REFLECTIONS by Lee Labrada

What Do You Believe?

Science is powerful. Science has given us advances in training methods, nutrition and supplement programs. The result? Athletes today are bigger, stronger, faster and more incredible than ever.

That said, science is great…to a point!

Science is constantly being redefined. Science tries to explain and influence what we should believe about our world. The bad news is that "science" can also limit what we think possible – IF we let it!

For example, the words of doctors, backed by medical science, can be so powerful that they influence life and death. They can offer life-giving encouragement to one patient, or hand a death sentence to a cancer patient, causing them to give up hope.

But remember this… people "defy" medical science all the time, and live longer than they were told because they believed differently!

Science doesn’t control all the pieces of your human potential. Science can’t measure or limit your mind, which is your strongest, most powerful, and most creative God-given asset.

Nor can science contain your spirit or desire. Your reality is in large part created by what you choose to believe.

That’s why you must constantly bathe your mind in positive, affirming messages that can take you to new heights. Challenge your beliefs. Challenge the "facts" they are based on. Look science in the eye and question it! Don’t let science define your capacity or set your limitations!

As a person who lives the fitness lifestyle, YOU are a free spirit with the audacity to surpass what the "facts" tell you.

Your laboratory is in your training. That’s where you’re constantly experimenting and learning your own truths. Time and time again, we athletes have sent researchers back to the drawing board, scrambling to explain what we’ve done, when science said we couldn’t.

Imagine where I’d be today if I had believed, that being a 180-pound bodybuilder, I could never break the top 6 at the Mr. Olympia competition. Yet I broke all the norms and beat men that were 40 and even 50 pounds heavier than me.

Whatever your training program or fitness goals, search out and discover what works and "feels right" for you. If you listen carefully, your body will direct you! Believe that! And believe that you can do it. Whether you reach your goal or not, remember that.

You’ll enjoy a fuller, richer and more fit life, by going out on a limb and not letting false assumptions hold you back.
