The body that isn't used to
maybe the ninth, tenth...

:43:09
eleventh, and twelfth rep
with a certain weight.

:43:12
So that makes the body grow, then.
Going through this pain barrier.

:43:16
Experiencing pain
in your muscles and aching...

:43:19
and just go on and go on.
:43:22
And this last
two or three or four repetitions...

:43:24
that's what makes the muscle then grow.
:43:27
And that divides one from a champion
and one from not being a champion.

:43:31
If you can go through this pain barrier,
you may get to be a champion.

:43:34
If you can't go through, forget it.
:43:36
And that's what most people lack,
is having the guts.

:43:40
The guts to go in and just say, "I'll go
through and I don't care what happens."

:43:44
It aches, and if I fall down...
I have no fear of fainting in a gym...

:43:48
because I know it could happen.
:43:51
I threw up many times
while I was working out.

:43:53
But it doesn't matter,
because it's all worth it.

:44:13
Franco Colombu.
:44:15
The premier bodybuilder
in the world under 200 pounds.

:44:18
Five times a contender
for the Mr. Olympia title...

:44:21
he plans to win it this year from Arnold.
:44:24
Once the featherweight
boxing champion of Italy...

:44:27
Franco comes from
a small village in Sardinia.

:44:30
Here, when you want to say,
"Where are you going?"

:44:33
Somebody says, "Go to hell"
when they get upset.

:44:36
There they say, "Go to California."
:44:38
It's like a place where you never get there.
:44:41
And then finally I came to California, really.
:44:45
And now when I go back there
and they ask me, "Where you live?"

:44:48
I say, "In California."
:44:50
They're not sure if I mean it or if I'm joking.
