Yes, I completely understand that people don’t want to pay anything to learn to get ripped, and achieve the body of their dreams. So people go online looking for free information and there are tons of guys (or even women) in youtube trying to teach people how to get a ripped body. They go in there, giving workout advice, teaching different workouts and they give you nutrition advice. It’s mostly the experienced bodybuilders with the successful physiques teaching fitness, and they just want to pass along how they achieved it. All that is great, and wonderful how people want to help people, don’t get me wrong, but… you can’t trust their source.

You also have to be careful of their scams, ’cause some of them will want donations. You also have to watch out for the supplement products they push out there. When they teach workouts, their form is not always good. So you must be careful on that too. As I already stated on that video, some of these guys are almost always opinionated on stuff. Not giving actual facts. Sure, there are like one or two fitness gurus who really know what they’re doing and what they’re talking about. I’m also sure people have gotten results out of some of these online fitness gurus. The thing is, you can’t trust everything you see online.

I’m a self taught bodybuilder. I learned from Arnold’s “Encyclopedia” mostly, and I learned from other people locally around the Greenwich area. I just watch how other people did things in the gym. I would also try to learn new workouts from bodybuilding.com. I found my own ways of learning things. It is very strange how too many people go online to support these guru bodybuilders who don’t even look natural even though they claim to be.

You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to learn about bodybuilding. All you need is a set of dumbbells, your own gym membership, learn a few workouts for each body part, and a clean nutrition, that’s it!  I don’t want to have a Mr. Olympia kind of look. I think that look is kind of silly and disgusting. I just want a natural looking, medium physique. I respect the competitors out there, but that’s not my thing. Like I always say, I just want to get in decent shape.

Don’t learn from these so called fitness guru’s online. Like I said on the video, they’re all a bunch of whack jobs, and I meant it too!
