Even or Odd

Even or Odd

 

 

If you are a bodybuilder or you know a bodybuilder, you know how obsessive we are about symmetry.   When you work hard at making your body something to be proud of, remember the little things.  Calves, abs, and forearms are all part of the package.  Everyone knows someone who only works his upper body.  He looks odd doesn’t he?  You have to train every body part if you want to be even.

 

When I first started training, the gym I went to didn’t have any equipment specifically for calves.  I didn’t go the extra mile and use the equipment we had either.  Consequently, I had little calves and big thighs.  I looked like a quarter horse when I entered my first show.  Came in 16^th out of 16.  After learning the lesson of my life, I had to train hard for years to even them out.

 

Being the stereotypical bodybuilder, I have bounced at a few bars in my lifetime.  I know most guys lift for bar muscles (chest and arms). What about when you go to the beach Chester? Most girls seem to work legs and butt.  Wish I had something bad to say about that.  I would like for all you guys and girls just starting out to here this plea if nothing else.  Don’t just work your favorite parts.  Work the ones you hate working even harder than the ones you like.  If you don’t look even you will look odd!!!
