In the third P, where you put the archetypal hero’s journey, I believe you meant to link to this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monomyth

I bought the research report. I’m such a science geek anyhow. And not that I’ve been through this body transformation…just lived that stuff so much irl and on the NS boards. Getting the report will be a good signal to noice filter!

Bret — Yes, that was nutty, and also a testament to how fun it is haning out with you and discussing bro-related things.

Rog — I think that would be a great idea! The Summit is known for taking new talent, and effectively chocolatizing it.

Bob — A couple things different about Kelechi’s prep were that we kept fruit & milk in his diet until the day of the contest. There were a few other things that were non-traditional, but those were two of the big ones.

Ray — They will definitely be there in spirit, if not in the chocolatey flesh.

JLB — Thanks for the kind words. Much midnight oil gets burned completing AARR.

Karla — Thanks for steering me in the right direction regarding presentation content (I took your suggestions to heart). I agree with you that I topped my previous years’ performances. This makes me excited to step it up even more next year.

Nice write up and a true pleasure hanging out with you in person. The presentations this year were exceptional. I really thought that you stepped up this year from last year in content and delivery. Anyone who follows your work would enjoy that presentation because it put so much of your core beliefs into a nice package. We will continue that discussion on maximum potential gains in the future if all continues to go well in my football season.

Bob,

Alan details Kelechi’s plan in the April issue of AARR. Get subscribed, it’s the best ten bucks a month you’ll ever spend. If you’re a trainer or nutritionist, AARR will broaden your knowledge base and keep you up-to-date. Even if you’re well educated to begin with, just getting Alan’s perspecitve on things is worth it, given his experience with various athletes.

Alan,

Any chance you’d feel comfortable illustrating 1 or 2 quick examples of how your prep of Kelechi differed from the typical bodybuilding “bro-dogma?” If that’s top-secret info, I understand

Nice write up, Alan. Between you and Bret I’ll say you both summed the summit up pretty well, so hopefully we get some new faces in on the fun next year.

Word on the street is that some mysterious figure known as Sexual Chocolate will be speaking. Purely speculation at this point, though.
