The scale. So hated, so worshiped. I know it’s in fashion to say “oh I don’t care for the scale” and yes I do agree, except for under one condition where it’s an excelle...
Everyone knows how to spot a really great race horse. It is more muscular and defined than the rest, it runs faster than the rest of the horses, wins every time, has that special aura around it sayin...

I have a tough time with general questions cause they tend to be masked particular questions. Yes, the one who asks believes there is an easy, short yes and no to what they want to get the answer to,...
Ships go head to head and collide, even at the surely eternal sea. Where there’s fire and passion, there will be friction. Forgive and let go whispers my heart, suppressed and held down by some...
You look at my pictures and jump to conclusions that I must be genetically gifted, have a high metabolism, use drugs or plain crazy. I can testify under oath that neither of the three first ones are ...
My body is a race car. I run its engines hard cause my lane is the faster lane. Wearing out, tearing down and reignite time after time is part of the game. I’m not content with having a little ...
I see it time after time: the desire to see what’s under that “tough surface” and why I have the muscles I do, cause it has to be I feel the need to empower myself, right? I must fe...

Look at me. You think I look like a slender athletic dancer. Or maybe a gymnast. That kind of “just the right size, the right shape” gotta take way less work than being a big buff bodybui...
I contemplate a lot. It’s a luxury I have while I work out. It might not be I’m there in the moment, but honestly, I need to put my body on autopilot and just cruise away in my mind inste...
I got a text from a male friend this morning. He asked me if it’s normal to have a low libido when you diet for shows and if it is low all the time if you stay shredded year round. I can of cou...
I thrive off living like I’m walking on the fine line of making or breaking it. Knowing that it can all be taken away in a snap with someone’s fingers. It’s having that rope around ...

Motivation comes and goes, that’s why I rely on discipline and not motivation to stay in excellent shape. You might think it’s easier to be on a high when you got your cuts, striations an...
When training goes great it’s like you’re in love. When you’re not training you think of training, when you’re training you think about the future training. You make up plans ...
Fighter Diet has its own rap and daily jargon: Iphones: I measure in iphones. Example: “How many iphones high is the box you’re using for box squats? 1 1/2 iphones.” “Pony: Im...
I don’t have patience to get in shape, so that’s why I don’t ever get out of shape. But it was not always the case, cause I too was a newbie long time ago. Coming from a background ...
I know my limitations. I won’t become the next president of the United States. I also won’t become a world class jockey. My career as a lawyer is most likely definitely not happening. And...
Refeeds, cheat days, treat day, whatever you call it and whatever the rules you apply, they all have one thing in common: the big bad day 1 POST feast. If you think abstaining for a certain time is t...
People who have off seasons where they gain some weight, then diet down for shows and photo shoots have some advantages to those who stay lean all the time. Since the body gets more time to recover a...
I created Fighter Diet because I needed a strategy to maintain a ripped body 365 days a year. It’s the perfect program for those who cannot eat “whatever they want” and who have a b...
If only you could read the book of your life before you entered the war zone…If only you could see the puzzle before facing the challenge of putting one down after another and hope they fit and...
Everyone seems to be looking for the most effective, fastest workout. The shorter the better. Nobody seems excited about long grueling workouts, all people want is spending the least amount of effort...
This has nothing to do with fitness or nutrition, but since it’s my blog and I blog about whatever off topic I want, well, be careful for what you don’t wish for, here is my view on the P...
Competed and now don’t know what to do? Depending on your goals and what you did or didn’t do, you go about it different ways: Most people get struck by post contest frenzies and cannot c...
I love walking down the silent streets on a Sunday afternoon in Venice, when everyone is at the beach. It’s quiet. And I can see those special thin grass plants slowly swinging with the wind. ...
It’s better to keep silent and wait til you have something good to say than say something everyone’s heard twenty times too many. Some times I read people’s rambles or listen to the...
