Richard Guest: The Last Time I Saw Richard, 2012

Self-portrait

My initial reaction to Richard’s brief was, “oh no!”, because I’ve studiously avoided being identified on The Future etc etc. Then I thought, “be sneaky, don’t show your face.” So I tried lots of avoidance tactics – laying my clothes out on the bed as if I’d just vacated them, altering my features in Photoshop, but neither worked very well because they were cop-outs. So I started messing around with mirrors in an attempt to present a jumbled-up version of my features, thus preserving a bit of unrecognisability. It didn’t really work either, but I quite like this shot.

Unshakable Hope

Until I began reading the Bible at the age of 21, I had no idea of what heaven was truly like.

Muscle Building Tips You Should Start Doing Today!

You have finally decided that it is time to do something about the muscles on your body. It is important to go about doing it in the proper way. So even if you have some basic information, it is important to do some research. The following article will help you with some important tips that you should know about muscle building.

Keep your experience with muscle building in mind when you workout. If you are completely new to this activity, then go for full body workouts. This will give you the most benefit. Targeted workouts are better for veteran muscle builders, as they may have problem areas that need more attention, or worn down areas that need rest. Do not overwork your body. In order to build muscle mass, your body needs a chance to recuperate. When starting out, work your upper on one day, then work your lower body the next day. Take one day off each week where you do no workouts at all. This will make the workout less of a job. Perform your lifting regimen every other day. After a vigorous workout, the protein synthesis process can take up to 48 hours to complete. In other words, your body builds muscle for up to two-day post-workout, and working out while your body is still recovering may undo your hard work. Enjoy the day of rest–it will help to maximize your results.

The article you just read gave you some really good advice that you should use as you pursuit your goal of muscle building. By taking the information you just read to heart, you will be able to get the body you desire and help keep yourself healthy and free from injuries.
