Great Body Jessica Alba

The great body I decided to pick today is Jessica Alba. This woman here is one of the most wanted celebrities alive by men of all ages. A recent study published in USA actually showed that Americans think that she and Halle Berry are the two female superstars with the hottest bodies today. I don't think anyone would say something against this statement. As she is our Great Body Of The Day I also researched some facts about her you might not have known:

1. Jessica enjoys playing golf, swimming and moved frequently in the first nine years of her life due to her father's military career. In the meantime, she lived in Mississippi, Texas and California.
2. Jessica is of Mexican, French and Danish descent.
3. She was chosen as one of People Magazine's annual 100 Most Beautiful People in May 2007.
4. She adores Harley Davidson motorcycles (who doesn't?)
5. Jessica Alba had asthma as a child and currently owns two sweet puppies called Sid and Nancy
6. The bra that she wore in Sin City drew a bid of $1,025 in an eBay auction.
7. As a child, she used to cook her own meals to control her weight and maintain her health. She used to avoid the food cooked in her family because it caused her health and weight problems

John Cena's workout

I see that many people ask around: What is John Cena's workout? I must say that I did not know but I imagined what it should be like, with a lot of cardio and less concentration on becoming stronger during competitional fighting times. I did a search and documented myself on John Cena's workout and this is what I found out.

Cena is usually on the road 4 days a week and is also pretty active with his rap career and the launch of a movie that I think was a flop ("The Marine") although it was pretty succesful. This WWE superstar has a great body as everybody realizes and the facts stay simple: he has to get to the gym. In an interview for Men's Fitness he said that:

"I have to make it to the gym--it's the only way I'll survive in the ring. But I can't train heavy because I'm wrestling all the time or in places where I can't get good food, so it's hard to recover. Instead, I circuit-train one body part per session. If I'm working chest, I'll do six exercises--one after the other--with no rest in between. It doubles as a cardio workout, and it keeps me pumped. That allows me to stay big, but I can't really get stronger."

This is basically how all WWE and TNA superstars survive. It is not easy to be a professional wrestler and to be a succesful one is even more difficult. Cena for instance said around a year ago that he only benches around 315 pounds which is less then you would actually think he can when you take a look at his body. Genetics is a big part of John Cena's body and everybody must realize this. There is no sense in wanting arms like this wrestler and doing a research on his arm routine, adopting it and thinking you will have his arms. You need to find what is best for you, not for John Cena.

Sylvester Stallone and Growth Hormone

This is one interesting piece of news I just read. It seems that Sylvester Stallone was charged with importing an illeagal growth hormone under the form of a drug called Jintropin. To his defense, the "Rocky" star and in my opinion a former great body has declared that he did not know the drug was illegal. He was caught in Australia holding 48 vials of this hormone. It does seem a lot doesn't it? The fact is that it seems he has a medical condition that he treats using hormones for quite a long time. Although it looks like nobody knows what he is suffering from, the excuse will probably not make him escape a fine that could reach a maximum of $36,000. Stallone declared to his defense that:

Never ever was it my intention to breach the laws and I realise that I should have properly informed myself about your customs

Bobby Lashley Workout with Maxim

The WWE superstars seem to be very researched on the web these days, especially their workout routines. After discussing John Cena's workout yesterday let us now talk about Bobby Lashley. This individual has an incredibly great body. Actually, most WWE superstars have great bodies but Bobby Lashley stands out. He once went at a photoshoot with Maxim Magazine for an interview in the Expert Fitness column they publish. Bobby gave some advice and also showed some of his secrets. If you want to find out about a superstar's workout regime there is a big chance it will be published in a magazine, especially with somebody that has a body like Lashley. He stated :

"I’m going to give away a couple of my secrets to my successes with my body and build. "

Lashley did something nice in that shoot. He immediately built a makeshift pull up bar out of photo equipment as you can see from the picture attached and did a total of five exercise. He said that:

"We did have to rig the bar a little bit to get that exercise in; however, my back is my strong point when I work out, so a pull up is pretty easy for me. I do a lot of core work, so I work my abs a lot, so that was easier for me. For the average person it’s probably going to be more difficult to do."

Isn't it interesting how every great body out there always say that they work a lot in order to have that body? That is what you should do as well! Work out, work out hard and you WILL see results! Just in case you do not know who Bobby Lashley is maybe you should read our Great Body Bobby Lashley dedicated post some time ago.

Jay Cutler on Pro Bodybuilding Weekly

Pro Bodybuilding Weekly will celebrate tomorrow the airing of episode number 75. Because of this event a special guest will be on the show, none other than Mr. Olympia himself, Jay Cutler. There have been a lot of rumors lately saying that Ronnie Coleman is gaining momentum in his quest to re-capture the Olympia title. With this show specialists believe that Jay Cutler will announce his official start to his 2007 Olympia preparation. News from around the IFBB will also be on the schedule.

Who Is Joe Weider?

Josef E. "Joe" Weider was born on November 29, 1922 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. He is the Canadian co-founder of the International Federation of Bodybuilders (IFBB) together with his brother Ben Weider. Joe Weider also created Mr. Olympia and Ms. Olympia. What few people know is that Joe Weider started his empire with just $7 at the tender age of 17. He built barbells out of car axles and wheels. Later he became a manufacturer of gym exercise equipment and one of the first people ever to focus on nutrition as a part of bodybuilding. His line of nutritional supplements is one of the most recognized across the world.

Joe Weider introduced the mental approach to working out. He never claimed to be an innovator. He always said he took different elements from different sources and synthesized them into bodybuilding. To sum it up, Weider is one of the first that put together and introduced a series of training principles that successful bodybuilders use today:

1. Pre-Exhaustion Training
2. Pyramiding
3. Super sets
4. Muscle Priority Training
5. Set System Training
6. Instinctive Training
7. Giant Sets
8. Tri-Sets
9. Staggered Sets
10. Compound Sets

We have a lot to thank Weider. Without him bodybuilding would not have been the way we know it today!

Chris Benoit and Family Dead

This one was a shoker. Chris Benoit missed the WWE pay per view Vengance and was eventually found dead, together with his wife and seven year old son in what the police is currently considering a double homicide - suicide. His wife was found killed and his son was asfixiated. Near both victims Bibles were found. The body of Benoit was located in a private GYM in the house, hanged by a weight-lifting machine. Police is considering a case of anabolic steroids overdose that can cause what is known as "roid rage". No suicide note or motive for the possible murders discovered. District Attorney Scott Ballard said:

"In a community like this it’s bizarre to have a murder-suicide, especially involving the death of a 7-year-old. I don’t think we’ll ever be able to wrap our minds around this."

Few people know about problems in Chris Benoit's life. In the past he said:

"Quality time with my family is a big vice. It’s something I’ll fight for and crave."

Nancy Benoit filed for divorce in 2003 stating that the child was receiving "cruel treatment" and that there was broken furniture in the case. It seems there were some problems in paradise with Chris and Nancy Benoit but nothing really suggested something like Chris killing his son and wife. Everybody is in shock. After tests it will be determined if the steroids had any part in this but what police is currently declaring is that Chris Benoit murdered his wife Nancy Benoit (also known as "Woman" in the wrestling world) and then killed his son. The next day he sent out messages to co-workers at wwe and gave them his address plus stating that the garage door was open.
