I Am Not A Weightlifter by TONY MONCHINSKI
The Look. Off-season, Kai Greene looks like a 300-pound Michelin Man in red sweats and a red hoodie. Pre-contest, Greene looks like a 275-pound Michelin Man in red sweats and a red hoodie. But when the sweats come off, it’s pounds and pounds of ripped, grainy muscle. You’re left blinking—in the gym when he’s there, in the audience at the Olympia—left to wonder how a man has packed that much muscle onto a human frame, and doubting he can pack on more. But you know not to doubt Greene. He has a track record of proving doubters wrong.

Fire It Up by DAVID SANDLER
Feeling whacked after busting your gut day in and day out? If you’re grinding away at your training programme and noticing that between your hardcore cutting diet and your amped up training routine, you’re running out of energy, it’s likely because you’ve slowed down or, better yet, outpaced your metabolism. I’d be hard-pressed to say that anyone with a decent amount of muscle could possibly have a slow metabolism, but most certainly your metabolism does change as your body changes. What’s more, is that it’s not as simple as just working out harder and hoping to boost it. If it were that easy, well, you’d already have an explosive metabolism and wouldn’t need to read any further.

Head And Shoulders Above by GREG MERRITT
Let’s say you’re Mr Olympia. Just dream for a minute. Your life is a whirlwind of airports and interviews and strange gyms in stranger places. And all the while, you’re a marked man. You’ve got the title everyone wants, so the world’s other best bodybuilders are gunning for you workout after workout, meal after meal. What do you do? How did you stay on top for three years, and how do you stay there for at least one more? Two ways. You eliminate, as best you can, your weaknesses—those areas your closest competition could possibly exploit. And you enhance your strengths—those areas you can exploit over those same top contenders.
