Johann Sloma, is it a waste of time and money to pursue a pro card if you know you don't

have the genetics to be a top pro. It depends.

It depends on what you're doing it for.

Okay, let me just start with the physics of it, the physiology of it.

You don't know if you don't have the genetics for it, because, okay, when I started, I was 20,

I don't know, I don't have the genetics for it. I know I'm working out, I know it feels good, I know things are happening.

I'm gonna, and I love what I'm doing. I just want to maximize this. I want to see how far I can go.

As I grow as I grow I'm like in my head I'm like I think I can be a pro.

It's not like you start one day and you look in the mirror and you're like, yep, I think I have the genetics.

You don't know if you have the genetics.

You have to put, that's the best thing about bodybuilding and that's what, that's why I would say sacrifice without regret.

The term sacrifice without regret means I'm going to go for that goal I'm

looking at and I'm going to have no regret of the outcome because I love what I'm doing and I'm going to go after that goal win, lose or draw because I love the process. I love what I'm doing.

So I have no regrets. I'm going to sacrifice everything I have to get to that goal and whether I win or lose I'm going to have no regrets because I loved what I was doing the whole time I was doing it.

That's kind of like finding out if you're genetics are good enough.

You can, you're not gonna know

until you put in enough time

to give your body the chance to show you.

Because if you're not eating perfectly,

if you're not training perfectly,

if you're not sleeping all the time and recovering,

taking the proper supplements, everything.
