

As you all know, I am very concerned about the garbage that is infiltrating people’s minds via internet “gurus” of today.  I believe that you really need to check out everyone before you can trust them.  I wrote an article M6 : D56 (D534) Seeking the Living Among the Dead wherein I discussed this very issue.  It is a huge concern of mine and one that nobody should take lightly.  For those of you who are with me on this, head on over to https://www.fitnessexpose.com to sign up for my free eCourse and eNewsletter regarding this very topic.

So who is Carlos DeJesus?  Carlos is an undefeated champion natural bodybuilder.  His major titles include the following:

1980 Winner Mr. Old Dominion (Virginia State Championship)
1981 Winner Natural Mr. USA and Best Poser
1981 Winner Natural Mr. North America and Best Presentation
1985 Winner – Professional Natural Mr. World

Carlos is undefeated in tested competition.  That alone is an amazing feat that I guarantee will never be recreated.

Carlos is the inventor of the Quad Blaster, an awesome leg training device that gives all the benefits of squats without the risk of injury and back pain. 

Carlos teaches principles for you to follow.  He does not try to make one size fit all.  He believes in the Experiment of One and teaches principles that help you conduct that experiment.  Carlos continually says that principles can be applied to any situation and bring about good results.  He is a huge proponent of the High Intensity Training principle championed by Arthur Jones of Nautilus fame.

You can trust this man.  He walks the walk and talks the talk.  When you need advice on getting your body into great shape why not talk to a proven champion?  Carlos is that proven champion.

In addition to the wonderful principles that Carlos teaches, he is an extremely humble man.  He has done some amazing things in his life, yet he is not boastful.  He has spend many hours on the phone with me personally, guiding me towards success.  With the changes he expertly suggested for my program I have made some of the best progress of my life.
