Biography Ronnie Coleman
Позже семья переехала в соседний город Бастроп, где Ронни и провел своё детство. Mother Ronnie, Jesse Benton, a woman is far from fragile, almost died during childbirth. The child was so large that he frightened the doctors with his size. Ronnie was the eldest of 4 children and the eldest man in the family, since his father did not live with them. From an early age, Ronnie Kolman made his fifty contribution to the family budget, sometimes worked as two work after school and on weekends, helping his mother.
Ronnie played baseball and basketball, but gave preference to American football. Coaches and sports comrades remember Ronnie as the most hardworking team member. His phenomenal genetics manifested itself by the age of 12: the guy had growth cm and weight of 80 kg. He looked very athletic, although at that time Ron had no idea about the bar. Out of curiosity, Ronnie began to visit the school gym.
He did not particularly understand the intricacies of power sports and, as he later understood, was engaged in powerlifting, although he still devoted his main time to American football. It was thanks to the successes in this sport that Ronnie was admitted to Grambling University. Here he played as part of a university team, whose coach was the famous Eddie Robbinson. Kolman had a good prospect of arranging a career as a professional football player, but Ronnie did not plan to connect his life with professional football.
He wanted to finish his studies as soon as possible and received permission to pass the final exams with exterior. Having graduated from the university with honors, Ronnie Kolman received a bachelor's degree with a degree in accounting. In search of work, Ronnie moved to Dallas. At first, I had to spread newspapers and pizza before he was accepted as an accountant in the pizzeria.
It was the most ungrateful and hard work in his life, although it brought a lot of money. After 2 years, Kolman realized that the accounting department is not for him. Since childhood, Ronnie had a secret dream: since he was given a toy police car, he dreamed of becoming a police officer. Once, Kolman came across an announcement of the recruitment of personnel to the police, and without hesitation he filed an application with a police school.
Work in the police gave stable earnings, free medical care, but most importantly, it allowed to train for free in the gym of the police station. From that moment on, Ronnie Kolman was seriously carried away by powerlifting. Once, a colleague invited Ronnie to visit the recently opened System Metroflex gym. The owner of the hall, Brian Dobson, immediately appreciated the magnificent genetics of Kolman and invited him to become a partner in training and defending the honor of the hall, participating in bodybuilding tournaments.
Ronnie did not show much interest in this, despite the prophecy of Dobson about the laurels of the acting bodybuilder, and hesitated with the answer. Then Dobson offered Kolman a free subscription to his hall if he performs at the Mr. Texas tournament. Ronnie could not resist such a proposal. Brian Dobson made significant changes to the purely powerlifter style of training Ronnie Kolman.
The training partner was Mark Hanlon, who instilled in Ronnie the taste for selfless training. After 3 months, Ronnie won the amateur tournament "Mr. Texas" in his category and in the absolute standings. Kolman's professional career did not work out at first. In the same year, Ronnie Kolman signed a profitable contract with MET-RX. Performing the dashed traction not warm enough and with errors in technology, Ronnie received hernia of the lumbosacral spine.
The injury questioned the further career in bodybuilding. It could break anyone, but not Ronnie Kolman. Ronnie continued to train hard and participate in tournaments. Starting his professional career, Kolman turned to Flex Willer with a request to devote him to the intricacies of professional bodybuilding. Willer gave Ronnie valuable information, helped in preparation for his first Olympia, "gave the phone number of Chad Nichols, a well -known food expert.
And subsequently, when Kolman went around his mentor on Olympias, Flex never expressed regrets about this. From the year, the cooperation of Ronnie Kolman with Chad Nichols began. The child fundamentally changed the diet of Ronnie, increased the cardio load to 2 hours a day. It was thanks to his advice that Kolman approached the "Olympia" of the year in the best form. Behind Ronnie already had experience in participating in two "Olympics": 6th place in the year and 9th place in the year, he hoped to enter the TOP-5, especially in the absence of Yatsa, who completed his career.
And then they announce the results of the tournament: sixth place - Chriss Cormier. Ronnie is delighted: he is in the top five! They declare further: Ray, Levron, Sonbati. Two remained on the stage: Flex Willer and Ronnie Kolman. Ronnie is immensely happy and proud: he is the second! But when he was declared the winner, Ronnie fell down on the stage without feelings.
He does not remember anything of this: he was kneeling on him, trying to bring him to his senses, not like a Cormier tried to put him on his feet.Ronnie saw all this only later in the video. With this victory, the long triumphal procession of Ronnie Kolman in professional tournaments began. After the Olympia, he took part in the 21st tournament to a year, and only once became the second.
Eight figurines Sandov, like Lee Hayin, were stored in the Ronnie collection. He did not happen to become ninely: Cathler had long breathed in the back of the opponents for a long time, on the eve of the "Olympia" of the year in relation to Cathler Kolman spoke straight: Jay has nothing to defeat him. To win Jay, he needs to be born again. But Cutler spent the year of titanic labor on training to the detriment of other tournaments, where he would be out of competition.
In addition, they made the trauma accumulated over the years, and the age of Kolman approached the summer mark. Rumor has it that Lee Hayin was fussing so as not to be circumvented by Ronnie Kolman - a born mesomorph. According to Ronnie, his hands, he inherited from his mother. Genetic testing of Kolman DNA was carried out. Studies have shown that it does not have a myostinum blocking of the gene inhibiting muscle growth.
Some called it a genetic ugliness, and Kolman-the "king of Frikov." But it was this genetic feature multiplied by hard work that allowed Ronnie to gain fantastic muscles. Kolman himself considers genetics the main factor in the success of the bodybuilder, but in rivalry with the same genetic uniques, the main training program becomes the main thing. Ronnie Kolman is a conservative person and does not change his principles.
So in the training he is faithful to his program and does not change it throughout his life. Only once did he make changes to his training, increasing the share of the pumping. Colman's training program consists of two complexes: one day - a power complex, the next day is a pumping. The power complex is practically powerlifting: a small set of exercises with large weights with a small number of repetitions.
The next complex is a large number of sets, exercises and repetitions. It was such a program that allowed Kolman to “blow up” muscles. Ronnie the ardent opponent of the “refusal”, considering him harmful, which he constantly speaks at seminars. In his opinion, the “refusal” does not stimulate the growth of volumes and does not allow to “break through” the muscle.
Kolman never works with maximum weights, never completely straightens the joints at the end of the positive phase of movement, believing that this will protect him from injuries. Kolman has a beautiful gym at home, which any pro will envy, but he loves to train in the "Logov" of the very hardcore hall of the world - "Metroflex", where dust and web, rusty iron and a special friendly atmosphere.
Ronnie Kolman is a policeman. When a white “Ford” with flashing lights drove up to the scene and a huge Ronnie came out of it, all conflicts instantly resolved by themselves. The work of the patrol began at 15 o’clock, and Kolman had enough time for training in the morning. Ronnie did not leave a work in the police for the career of a bodybuilder, she made it possible to get away from difficult training, but the most important thing for Ronnie - he helped people.
Standing on guard of the law, Ronnie repeatedly came across his violations: which American does not like fast driving! Leaving the police work, Ronnie left himself the badge and certificate of the policeman. Once, being stopped for speeding, he presented the police certificate: they say, his own. The policeman calmly “struck” the database number and arrested Mr. Olympia.
Ronnie Kolman is a millionaire. When Kolman was asked the question: what is the main thing for him in life, he did not hesitate to answer: “To make money! Numerous seminars, presentations, contracts bring him a considerable income. Only a contract with a food manufacturer BSN brought Kolman more than a million dollars. If he lived on the same prize from tournaments, then, according to Ronnie, he would have to take bottles.
In July, Kolemann launched the Ronnie Coleman Signature Series sports power line "RCSS, which initially consisted of two products, and in the year the assortment had already 11 items. Products are sold in more than in retail outlets. Ronnie, having completed a competitive career, spends 9 months a year on tours to the USA and different countries, promoting his products.
