What is the importance of mentors for young men? What stress does body building subject your physiology to? On this episode, I talk to my mentor and friend Jim Brown, and we answer these questions and also discuss nootropics and proprietary blends and the best way to build an excellent physique.
The key to reaching your goals is having someone you listen to who has a way to make their program repeatable. They have to have a track record of it, and you need to listen to them person exclusively. -Jim Brown
Three Takeaways
Mentors are important for teenage boys. They are able to teach them about identity and becoming a man. Until you’ve mastered one thing, you can’t do anything else and expect to be successful. The mastery will give you the freedom to do the other things because you have the income. A great physique really isn’t made in the gym. You have to stimulate the whole cascade of muscle repair and the rest of the day determines your health. The eating part of it is really the trick.At the start of the episode, Jim gave us a background of his life and how he got started with bodybuilding. He also talked about the importance of having a mentor and having a singular mission. We went on to talk about water manipulation, and the physiological stress that comes with body building. Towards the end of the show we talked about finding and sticking to the right program when there is just so much information out there. We also discussed nootropics and nutrition.
The real trick to an excellent physique is the eating part of the equation. Whatever program you sign onto has to have the foundation of a mentor who has repeatable methods that you can stick to. With so many divergent philosophies from different gurus and the internet, ensure your success by exclusively following one singular mission; and working with someone who lives by the lifestyle you’re trying to follow.
