Is yummy. Believe it and didnt remember Action Action action thank you very even better muscles muscles muscles at least thats the message i get im handling youre a mix reporter and im always pursuing the latest trends in men in this. So its now i want to see how important muscles are to being a man today or what just being a man means goes. Im in the right place here on the red carpet at the g. Q. God a celebration looking to compete with the prize winners. Men often here like the two musicians Gregory Potter and mark foster spots i can feel of love. And actor but yes right before they all say muscles operate requisite. And all that just as important as character. Muscles can hurt this set of force that helped turn a guy into a real man who had some nothing this image conflicts theres something nasty there always in poland this is gun safety. But only one guy here really knows about muscles on all shots and i go from a bodybuilding World Champion and mr universe if you to me and this is the training intensity is the most important thing mune it was my stepping stone to america i used to train for five hours a day in munich from shooting thank you to me it. Well i can do that too i think and throw myself down on the weight bench. Like ten million other fitness to do members in germany but after half an hour training i lose into. Just ought to be honest im beat but i have to continue if i want to pump up my biceps. And you know can anyone who look like that afterwards. Do i have the qualities for it or theyre going to come as a nine thats what the show you do is have a course you have to have a lot of discipline and work hard out its to reach the level of shots and i got out of it its a poem gunshots and.

High time to consult some predecessors and the collection of artifacts in billions of dismissive the body called in the bench in greece and rome can be seen as origin of todays ideals of mescaline beauty but even back then muscles werent everything. So in shock when it was important to the greeks to bring their ideal of beauty together with a certain mentality or a beauty in the mind and spirit. The greeks had a word. For the combination of beauty and nobility it wasnt just about the body. Yet todays world is beginning to realize the importance of balancing body and soul and expressing it through style. In the fine i think i still draw this fine line and not just in bodybuilding but in all areas is an eye and if someone crosses it if it gets to be too much gnashing is good and. Does what i say its right up to that line its brilliant. Muscles im just full of bodybuilders who struck this stuff. Trumpet player and hes muscles but in his face that you have to exercise them just as often they dont get as big as the ones we dont get up in your shoulders and i doubt you could make a movie with trumpet player muscles but you could maybe become a world star but i think the biggest muscle that i use is my brain im trying to and my heart im trying to to to open peoples minds up and open peoples hearts with music. It seems that men and muscles and such of that combination but without a heart or a brain theyre not much use.
