One of the things that I find very interesting that my friends has done but I never had done before. Even though I have the chance to, it was that my friends participated in bodybuilding competition. It excites me but at the same time it shows me a possibility that I have not taken. So back then me and my friends were into the fitness scene. We regularly go training together 5 times a week and discuss vehemently about the diet and training schedule and how to improve our physique in the best way. I quit after 2.5 years of trying. My friends however take a different path. He go on to become a professional bodybuilder and has achieved great success in it. I remember just attending my friend’s competition last year. At that venue everyone was physically impressive. I find everyone put their hardest work in their physique and their genetics show enormous difference. The only similar thing is that they always put in the same effort as everyone else. When they show their body on the stage everyone works through and I admire them on the stage very much. It was a large scale competition and I regret and also find it fascinating to have the chance to compete in it.
