60 TRAIN, EAT, GROW 87More details on how the TEG men have merged Power/
Rep Range/Shock with X Reps and 3D Positions of Flex-
ion. Strength is soaring—would you believe 90-pound
incline flyes?
96 A BODYBUILDER IS BORN 18Ron Harris teaches his young protégé that going back to
basics—like regular deadlifts—can pack on some serious
size fast.
104 MUSCLE-SCIENCE ROUNDUPIt’s a muscle-building, research-wielding anabolic buf-
fet! We take a close look at many of the most important
studies of the past year that can help you build more lean
mass and burn more ugly fat. Oh,
there’s some sex-improvement stuff
here too.
136 GROWING STEADYCory Crow delves into the chest-
chiseling tactics of Omar Deckard,
the superheavyweight and overall
winner at the ’06 NPC USA. (This is
one big dude, gang!)
154 HEAVY DUTYJohn LIttle explores the wisdom of
Mike Mentzer. Was Mr. Heavy Duty
anti-aerobics?
164 X-FILESIt’s a size-building revelation—one of the missing links
to more mass. It could be one of the big reasons Casey
Viator gained 60 pounds of muscle in four weeks back in
1973. A scientific study says so.
176 POWERFUL MUSCLE MEDICINE 2John Little continues his interview with Doug McGuff, M.D.
This month they talk about once-a-week workouts, ways
to increase the anabolic response, Ray Mentzer, Arthur
Jones and advanced high-intensity methods.
202 IFBB MR. OLYMPIAYou probably know by now that Jay Cutler defeated
Ronnie Coleman for pro bodybuilding’s top title in Vegas
in September. But you haven’t seen our in-your-face
coverage with loads of giant full-page pics that’ll have
your eyeballs popping and your motivation hopping.
232 ONLY THE STRONG SHALL SURVIVEBill Starr continues his look at the overhead press. This
installment is all about how to overcome sticking points so
you can put up ponderous poundages. (Now, where did I
put that strongman-contest entry form?)

24 JANUARY 2007 \ www.ironmanmagazine.com
I am writing this two weeks before
election day. In the race for governor of
California, Arnold is the clear front-run-
ner, endorsed this time by the Los Angeles
Times. In fact, he’s been a front-runner for
the 35-plus years I’ve known him.
The early Arnold and the present Arnold
are fundamentally the same person. His
approach to the governor’s race has been
the same as his run for the Olympia titles.
He plans everything to the last detail, he is
totally focused on his goal, and he gives an
all-out effort till the goal is achieved.
Arnold loves hard work. As I’ve mentioned here before, his mantra
has always been, “Whatever I do, I always have a good time,” and
he applies that to everything. He surprised a lot of people in politics
with his unlimited capacity for work and his apparent enjoyment of
that effort. He says that his 16-hours-a-day, seven-days-a-week effort
is the most satisfying thing he’s ever done. In his words, “I love it!”
In his bodybuilding days, Arnold continued to raise the standard
over five consecutive years when he had no real competition. For the
most part he was head and shoulders (pun intended) above his con-
temporaries. In general, competition is an impetus to achievement;
however, Arnold was different. He was his own competition. The
challenge for him was—and is—internal, and that ability to keep im-
proving when there was a lack of true competition only underscores
his bodybuilding achievements.
Arnold has always bet on himself. Over the years he has invested
$30 million in his various political initiatives: from after-school pro-
grams for kids to the Special Olympics to his current campaign. His
confidence is the product of a clear vision and the ability to follow
through with all-out effort. That knack for recognizing opportunity
and acting on it also reflects his grasp of the way things really work.
He never stops learning. When Arnold took his plans to the people,
his ballot initiatives failed. He had misread the electorate, but he
learned instantly from the experience. After that misstep many
people counted him out in his reelection bid, but they underesti-
mated Arnold’s ability to learn from his mistakes and turn them into
a springboard to the next step upward. Arnold is fundamentally a
pragmatist: The past is only history to learn from. He lives totally in
the present but looks to the future. These are lessons that are of value
to everyone.
Character is the cornerstone of a life well lived. IM
