"Stay away from negative people and never give up your dreams"

The
Beginning: I began body building at the age of 18. At
first I just wanted something positive to occupy my mind
as a lot of my friends at the time were into negative
activities which I had no interest in getting involved
with. Two years later I entered my first competition
as a junior and won. After that I went to university
to concentrate on getting an education and a Degree in
nutrition.
Lee Powell’s Training Diet:
Breakfast - 100g Oats, 1 banana, 1 yogurt, Pure Protein
Current
split Now I’m older I listen to my body a lot more.
I have no current split, If I feel sore in a certain body
part I may give it two weeks rest and at the other end
of the spectrum I may train a body part as much as three
times in a week. I am trying to get in touch with my body
and give it what it needs.
Best body part I don’t strive to have a best body
part I want to have a complete physique that when looked
at on the whole is inspiring and realistic for the younger
bodybuilders to achieve but also appreciated and competitive
in the IFBB. I don’t want to be a freak!!
Worst body part My big Toes, Ha!! A former girlfriend
used to call me "Hammer Toes" and unfortunately
now my son has them too!!
Best exercise I love to train everything and being
creative. I like to invent exercises all the time as
I think it’s
refreshing for the mind and helps stimulate muscle fibres
from different angles. I don’t believe in one way
of training and always keep an open mind in everything
I do.
Training partners I don’t limit myself to
training with one person I will train with a complete
beginner to advanced bodybuilders or on my own so long
as I see them put 100% effort in that inspires me but
my motivation comes from within my mind not somebody
screaming at me.
Future
Goals in Bodybuilding?
To
create a physique that I can honestly say is classical,
asthetic and competitive and not to look like some of
the monsters competing nowadays. Bodybuilding is displaying
the perfect physique not how big you can be. Although
I respect everyone's goals with regards to their apppearance
I personally feel we need to step back and lokk at the
direction the sport is going.
