Alex Shabunya strikes back!

Over the last few years, quite a large number of Russian, Belarusian, Ukrainian athletes have tried their chances on Pro-stage, but none of them could really loudly declare about himself, unfortunately. One athlete, whose name is really well known in the US, is Alexander Fedorov, who both forcing rivals to be afraid and causing a crazy interest to fans of Sergei Shelestov, Eugeny Mishin, and Denis Sergovsky.

There is an athlete among amateur bodybuilders who had been waiting and working persistently a long time to become a Pro-athlete before he made it when he won European Championship 2012, it is Alex Shabunya from Belarus. He is going to debut among Pro-athletes in Tampa Pro in six weeks.

Alex Shabunya: "I feel great! Preparation goes according to plan, and my weight is 123 kg for now. I'm planning to go on stage with a weight about 120 kg, and we will see how it goes. I workout with small weights purposely these days to reduce the risk of injury."

Alex got a knee injury that knocked him out for a long time. So Tampa Pro would be his strike back.

Dorian Yates 'Less is better!'

There has been much debate and many "spears broken" among theorists regarding the frequency of training in bodybuilding. However, my point of view has the advantage of being proven in practice. Once, when I wanted to know how often I needed to go to the gym, I looked at the blisters on my own hands and found the answer. As we know, the skin on your hands becomes rough when you regularly lift weights.

Kai Greene parted ways with his coach Oscar Ardennes

Why Kai Greene left Oscar? Interesting news excited fans of Kai Green and the bodybuilding world in general: Kai Greene decided to stop working with his coach Oscar Ardennes. Oscar and Kai's cooperation started before the Arnold Classic in 2009, although they had previously known each other. The cooperation immediately paid off — that was the victory in Columbus, which contributed to the continuation of the tandem. This is true, but things didn't go as expected. Yes, there was a victory at Arnold Classic in 2010, but many began to notice that Kai Greene showed muscle quality not as good as before, and since then he has not shown the best condition. However, the steady growth of muscle mass goes really well. They say that Ardennes's training method is focused on muscle mass. Mr. Olympia 2010 went not good for Kai Greene. Oscar Ardennes didn't want to admit his own mistakes as Kai Greene's personal coach in preparation for the competition. Perhaps stress and other f...

Bodybuilding Body Types: Ectomorph, Mesomorph, Endomorph

Which Type Do You Belong to? Human genetics determine many of the inherent characteristics that we are born with and cannot be changed later in life. However, through regular training and exercise, it is possible to overcome some of the limitations imposed by our genes. In 1940, William Sheldon introduced three distinct body types in his work "The Varieties of Human Physique", which is still used in medicine, science, and sports today. These three body types are known as ectomorph, mesomorph, and endomorph. However, it is important to note that these body types are generalizations and not everyone will fit neatly into one category, as most people are a combination of these body types, with only some aspects of each present in their overall physique.
