By the end, Lou was already conceding defeat on a subconscious level. He doubted himself and all because Arnold injected that bit of fear into him. It wasn’t the only reason Arnold took the victory, but it went a long way to ensuring that Lou’s head wouldn’t be in the game. Arnold’s mental prowess along with his physique is the reason behind his major success in and outside of bodybuilding. So if you’re a bodybuilder looking to compete, don’t just work on your lats or biceps or quads when you get into the gym. You have to work your mental game as well. There’s no room for doubt or error. If you want to claim the top spot, you better have your mind in the right place.
