    Three most important characteristics of a successful bodybuilder!!

    So I want to hear what three characteristics you think makes a successful bodybuilder. Please keep it to three, I know there are a lot more you could list.

    Here is what I have in no particular order:
    Intensity, Consistency, Dedication

    it seems like who ever can put themselves through the most hell(diet, training, pain from gh) is goin to be the bigger and more conditioned one on the stage. if u cant take pain then get the fvck out cause u cant handle it.

    Since Diet and Genetics arent a characteristic, I will say Focus, Consistency, Resiliance.
