NATURAL BODYBUILDING

  • Robert is a natural bodybuilder
  • Vinnie was on his show, check it out here on his Keto Savage podcast!
  • Most bodybuilders don't do this
    • Most use steroids and other products
  • This is the healthy way to engage in these competitions
  • It may take longer but it is so much better for you
  • Also sustainable to have these ripped bodies this way
  • Most bodybuilders think they need to carb up TONS then cut for 30 minutes of looking good
    • Robert eats keto all the time, and this is what keeps him looking so amazing and feeling so good
      • He's been ketogenic for 5 years
  • Robert used to do high protein high carbs, low to moderate fat
    • This is VERY inefficient
    • Messes with your hormones, too
    • The guys who do this look like zombies - takes the life out of them
  • Things that come easy and faster aren't usually the best things
    • Realizing this removed the temptation from the steroid route for Robert 
  • He doesn't take a lot of supplements
    • Takes Vitamin D and makes sure he gets enough salt, potassium, calcium in his food
  • Everything you put into your body matters
    • Taking a wholesome approach is the way to go
  • He takes his work outs seriously
    • One of the big things is squatting
    • For his chest: starts out with dumb bell flies, then onto cables, then bench press and similar things
    • Doesn't use more weight than he can handle
