Martyn Ford, un joven inglés amante del gimnasio, experimentó una increíble transformación física.

A través de las redes sociales ha compartido su experiencia de vida: pasar de ser un adolescente muy delgado, a un hombre con impresionantes músculos.

We all have a starting point, don't let that put you off! Become who you want not who you are, if your not happy-CHANGE! I have literally doubled my size, I was so thin and ill due to a strange time of my life, I lost weight fast when I was younger due to stress, it took me 12-18 months to really over come the illness, and I came back fighting. People often presume you have always been the way you are today, very quick to judge and assume. Where you have been makes you who you are, so I really appreciate everything I have now as it wasn't always like this. Change is possible, you just have to want it enough to do something about it. Not just change in the physical sense, I mean life! Don't give up, or you will never know what you could become! #martynford #motivation #focus #positive

Tras 13 años de arduo trabajo en el gimnasio, su cambio ha sorprendido en las redes sociales.

Según reporta el diario DailyMail, Martyn gasta 400 dólares cada semana sólo en alimentación, ya que cada hora quema calorías y necesita estar bien alimentado para mantener su masa muscular de 150 kilos.

Chest day- TOP TIP after each set of fly's today I did these. Take a deep breath, contract and hold as hard as you can. This is great for giving that chest and extra little pump, works great for bringing out extra definition and detail when dieting down also. Today's session was immense, I followed my plan, dropped my weight, stuck to 60 second maximum rest and had an incredible session! No ego at all, just pure hard work! #chest #tips #bloodysweattears #muscle #martynford

Esta obsesión lo llevó a estudiar nutrición y ciencias del deporte en la universidad. Además puso su propio gimnasio en Minworth, Reino Unido.

Éstas son algunas de sus imágenes más impresionantes que lo han llevado a ser nombrado el "Hulk" de las redes sociales

So the bulking has started, today's session with constant tension, forced reps and rest pause training was insane! My ego was definitely left at the door! If you can manage to train for you and not worry about what the man next to you is thinking then give this a go! Set up the flat bench and have a weight you can perform 12-14 reps with. Do your first set of press, of 10 reps, speed 2:2 this is a controlled steady speed. Go deep with the movement, when pushing back up go 2/3 up so your not locking out fully bringing the triceps into play. The rest between sets no longer than 60 seconds. Take hold of the same weight and repeat the movement again, repeat the same process 4-5 sets. Get a spot as sets 3-5 you should be struggling to reach 6-8 reps on your own. Get a spot to try and push out a few forced reps. If you really want to increase intensity add a rest pause set in sets 4-5. So once you have completed maximum reps, rest the weight for 10 seconds and try to push out 2-3 more reps, rest another 10 seconds and do again. You can use this method with any exercise. #martynford #bloodysweattears #chest #muscle #tips #youtube

Ok so I've been asked about how to keep from swinging when curling. Very simply, start from the bottom, position your feet shoulder width apart, keep knees slightly bent (very important) chest proud and retract the shoulders. Then keeping that torso position lean forward slightly at the hips. This puts your body at an angle which helps keep cheating to a minimum. Remember the only movement should be at the elbow joint. Keep your wrist looked in a position which eliminates forearm movement. Keep a constant controlled speed and feel the muscle / mind connection #bicep #training #muscle #tips
