Personal demons, ongoing struggle with the mirror, sacrifices, goals, bottled-up feelings, hardcore training, and diet shape the daily life of bodybuilders. Their struggle to become professional bodybuilders is endless and excruciating, the competition is intense. All the months of intense preparation lead to a few moments on stage in front of the judges where they show off the body they have been building for so long. Some call it an iron sport, a lifestyle, a vanity, while to others bodybuilding is a religion. All agree, though, that once a bodybuilder, always a bodybuilder.
