"there's a certain kind of desperation you are going to need to have PERIOD that will make you the athlete that would be capable of tapping into your champion...there's a certain kind of desperation that needs to be in order to be one with your passion as you need to be in order to overcome obstacles or barriers..."-kai greene
i won't pretend that i know kai but i'm goin to take a shot of what i meant with this quote because up until this year..did hearing this made more sense to me.
i've seen this alot and there are guys with tons of potential to make it but question is do they want it? why is that those who aren't genetically gifted fuckin want it more? they reach this sense of desperation quicker cause their hunger is greater. i mentioned this quote but really didn't know what it meant til i actually was LIVING this quote...
killer instinct combined with violent intentions creates the unshakable resolve to be the strongest when being strong and hunger to be stronger is all you got left is what PRIMAL RESOLVE is..
Bill Kazmaier is the optiome of killer instinct whenever he stepped into a competition..no one questioned his resolve...EVER!
ok. everyone likes to talk a big fuckin game...be the next mr. olympia...take the top spot in their class...break someones record...but they don't realize that there is certain amount of fuckin resolve you have to have to do it at any and all costs. they don't know that everything they do is apart of a bigger picture. they only see what's in front of them. how many meets will it take to break a record? how many shows will it take to turn pro? how many more will it take to be mr. olympia or worlds strongest bodybuilder? how many competitions will it take to qualify for WSM? are you fuckin willing to endure this war? cause that's what it is. war with yourself...your competition...your obstacles. are u willing to keep fighting when shit doesn't go your way? if u lose a competition..do u have the heart to get back up and keep fighting?
"Being the best that you can possibly be is a tough line to tow and measure. For some people, this involves being a state or national level competitor. For others it means setting world records. All my life I have always been pushed by a burning internal fire to be better than everyone else. Not in every area, but for some reason this has always been the case when it comes to physical endeavors. I’ve never wanted to lose.
I’ve always prided myself on having a mental resolve that was greater than everyone else’s. I went through a lot of training partners in high school and college because they couldn’t hang with me. They would always tell me I didn’t need a training partner because no one could push me harder than I pushed myself. As an aside here, I later found out that a training partner who can get me to quit, instead of one who can keep me going, is what I’ve always needed."- J.L. Holdsworth
what am i saying? what kai is trying to say that there is a certain point when your backed into a corner and you have to decide...take it to the next level or back off? you have to decide how bad u really want this cause if it was easy...everyone would be doing it. there's tons of sacrifice you have to make...blood you have to spill and lots of sweat you have to give just to get halfway there. the rest will be all fuckin resolve. to me it pisses me off to see so many people take the REAL titles lightly like its goin to be easy to achieve cause they have it all figured out and everytime get humbled when they fall short. guess what motherfuckers...SHIT ISN'T EASY!! get over it...grab your balls and get to work. fuck goin into the gym for ONLY the "pump" bullshit..if your ass isn't making improvements in your physique...your wasting your fuckin time and your not look at the BIGGER picture. what will you do when the lights are off...the cameras aren't on your ass...all the material things you have are gone...job..money...so called friends...and all your left with is your passion and your hunger for your sport? that's where u reached the point of desperation...and realize the primal resolve necessary to get to that next level..no matter what.
derek poundstone has taken every challenge whether it be competition or otherwise as a challenge to grow stronger and has made that "decision" to make it happen...and his hunger has showed ever since.
i respect someone who's hungry enough to endure the war more than someone who just wants to rush into it. those who are hungry will want it bad as they fuckin breathe the air or drink the water. they have no problem makin the sacrifice neccessary. i learned this. and i'm willin to fuckin do the same. and its funny cause its always the ones that are quiet and silent about what they do...just put in the work. you go after every fuckin session gettin a PR...anyway u fuckin can. fuck whatever someone else does. do you. train your ass off and make every one of your sessions harder than the last cause there will be even harder sessions on the way. do what u gotta do to get to the level where u need to be. if that means moving. do it. make it happen. if it means changing gyms...do it make it happen. if it means gettin shit for your own gym...do it make it happen. if it means surrounding yourself with others who understand your passion more and not being around those who are "complacent"...DO IT! j.l. holdsworth talked alot about "paying the bills" and guess what motherfucker..if your ass thinks your goin to turn pro in a year or rise up in the ranks from the bottom to the top...your ass is fuckin delusional if you don't think u can get by without "paying the bills". to get to this point of desperation you have to want it soo fuckin bad that its all you think about...that you will do whatever it takes to get there...PERIOD! its no longer a fuckin game anymore..its who u fuckin are.
you have to have the sense of desperation that can be empowered by primal resolve to be at one with your passion in order to tap into that champion...the one with a warrior mindset to do whatever it takes to and however it takes to acheive that BIGGER picture...no matter if its MR. OLYMPIA...AN ALL-TIME RECORD HOLDER...WORLDS STRONGEST BODYBUILDER...WORLDS STRONGEST MAN...#1 RANKED LIFTER IN YOUR WEIGHT CLASS. you have to make the decision to decide to be a "state champion" or a world-class champion...or amateur bodybuilder or a PRO bodybuilder. the mindset between the two extremes are waaaay different. its the resolve of the latter that has it in them day in and day out to go thru the fuckin grind and not stop til they reach the top and be psychotic enough to do it all over again just to see if they can.
Phil Heath surrounded himself with some very good people in his corner..one was jay cutler...the other was jay's prep coach..hany rambod. think about it..
do u fuckin have it in you to do that? if u haven't reached this point then this shit isn't your gig and u might want to get the fuck out now before u break a nail or something. the games stop here. your goin to war..day in and day out..competition after competition...wins you grow...losses you learn...fuck the trophies... they aren't enough til you achieve your mission. treat it like a dream and that's all it will fuckin be...a dream. make it your mission to make it happen. its doin what's fuckin necessary to acheive and accomplish your mission...drop all emotions. leave your pussy at home. strap on your cock and lets fuckin get to work.
do work SON!
