Time To Compete

So soon after, the hard work paid off. He was gaining more and more fame and hence he received the title “LIttle Hercules” at the gym he joined. He had been working really hard to shape his body and mold it in the best condition possible. Soon after, his father wanted him to compete in shows and competitions as he thought Richard would win for sure. Even though as a kid, Richard had never been forced against his will to train, there were a few things she cleared up later as an adult. He admits that he had done a few odd training exercises that seemed unnatural to him when he looks back. He says that his father would often eat pizza right in front of him and made him eat lettuce in order to master self-discipline.He was also made to sleep on the floor so as to improve his posture. There were other things that his father made Richard do that most parents would never be comfortable with making them do. To some parents, the things that the little boy had to perform. But even till today, Richard does not see them as anything less than normal.
