Speaking
with Model, award-winning Adebiyi Adetola, Mr. Nigeria International 2013, formarly known as (Nigeria Brain Supermodel), BSc Computer Engineering from OAU,
Ife. Associate of Project Management, Fitness trainer/model.
Three
years after winning the title as Mr. Nigeria International 2013, Adebiyi
Adetola is still being acclaimed as the “Mr. Nigeria International”.
I
realized that models in their career pursuit have focus and are passion-driven.
As he actually broke it down in words and few pictures to express his life as a
fitness model.
Let's
face it, Adebiyi Adetola, Mr. Nigeria
International 2013, is of the opinion that we are all vain creatures.
We
see something nice on a magazine cover and instantly want to transform; chiseled
abs, trim waistline, buff upper bodies. It sticks on our minds so much it
becomes an obsession. But have you ever stopped to ask yourself what these
people are doing to achieve that look? Clearly there's a difference
between the Maxim cover model and the model bodybuilder with a neck that would
make Ray Lewis jealous – but what is it? As with most things, the devil
is in the details.
But
back to the reason you're here – how to look like Mr. Adebiyi. It is important
to realize that different body forms are part of the attributes that make us
individuals. The workout plan that works for him may or may not work for you.
It is advisable to have a goal, a picture in mind, “how can I achieve this form
with the way I've been created?”.
Then
one proceeds to research on workout programs or perhaps subscribe to a
well-equipped gym with a very experienced instructor. On top of that,
fitness models take their diet VERY seriously. I mean, how else are you
going to achieve washboard abs if you aren't on top of each and every thing you
toss down your gullet?
This
is the point I'd like to throw out a disclaimer – I'm not insinuating that THIS
is the best way to workout. I'm also not suggesting this is the most
practical way to work out for the vast majority of you. The motivation
for today's talk came in the form of numerous questions over the years from
curious fans and friends wondering how in the world they could get themselves
looking like that fitness model.

Here
is what he has to say on the subject of fitness:
“FITNESS, THE MODEL'S BEST
FRIEND.
Physical
fitness is the general state of mental, social and emotional health, and
physical well-being.
It
is a measure of the body's ability to function efficiently and effectively in
the individual's disposition, leisure activities and also being suitable to
perform specific tasks.
Studies
and extensive research have agreed that a dedicated regimen of physical
fitness, coupled with recommended and optimum nutrition can cure many chronic
health conditions caused by unhealthy habits and ailments that come with age.
It has also alleviated the conditions of Individuals with sleeping disorders
and mood swings. And ultimately, weight loss and toned-body goals are
fulfilled.
Statistics
show that individuals that engage in fitness programs or any sporting and
gaming (swimming, tennis, running, hiking, yoga, weights training, hunting,
etc) endeavors tend to live longer and have fulfilled lives and careers (social
and emotional health). These individuals exude confidence, esteem and mental
balance (mental health).
Yes,
Nigeria, Lagos hustle is real. But so also is your health. Most African adults hold down
sedentary jobs for a living. And pay little or no attention to the state of
their minds and bodies. I enjoin my dear readers to embrace fitness as a
lifestyle to improve our life expectancy (52.11 years as of 2012. USA and Kenya
have 78.74 and 61.08 years respectively). Make
a plan to start!
