day 101: there is no escuse!

G day' shredders,


Since yesterday, I have completed my first 100days of my journey. I'm really excited about it but I'm actually trapped under 2weeks of finals...it's really confusing because I feel that my BF is silently increasing because of the lake of exercice!


So, I'm not going to practice any workout for the next few days but I care about my co-shredders so today i'm gonna present U an article concerning those who have escuses but don't care about it. Those who get such a huge determination to overcome all the life injustices. Those who are so respectable and should inspire everyone to fight for there dreams without any mercy, those who NEVER SURRENDER!!! This article deals with a disabled world of body transformation...








Few times ago I have discovered Mr Nino Savona testimony of a disabled bodybuilder on Mr Venuto site Burn the Fat. This guy has succeeded in his quest to build a dream body. He has joined me on Facebook and I noticed that he is a very kind person, generous and positive attitude. As he explained it, Nino is a man "on a mission" to spread the word that You can do anything you set your mind to!

In his own words:

Hi Bob... nice to meet u too!
I am determined to carry out my dream along with God,
to go and speak to people around the world about making excuses in life.
If Im able to overcome odds so can others NO EXCUSES!!
God Bless u!!
Nino


Nino has prooved that all you and me shredders who have no severe disabilities have no escuse to repel our dreams. It's always hard to get his body in the best shape but we have to take our chance without waiting any more! Nino wants to show people with disabilities that it can be done and nothing is impossible if you can do it in your mind and have a healthy spiritual life. Equally for those who have good bodies, they should count their blessings and get to using them for the good of themselves, and for the good of those who can't and would want to. I respect you mate!

Here is a review of an article found on the net (Disabled-World) enjoy there amazing stories:

Nick Scott


Bodybuilder Nick Scott (also known as the beast) was victim of a brutal car accident at the age of 16 taking away his ability to walk.


The car swerved out of control and performed several flips each as dangerous as the last. Nick held his breath and loosened his grip on the steering wheel as he no longer had control of all that was to come. Ending as fast as it started Nick found himself lying on the ground in a ditch looking at the sky, remembering he had not taken a breath for a long time he started to gasp for air. Although he was feeling no pain at all, it all came to the realization that he could no longer feel his legs, and he could no longer move them either.


When he had gotten to the hospital the nurse announced to him that he was to be paralyzed from the waist down.


Shattering all of his dreams those words led him to strong depression by night, but as his mother held him and said "Take it one day at a time", Nick understood. Giving himself small objectives and working his way to accomplish them, the first one being able to get by without painkilling medication. He was in control of the doses, by pressing a button the medication would take away the pain, but as long as he needed it he could not go back home. So he used it once and that was it, he dealt with the pain afterwards, but the pain meant nothing because he was determined.
Many years after Nick found his ultimate objective and became a source of inspiration for everyone, becoming a successful bodybuilder.




Reggie Benett

Bodybuilder Reggie Benett has been unable to walk since the age of 13. His curiosity turned back on him when he came across a gun, and accidentally shot himself upon playing with it.
Reggie has ever since used his disabilities to inspire other people with spinal cord injuries while motivating them, by proving the fact that limits don't exist. If you set your mind to it you can exceed mentally and physically.



After his hard training he is also a motivational speaker and although his hard work and dedication towards what he does sometimes leaves him not much time with his family. He knows that what he does is needed to inspire everyday people, and as many other wheelchair bodybuilders.



It ultimately proves that no excuse is a good excuse when it comes to not staying in shape and healthy, not even when physically disabled.



John Quinn


Bodybuilder John Quinn was victim of a near fatal motorcycle accident at a young age. It resulted in many broken bones and the loss of mobility.
Although this is one of the most horrible accidents that can happen to someone John has once said "It's just a roadblock to get through and with my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ living in me nothing can stand in my way. He is the true source of all my strength."


From there he proceeded to working on his body and became a successful bodybuilder.
His strong faith, will and mental strenght has brought him to what he said he would be, strong both body and soul. He has conquered fear, pain and doubts and has proven that no limits apply for anyone, the limit is only in your mind.
Now, you know that there is no limits just those of your minds...



Remember Shredders: there is NO ESCUSES!!!


Cheers,

Bob

HI Bob, Nice post today :)

Perhaps it may be unjust to say that these people have 'disabilities', or hve been 'disadvantaged' in any way...because of their spirit and tenacity, they are people who've been lucky enough to recognize the greatness within all human beings.

just mho~

Thanx so much BOB for giving us this jewel of a blog. I will never see my excuses again in the same light. These brave, bodybuilders make us all proud to be in the same game with them. And you too. Good luck with your exams, and congrats on your 100 days.
