Can you balance between Running & Bodybuilding?
.
First of all, it depends on what is your definition of "balance"? If you want to be just average to good at both, being "good" means being able to complete a 10k run under 60min, and achieve that 40-43" inches Chest + 15-17" inches Biceps, the answer is possible yes.
.
However, if your definition of "balance" is being able to run long and fast like a competitive runner, at the same time achieve and maintain like a competitive bodybuilder's level physique, the answer is 97% No, (the other 3% is extra-ordinary, and if they choose to focus on one they might be an elite/pro in that field).
.
It's all about goals and priority.

I wasn't born with this physique... I've been skinny and fat, zero confidence to almost every area of my life. My life changed dramatically when I started working out for like 5 days a week. A few years later not only I saw improvement on my health and outlook, but it helped me to persist many other negative things in life! What I've learned from gym room... No pain no gain! The harder you struggle the more glorious the triumph! Yup, Life is Up and Down, but every downfall doesn't mean is bad. Just like working out, those pain can be really painful and annoying, but pain is the sign of weakness leaving the body, they are your strength for tomorrow! the best part? Your gains actually last much longer than your pain. Fitness is a gift of my life. I am blessed that I am able to share my gift to everyone here in this amazing platform.
