Its guys like Ben Booker that inspire me to keep my
dream alive. While I have had a rough life growing up
and seeing the successes of these individuals I know
that these dreams are achievable.

Keep
telling your story Ben

Awesome, Dave! Keep moving forward!

This video changed my intrinsic feeling to upload
pictures on body space.. all i can say is thank you, so
much!

I have a lot of tips. First off, slowly deplete carbs,
or you can carb rotate (that is 2 days off and one day
load) one to two weeks out. Then 6 days out drink a
gallon of water per day and on the evening before the
photo shoot, cut out all intake. Hit me up on a
personal message and I will answer more questions you
might have. Love to help!

Ben love the story! Father of 3 daughters, love the
story, and want my own story. Super motivated and was
called out by my wife 2 weeks ago and now in 20212
Transformation Contest and hoping win. Any
recommedations for the last 3 weeks to get ready for
pictures (tanning, lighting, lfiting, diet, etc). How
do you get ready for a magazine shoot.

Posted by bookerbrother (135 days ago)

Tom, thanks a lot! Personal message me and let me know
if I can help you with any of your goals. Anything is
possible, never forget that!

Posted by squid51 (135 days ago)

Hey Ben, my name is Tom, i don't really work on adding
stuff to my Bodyspace. But, i was looking for
motivation while working out, i'm a senior in high
school and nothing i have ever watched has given me
more motivation then your story, congratulations man.

Posted by Cerpas (145 days ago)

Your welcome and thanks for personally offering to
help.. I actually do have a question for you

Posted by bookerbrother (148 days ago)

Thanks a lot Juan. Put no limits on what you can
achieve, combinr that with relentless training and
belief in yourself, and motivation will become a part
of your everyday life! Take care and let me know if I
can help in any way. PM me at bookerbrother on
bodyspace.

Posted by Cerpas (149 days ago)

Hi Ben this a Juan, I just open this account here at
bb.com after watching your video. I have been training
for endurance for a while and I just started training
differently to get ripped. I had a great workout today
by watching some motivational videos, not that I didn't
have motivation of my own but I found it did help a
great deal. I then looked for more videos and I have to
say yours will be added to my playlist as top 5 :)
Thank you for sharing your story. I'm happy for you and
your beautiful family. Keep up the great work...

Wow...amazing story!

This is what people say "BEGIN WITH THE END IN MIND"
:) ...

Posted by bookerbrother (187 days ago)

What's up Ben! Listen to that inner voice we all have.
When we commit to a goal and truly believe that it is
attainable, that is when the magic happens. It becomes
a part of you. Find that inner voice, listen closely
to it every day, and work on surrounding yourself with
people places and things that will help you get there.

Posted by BenSykes1995 (188 days ago)

Grab a hold of motivation wherever you can find it like
a life vest and don't let go.

Hey what's up! If you saw the ben booker stack at
appnut.com then you know that was the stack I took from
January of 2009 clear through when I won the 2010
bodyspace spokesmodel competitioon. Choosing one is
tough because it was the combo that didi it. Although
now I love LIT UP for pre workout and I still think
IGF-2 is an amazing product.

Posted by Xango-cisco (196 days ago)

Hey Ben congrats on your success man what a story - I
was on the Applied Nutr. website and wow they got a lot
of stuff can you share the main product you been taking
to get that awesome body? cheers and greetings from

Keep going RhaAL! Stay on track and aim high!

Posted by RhaAL (197 days ago)

Ben i saw this video looking on bodybuilding.com trying
to find motivation to get back into weights. I have
been drinking heavily sinse 2005, and all i have to
thank for it being overweight, unhealthy and unhappy.
This has been the inspiration i needed to stop drinking
and get back to the gym. Thank you

Posted by bookerbrother (197 days ago)

Stay focused on your goals one day at a time and lean
on Him for guidance. Remind yourself every morning who
you are and who you know you can become. Everything
happens for a reason. Good luck and God bless.

Posted by MackNW (198 days ago)

Your story is, and i know youve heard it a million
times, but its so inspiring! Ive been struggling to
quit smoking. Not just cigarettes mind you. Like you,
im trying to use fitness to quit and seeing your
success is very helpful! Good luck man!

Posted by bookerbrother (198 days ago)

Thanks a lot bricker! Anything is possible no matter
what the story.

accomplishment. Using fitness to work through it is

Thanks Sandman!!!

Posted by Sandman82 (201 days ago)

Awesome Video Ben!! Amazing story and very
inspirational!!!

Posted by bookerbrother (203 days ago)

Today is not tomorrow or yesterday, so live in it and
give it what you can, because none of us are guaranteed
tomorrow and life is too short to worry about about our
past.

Posted by josesimo (204 days ago)

Ben you are the pride of many athletes:)

Posted by Tonymagana (206 days ago)

Your story is unbelievable. Your lucky and your aa hard
worker. I hope i could be lie one day.

Posted by bookerbrother (206 days ago)

Hey brother! A have a few very simple rule of thumbs.
Being a husband and father of three I have never had
time to count calories. 1 gram of protein per pound
that you weigh and 3 grams of carbs per pound I weigh.
Split between 6the to 8you meals a day. There is a
sample diet of mine on the ink from the front page of
bb,com.

Posted by smilee (206 days ago)

Like your story.) please share with your diet.)very
intresting what do you eat and when.. ( maybe you find
some mistakes in the text. Dont worry its because I am
from Russia.))

Posted by bookerbrother (207 days ago)

You have to dream big! Then you have to narrow you
focus and drive, directing towards that dream. Then,
once it consumes your mind, and becomes a belief that
you believe in with every fiber of your body, you are
then on the road to making it a reality! Thank you,
and God Bless!

Posted by Gediminas84 (207 days ago)

The Big man is the man who have a big dream. You have
one Ben
