As a teenager
Armand Peri
looked in the mirror at
his 125 lb body on his
5'11 frame and didn't
like what he saw.
That's not surprising
considering Armand's
artistic eye so he
immediately set to work
on creating an all new
work of art on the
living canvas of his own
body.
Hitting the gym with a ferocity that startled his
contemporaries, Armand was motivated by the challenge of
the impossible in transforming the visage of a gangly
boy to a muscular man. In just a year's time, Armand
added muscle mass equal to 25% of his entire body
weight.
What's particularly surprising about this colossal
achievement is Armand's lack of formal training and
knowledge. Inspired by the great ones in the
bodybuilding world (Schwarzenegger, Zane, Paris) he
dumped gallons of sweat in the gym agonizing over and
under piles of weight several hours per day.
During his first year of grueling training something
incredible happened; he won his first bodybuilding
competition.
Fueled by this first victory, Armand kept pushing
himself further and harder to bodybuilding greatness
throughout the 1990s winning several competitions at the local
and national level.
During his journey on the road to physical perfection
Armand discovered the importance of knowledge coupled
with genetics. Genetics is certainly a critical
element of success but knowledge, he learned is an even
more important element. Immersing himself in
hundreds of books on the subjects of nutrition, health
and bodybuilding, Armand acquired the collective
knowledge of a hundred experts and put that to work for
himself and the people around him that he coached and
inspired on to greatness.
After realizing his goals in the bodybuilding world,
Armand turned his energies to new challenges requiring a
fresh perspective.
