Seeds of a passion - II

In my earlier post hope it's clear to all of you my friends, what made this deposit in my head and grew over time like a fungus. Amazingly enough, until I reached my mid 20s, I never wanted to have a Arnold like physique or bulk up. Never the less, in the deepest of tunnels of my mind, the idea of having a toned yet bulked up physique was always there, waiting for the right moment to waive it's authority over me.

Then the moment came, the fire that was burning inside my mind started to take control over me, burning every obstacle on it's path. Nothing could stop it and the story unfolds like this.

My best friend Lasitha 'Laiya' as all of us used to call him had become a gym rat and his growth was very prominent - like in a couple of months this tall, thin, lanky fellow became a bulked up monster with arms of about 10 inches. This made me think, how on earth this guy became so 'big'? and the answer is obviously, thanks to the gym.

After few days of inquiring, to a level where I became a pain in his head, I decided it's enough and now it's high time that I myself need to hit a gym. All I wanted was to get arms like his and nothing else. Then out of no where that picture I saw at 'Prisca bakers', that picture which got stuck in some hidden corners of my mind for so many years, popped out with a spark.

Now it's my turn to make it or break it.

This is where and how it all started. How I started to become a 'gym goer' - not a 'gym rat' as I still do not qualify for that. The product is still under work-in-progress.

Gradually, over the past 3-4 years this became not only a course or a routine of my life but a 'Passion'. Working out, gymming, motivating became a part and parcel of my life, without even knowing to myself, secretly to my mind, that fire took control over me until it became the 'Passion of my life'.

I urge all of you fellas who are into fitness, who likes to have a well toned, ripped physique; don't just become a 'gym goer' like me, also don't become a mere 'gym rat', don't stop by making 'staying fit' your passion, but make it a life style. It's a way of life that most people can't have, not willing to have, way too difficult to even dream of having - people who are used to this easy going life will never ever have. Make it your life style and live up to your potential.

Don't ever forget, you never know what your potential is until you test yourself to the point of no return. You never know. Good luck!
