And looking at CJ's transformation do you think being a sponsored athlete helps ? It makes it your " job " then, and IMO followoing on from the motivation l have had form Paul Scarb " prepping " me l think it gives you added to drive to produce the goods. I know we should all have our own motivations etc but from my own personal experience l think it could help certain people ( myself included ) to reach another level. Imagine the thought of the humiliation of losing your sponsor becuase you didnt make the grade ? Thoughts ? Ps I use the word " prep " losely, not because of Paul but this was a sort pf prep for a holiday and not a show.
Following on from my holiday " prep " What sort of money do ppl get in pre contest sponsorship, if in fact they do? In BB I mean.
Following on from my holiday " prep " Its not about money mate, its about a few free sups and someone putitng faith in you as an " athlete " and the fact they feel you can produce the goods.
Following on from my holiday " prep " So if they only get a few free supps etc, how do the ppl who take peds, afford it all? I sort of thought that an organization would say 'here's £xxx for you expenses, & if you win you'll get proper sponsorship' Coz otherwise isn't it only the ppl with spare dosh that can do it? Or have I got it completely wrong??
Following on from my holiday " prep " I think if your representing a company you want to do your best so I think it would help. Same goes for representing your country. You won't turn up looking like crap.
Following on from my holiday " prep " They sponsor you because you look good in the first place, you don't look good BECAUSE they sponsor you... So IMO having a sponsor would make no difference, because unless you're already consistently putting in the work throughout, you won't get offered a sponsor in the first place... If you need a sponsor to motivate you, you definitely won't be in any shape to get offered a sponsor!
Following on from my holiday " prep " I think it helps alot as you won't be just letting yourself down. Still baffles me how some can afford all the meds as some can run into ££££s a month.
Following on from my holiday " prep " I think you have to realise as Zues says the people who get noticed and offered sponsorship already look good and compete on some level. I know you say its " just a few supps " but any little bit helps surely ?
Following on from my holiday " prep " Don't embarass me!! Just didn't quite interpret it right! Bit slow this afternoon.
