    MONARCH BUTTERFLIES
    January 2, 1975 - Mexico

    Kenneth C. Brugger discovered the long-unknown winter destination of the monarch butterfly in the mountains of Mexico. From 1937, for 38 years, Canadian zoologist Freud Urquhart patiently investigated to establish the route and destination of the insects. Using tags on the wings of some butterflies, he followed their migration trails to Mexican territory. Brugger, one of Urquhart's helpers, after a long period of traveling in the center of Mexico, found the first butterfly refuge. Within the territory of only 200 square meters, there are around 20 million butterflies. The area was cold and covered with oyamel trees and pine trees, a few kilometers from rural towns.

    BROOKLYN BRIDGE
    January 2, 1870 - Brooklyn, U.S.A.

    Construction began on the Brooklyn Bridge to cross the East River, New York City, USA, with a single span, a breadth of 1,600 feet navigable water. The 13 year project was started by John Roebling, and after his death, completed by his son Washington Roebling. It was opened on 24 May 1883. What was then regarded as the greatest engineering feat still stands in service today, and remains the world's only stone-towered, steel cabled bridge. Twice the size of the Niagara Suspension Bridge and four times the longest non-extension spans then attempted, the total length of this colossal structure is 6,927 ft. The road bed is 80 feet wide, at an elevation of 186 feet above high water.«

Bodybuilding supplements are optional for anyone who wishes to obtain a body packed with muscles. Bodybuilding supplements is a definite classification of "nutritional supplements" which aims to aid the increase of muscle mass. Some examples of bodybuilding supplements are protein, multi-vitamin, ZMA, and growth hormone.
There are some who contradicts the use of bodybuilding supplements. Others are encouraging bodybuilders to try the natural way of increasing muscle mass without the use of a supplement.

1. Proper diet.

Proper diet and nourishment is needed for you to obtain a thriving bodybuilding plan. It will serve no good to you and your body if you tire yourself with rigorous training yet hunger yourself from nutrients which your body needs.

Maintaining a diet when you are on a bodybuilding program is essential. Again, you do not need to go on a "œhunger-strike." What you need to do is eat smaller yet frequent meals/snacks all through the day. It is also important to regulate the amount of food you will be consuming. Some bodybuilding experts recommend that 40% of your meal should be composed of carbohydrates, the other 40% is to be set aside for protein and the remaining 20% are for "good fats."
2. Exercise.

Exercise is the most ultimate task you need to undergo if you intend to have a bodybuilder's physique.

You are not to concentrate in one type of exercise. There are several types of bodybuilding exercises that you need to undertake so that you will gain lean muscle mass. Some recommended exercises to undertake are:

- Isolation exercise – this type of exercise involves only one “joint movement. "A Bicep curl is an example of this type of exercise.
- Multi-joint exercise“ this type of exercise is believed to increase muscle mass as well as heighten fat reduction.
- Free-weight exercise – this type of exercise lets your body move through your exercising space.

The type of exercises you should undertake will sometimes depend on your body type. It is best to consult a bodybuilding trainer concerning what exercises to do. If you have been given "exercises assignment" then you need to:

- Obtain a training journal. By doing so, you will be able to track your development.
- Provide "workout intensity" every time you perform training.
- Keep up with your schedule. It is recommended that you should not miss any "training day." Missing a day on bodybuilding will cost you a lot.

3. Rest.

Who said that you need to do bodybuilding training twenty-four hours a day? Even though you workout that much, you will never achieve a good bodybuilder's physique without obtaining rest.

Rest is an essential part of bodybuilding which is overlooked by many. Studies show that during sleep, muscle growth happens. It is also a time to recover all the lost-energy during workouts. It is best to follow the recommended sleep time which is at least eight hours a day.

It is also important to do necessary steps to get a good night sleep such as:

- Prepare your sleeping area the way you are comfortable with. However, it is best if the room is dim and cool.
- If there are unpreventable noises in your environment, it is best to use earplugs.
- Cut on substances with caffeine.
- Inform your housemates the need for you to get a good sleep.

With the above-mentioned factors equipped with discipline and perseverance, you will be able to achieve a bodybuilder's physique without even using supplements.
