RÉGIMEN DE REGULARIZACIÓN DE OBLIGACIONES NO

>http://TrinaGoosby.com

A few months ago I was contacted on MySpace.com by a sul- try and sexy gal named Trina Goosby. She asked to be my friend, and like any red-blooded American male in his right mind, I happily obliged. Over the course of several weeks Trina and I communicated by e-mail, then by phone and eventually in per- son. Getting to know Trina has been a wonderful experience, as she is beautiful not only on the outside but on the inside as well. She is also very well spoken, intelligent and caring and loves to laugh (which I quickly learned when we saw “Talladega Nights”). I’m mentioning all of this because so many gals in the indus- try are stuck-up and have a what-can-you-do-for-me attitude. That doesn’t describe Trina at all; she’s a rare gem in the fitness world. Because of that, I told Trina that I wanted to feature her site in the column, which she found an exciting prospect, as it’s recently been redone and is now one of the sharpest looking on

the Web. And speaking of sharp-looking, at just 5’ tall and about 100 pounds onstage, Trina is on the fast track to becoming one of the top “tiny” figure gals on the scene. I recently had the pleasure of watching her win her class and the overall at the Florida Gold Cup/Zena Collins Figure Championships. Next is the Arnold Classic, where she’ll battle it out with some of the top pro-card-hungry figure women from across the nation. Trina was born in Dearborn Heights, Michigan, and grew up in a small town in northern Wisconsin. She now resides in Boca Raton, Florida, where she uses her education, which includes a B.S. in exercise physiology and kinesiology, to help others achieve better health and a harder body. Being of Filipino and Welsh descent has certainly given Trina an exotic look, which you can see firsthand in her stunning picture gallery. And trust me when I say her photos are hot—I recommend turning on your air conditioner before viewing. Another interesting fact about Trina is that she’s a classically trained ballet dancer, which explains her amazing grace and stage presence. You can learn much more about her in the “About Me” section. I really enjoyed Trina’s site: It’s easy to navigate, has a high-tech look and even plays some banging music in the background. Check it out.

Tennis had John McEnroe. Football has Terrell Owens. And bodybuilding has Shari “King” Kamali. What do those three profes- sional sports stars have in common? They love to rock the boat—as in create contro- versy. And they’re not afraid to speak their minds, no matter who gets pissed off. King is probably best known for his constant war of words with former pro bodybuilder Craig Titus, which made for some entertaining reading in the magazines as well as onstage. Hmm, you think King visits Craig in jail these days? Probably not. But I digress. It’s precisely because of Kamali’s controversial comments that I decided to check out his Web site to see if I can learn more about the man behind the mouth (and muscles, of course). King, born in Tehran, Iran, won his pro card at the ’99 NPC Nationals as a heavyweight and then stormed the pro scene in ’01 with a third- place finish at the IRON MAN Pro, fourth at the Arnold Classic and a top-10 showing at the Olympia. What Kamali lacked in muscle shape, he made up for in spades with his excellent hard-as-nails conditioning. Since 2001 King has had trouble recapturing his best form, however, and has been struggling in the more prestigious IFBB events. Don’t

count the man out just yet, though, as he is one of the most passionate and driven athletes in the pro ranks. King thrives on criticism and the negative comments he hears about his physique and future in the sport. To quote his site, the man who would be King has this to say about his critics: “The interesting thing is that these idiots who constantly put me down do not realize that the more they hound me, the more dedicated I get. These morons keep adding fuel to my fire every time they open their mouths.” Kamali really needs to come out of his shell, huh? I was surprised to learn that he has a head on his shoulders; he earned a B.S. in exercise

physiology from George Mason University, which he makes good use of in his own training and the many seminars he puts on each year. I’m also impressed with the fact that King keeps his picture gallery up to date; many pros do not. Not only does he have photos from each show he competed in during 2006, but he also includes great hotel-room shots from two days out, one day out and just hours before the Ar- nold Classic. It’s interesting to see the subtle changes in his conditioning from day to day. Of course, Kamali has a store on his site as well, where he offers some cool autographed photos, training videos and his own lifting straps for sale. Definitely worth a look.

Starbuck’s caffe mocha with nonfat milk, 174 calories. Krispy Kreme vanilla iced doughnut with sprinkles, 280 calories. Burger King bacon double cheeseburger, 580 calories. NutritionData.com, price- less. Okay, so maybe the site isn’t quite as priceless as, say, your copy of IRON MAN, but it is without a doubt an extremely valuable tool and source of infor- mation for anyone serious about transforming his or her physique. The data above came from the site’s monster list of the complete nutritional content of just about any fast food you can think of! So the next time you sit down to your weekly cheat meal (or meals, Mr. Ab-less), you can quickly figure out exactly how many hours you’ll need to utter the phrase, “Oh, man, am I bloated.”

>Net Results Q&A

Interesting queries from message boards and forums from across the Internet, answered with precision, ac- curacy and plenty of outrageous opinions...

Q: I’m trying to get ripped for my first body- building contest and was told to avoid fruit. Fruit is so healthful, why is it not good when you’re on a diet?

A: It does seem strange, doesn’t it? Yes, fruit is

quite healthful, virtually fat free and loaded with vita- mins, minerals and phytonutrients, but it also contains a natural sugar known as fructose. Sugar can greatly hinder your efforts toward a ripped physique. Diets too high in any type of sugar can induce insulin resistance, which can lead to higher blood lipids and bodyfat. If you’re serious about creating a stageworthy physique, you should stick with complex carbs like oatmeal, brown rice and sweet potatoes prior to a contest. I usu- ally have my clients cut out fruit completely at least six weeks before a competition and recommend limiting fruit to only one meal per day (usually breakfast). Best of luck at your show!

Q: If you could choose only three exercises for your entire body, what would they be?

A: That’s an interesting question, and one that I’ve

thought about many times. After years of performing every exercise in existence, I’ve developed a pool of favorites—exercises that seem to be the most effec- tive for me (and most trainees). Given the choice of only three, however, I’d probably go with full deadlifts, bent-over barbell rows and incline barbell presses. The deadlifts would hit the major muscles of the thighs, hip structure and lumbar region. The bent-over rows would

tax the lats, midback musculature (traps and rhom- boids), posterior deltoid and biceps/brachialis. The in- clines would target the pectorals, anterior deltoids and triceps. Using those three movements, I’d try a variety of grips, angles and ranges of motion in order to get the

most from each one. Some trainees might look to replace the deadlift with the squat, but it’s my belief that the deadlift is actually a better overall exercise for induc- ing hy- pertrophy. Although you may not be able to build a

“perfectly balanced” body using only three exercises, you still can certainly build an impressive physique. I know many guys who perform only a few basic lifts several times per week, and they’re extremely well developed. In fact, for at least four to six weeks of every year I go back to a program of just basic move- ments, leaving the cables and machines behind, and I always find that serves as a serious wake-up call to my muscles. Then, when I go back to a greater variety of movements, I find that I’m stronger on each one of them. Good stuff! IM

Fruit can make it hard to get harder during those last few weeks of a diet.

Full deadlift: One of the best mass- producing moves you can do— even better than the squat.

Just when you thought the big weekend in Columbus, Ohio, had no more room to expand, it got larger again. Including its title. The three- day bash formerly known as the Arnold Fitness Weekend, which is set for March 2 through 4 this season, is now known as the Arnold Sports Festival.

“This title recognizes the weekend’s growth, and this year’s event will host 17,000 athletes, 38 sports and events—14 of which are Olympic sports,” said co-promoter (and partner of guess who) Jim Lorimer. “The festival includes an expanded 650-booth Expo, and youth and adult athletes from more than 10 nations will participate in competitions and demonstrations.”

The Ultimate Fighting Championships—UFC—will be back with a Saturday-night event that’ll be broadcast on pay-per-view TV. Among the new doings this year: USA weightlifting, grappling wrestling, sumo demo, WWE talent recruitment, the Arnold Archery competition, the International Youth Dance competition (featuring 14 U.S. couples hoof- ing away against 14 Canadian couples) and, of course, the amateur NPC Arnold Bodybuilding, Fitness and Figure Championships. I was going to enter the dance competition, but I’m much too old for a youth division. Plus, my wonderful partner,

Nancy DeNino, is from Canada, which eliminates me as the logical choice for her partner. Masters divi- sion next year, Jim?

Bob Lorimer, Jim’s son, is co-producing the NPC event with Ohio fitness and figure guru Mike Davies, and he admitted in early December that the mad rush of po- tential contestants contacting them caught even him off guard. “We were originally going to set the limit at 200, but it ended up at 300 before we cut it off,” Bob said. “We have 100 in figure—all competitors had to place in the top five at an NPC national qualifier.”

I’m flattered that Bob has booked me to emcee the amateur shebang. I’ll also be back for my usual duties at the podium for the Arnold Clas- sic as well, so it makes an already nonstop weekend that much more exciting.
