I dont follow any otther athlete’s progress other than my own. That goes for every sport I have ever been or will be involved in. I do my thing and that is it. Whether or not I know these people doesnt stop me from growing or getting better.

This isn’t about you. What I wrote wasn’t even about you.
Also, no one here would know about how great you are doing because you won’t show pictures of your progress…making this all talk.
Most successful people do follow other successful people. [/quote]
Im the most recent one here to not know who pro bbers are,right? Who else could you be talking about?
a few people know what I look like
Who did bill gates copy? I bet it was walt disney or napleon…[/quote]
There have been hundreds of guys who didn’t know who key people were in bodybuilding. This is a physique sport. By ignoring other physiques, you would only put yourself at a disadvantage if you ever did get on stage as a possibility.
Kobe Bryant spent hours watching footage of Michael Jordan to the point of obsession…along with other good players.
Clearly you think this was a mistake.
It is great that others know what you look like. I don’t. I am sure many here don’t. Why not refresh our memories?[/quote]
I like going in blind. All I can do is prepare myself the best I and my trainer can. I think getting stressed over what some other dude looks like is the real disadvatge. No one pressures me, but me.
My brother watched Warren Sapp tapes as well. He isnt an NFL player. He wasnt even that good when he played. Kobe was going to be Kobe…
eh, progress? PROGRESS? I’m not making any (because my posting is mainly in GAL and SAMA)

I think that’s a very close minded statement/train of thought. While I agree that we are all unique and have differnt strengths that doesn’t mean that I can’t take something that you do very well and incorporate it into my own skill set. I sell for a living and I think I’m pretty good at it. There are others that are better and the only reason I know is because I pay attention.
Now I could stay where I am and simply say I’m the best ME I can BE or I can see what they are doing and determine if I should be doing it also or better still, improving on their process.
Additionally, comparing yourself allows you to see your weaknesses. If I’m the cats meow what do I based myself on, the mirror?
