Second week of Smolov (Squatting 4 times a week). Time to get the quads big.

gymandmotivation:

If you ever lifted a weight, followed a routine, followed a diet.

you might as well thank this dude for revolutionizing bodybuilding, studying it, and mastering the art into a procedure. 

He has helped many bodybuilders get to where they are now, including Arnold, Columbo, Zane, and the other godfathers of the sport. 

If you can, and if you enjoy lifting, the least you can do is reblog this. I don’t ask much from my followers, but I ask you this. Reblog this and spread the respect and awareness to this amazing man who has changed so many lives. 

Life is like squats.

Squats are the strangest thing.  You can load up a certain amount of weight, unrack it thinking, “Holy hell this is heavy as shit, I won’t be able to rep this my spine is shooting out of my asshole.”

Preach brother preach! This is the gospel.

“I was constantly playing tricks on my mind. This is why I began to think of my biceps as mountains, instead of flesh and blood. Thinking of my biceps as mountains made my arms grow faster and bigger than if I’d seen them only as muscles.”
