Pat what do you mean by "repping" exactly?  How many reps?

Oh lawd!  ;D

More than one.  If I ever get the guts to put my puny butt on camera, I'll show you. :)

Why is the question so hard for you to answer?

Like I said, I'm not very strong.  
Don't you have to be strong to be a powerlifter  ???

I don't compete in that sport.  But, I combine certain elements of it into my training.  It's the only way to fly!

 I can do reps with 495 on squats and dead lifts, but I'm not setting any records.  


Is this your twin brother ?

The smith machine is a joke!  I wasn't even really training legs that day.  My friend had a new camera phone and wanted to test it out.  Those aren't even full reps.

I don't know why everyone is calling this guy a liar about being natural


I believe he is natural and can have that sort of size and conditioning without drugs




I mean- the guy is black

Pat, if you are in fact Natural I give you credit for doing the Team Universe which is no longer a "steroid free show".

Ur best bet is to take this to another section of GB OR just walk away.....

Thank you.  But, I believe most (if not all) of the other competitors are also natural.  Still, your post is nice to hear.

Hi Pat, great physique.  I'm also a natural bodybuilder, just wondering what you thought about creatine and whether or not it makes a large enough difference to use on a regular basis.

Hi Pat, great physique.  I'm also a natural bodybuilder, just wondering what you thought about creatine and whether or not it makes a large enough difference to use on a regular basis.

IMO, it's not necessary.  I haven't used it before, so I can't tell you if it really works as well as people say it does.  Diet goes a long way, and has more to do with it than any type of supplements.  That said, I believe protein and multi-vitamin supplements can make a difference, but only because they allow you to consume certain micro and macro nutrients without all the extra calories.  

I hope this helps.  I wish there were more questions like these being posted.  Thank you.

Awesome, thanks for the quick reply and honest answer.  What supplements do you recommend then?  Protein powders, NO Explode, celltech, that sort of stuff?  Also what do you think of Humapro, it's supposed to be better since it was designed for human consumption whereas milk is obviously not meant for humans.  I want to get every edge possible but obviously don't want to use drugs.  Thanks.

I won't plug any companies but: standard whey protein powder (concentrate), meal replacement powders (whey + carbs and vitamins), protein bars and MRP bars.  Also try and find a cost effective vitamin; don't purchase anything fancy or overpriced.

Don't know about Humapro, bro, sorry.  The supplement industry is always changing and I can't always keep up with it.  But, I know these, that I've mentioned, work.

Good luck, and be sure to remember the "little people" on your way to success.  I'm kidding about that last part, but you can really go as far as you want with the right mindset.

Edit.  Also, whey protein isolate is great if you have issues with lactose.  I have that problem myself.

oliolioli, I never saw this coming.  You sounded so genuine in your comments.  No hard feelings, and good luck with your approach.

What do you think of a weekly 5 day split as opposed to doing some sort of a push pull split?  I'm thinking Mon-push, Tues-pull, wed-rest, and then repeat, I'm afraid 2 days may not be enough rest time, what do you think?  Of course this is an issue for us naturals, since recovery is not aided.

Hopefully, you won't embarrass me again.  I think it sounds like a good idea.  Different people respond better to certain types of workouts.  The only way to know for sure is to do this training for a while.  I like to do each body part once a week, it's what works for me.

Hey Pat, great physique man - ignore the bitter haters.

Question, I was reading an interview where you stated you consume 6 cans of tuna a day, is this accurate?

Thanks.  Sometimes more, but yes.  2 at a time to be specific.

No, sir.  Honestly, it's best to keep it simple and stay as natural as possible.
