This guy should teach Goodrum something about how to diet.

The guys work ethic = nuts. He said in an interview that he had not eaten pizza for 4 years.

And he's got a degree in mathematics. Very bright guy.

You see, Vince, in reality people use paragraphs- mostly in the appropriate manner.

Debussey used these so-called "paragraphs" to break up the sentences, in order to separate the fact that he was telling you that you need to learn how to diet and how J-Rod has not eaten pizza in a long time.

In other words, for you to properly understand this, what this means is that the paragraph about you being unable to diet and Debussey mentioning the lack of pizza being eaten by J-Rod, are completely unrelated.

people claim he's on drugs, but you should notice by now for the last 3-4 years he hasnt changed much, and his diet is clean year round, so why they claim drugs is b/c he looks good.  not a good criteria to say someone is on drugs.

i hope he wins this year.

Research J-Rod`s work, posts, life and videos and then come back and tell me your impression.

This has nothing to do with his physique of which it is quite superb.  Just thought I would clear that misconception up.  The kid, however, is dumber than than doorstop in front of an elevator.

I have to disagree with that.  Mathematicians suffer somewhat from "shit-brainitis" and often are even religious.  They look for patterns and operate solely upon rote.  Engineers often suffer this same shit-brainitis as they tend towards the religious and intelligent design as well since both are always seeking a simple equation without variance.  They also have no context or curiosity beyond their field for the most part and are a bit of a one trick pony.

Of course there are exceptions, but your average mathematics major is a pattern seeking moron.

disagree completely.  you can gain mass naturally, or you can get ripped naturally, losing some of your mass in the process.  but you can't do both at the same time without PEDs.

that he's able to stay lean all year yet hold onto and perhaps even build mass certainly suggests low dose test.

that, or testes the size of lemons

mr olympia eats pizza because mr olympia is pretty much unable to put on any fat at all, and would never be able to put on any musclke without stuffing himself full of everything in sight.

jrod is about 185 to 195, somewhere in there.... theres no reason at all for him to eat pizza in order to gain muscle and it definitely could make him fat

One pizza each week would most def Not make him any "fatter" at all.


But a statement like that is good for publicity to the "average" joe that doesn't know its ALL CARDIO related.

Anyone and everyone is able to put on fat as long as they eat enough, including Mr Olympia. I'm not talking about his eating pizza to put on muscle - I'm talking about him subjecting himself to a degree of dietary discipline that is unnecessary. Sure, he needs to stay strict precontest, but are you saying he can't afford to eat pizza once a week or even less frequently during his offseason? He isn't going to wake up fat from eating it once in a while.

If he likes being so super-strict with his diet, that's fine - it's his call. I'm just saying nothing earth shattering is going to happen from eating pizza once in a while during the offseason. Just because you are a bodybuilder doesn't mean that every little bit of what you eat or don't comes down to whether it will help you build muscle or not. What happened to eating for the sake of sensory pleasure?

im not him so i cant attest to his eatign habits or metabolism, but a 190 lb'er like him wold put on a bit of fat from eating a pizza. and he definitely does nto need to eat foods liekt hat in order to be able to grow. so i think he probably views pizza and other fatty foods as unecessary fat gains and probably wants to part in them. at one point i was that way.

if you think jay cutler, victor martinez, kai green, dexter jackson, etc etc...can put on any noticeable amount of body fat .... when the are 300lbs of muscle, loaded up on AAS, GH, slin, t3......    your not in reality. these guy will eat everything and anything they see. i know a pro who does the same, and he is onl 240 or so and doesnt use thyroids.

Really? I'm not saying those guys will look like a contestant from The biggest loser, but they do get soft and can put on fat if they eat enough. Are you saying they are all shredded by default? Why then do they do a 12 week precontest "cutting" phase and why do we see guys like Ronnie and Chris Cook look soft and flabby in the offseason? And Dexter has never been 300 lb of muscle, if we are talking about reality ;)

thats true however on dexters fram its equicvelant to 300lbs on somebody like nasser or ruhl

they looks fat in the offseason because they are bloated as fuck, and they are about 8-10%.  but they are not fat at all, its just tons and tons of water.

yes i agree!

with all that mass + drugs their maintenance calories are probably at least 4000, the caloric surplus they take in at times will be used up quickly. They would have to eat tons and tons to get fat.

I have to disagree with that.  Mathematicians suffer somewhat from "shit-brainitis" and often are even religious.  They look for patterns and operate solely upon rote.  Engineers often suffer this same shit-brainitis as they tend towards the religious and intelligent design as well since both are always seeking a simple equation without variance.  They also have no context or curiosity beyond their field for the most part and are a bit of a one trick pony.

Of course there are exceptions, but your average mathematics major is a pattern seeking moron.
lmao epic post. that's hella funny   ;D

jrod looks fkin awesome though

how do you build and maintain muscle with zero fat in your diet?

that is why i think his natural status should be questioned

i wouldn't give up pizza for 4 years even if it made me look like Kevin Levrone circa 92

yes, smart and wise are different.

however in no way shape or form does believing in god make someone "wise. and likewise, not believing in god doesn't make someone unwise.


however i would say that believing in god would make someone ignorant.  :P

Bodybuilding is to improve your lifestyle, so you can look good for yourself and for others and it also up one's condidence quite a bit.

but to make your whole life around bodybuilding, I would never do it.

going out to restaurants and eating whatever you want is needed once in a while

Of course there will be. He'll probably lose 1 pound per week (which = the smart thing).

not even 1 pound per week

anyway dieting doesn't mean he has to drop his calories to zero, I don't see why people think that being lean leads to muscle loss.

mr olympia eats pizza because mr olympia is pretty much unable to put on any fat at all, and would never be able to put on any musclke without stuffing himself full of everything in sight.

jrod is about 185 to 195, somewhere in there.... theres no reason at all for him to eat pizza in order to gain muscle and it definitely could make him fat

actually he says on his thread in MD that hes about 205-210

i'm no expert but isn't fat needed to maintain normal testosterone levels? and isn't testosterone needed to build and maintain muscle?

he looks one week out!  He should not stay so lean if he wants to put on some muscle mass he's going to have to put on some bf in order to do so, or he will just look the same every year.

WTF??  :o I would be lucky to be that lean after 19 weeks of dieting.....

He should have bulked up some more first. He still has plenty of time to get lean. It seems that getting lean is not a problem for him.

Maybe he uses something else to keep normal testosterone levels with no fat in the diet

Post by: mwbbuilder on May 10, 2009, 08:55:24 PM
What you don't understand is that there is no way he is maximizing the amount of muscle he COULD carry onstage if he ate more food. He won't necessarily LOSE muscle but he won't gain or maintain the way he could.

That's the difference in a great natural bodybuilder and one who is learning.

But many of you think he is "too good" to be natural anyway so you'll never get what I'm saying anyway.

I don't get how he is that lean at 215ish and goes down to 175ish for competition and doesn't appear to be that much leaner than he is at about 190 or so.

 there is no need for him to be any leaner.. all he is doing is losing tissue at this point.. he is already lean enough.. how can this guy expect to get any more lean muscle with this diet protocol.. it works for him for being lean yes.. but, you will not see him add much if anymore muscle in the future.. why all the heard work for no real progression..
  i see this all the time.. guys look great many weeks out and continue to still try and pull down even further.. by the time they hit the stage they are smaller than need be and just as conditioned as they were 4 weeks out.. silly

.... and the pictures you posted AFTER that were not "that lean and leaner."


Post your current picture of being "that lean and leaner" TA?  Where is it?  there is lean...and then there is JROD lean.  you cant come close to what he's achieved.

yeah that's the problem with Adonis, he keeps making claims without backing them up

i enjoy most of his posts, until he is on some long rant about politics, etc. 

as far as dissing jrod though, he isnt even on the same playing field.  jrod is in the majors and adonis is still playin t-ball. 

TA has a good physique and that is about it.
