Non Bodybuilding topic!!

Something for all of us to think about!!!

Two statements that will serve you very well. The first is: There will always be war. There will always be those who aggravate within others a sense of trouble in order to promote the solution that they already have their mind made up about. And so you're never going to come into agreement as a mass consciousness that this is "the way." There will always be disagreements; therefore, there will always be turmoil; there will always be war.
The other statement, that is our favorite is: Well-Being will always abound, so the dominant experience of the majority of people will always be one of Well-Being. So you can decide, at any point in time, in what part of this you want to play. You can use anything as your excuse to align with Well-being, or you can use anything as your excuse to not align. The thing that we think is at the heart of this discussion is my own personal power. We think that's what you are, sort of, struggling for and reaching for.

I will be back!!

Well it is four days since the show in Dallas Texas and I have had time to reflect. I cant be upset with my placing as I did everything I could do for this show. It was a staked show with the best pro's around. Again I am still learning as it was only my 4Th pro show. But I had a great time in Dallas. The people there are so friendly and it is very cheap too.
As for this week I taking some down time to rest and eat up a bit then next week I start my off season prep. I am also taking a whole year off competing. So I have a whole full year to add more size. In this time I will be working with Hany Rambod though out my off season. So I am looking so forward to seeing the improvements.
Thank you to all my fans who sent me emails when I was in Texas. I came back to over 100 emails from people who said I looked good at the show. Troy Brown is a fighter and never gives up. This game has a lot of ups and downs and it is the one who just keeps taking the hits comes though the champ in end.
Well I got to go and eat some well deserved pasta and a diet coke. But I will be putting progress off season pics on flexonline though out the year so stay tuned for that.

God bless you all and remember...Feel good!!!!!!

4 days to go!!!

Hi Everyone,

Well it is almost time to battle again. I am four days out and have one more training and cardio day left tomorrow then it is time to fill out and rest up for the big day. I must say I don't think I have ever worked as hard for this show. It has been a great journey and a long journey as well. But all I know is that I am ever so happy with the way I look. I just hope that Troy gets noticed and get some great call outs. But what ever happens I am doing what I love and going up against the best in world. I will dedicating this contest to my mother Ann Brown who passed away 12 years to the day. I love you mum.......I know you will be there with me in Dallas.

Again I must say thank you to all my fans, Friends and family for all your love and support. Troy is so ready!!! To my little Taz who has really looked after me this last week...you are my angel baby, I am ever so proud of you!!! I love you baby :)

One last thing before I go is that I love my son very much I hope one day you will understand and that you can be proud of your dad.

God bless everyone. I will pose my heart out on that stage on Friday. Nothing but 110% effort on the day.

Be happy everyone and feel good!!

14 Day's to go baby!!!

Hello everyone,

How are you all doing. I hope life is treating you great.

I am getting real close to the show now (14 days out) and still working extra hard to bring my sharpness though. So I been posing and squeezing my muscle alot. Even when I stand in the supermarket I am always squeezing my glutes and quads lol. I do get a few wried looks let me tell you. One thing I forgot to say in my last blogs is that for this show I used the the gauntlet for my cardio as I normally do power walking on the treadmill. I seem to burn much more calories on it. Plus time seems to fly by when using it. Right now I am not getting hardly any sleep as I up going to the bath room all night so I am pretty tried but it all wroth it as the thought of getting on another pro stage again makes me so excited.

All I can say is that I have worked so hard for this show, not just the last three months but since the ironman. I was back in gym the day after the show. So what ever happens in Texas I am going to have the time of my life and enjoy every single moment of it. I am living my dream doing what I love so it don't get any better than this.

I really think if you keep a positive mind set when getting ready for show it makes it so much more easier but the key for me is to always be happy and think happy thoughts every single day.

Again I going to thank the love of my life Meghan Mccurdy. We have both have been dieting together as she is competing in the biggest show of her life next weekend and to have someone work just as hard as you is so, so inspiring. Thank you baby for everything I can not thank you enough. I love you taz!!!

I will post again next week so stay tuned as I will be a week out.

God bless to each and everyone of you. May all your dreams come true.

4 weeks out from Europa Pro!!

Hello and good day to all of you.
I hope you all are safe and well and staying healthy!!
I am now 4 weeks out from the Europa Pro in Texas.
This will be my 2nd USA pro show and my 4th pro show in total. As always I would like to say that what I am doing now is my childhood dream and I am ever so thankful and grateful that I am able to this.
I am working very hard as ever. Really trying to bring my best ever condition to the table for this show. I am feeling very positive and happy. For this show I was in pretty good condition six weeks out so we have been really focusing on keeping me full as I have been getting a little flat in my muscles on this diet. I have been very constant on my cardio, diet and still doing my FST-7 training while dieting, which I have been following after the Ironman pro show in LA. I really hope to see a difference in my waist line this time as it was to big at the Ironman. My weight this morning was 220lbs. When I left for LA to compete at the ironman it was 228lbs so feeling a lot tighter this time round.
I just want to thank all my fans and family for all there support. Special thank you to my fiance and best friend, training partner, soulmate Meghan Mccurdy for all her pep talks and words of encouragement, I just want to thank you for believing in me. So 4 weeks out and feeling good but still not happy still have a lot of work to do.

God bless to you all and love life.

Troy Brown :)

Ps Feel good everone.

10 weeks Out.

Hi Everyone,

I hope you all are safe and well.
I am 3 weeks in to my diet. It does not feel like I am in diet mode as I am trying to get my weight up. I had a bit of a slow start to the diet. But now I am starting to fill out much more.
I have gone right into doing my cardio first thing in the morning and putting away a lot of food, which is hard for me. If anyone knows Troy Brown, that I do find it hard to eat sometimes so I spend most of the force feeding. But that is all good as I am hoping my appetite kicks in next week. As for training, well it is going well and my strength is coming back as you all well know I stopped the HIT training after many years and now doing more volume (FST-7) My goal is to bring up my weak body parts. I have been training arms twice per week. Well that it folks, not much to report just that I really want to nail my condition at the Europa. I will do what ever it takes to get it.

God bless all and train hard.

Whats up people???

Hi everyone,

A new fresh week is now here. This very sort offseason for me has been a strange one to say least. I am at my lightest weight ever in my offseason. This time last year I holding my weight around 250lbs and right Troy Brown is bang on 235lbs. So I am not far away from my competition weight which was at the ironman 241!!! So your thinking why is Troy so light in body weight...well it is going to be a surprise come August at the Europa (I hope)

Since the Ironman I have been working closely with someone in the USA we have really payed more attention to my arms and shoulders. I am praying everyone can notice the results at the Europa. I pray for some good call outs!!

To everyone waiting to get there hands on my very first training DVD...it has been done and we have just finished the cover so not long before it goes out to the public. I am also in the process of filming another DVD here in Canada. We start filming The new DVD next month.

Keep checking my blog for more updates!!

god bless all

Troy :)

PS To my son Rory Brown...... your dad will not let you down.
