If you are going to try and hide something, sooner or later people are going to find out.
I loved doing the 'King of Queens', I have never had so much fun doing a show. People got to see a different side of me.
I did a movie 'I Love You, Man' and it got great reviews; it was very enjoyable.
The truth is, I've been the Hulk my whole life
If I hadn't lost my hearing, I wouldn't be where I am now. It forced me to maximize my own potential. I have to be better than the average person to succeed.
Believing in myself and not to be afraid of taking any risks. I have to be better than the average person to succeed. That’s why I chose bodybuilding. If I became a world champion, if I could win admiration from my peers, I could do anything.
You are going to have bad days and have good days.
It's funny how sometimes how the public some people think I was born like this. That I maybe I sleep and I do big muscle, but it’s a lot of work to look like this and to be in this kind of condition.
I certainly don't agree with the bodybuilders who say you can get big forearms just by squeezing the dumbbell handles when doing curls. In a few cases this may be true, but those guys would build big forearms by merely eating eggs in the morning. Most bodybuilders, myself included, have to work very hard for any kind of meaningful forearm development.
There is no excuse for anyone not to train three times a week...Anyone can change their mind if they want to. It's all about motivation
WAIT TILL THEY SEE THESE ARMS IN AFRICA. THEY LOOK BIG ENOUGH TO ME
To be a champion you must act like one, act like a champion.
The attitude is very important. Because, your behavior radiates how you feel.
Bodybuilding saved my life because I overcame the nerd stage. I got picked on. I was fascinated with power, and then I decided to take that direction because I knew that it would make me feel good about myself
