maybe some members of this site (including me) should follow suit
I think a lot of guys in the 200-240 range would be dissapointed with the amount of actual muscle they have when dieted down.
-
I'm actually amazed at how much muscle he was able to keep. He must have done everything right.

Fuck that is why i have no desire to get into "contest" shape. I just want to get lean enough that i have nice abs and keep as much mass as i can.

Just goes to show how much fat permabulkers are carrying around all the time.

when i was 230+ i was dead sure i'd never get down to 200 without losing a load of muscle.
today i'm around 206 and could easily lose another 10, probably 20 if i wanted to get THAT lean.
i think a big reason people get their ideas skewed is if you're a "permabulker" or otherwise just a heavy lifter you have no idea how light one can be and still lift heavy. it's so rare to see anyone under 200 pounds using three plates on a bench so the guys who are 250-ish and getting a few reps assume that if they're that strong they must not REALLY have much fat on their body. i'm quickly learning how false that is.

Ok guys i finally decide to post my picture... yes i talked alot of shit now i give you the chance to talk shit about me lol, I know i look like dogshit and fairly small but i haven't been training very long...
The truth is, I have been training 1.5-2 years alot of the first year was not ideal training. Currently i am 6ft.2 and 215 lbs started at 175lbs from being a half marathon runner(maybe i gained 15 lbs of muscle onto my frame in last year and a half and alot of fat)
as far as past lifting claims go.. yes i can deadlift 405 for 2 reps (not 8 : D). and i curl 50kg barbell x8 not 65kg. :)
i just took shower before these picture.. that is why hair is wet and my arms look even worse because i don't know how to flex them in that position lol.
You have to click the picture to see full size...

J/k

Definate potential
Do you train heavy?

Looking good Method

haha i know :P
oh well i stopped caring if i looked like shit or not that's why i decided to post, no more bullshit.
thanks if you weren't being sarcastic but i know that i look crap compared to most of getbig and the main reason is time, just haven't been training properly for long enough to get near a good physique.

I would drop those heavy barbell curls
they only work for short guys ala Lee Priest
You need to pump those guns up 3 times per week with lots of supersets to get them growing.
A heavy arm workout once a week won't do shit

just get rid of the hair

Not that I really care but I suppose you have the peer-reviewed science to back up your claims?

You have good biceps, triceps are lagging a bit. Need to bring up the legs too. Otherwise, good development.

he's a tall guy who needs to be constatnly stretching and expanding his fascia
Liftnig heavy is way overrated

Boost what was your bodyweight in the before and after pics?

But what does it matter what height he is? I'm looking forward to reading the studies, you seem to know your shit.

Lol,

I just found the pics on Palumbo's site. It's one of his clients.
It's a 26 week transformation

Biomechanics
Method has long arms that need specific movements to grow
3x per week Bi's Tri's,
and you will also need a specific forearm workout
don't listen to these guys who say "Heavy deads will hit ya forearms"
That only works for guys with great forearm genetics

i will start to train biceps/tris 2x per week after the diet i'm starting on monday. but 3x would probably be too much to fit into schedule.

Yea 2x is fine,
Just try to really pump them up as much as possible
I'm guessing you got poor calves?

i've seen worse but mine are not good.
Just don't have genetics for calves, some 50 year old japanese man in my gym walks around with huge calves and he never even trains legs. lol.

I would advise training calves and forearms as much as you can, focusing on getting as much blood into the muscle as possible.
They are never going to be a strong point, but if you don't really focus on them, in two years time they will look seriously weak compared to the rest of you

i have monstrous forearms but weak calves

You just spew out a lot of claims and virtually no explanation/proof to back em up.

Looking good boost, good job bro.

hahaha, i'm the same way, i think my calves are AT MOST an inch bigger than my forearms. :-\

I think when you actually follow through with a diet you have to come to terms with the fact that you will be a concentration camp survivor when you are finished...
Good body part on Deicide=calves
-

i also get a much better pump training forearms than training calves

i get a pump in my forearms just walking heavy dumbbells from the rack to the bench for inclines.

Forearms are by far the easiest muscles to get a pump in.

it ain't all that great when your calves are 16 inches and your forearms are maybe an inch less. :-X

I never claimed to have evidence such as 'picture of TA injecting' or some such thing. People have communicated this information to me and I already quoted someone. You could be natural, you may not be. You have a good physique. It doesn't really matter either way. There are just tons of other claims you have made, e.g. 225x112, etc. that have never been proven. Besides people who scream natural the loudest are always suspicious. Just now Croatch claimed to have gained 50lbs of muscle mass in one year. Sounds suspicious. Do you really think that everyone believes you at your word?

Croatch isn`t natural. He has used in the past. I didn`t scream anything, and even if I had, the supposition that just because someone vehemently asserts something regularly, the reciprocal proclamation therefore must be true even without evidence is completely baseless and invalid.

Muslims and Christians tend to scream very loudly about their belief in god. I do not doubt that they really believe in the invisible man living in the sky. In fact, the more vehement they tout it, the more inclined I am to believe that they are serious in their delusion.
What about your claim to deadlift 225lbs x112? This is one of the most famous getbig claims. Evidence?
-
I find it hard to believe adonis is natural, then again he has been training for over 5 years no?
225x112 = no way in hell.
-

think about it like this, could you get 30 in a row with 225? most people who train seriously could, well do the 30 and rest either at the top or bottom but don't take your hands off the bar, then pick it up and do 15 more, keep doing that until you get to 112, it's VERY possible.

Never said it wasn't possible, just would like to see TA do it.

I think he has been training much longer than that.

That's right.
"Pencilneck" likes his boys clean shaven.

I absolutely believe he could do it, he's pulled at least 550 off the floor before from the pictures he's posted, that feat is easily within his capabilities.

AXA has the best structure on getbig. He said himself and looking at him we all know it is true.

I guess you didn`t read the thread and catch the humor. Most haven`t yet as most are pretty dim bulbs. Yourself, included.
