Well done! You’ve pushed through two months of six-times-a-week training at the highest level. Look back at your training notebooks and progress photos, and take stock all that you’ve gained, learned, and built during this time.
You’ve done more than just lift like Arnold lifted. You’ve received a total education in bodybuilding from the greatest ambassador the sport has known. Take a moment to celebrate your graduation by watching his famous commencement speech at USC from 2009, where he discusses his “Six Rules for Success.”
ARNOLD’S SIX RULES FOR SUCCESS
Now what, you ask? The Blueprint was a plan that Arnold followed in various forms for years. You could turn right around and do it again—and again, and again—and see great results consistently. Or you could follow the wisdom of one Arnold’s most popular quotes and find new battles to fight.
“For me life is continuously being hungry,” he wrote in “The Education of a Bodybuilder.” “The meaning of life is not simply to exist, to survive, but to move ahead, to go up, to achieve, to conquer.”
Want to keep adding mass on top of what you’ve built? That’s understandable. Even Arnold has said he would have liked to add a few more inches here and there. Want to lean down and get crazy defined? Great! Bodybuilding.com has you covered with a training plan to match any goal.
