Sean Susini Interview (2): "Always try to become better than what you are now"

In the second part of our interview I've been talking with Sean more in detail about bodybuilding competitions, modeling and his way of life.

Sean, what do you prefer: bodybuilding competitions or modeling?
I prefer bodybuilding because it is more of a sport than a bragging type thing.
How much discipline is necessary for the preparation of a competition?
Much discipline is needed. Goals have to be set and attained. Diets are strict. And I need to practice a posing routine.
Can you explain us your diet?
I go on a strict diet when I am getting ready for a competition. I generally eat high protein meals and sometimes will have protein drinks.
Are you cool or stressed-out and excited before a
competition?
You are very depleted, thirsty, rushed and confused about scheduling of events. It always feels great after it's over.
Do you get many offers from model agencies after a successful competition?
I get offers all the time. But I usually don't take them for various reasons.
Isn't modeling an easy job for you?
Modeling is harder than it seems if you are a bodybuilder. It is like doing an all day workout because you have to stay pumped. A photo shooting can be very tiring.

How do you handle stress and discipline?
I just deal with it. Just think of the task at hand and do it.
A 15-year-old boy told me he admired you, because for him you are like one of these superheroes in cartoons - but you are even real! Do you like some of the cartoon superheroes too?
Yes, Spider-Man and Batman. Even though they aren't real they have good morals and try hard.
What's important for you in life? Do you have some kind of philosophy?
You know the path, so follow it. Don't dwell on the past. Always try to become better than what you are now. Be kind and helpful to others.
Thanks for this conversation, Sean.

Sean Susini Interview (1): "Break the Pain Barrier!"

Sean Susini is entering a new era of his life. The natural bodybuilder from Denville, NJ has racked up many bodybuilding championships, including an unprecedented four years in a row INBF Hercules International. Sean, 20 years old and no longer a teenager, continues working out and is preparing for professional competition.

Sean began weight lifting already as young teenager. Over the years, Sean developed a solid work ethic, working out almost everyday. I had the pleasure to talk with Sean. Here is part 1 of the interview. It's a conversation about bodybuilding, about fame and about life.

Sean, what's your first advise for someone who wants to get fit with workout?
Get regular exercise, eat right and get plenty of sleep.
You say "Eat right". What does this mean for a bodybuilder?
Eat low proportions of fat and well balance nutritious meals. I recommend a proportion of 45% 35% 20% between protein, carbs, and fat.
What do you think of all those supplements which are offered?
When things are too easy you will become weaker. Many of today's health accessories, such as drugs, medications etc., are keeping our bodies from building immunities. Humans tend to adapt to their surroundings.

What do you recommend for a succesful workout?
Do high reps, circuit training and running.
And especially for bodybuilders?
Do high intensity workouts, don't miss any workouts. And break the pain barrier!
Is there something special in your exercises what differs from usual workout routines?
Yes. Sometimes I do very high reps. I will put on a CD and perform reps for an entire CD, which is usually around 45 minutes.
Is there any information in public and media about workout which you regard as nonsense?
Yes. Many authorities limit the age at which you should start working out. I disagree with their limits. And bodybuilding does not mean that you will become muscle bound and loose movement.

You've got many fans especially by the internet. How much has internet influenced your life?
Internet has influenced all life in America. My web site brings a lot of acclaim. I am able to easily respond to requests for advise.
How do you handle the fact that you have fans all over the world?
I don't think about that. But I guess it's cool.
Do you have an idea for what they admire you most and what's your feeling?
They admire my accomplishments at a young age. I am glad to be a motivation to them and it encourages me to try harder.

Part 2 of the interview will follow soon. There Sean will talk more in detail about modeling and bodybuilding competitions.

Sean Susini: More than Muscles

Sean is a phenom in many ways. Very early he started working out. At the age of 15 he entered his first bodybuilding competition and triumphed in the 2001 INBF Naturalmania Championship. By age 18 he had nine first place victories in contests throughout the northeast USA. In 2005, 19 years old, he won the Hercules International Bodybuilding Competition for the fourth time in a row - that was unprecedented.

Winning team: father and son

Sean says the support of his whole family was very important to his success as a young bodybuilder. "My whole family is very supportive and they always come and see me when I compete." You instantly recognize the importance of his family, when you go on his homepage and see the relaxed, cool family photos.

But there is one person who has been especially decisive for the career of this boy from New Jersey: Domenico, his dad. His dad and his manager. Both - father and son - are a winning team. "My dad is the one that got me started in bodybuilding. He used to be a bodybuilder when he was younger. He started me on my training program but by the time I was 17, he could no longer keep up with me. That was pretty cool."

Workout method: high reps

For his training Sean maintains a high protein diet. As a natural bodybuilder Sean definitifely says No to steroids. Eventually Sean developed his own, very special training method, working out almost everyday. "Sometimes I do very high reps. I will put on a CD and perform reps for an entire CD, which is usually around 45 minutes."

What else is necessary for him for staying in good shape? "The workout in my video is the core regimen that keeps me fit. Cardio is something I do too and it really helps keep off the fat. And I love to wrestle and play ball. Most sports I enjoy. Other than that, I don't spend much time on my appearance."

A reserved hero

This is one more amazing point: Sean is natural, not at all arrogant despite his achievements and his popularity, not feeling like a star. On the contrary: Sean is even reserved - and therefore all the more likable. That's why he should become a star.

"I'm really kinda shy to tell the truth. But, once I step on stage and feel the support of the crowd, it's a real rush and I really get into showing off what I've accomplished with my physique. As for the attention off stage - yeah, that's cool. I enjoy it when people look at me. Working out is hard work and it's nice to know that the results are appreciated."

Dedication and hard work

Sean didn't start getting positive feedback on his physique until he started working out at 15. It was about that time that girls started noticing him. Sean remembers and smiles: "Yeah, I definitely liked that!"

Now he showcases his versatility through bodybuilding events, workout DVDs (RealworkoutsInc. and Sean Susini Enterprises), appearances in print magazines and modeling. Outstanding: his shootings for Allamericanguys.com. The fantastic results can be seen here on this page.

Dedication, hard work and smartness - With these special qualities Sean will surely get on in life, no matter whether he wins on the stage actually each time or not.

Mr. Universe and Tarzan

It will be very interesting on what activities Sean will concentrate in the future: bodybuilding, modeling or even acting. In fact he has already taken acting lessons and is thinking about scripts which have been offered to him.

"My true passion is bodybuilding. I like the results, the competition ... and the applause! I'd like to be a star bodybuilder and work in the world of fitness. If they wanted me to be the next Tarzan, that would be pretty cool."



Sean's stats - cold, no pump:

Height: 5' 11
Weight: 205 lbs
Biceps: 17.2
Chest: 48 (expanded)
Thigh: 26
Calf: 17
