Post by: no one on May 02, 2010, 01:24:10 AM

I honestly don't understand what's so hard to believe about the scientifically proven fact that what determines body composition (nutrition wise) are calories and a certain amount of protein. These concepts are common knowledge among nutritionists who know what they're talking about.

Sure they can, it's impossible not to get ripped when you reduce calories, eat enough protein, and workout.
It may be inconvenient for some people, but so is eating 6 "clean" meals a day for others.

A nutritionist wouldn't discount the micronutrients or beneficial fats in so called clean food, or endorse the trans, sat fats, or nutritionally void profile of things like fast food.  That's my principal objection to Adam's junk food diet.  Some foods are healthier than other foods and he's supporting the wrong ones.  Unless he has amended his Adonis Diet yet again.

Second objection is just personal preference.  I'd rather eat a high volume of cal sparse foods than a low volume of cal dense food.  It's almost impossible to overeat when you're eating tons of veggies, but who's really going to throw out half a Big Mac, time after time, when their stomach is far from full and they're in cal debt?  Someone with greater willpower than mine.

Of course cal debt is required for fat loss.  He just makes awful food choices.

Additional restrictions may be applied for optimal health of course, although bro-science is just as prevalent there.

Exactly, it's a matter of convenience. Different for everyone. I e.g. can stick to a diet of one or two big meals of whatever I like much better than the 6 meals a day "clean" diet.

Noone is advertising extremes anyway. Just because you can get ripped on Big Macs alone doesn't mean you will only eat Big Macs, for several reasons.

Ya I like the frequent small feedings.  Keeps me from craving and stops my inner ogre from appearing.  Beans and veggies are a big standby for me.

It's going into winter here now tho and I'm eating more or less recklessly.  Home cooked stuff mostly except for an occasional dinner out.  But this is it.  This is the winter I stop being embarrassed about my fucking lifts!

Post by: doozejooze on May 10, 2010, 08:55:04 PM
A calorie is a calorie in the sense that an inch is an inch and so on, but the caloric yield from foods can differ. 4 kcal per gram of carbs for example is an average. Take Dextrose for example, it actually yield 3.4 kcal per gram.. not a big difference from 4 yet if your in a hospital etting over time, it could. As far as foods go, a calorie is a measure of the potential heat or energy that the food contains but their are a variety of factors that determine whether the 'calories' will be made available for energy production or fat storage. Eat less, workout, but don't eat crap.

i think the whole problem with the calorie is a calorie debate is not if it works- a calorie deficit will produce weight loss- but what kind of 'physique' someone who grazes on junk food eating a total of say 1700 calories will have as compared to the physique of someone consuming an ideal macronutrient ratio of proteins/carbs/fat with enough protein to illicit an anabolic state conducive to hypertrophy eating the same amount of calories as the grazer.

does a calorie deficit produce weight loss? absolutely.

will you have abs, 14 inch arms and look like you spend more time doing pilates than lifting weight? absolutely.

wavelength and anyone else who subscribes to this 'theory'- show me one pic, just one pic of someone who is say a true sub 5- 6% and weighs over say 200 pounds and follows your principles- if it helps you he can be juiced out his ass on  2+g of test a week and GH too... you can't- do you know why- your diet has no anabolic environment. yeah, you'll be lean, and you'll look like a figure skater. congrats on that.

 But that's how most fitness trends start. So maybe he'll be successful. There's a huge demand for bullshit in the fitness and bodybuilding industry.

I was talking about my last diet, which was 2009, where I gained muscle mass on the cut.

The diet before (in 2008) was the first where I tried the simple approach and I was still experimenting. Before that I tried just about any method out there.

would an all gatorade diet meet basic essential amino acid and essential fatty acid requirements? no. does wavelength's/ta's diet require you to meet those needs? yes.

sorry buddy...

So they eat some form of protein but aren't sure what the form is.  I guess they figure if they eat partial proteins at different times throughout the day that by the time they go to sleep that they would magically for complete proteins for digestion.

By the way eating a low amount of calories doesn't mean you'd get ripped.  Just look at starving africans with the bloated bellies.

sounds like your confused as to what wavelength's diet is all about. why dont you look it up. he set up requirements that all ESSENTIAL amino acids and fatty acid requirements owuld be met.

that leaves zero room for error.  ;)

How to lose fat, and not muscle
the fool proof guide


-eat enough essential amino acids to sustain lean body mass, and have a caloric defecit.

  a)it doesnt matter where the calories come from (besides those that must come from protein in order to meet the essential needs.

  b)health and body composition are two different things.

LOL, what exactly am I lying about?
I was talking about my last diet, which was 2009, where I gained muscle mass on the cut.

The diet before (in 2008) was the first where I tried the simple approach and I was still experimenting. Before that I tried just about any method out there.
So in 2008 you were following the Adonis principles ,counting calories, eating burgers ,icecream ,wine, cookies ..................and you lost a lot of muscles.
What did you do different in 2009 ?

sure you can! you could diet on whey protein only. just a few scoops per day is all you would need. oud get ripped in no time!!! id just advise you to eat some vegetables along with it, and also take some fish oil...   the vegetables will help keep your body healthy and balance the PH of the whey... the fish oil to meet essential fatty acid requirements.

I can't remember anymore why I lost (or thought I lost) muscle mass in 2008. I have to admit that I don't remember that post at all. Maybe my rate of weight loss was too high in the beginning.

But I know I gained strength on my last cut which was very slow. I don't claim that the principles work better than any other BB diet, since any other BB diet follows them anyway.

Now we're getting down to it.  Not sure I can even concede this to Team Physics.  With the exception of drug users, healthy people generally look healthy and unhealthy people generally look unhealthy.  Of course there are exceptions but that's the rule.

And even if you could look great but be unhealthy, who would choose to?  Why not look great and be healthy at the same time?

i dont have too much time to give you an indepth reply. but you set up that diet because you thought whey at the beginning of the day would mean that you wouldnt have any protein in your body all day long, except for a brief period when you have way too much protein.

this is a false idea based on a false idea of protein digestions.

look up whey protein digestion rate. its about 10 grams per hour, slowly increasing over time. your 250gf whey protein shake should take about 25 hours to fully digets...  ;)

Countless studies have shown Multivitamins to be ineffective and potentially harmful, especially when ingested daily.  Plus, there is no point in taking any when your food choices are varied as mine are.

Your typical moron bodybuilding approach is at times lacking as food choices are limited, which in turn limits certain vitamins and minerals.

Mmm, the approach to contest dieting hasn't changed all that much in the last 30 years. Still macro controlled no matter what the calories come out to. If you argue that competitors are are taking more carbs than before then fine, just consider WHY the are taking in more carbs.

It's a combination of both, when I used to train bodybuilders I never counted calories, only macros, what ever the calorie count, I never worried about it. People are eating what they want, on a cheat day, but I promise not as a regular part of a contest prep. The use of cutting compounds in addition to doing more cardio than weight training make a HUGE difference. Bottom line, dieting for a show is difficult if you're doing it the right way.

However there are upper level competitors that start loading on insulin and of course carbs beginning about 4-5 days out from a show with sometimes taking in up to 1000 or more grms leading up to the show (the "GH" gut is not "GH", it's carb loading) Those are not counted by calories but rather by macros.

Isn't "counting macros" virtually the same as counting calories, since we all know the # of calories per macronutrient and surely when considering macros for sustained fat loss over weeks the level of macros chosen would not add up to more total calories than are being burned by the weights and cardio recommended during that time?

Could careless about calorie count.

Doesn't matter if you cared about it or not, guaranteed the total calories your clients were eating are less than what they were burning.  I mean you wouldn't recommend high proteini, high carbs and high fat right?  It would be high protein, low carb, moderate fat...high protein, medium carb, low fat...etc...increase one macro and decrease another...but in the end total calories were less than what was being burned right?

so everyone agrees that you need to ingest less calories than you burn...and counting calories is one way of getting comfort that you are indeed ingesting less calories than you're burning....so why all the bickering?

Because some people on here think a 300 calorie donut is the same as 300 calories of fish or chicken or red meat or broccoli, etc, etc. No, you do not have to be calorie deficit, I get lean and stay big on 2500-3000 calories of meat and veggies, I cannot get lean and retain size on 3000 calories of ice cream, cupcakes and shit even if I were to take in enough protein. No, calories count is not the same as counting macros.

Except for maybe wavelength (I think) not one person that I can think of has ever even stepped on a bodybuilding stage yet is backing something that is totally unfounded in relation to bodybuilding. Tbombz, never competed or trained anyone to compete, TA, never competed, Wavelength, not sure if he did or not. Even if they did, I don't think they would even admit they used this type of farce for diet.

TA shows pics of himself when he was in decent shape but when asked how much he weighs it's something like 156lbs at 5'11 (or something like that) sorry dude, those arn't anywhere near bodybuilding stats in a real contest.

Here's a guy I prepped for shows recently. He ate plenty of junk on his diet while losing fat and weight. We just kept track of macros and if he wanted to eat bread or milk or fruit or even candy for his carbs he did so. Many times we ate at McDonald's after training. He just had 3 burgers with only one set of buns or whatever. :D Sure, he could've been plenty leaner but that is mostly a function of reducing energy intake further (and suffering more, and you'll suffer even with junk when you're not eating much). It's easier for many to track macros extremely accurately with "clean foods" but you can get ripped eating some so-called junk. And no, you don't need any crazy shit like DNP for it to work.

Take a look at this article by Milos Sarcev. Although Milos would most likely take exception to many things wavelength or TA or Tbombz or myself say here, IMO he basically agrees with many things as well. And please don't say it's the insulin that's keeping all these athletes lean (couple of old-school guys mentioned as well). :D

Quote
Q: Last October I attended Dutch Grand Prix and had a chance to talk to many of my
bodybuilding heroes. Interestingly, once I started asking them several questions I have
realized that all of them train and diet differently. When I continued with specific
questions about contest preparation, I learned that some of the great champions (like
Dorian, Ronnie and Dennis James) count their calories and choose only several
different foods ( chicken, steak, egg whites, oatmeal, potatoes and vegetables),
while others (like Dexter Jackson, Cormier and supposedly Flex and Shawn) don’t.
What is your approach?


A: As you just noticed it is possible to use many different methods of training and dieting
and accomplish outstanding results. You mentioned the names of probably the very best
bodybuilders in the last decade and as you realized they all have different beliefs about th
contest preparation. I am actually very close to some of them, and I am very familiar with
their programs. My friend Dennis, for example, is so precise that he would not miss any
of his meals for even a minute. Does he count calories? He measures everything he eats
and he would not use a single gram (of either protein, carbohydrates or fat) more or less
than what was planned. Here is example of his exact diet for the Mr. Olympia
competition (starting 16 weeks out):

4:30 AM protein shake (mixed proteins) total of 60 grams of protein, no carbs
5:30 AM 1 HOUR CARDIO
7:30 AM 150 grams of Oatmeal (80 grams of carbs), 15 egg whites (60 grams of protein)
10 AM    Training
11 AM    Postworkout drink (60 grams of protein, 150 grams of simple carbohydrates)

12:30 PM 300 grams of rice (120 grams of carbs), 300 g of Chicken breast (70g protein)
3 PM        300 grams of rice (120 g of carbs), 300 g of Lean Steak (60 g of protein)
5 PM        300 grams of rice (120 g of carbs), 300 g of Chicken breast (70 g of protein)
6 PM     Training
7:30 PM   Postworkout drink ( 60 g protein, 150 g simple carbs)
9:30 PM   300 grams of steak (60 g protein), 250 g mixed vegetables ( 30 g of carbs)
Midnight -  Protein shake ( 60 g of protein).

Exciting, is in it? I would go crazy on this kind of diet, but Dennis actually enjoyed it!
If anyone can believe this – he complained that he was constantly hungry?!?
Dennis is just one of my fellow competitors/friends that I design diet for. What I usually
do is estimate their energy intake/expenditure and than according to amount of time they
have until the contest – design diet that would get them in contest shape couple of weeks
before they have to step on the stage. Of course idea is to preserve as much muscle mass
while efficiently loosing body fat. If their weight/ body fat does not drop as planned I
immediately make necessary changes. I would give the daily allowance for amount of
protein/carbs/fat without really limiting the choices. Many of my “clients” usually get
confused when I tell them that I would allow them to choose what they WANT to eat.

Their response is – they thought that only thing they should be eating would be (like you
said) – chicken, fish, steak, egg whites, potato, rice, oatmeal and vegetables!
At that point I would give them one of my yearly journals (I kept precise diet journals
since 1987 with times and amounts of food I was eating for more than 70 shows that
I have entered). Only thing that was constant on those pages was total amount of calories,
protein/carbs and fat, but food choices were different just about every day!

They could not believe that I would eat pancakes, waffles, bread, diary products, nuts,
different oils (olive, safflower, flax…), fruits or even gourmet meals ( you name it I had
it, in low fat version of that meal), just weeks before the show!?
My question to them (and all of you that might be surprised) is why not?
I would allow myself to eat 500 grams of Protein, 500 grams of Carbohydrates and 60
grams of fat, which is total of about 4500 calories.
So as long as I stay in those margins I would allow myself to enjoy whatever food I like
the most. If I estimate that my energy expenditure is more than 4600 calories daily why
would I be afraid of eating pancakes/waffles or whatever else? My body is going to use
those carbohydrates as energy just like it would from rice or potatoes.
Our body has its
physiological and metabolic needs for abundance of nutrients loaded with good calories.
Competitive bodybuilders have tremendous amount of muscle mass (muscle is very
metabolically active tissue that consumes a lot of energy for its existence) and during
their pre contest period they have enormous energy demands ( 2 daily workouts with
additional aerobic activities). Good friend of mine –John Brown (multiple Mr. Universe
winner and IFBB professional) would never even attempt to eat “diet meals”. He would
eat his normal food (eggs, beacon, Cool Aid, French fries..) all the way up to a contest.
He would just make sure he burns those calories during his grueling workouts.
Thierry Pastel was the same. I saw him during European Tour eating everything he can
lay his hands on. Only, he would make sure that he has about 6 hours access to a local
gym ( to do his usual daily workout). Dexter Jackson? This guy starts dieting 6 weeks
out, never does cardio and trains only 3 times a week. I almost forgot – he can never
eat chicken or fish, so only protein he gets comes from steaks (in every meal).
Shawn Ray, one of the best and most consistent IFBB pro champions NEVER measures
his food or count calories yet, manages to always come in awesome shape.
Flex Wheeler has a reputation to constantly cheat on his diet (hamburgers and French
Fries) and Kevin Levrone use exclusively fish, vegetables and about a litter of Jack
Daniells all the way until the day of the contest (including back stage). Both champions
almost won most prestigious bodybuilding title in more than one occasion! (Please don’t
try their diet next time you decide to compete). 
So, to answer your question - I recommend counting calories and having specific ratio of
all three macro nutrients (protein, carbohydrates and fat). However, I would not advise
anyone to limit their food choices as dramatically as some of the competitors do.
Seafood pasta, cabbage rolls, beef stir fry, strawberry waffles, chocolate rice pudding or anything else could be on your next contest diet menu. Just make sure that your total
intake of particular nutrients is appropriate to what you want to accomplish.

Everyone is banking on the thermal effect of food, the timing, and the hormonal response from it in the calories do not matter debate.

This is worthless for the following reasons:

Thermal effect: This is useless because it varies from person to person. Either way, carbs are your glycogen, the body's preferred energy source. Ever try to workout in ketosis? Sucks doesn't it? Ever gain muscle in ketosis? Me either. Fat is easily digested, and protein does have a thermal effect, but so does celery.

Timing: Studies show that protein following exercise increases anabolism. How much protein is yet to be determined, however if you can only use so much, it stands to reason anything past that amount is transferred into fuel or stored as fat. The other argument, taking too much of everything at one time causes stored fat: true to a point. However taking less at other times creates the balance for fat loss.

Hormonal response: Take your blood sugar after eating 500 calories of HFCS and then again after drinking 500 calories of whey isolate. Big difference? Didn't think so. Why would the body jack up insulin so much after ingesting carbs, even if it is only a few points higher? Glycogen replenishment and storage right? Why store it? Oh yeah, so you can use it. Insulin is not the enemy, if the low carb crowd had it their way, the body would never release it or at least release very small amounts of it, thus making muscle growth impossible. Plus, it is possible to gain weight in ketosis if you try hard enough, it just won't be muscle and you will look and feel like shit.

Get enough of everything, carbs, pro, fat. Train hard but smart. Rest. Take drugs and/or supplements found OUTSIDE your diet in order to make things work better. Repeat.

Hope this helps.

well done. looks great.

i would imagine his caloric intake had a ceiling, and you state his macros insofar as carbs/ fats went were pliable- but i trust his protein intake always remained static and ample for the most part, say at least 5 out of the 7 days a week?

furthermore, there was a window instituted between the last junk meal and his fasted resting state?

i just don't want anyone who advocates the 'adonis principles', and especially those who are not as informed as some to think these results would be typical on the type of diet wavelength (not busting your balls bro - i like you) and adonis (you're a fag) advocate.

there are a lot more factors in play here in this guys prep than eat junk food = get lean.

Yes the protein was static and pretty closely measured. This guy isn't the type to weight food and count every last gram so he eyeballed the rest for the most part. Started out at approximately 350-400 grams of protein and about 300 grams of carbs. If on some day he ate protein which came from a pretty fatty source, say McDonald's burger meat or whole eggs, he held back on the carbs a bit so the calorie intake would be the same as if he ate protein from lean sources. If he wanted some candy after training instead of rice he chose candies made with glucose instead of candy with lots of fat and sucrose etc. So you can throw in some "junk" if the macros fit your plan. It's not like he ate Big Macs with fries and dip plus a coke every day. I guess you could work in whole meals at a burger joint but it's not going to work that well for someone who doesn't count and measure everything extremely closely.

Like I said, he isn't shredded and if he wants to get extremely lean he'll have to become a bit more anal about the food measuring as well as simply suffer more. Kind of hard for me to tell someone else that he needs to cut back further and increase cardio more though. Feel like an asshole since I'm not the one doing it. Heard, "I'm doing my best, I'm dying here man" many times. :D

Is he using GH ? T3 would be in there somewhere Id imagine to yes ?

You know I'd love to discuss this but it's not my place to disclose someone else's sensitive info. :-X :D

How much you weigh here?  And why do you look so different.  Besides the steroids was it maybe you were eating shitty.  And then you had to start dieting to get lean.  And now you are eating shitty again and you look like these photos and that is why you haven't posted a photo.  The only thing you do is cut and paste and type what you want.  I am pretty sure most people can figure out you don't actually eat the way you are putting in your so-called log book.  Post daily videos of you eating the shit you say you eat.  Post a photo taken today.  Why can't you ever back up what you say.  That is all you have to do.

Post by: wavelength on May 12, 2010, 04:27:10 AM
Mmm, the approach to contest dieting hasn't changed all that much in the last 30 years. Still macro controlled no matter what the calories come out to. If you argue that competitors are are taking more carbs than before then fine, just consider WHY the are taking in more carbs.

I was only talking about contest prep until a week or so before a show. And I have no experience with AS, GH, etc, so I don't know how things change when juiced. But for a nattie, everything other than a certain intake of protein can be adjusted to make the diet as convenient as possible. At least I don't know any studies that would suggest an effect on body composition as long as target weight is reached (rate of weight loss is maintained). Scientifically oriented nutritionists like e.g. Alan Aragon agree BTW.

Except for maybe wavelength (I think) not one person that I can think of has ever even stepped on a bodybuilding stage yet is backing something that is totally unfounded in relation to bodybuilding. Tbombz, never competed or trained anyone to compete, TA, never competed, Wavelength, not sure if he did or not.

There are many reasons why a certain approach is taken. For a BB who has to make target weight for a show, e.g. simplifying the diet can help.

I never competed but I got into the condition in my avi eating whatever I wanted. This was 2009 and I have a thread with a complete food log of everything I ate 2009, partly with pictures. Only in the last week of the diet I applied a few more restrictions but I still drank beer and wine, ate ice cream and other desserts, etc.

But as I said, I'm a bad example because I'm prone to injuries, which hold me back and keep my total weight down.

you gained muscle during your cutting diet?

If we agree on muscle mass being related to strength, yes. Since there isn't really any good method of measuring bodyfat at home, I can't be 100% sure of course.

Joe Marino is making much sense as usual.

I hate these threads so just listen to Joe because he is correct.

Sorry Adam and Wave but I eat clean and just count macros and adjust them as needed.

Then the only problem is that there is no scientific definition of "clean" food whatsoever.
If you have one, I'm interested.

You can't be eating much weighing so little? How much are you eating? A single junk food meal would probably exceed your daily allowance. :D Much harder to eat too much with "clean foods".

I have posted what I eat and wont hijack a thread (yes shocking I know). Oh yea my saturday junk food day is good for at least 3 llb gain the next day and if drinking is involved then 5 llb gain

You must go completely wild if you are consuming 28,000 calories on top of your maintenance amount of calories in order to store 8 lbs of fat.  :o

Do you start eating as soon as you wake up?

Because some people on here think a 300 calorie donut is the same as 300 calories of fish or chicken or red meat or broccoli, etc, etc. No, you do not have to be calorie deficit, I get lean and stay big on 2500-3000 calories of meat and veggies, I cannot get lean and retain size on 3000 calories of ice cream, cupcakes and shit even if I were to take in enough protein. No, calories count is not the same as counting macros.

How this is debated is beyond me.

NOOO there is no way I eat 28,000 calories in a day, are you nuts (wait nevermind scratch that). Its gone by Monday morning. Here is what I usually have on my cheat day as an example.


Coffee, sugar free french vanilla and 3 equals
Woke up, ran for 5 miles then hit the stairclimber for 45 minutes

Big ass bowl of cinnamon toast crunch with sliced banana

snack, Celery and carrots with hummus

Lunch, Salad with chick peas and ranch dressing

Dinner, usually go out to eat and drinking michelob ultra. If I'm home, usually pasta with homemade gravy or baked ziti

Dessert, me and mini me go to Dairy Queen, I get the butterfinger blizzard but just tried the banana cream pie one (omg to yummy)

Jesus fuck all christ, THAT is NOT a "Cheat Day".

Plus you are wasting time killing yourself running 5 miles AND THEN doing 45 minutes on the Treadmill.

I say a lookie here:

Jezebelle goes to the gym maybe 2 times a week or 3 with me and does ZERO cardio and eats nearly whatever I eat and maintains 130 lbs at 5`11.  On my diet log I had half of a large Papa John`s Pizza, guess who ate the other half. :)

First off, I enjoy running and doing cardio. I don't have Jezz's genetics. Im greek and italian we're born to be chubbies IMO.
That is a cheat day for me, not in your eyes but it is for me.

I have been known to slam a whole medium dominos pizza (no cheese cuz its icky) all by myself. And if I ate like that everyday Id look like this fatty

Fair enough.  

I just wanted to point out that your genetics are more than adequate and that you really don`t have to be all sadomasochistic about diet and exercise.  (in other words you don`t have to kill yourself)  If you enjoy it, then so be it.

Allright.  You got me.  I completely apologize.  I did not know you loved to run marathons and the like.  I can understand fully about loving to run.

You don`t bitch and moan about cardio because you love it. My personal view of running is enjoyable (used to run track and long distance) despite not doing it now.

Again, sorry.

It's cool TA, I wouldn't say I love marathons (I always said I wanted to run a marathon before I was 40, and didn't run until Oct of 2008 after loosing most of my weight) but it was a pure HAPPINESS crossing that finish line. I balled like a baby after the last turn. I see mini me and my folks cheering and clapping and mini me is yelling GO MOM and on the stretch announcer says here comes runner 1869 Deanna blah blah. I lost it (women are silly)

I'm more leary now to run a marathon because I know what Im gonna feel like the next day lol

Why would you make your 5 year old seem so dumb.  there is no debating Apenis.  How come he hasn't posted his photo and I don't get why he looked like this when a calorie is a calorie and if he ate what he wanted like in this photo he is fat yet in the later photos he is lean.  He diets and does cardio.  He pretends not to and thinks that because he writes in his log he ate a pizza and hamburger we believe it.  He is so funny when it comes down to having him actually prove anything.  So far he has never proved anything he has ever said he has done.  Alot like Goodrum.  No video of 112 reps with 225, no gravity suit, no photos of him today, no proof of going to a culinary school (since he preaches all about food and cooking), and a whole lot of other shit.  The only thing he is good for (alot like Goodrum) is that reading his dribble is funny.   He is a funny guy.  Annoying but funny.  And posting pics of his sister all the time is a little creepy.

Newmom what you have done is amazing. He doesn't get the genetics thing.  I have several friends that girls who have had 2 or 3 kids and they are bikini models still.  I have a friend in Hawaii who has 2 kids is 30 years old has no stretch marks does absolutely no cardio or training and drinks beer like water.  The photo below is of her lower half.  That is after two kids no dieting no nothing.  I love it when Apenis says genetics has nothing to do with anything.  Genetics has alot to with it.  i love it when he thinks he knows more than experts.  He went to a community college and that's a fact.  Anyway, you are a success story and should be proud.  If I can get off my ass and stay unhurt hopefully I'll join you.

Then do it once your leg is better. The picture you posted, that is awesome after kids. I was what they call a thick girl before I had mini me. I kept eating and eating and got to 263 pounds at 5ft3. See she was always in shape where I never was. I wasn't obese until after mini me. But thank you for the kind words.

TA your damn right its not easy but is addicting. Doing a half marathon in 6 weeks but not training like a marathon. Ill increase miles soon daily but that is about it. Do I have mental issues regarding being a big girl again and what i eat and loving cardio YES  I DO, cannot help it but I'm woman enough to admit it lol

 Keith, what are your politics like?  I have never heard your opinion on political issues.  You aren`t a birther by chance are you?

I am a realist for whatever that means.  I come from an era where if you talk shit then you have to prove it.  Nowadays people like you and Goodrum can literally say anything they want, pretend to know things you have no idea what you are talking about because you can simply look it up on the internet and talk shit without having to prove who you are, what your background is or if you even have any experience in what you are talking about.  Everyone knows Goodrum is full of shit so he is on here just because he mentally unstable.  You on the other keep going and going even though people ask you to prove what you are saying, show some sort of proof and you do nothing but back peddle and steer off the subject.  How long has people been asking you for your photo of you today.  I have posted photos of you fat.  So what happened there?  If you can eat what you want and stay skinny why are you fat there.  You post up some food you are saying you are eating and staying lean well post some photos or do you look fat again.

Just quit talking shit and show us something.  Like Newmom says debating with you is like a 5 year old.  I have no political anything.  Maybe you should practice that too cause whatever you do doesn't work.  Post up your college degree while you are at it

Uh, when I was obese, (which was by choice, I had a goal of reclaiming a 600 lb deadlift) I was eating as much as I could with no caloric limit.  It is easier for me to deadlift with a large waist.

I made it to about 575 that year and decided it wasn`t worth it.

you've been sayin you would post a recent pic for weeks.  If you looked GOOD, you would have already jumped on this challenge by now.  the fact you've been avoiding it and backpedaling says that you either look BAD, or are trying to "get ready" to take a pick. 

LOL he has posted impressive pics, who cares if they are a year old or two weeks old?  He was preaching the same type of diet when those pics were taken as he is now.  Others don't get hounded to post updated pics every few months.

I am a realist for whatever that means.  I come from an era where if you talk shit then you have to prove it.  Nowadays people like you and Goodrum can literally say anything they want, pretend to know things you have no idea what you are talking about because you can simply look it up on the internet and talk shit without having to prove who you are, what your background is or if you even have any experience in what you are talking about.  Everyone knows Goodrum is full of shit so he is on here just because he mentally unstable.  You on the other keep going and going even though people ask you to prove what you are saying, show some sort of proof and you do nothing but back peddle and steer off the subject.  How long has people been asking you for your photo of you today.  I have posted photos of you fat.  So what happened there?  If you can eat what you want and stay skinny why are you fat there.  You post up some food you are saying you are eating and staying lean well post some photos or do you look fat again.

Just quit talking shit and show us something.  Like Newmom says debating with you is like a 5 year old.  I have no political anything.  Maybe you should practice that too cause whatever you do doesn't work.  Post up your college degree while you are at it
Also, I have dieted all the way down using the traditional bodybuilder approach and its absolutely horrible and pointless.

I ended up very weak at the end and not as ripped as per my approach.  I lose no strength whatsoever with my method.

Keep in mind Keith, I have tried each way equally and have compared and made an easy decision based on the evidence (results) as well as taking in the comparative body of evidence (peer-reviewed studies).

You on the other hand, never have seen your abs once in your life, nor have you ever reduced your caloric intake to an acceptable or healthy level.

You have always been overweight, even at your strongest, (you know the benefits of having a LARGE WAIST and how it translates to lifting poundages).

Of course your power to weight ratio was never any good, but the poundages are decent.

you drink skim milk but wont eat ice cream???   theres a huge amoiunt of ice cream on the markey that is made with skim milk.. and thats all it is. theres alot of frozen yoogurts based on skim milk too.   ice cream with zero fat, containing some whey and casien protein, and some slow glycemix carbs with added calcium....   sounds very nutritious to me!!

NO I normally don't eat ice cream. I had no idea there is ice cream made with skim milk, because I tend to stay away from the outside aisles. If I really dont miss ice cream why keep it in the house. Now chips on the other hand I dont keep in the house too tempting lol

If for nothing else, Adonis' method of "dieting" is far superior to eating 100% clean because ANYONE can follow it year round and more importantly for a lifetime. Most people don't have the desire nor willpower to eat clean for the rest of their lives. However, eating whatever you want to eat and keeping it within a certain number of calories is certainly feasible for everyone.

I want to ask a question as to what y'all think is the minimum amount of protein one must consume while on a calorie defiect fat-loss diet in order to retain lean muscle mass in regards to one's lean body mass, for example 1 gram per pound of lean bodyweight, but I fear that this will start another huge and nasty debate :> LOL P.S. I'm not sure exactly how many grams of protein per day that I was eating when I achieved 6% bodyfat, but Im absolutely sure that it was less than 1 gram of protein per pound of lean bodyweight

Of course your power to weight ratio was never any good, but the poundages are decent.  

here is the problem.  I do not come on here and brag about my abs or condition.  I never once said anywhere I was a bodybuilder.  Never.  See the difference is you go around saying you are a bodybuilder and diet expert and basically an expert in everything, yet you are NOT and expert in anything.  You talk alot of shit but never back it up with something of your own.  You cut and paste more than anyone.  Big difference see.  You talk alot but never produce.  At 300 pounds my waist was just a little over 37".  Your waist in that fat photo is bigger than mine and I weigh 40+ pounds more than you.  See you can't argue with me and get anywhere.  I have achievements and I have titles and I have proof of what I say.  You have NONE.  Again, you have NOTHING.  I don't go around bragging about my lifts or strength.  Others for the past 25 years have done that for me.  I will of course put my lifts and achievements down when appropriate though.  See your problem is you think (like Goodrum again) that the internet is some kind of "stage" that is an accomplishment.  You think if you come on here and talk about shit you don't know about and try to convince everyone you do then you have achieved something.  Like I have always said, show some proof you have done anything you have said.  you can't even post a photo of you today.  And you have been asked numerous times by many.  Where is your college degree.  Where is the video of your deadlifting 225 for 112 reps, where is your gravity suit.  DO you see the pattern here.  you talk alot of shit and can't back one thing up.  Sorry son but all your fancy talk means nothing in the REAL world.

See the problem I have is this is NOT Apenis's creation.  This is something millions of people do everyday.  He did not create this.  He takes what others are already doing and makes it sound like he came up with some new way of living.  

As a guy who was skinny as a kid, in shape and strong enough to make a living with his body and win a world title to a fat slob like I am now I have the lived it and have the experience to talk about it.  And I gotta tell you the #1 thing that makes the difference is your will-power.  I used to have it. I lost it and it is slowly coming back.  Another major thing is your age.  You guys who are under 35 or so will be in for a rude awakening when you get older.  Cause your metabolism will slow down.  I could eat anything when I was younger.  I could spend a couple hours in the gym no problem.  Well it is a little different now.  So be prepared.  you can talk all the shit you want but most of you will see what I mean.  Of course Apenis won't cause by then he'll invent (in his head) a way to cure everything worng and never have to worry about anything.

How come he hasn't posted his photo and I don't get why he looked like this when a calorie is a calorie and if he ate what he wanted like in this photo he is fat yet in the later photos he is lean.  He diets and does cardio.  He pretends not to and thinks that because he writes in his log he ate a pizza and hamburger we believe it.  He is so funny when it comes down to having him actually prove anything.  So far he has never proved anything he has ever said he has done.  Alot like Goodrum.  No video of 112 reps with 225, no gravity suit, no photos of him today, no proof of going to a culinary school (since he preaches all about food and cooking), and a whole lot of other shit.

And what is it you know better? What is the answer to my question, maybe including scientific studies to back up your opinion?

Maybe this quote of top nutritionist Alan Aragon is of interest (response to my question about my method):

Quote from: alan aragon
Do people really give you sh!t about your results because they weren't achieved with clean foods? That's funny, especially considering that people don't realize that "clean" is a subjective term. One thing to remember is that most people simply do not have a fundamental understanding of human physiology. Did you eat at a caloric deficit? Yes.  Did your protein intake and training regimen support LBM retention or at least minimize LBM loss? Yes...... I honestly don't see what's so fcking difficult for naysayers to understand about that.
At my absolute leanest, I ate a pint of hagen daaz every single night right before bed. I also did not have a car at the time, so I biked to school & work. I was running a caloric defricit, so I got lean. The people who give you sh!t are the same brotards who will spend $$$$ on completely useless supps, so we can laugh at them together.

So you just basically owned yourself this entire thread because you really don`t want to see a picture of me afterall?

Furthermore, why wouldn`t you expect to see improvement as I have kept consistent training, the same type of eating with no wild fluctuations in weight?

I will post a picture whenever I feel like it or whenever I am bored enough to do so.  I have the ability to be selective and will take full advantage of it.

It's a combination of both, when I used to train bodybuilders I never counted calories, only macros, what ever the calorie count, I never worried about it. People are eating what they want, on a cheat day, but I promise not as a regular part of a contest prep. The use of cutting compounds in addition to doing more cardio than weight training make a HUGE difference. Bottom line, dieting for a show is difficult if you're doing it the right way.

However there are upper level competitors that start loading on insulin and of course carbs beginning about 4-5 days out from a show with sometimes taking in up to 1000 or more grms leading up to the show (the "GH" gut is not "GH", it's carb loading) Those are not counted by calories but rather by macros.

I hate that statement.....when you count macros you definitely ARE counting calories.  Adams approach is the opposite....count total calories....and not worry about macros.  The whole gut thing has been debated over and over.  Sounds like it should be called "insulin gut".  NEVER have a seen a natural get that gut....even when doing things like "shit loading" before a show.  You're full of crack if you think its just the "carbs"

Because some people on here think a 300 calorie donut is the same as 300 calories of fish or chicken or red meat or broccoli, etc, etc. No, you do not have to be calorie deficit, I get lean and stay big on 2500-3000 calories of meat and veggies, I cannot get lean and retain size on 3000 calories of ice cream, cupcakes and shit even if I were to take in enough protein. No, calories count is not the same as counting macros.

To be more specific....the nutrients you get from a 300calorie doughnut is different than a 300 calorie piece of Cod.  HOWEVER....that 300 calories is 300 calories.  Its like saying a pound of lead weighs different than a pound of feathers. 

So when you say you dont count calories...then you must calculate all your macros according to lean bodyweight or something like that...right?

I am absolutely sick and tired of people with obvious fear and uncertainty putting down proven physiological facts. As humans we are essentially the same. Yes you have your variation across the range, but the ones who claim to be extreme cases who are devoid of falling into the description of being human, need to sit back and rationally grasp basic facts.
1.Even with a "slow metabolism" or in extreme cases, hypothyroidism, weight loss is still achieved through a calorie defecit.
2.There is no need to limit food self analysed as "unhealthy", merely because you link it to your overweight self in some manner. Of course ,hydrogenated oils are the exception.
3.Limiting your food stuffs can trigger allergies, your body is essentially crying out for variation.
4.Don't form the mentality that you are somehow an exception to a rule simply because you unconsciously eat too much.
5.You have a therapeutic  dose of calories, macros and micros , protein is not an exception.

I hate that statement.....when you count macros you definitely ARE counting calories.  Adams approach is the opposite....count total calories....and not worry about macros.  The whole gut thing has been debated over and over.  Sounds like it should be called "insulin gut".  NEVER have a seen a natural get that gut....even when doing things like "shit loading" before a show.  You're full of crack if you think its just the "carbs"

Quote
To be more specific....the nutrients you get from a 300calorie doughnut is different than a 300 calorie piece of Cod.  HOWEVER....that 300 calories is 300 calories.  Its like saying a pound of lead weighs different than a pound of feathers.

So when you say you dont count calories...then you must calculate all your macros according to lean bodyweight or something like that...right?

Great posts.

hahaha again you are fighting a losing battle.  but I am pretty sure you are used to that.  You don't understand I have a blast outing you and Goodrum.  You two are my fun time other than playing craps.  And I wouldn't worry about my medical.  When you can save up enough money to get a full blood work up lets compare.  I am pretty sure my total cholesterol is lower than yours, and any other number since mine are all good.  I am fat absolutely and it absolutely affects other parts of me but I think I will be okay.  You on the other hand are probably a fat slob just like the photo.  If not you are an under nourished skinny kid who pretends to be something he is not.  So either way I win.  But, hey keep it coming I love reading your meltdown (and i can't believe I wrote that)

I am not responding to this post in particular, but I wanted to know your views on diet. Mine are simple:

Eat optimal calories for muscle growth or fat loss. Supplement to make up the difference and get herbs/compounds you don't get in the diet.

My diet today, around 25-2600 calories or so, I cheat every 6th day, and today the only wildcard is an applebees house salad that I put some oil and vinegar on. I believe it was 300 calories or so.

Taco Bell, 2 chalupas and a hard taco 930c

Gaspari Myofusion shake, 2 scoops 315 calories

9 oz sirloin steak with brocolli, squash, carrot mix, house salad

1 can of okra

Maybe a bag of beef jerky that I haven't eaten yet.

Activity: Arm and shoulder workout, 7 sets for shoulders, 4 for bi and tri. Light walking for roughly 25 minutes with my daughter to and from the park. I got over 225 grams of protein, I weigh 310 right now, targeting 250.

I don't understand what is wrong with this as long as I am gaining strength and decreasing bodyfat. I simply can not do the typical bo0dybuilding diet for more than a few weeks before I lose the will to live, lol. I did try it out for a month, and the results were exactly the same as my method.

If it matters, I learned to eat like this from reading Mike Mentzer's work and looking at his own food consumption when training for the Olympia.

Keith is good. He is sharp and committed in the way he posts. He hammers the gestalt of his argument and does not tolerate straw man fallacies.  Don't be fooled by his affect.

This waverunner guy is a farce. Here is why:

Any grown man who spends his days (note the plurality) uploading pictures and pictures of food to an internet message board en bloc is preoccupied with food and eating above much else. This is fine of course, it is his life. It is disingenuous, however, for him to intimate that he is adequately satiated and completely pleased with his diet, as he does ubiquitously, when showing him a picture of sweetbreads, would light up his PET like a Griswald Christmas tree. Comrade, face it, you are starving. All you can think about is food. It is your porn. It is your fortune. It is your religion. This is abnormal for someone who proselytizes utter contentment with their dieting lifestyle. It is expected, however, in a setting of chronic hunger. Stop bullshitting. You are not small because you are prone to injuries or whatever surreptitious excuse you are using. You can't gain size, whatever that means, because you have a phobia. Give it a rest. There are impressionable kids on these forums.

Newmom that picture of you crossing the finishing line...well what can I say....very moving; thank you for sharing.

Oh and waveshaddow, don't take it personal. I just can't stand bullshit. Six ain't nine; you know what I mean? Besides, I am much more pathetic than you, I suppose. The way you crave 3squares/qd, I crave happiness. You're hungry and I'm miserable. I'm also running late.

You make a lot of assumptions, who says I wasn't a lot bigger in the past?

Of course I can gain size, easily. However, when I'm injured, I choose not to because most of it would be fat since I can't train with full intensity resp. increasing resistance.

What are your diet beliefs if not calorie control and getting all of the required nutrients for your goal?

Before your tragedies occurred, you seemed very lean per your genetics. What did you do during that time? I know you said you were younger and could eat anything, but surley you followed some structure, otherwise you would agree with me because you gained muscle obviously without following the dogma.

I know you said you were younger and could eat anything, but surley you followed some structure, otherwise you would agree with me because you gained muscle obviously without following the dogma.

I did not follow a structured diet ever even when I competed.  I was never a fast food guy.  I would maybe have something from Taco Bell or Burger King.  I loved El Pollo Chicken.  I always ate a lot of chicken and fish.  Back when I was younger I really didn't eat alot of candy or sweets.  I eat more of that now.  As for gaining muscle thsat was from lifting heavy all the time and ingesting enough protein.  But never did I count anything.  I was a super heavyweight so that stuff wasn't a concern. Before I got hurt I was probably eating as clean as I ever did.  Protein shakes, maybe 2 pounds a day of fish, some chicken and even baked potatoes and pork.  But then I was rising my bike about 28 miles a day and going to the gym twice a day at least 4 days a week plus throwing the discus and walking with a 120 tire behind me.  I am the last persopn to preach or talk about dieting.  It is way to hard to do.

James28- Goodrum is NOT a bodybuilder.  Even the owner of this website doesn't believe so.  All he is a guy who enters contests to see other guys up close.  he does not train or diet or do anything that a bodybuilder does.  He is a pretender.  he pretends to know everything and lies through his teeth about everything.  He is alot like Apenis but maybe not as bad because everyone knows Goodrum is a little retarded or mentally unstable so we put up with him.

OneMoreRep-  Apenis had been asked for the past several weeks to post a pic but he wont.  When and if he does it is because he has dieted so much and taken so much shit to lose the weight since people have been bugging him.  He posts fake and made up food he says he eats and even cooks.  He is alot like Goodrum but worse because............. just because ;D

I did not follow a structured diet ever even when I competed.  I was never a fast food guy.  I would maybe have something from Taco Bell or Burger King.  I loved El Pollo Chicken.  I always ate a lot of chicken and fish.  Back when I was younger I really didn't eat alot of candy or sweets.  I eat more of that now.  As for gaining muscle thsat was from lifting heavy all the time and ingesting enough protein.  But never did I count anything.  I was a super heavyweight so that stuff wasn't a concern. Before I got hurt I was probably eating as clean as I ever did.  Protein shakes, maybe 2 pounds a day of fish, some chicken and even baked potatoes and pork.  But then I was rising my bike about 28 miles a day and going to the gym twice a day at least 4 days a week plus throwing the discus and walking with a 120 tire behind me.  I am the last persopn to preach or talk about dieting.  It is way to hard to do.


Thanks for that. I was doing sort of the same thing about 1.5 years ago, but I just ate low carb yet ingested as much protein and fat as I wanted. I got like 100 or so trace carbs a day, and I drank shitloads of hard liquor and Michelob Ultra. I went from a 42 to a 36 pant like that at 260. I was a 34 pant and 229 when I saw Goodrum last, so who knows? I do know I am losing weight, looking harder/leaner, and enjoying food now as opposed to the low carb approach.

My diet for today, 1950 calories not counting some lettuce and no calorie dressing:

2 protein bars-380c
1 big 100 bar-410c
Gaspari Size On-180c
1 roast beef sandwhich with cheese-460c
1 special K bar-90 c
1 cup skim milk-90c
1 mini bag of smart balance popcorn-135 calories or so
2 large lettuce only portions, negative calories

I am trying to get 25% protein, 60% carbs, 15% fats. Not too bad or filled with 'junk', however I wanted a big mac instead of the big 100 bar.

Never had Fish Florintine but it was on the menu at one of the finer Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco, but most in  the pre-wedding party ordered the Bouillabaisse.

While Barbara is searching for her Flortine recipe ...... I'll submit the following

A family uncle who supplies fish to the Wharf on a regular basis said that it was the best Bouillabaisse he's ever had and asked the chef for the recipe. The chef told the group that it was the Lagasse recipe and prepared as shown below.

Too complicated for me though who has difficulty preparing a hard boiled egg.

TA may want to add or subtract from it though and I'm sure it will taste just as good.

Ingredients for the broth:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup onion, chopped
1/2 cup celery, chopped
Salt and pepper
3 cloves garlic
1 bay leaf
8 peppercorns
2 sprigs thyme
1 pound fish bones
Water to cover
1 cup white wine
For the Bouillabaisse:
Pinch of Saffron
1 cup leeks, julienned
3 cups tomatoes, peeled, seeded, and chopped
Juice and zest of one orange
1 cup fennel, julienned
2 tablespoons garlic, chopped
2 tablespoons parsley, finely chopped
Salt and pepper
2 pounds assorted small whole fresh fish from the Mediterranean such as whiting, squid, sea bass, scorpion fish, eel,
angler fish, cleaned and scaled
1 large lobster
1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/2 pound mussels
1/2 pound littleneck clams
Salt and pepper

Directions
For the Rouille: 1 red pepper, roasted and peeled 2 cloves garlic 1 piece of white bread torn into pieces 1 egg yolk 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard Juice of one lemon Salt and pepper 1/2 cup olive oil Garnish: 12 slices of crusty French bread For the broth: In a large sauce pan, heat the olive oil. Add the onions and celery. Season with salt and pepper. Saute for 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the bay leaves, peppercorns, and thyme. Add the fish bones, water and wine. Bring the liquid to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Cook for 30 minutes. Remove from the heat and strain.

For the Bouillabaisse: Place the stock on the heat and bring to a simmer. Add the saffron, leeks, tomatoes, orange juice, orange zest, fennel, garlic, and parsley. Season with salt and pepper. Add the fish and lobsters. Cook for 8 minutes. Add the shrimp, mussels, and clams. Cook for 6 minutes, or until the shells have opened. Discard any shells that do not open. Season with salt and pepper.

For the Rouille: In a food processor, combine all the ingredients, except for the oil. Puree until smooth. With the machine running, slowly add the olive oil. Season the emulsion with salt and pepper.

To assemble: Remove the seafood from the pan and place on a large platter. Pour the stock into a serving bowl. Serve the Rouille and crusty bread on the side of the Bouillabaisse. For individual servings, arrange the seafood in a shallow dish. Ladle the stock over the seafood. Drizzle the Rouille over the seafood and serve with the crusty bread.

Here's the Fish Florentine as found on the net and used here at the house when family shows up and I'm elsewhere. TA may want to add or subtract from it.

SEAFOOD FLORENTINE BAKE   

2 lbs. fish fillets (flounder, haddock, pollock)
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. onion powder
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 (10 3/4 to 11 oz.) can condensed cream of shrimp or cheddar cheese soup
1 (10 oz.) pkg. frozen chopped spinach, thawed and well drained
2 c. Bisquick
1/3 c. grated Parmesan cheese
1 c. milk
2 eggs

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Arrange fish fillets in a greased 13x9x2 inch baking dish and sprinkle with the salt, onion powder and pepper. Spoon soup over fillets; top with spinach.
Beat remaining ingredients with wire whisk or hand beater about 1 minute or until almost smooth. Pour over spinach. Bake uncovered about 40 minutes or until top is golden brown. Let stand 10 minutes before serving. Makes 8 servings.

I really do not understand why anyone would argue with this. Skip Hill has proven this already with numerous clients a few months back. Every single one of them lost fat, got in great shape, and got stronger in the gym, while eating shitty food. A calorie is a calorie, regardless of whether you eat 25g carbs of skittles or 25g carbs of sweet potatoes. Obviously you need to know your macros first, but you can and will get shredded eating shitty foods, because your body doesn't know the difference. Yes, it's much healthier to eat good quality nutrient dense foods, and it's better for your blood glucose levels, but in terms of fat loss, it does't matter. I've done this myself with success, so if anyone doesn't believe it, just try it. Find out for yourself.

first off i'd like to give credit to the mighty buselmo for coming forward and dispelling any current beliefs and notions about what it takes to get in shape. the guy speaks the truth and its refreshing to say the least.

heres the deal- i have been for the better part of my training/competing life a 'strict dieting'; guy. this means all ratios and calories were measured. nothing given to chance. steroids were used but not relied upon to give me the size and conditioning i wanted.

i never in all those years achieved what i thought of as my full potential competitively, and that played a big part in why i quit- i just figured i didnt have the genetics (the other part being i honestly hated being onstage).

over the past 2 years i started gh. my shit is good. as is any anabolics i have used. one thing i have been very lucky with is getting good gear. i built a good bit of quality in this time- no not size, quality- i didnt want nor do i now want to get bigger. but for the past two years i have had an almost impossible time getting that last little bit of stubborn fat off no matter how hard i dieted. by stubborn fat i mean the last 2% to get me shredded looking to the point you dont need a diuretic to see the quality of the muscle or conditioning- i have always thought that if you were lean enough you wont need a diuretic to look good and i still feel this way, unless your competing, much different story as those stage light as very unforgiving- anyone can look good in their living room.

so, i have sat sat with unhappily with a bf level for the last 2 years i couldnt shake off which was frustratiing to say the least as every time i got lean, i got way to stringy and started to lose too much lean. it was a tricky balancing act for sure.

fast forward to that last two weeks- and this is where buselmo's truths come into play. i went to south american on vacation. i took with me enough eq, winstrol and my prop for 3 weeks cause i am juice monkey at heart and this is what we do- we never stray far from the syringe kids- if you want to be big you gotta learn this rule.- no i wont tell you how i transported it- pm me if you want to know. in that amount of time i trained twice. two upper body workouts. i didnt count calories. i didnt count protein but i can bet it was less than 100 grams a day- for a period of 4-5 days when i was in the mountains i can assure you it was less than 50. i existed on grains, and fruits. i was climbing thru mountain passes, sometimes elevations of over 2000M in one days time- picture being on a stair climber for 6-7 hours a day.

i got back yesterday and when i looked in the mirror (cause you really dont have any idea how your body has changed till you see it in the same mirror and lighting you always are used to seeing it) i had lost that final 2%. i was bigger and rounder than i have ever been. my legs/calves which i havent trained now for a month are considerably fuller from all the climbing. all on less than 100 grams of protein a day.

heres the moral of the story and guys like gh and buselmo and will grant etc etc will keep pounding away at it till you all get it- THIS IS A DRUG DRIVEN PAST TIME AND RESULTS ARE TOTALLY DEPENDANT ON INTAKE AND NOTHING LESS. fuck calories. fuck protein. fuck macros. fuck gurus- take your steroids like good little boys and girls and a lot of them. eat all the carbs you need to give you whatever fuel your body will need to keep moving and working, and if you cant afford 15units of gh a day, get your lazy ass on a stair climber and grind out some long ass intense cardio sessions to get your metabolism going and burn off the baby fat. thats it. and if you can afford the gh, then fuck the stairclimber too.

why did i take the time to write this- cause for the most part i come here to bust balls and have fun. cause i know there are guys on here in the same boat as me- good physiques who have been busting their ass for years dieting and counting macros. its not necessary and it'll be hard for you to get your mind around it after decades of being fed the same ignorant bullshit about 'dieting' cause i was the same way. diet diet diet. keep the protein up. what a joke.

heres my challenge for guys who are lean but trying to get off that last 2 %- try it for two weeks. eat whatever macros you want. dont stuff yourself full- by now you should know your bodies well enough to know when you need fuel and when you dont. and give your body only enough to keep going. exist on coffee the rest of the time as a stim. eat when you are hungry- fuck the clock. do some cardio if you cant afford the gh. come back here and tell me thats you didnt lose that bf, get fuller and look better.

the mighty no one has spoken. let all who read his words be the wiser for it.

your welcome bitches

I really do not understand why anyone would argue with this. Skip Hill has proven this already with numerous clients a few months back. Every single one of them lost fat, got in great shape, and got stronger in the gym, while eating shitty food. A calorie is a calorie, regardless of whether you eat 25g carbs of skittles or 25g carbs of sweet potatoes. Obviously you need to know your macros first, but you can and will get shredded eating shitty foods, because your body doesn't know the difference. Yes, it's much healthier to eat good quality nutrient dense foods, and it's better for your blood glucose levels, but in terms of fat loss, it does't matter. I've done this myself with success, so if anyone doesn't believe it, just try it. Find out for yourself.
You don`t need to know any Macros.  Just overall calories and a minimum protein intake which you usually get by default anyways by just eating normally.

Well, that would be a bit pointless, as I am in my off season, and anyone who competes knows that staying very lean in the off season is an idiotic thing to do. That is not how you come in bigger and heavier at your next show. Next time I do this, I promise you, I will post before and afters. I will be using this method for my next prep in July. Feel free to save this post on your comp or whatever, and re-post it then(summer) and I WILL post pics, and you can clearly see that it works. I do weekly pics during my prep to assess what macros should be changed, etc, so i can do pre-diet, 8 weeks out, 4 weeks out, etc. I don't lie, I have no reason to.

Lol, i don't drink shakes, nor do i eat boiled chicken breast. I grill, bake, or pan cook mine  ;) I'm not going to argue with you, because you're right. However, i'm sure you didn't always do this ever since you first started. You don't begin in this sport knowing everything, it's impossible.

You are not all the way there yet.  You still believe in tracking Macros which is as pointless as "eating clean".  You are almost there.  Overall caloric intake and minimum nutrient requirements which you get by default via eating like a normal person anyways is all that matters.

nope.

gaydonis says you need 1 gram of protein per pound of bodyweight- in fact he ripped off what has been said for years by everyone- the same old you need x amount of protein bullshit line than added in his whole little eat what you want, but dont go over you total allowance for caloires and you'll lose weight. lol really groundbreaking stuff.

i say if you are on anabolics you dont even need a fraction of the protein everyone says you do- higher carbs, lesser protein will keep you much more when dieting, and the anabolics will preserve lean tissue.

the ugly fuck is just a troll who has nothing in life, lives in his moms house with his gf, takes pictures of old furniture and bakes pies. i'd like to give him credit for something remarkable, but even though he ripped the diet off, hes STILL wrong- just looking at his 'physique' should be proof enough of that. what a fucking clown.

Wrong on all accounts.  You are not even close to where I live.  I live in the house which was built for Francis Scott Key (author of the United States National Anthem) `s granddaughter, daughter of a North Carolina Congressmen and West Point military Engineer who served in the War of 1812.  

As far as all the Classic Cars I have owned:
I`ve owned a 1959 Cadillac Coupe Deville, 1960 Plymouth Fury Golden Commando with a rare 413 engine-Mule Car-Richard Petty`s Garage, 1967 Cadillac Deville Convertible, 1975 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible.

My dad died when I was a child and I bought all of those cars within the last 10 years myself, not to mention a Lotus Esprit Twin Turbo as well as a Mercedes S Class.


The floor alone in my house is worth more money than you will ever see in a lifetime.
I hope some of this helps.

My house is featured in several books on Historic Architecture and is on the National Register of Historic Places.  It was built by a famous architect in the Greek Revival fashion with Italianate details which is a unique blending seen in the Romantic period in the Antebellum South.  It looks very similar to Jefferson Davis`s house, Beauvoir and also the First Confederacy of the White House in Alabama.  A combination of the two if you had to put it in style perspective, but is only one of a kind as there is no other house built like it in the world.

you see speed bag, unlike you I have evolved in my thinking. learned from experience. and built a body you couldn't come within 10 years if ever achieving sunshine.

it's kind fun getting trolled my someone like you. if you looked better than me id feel picked on and emasculated.

now I know how you feel.
 
carry on, simpleton.


If you took time to research people you would have seen that I like to troll people on occasion, I have admitted it many times openly in posts.
Thats all I have ever been doing wiith you, at no point has it ever been personal.
I thought you would have twigged a while ago, never mind.
I think its best I dont carry on, I dont think the forums bandwidth can cope with your replies.

translation: im another bitch whos fallen to the mighty 'no one'

i dont take the time to 'research' anyone, sunshine. nobody here gets in my head far enough to make those kinds of demands on my time.

know your place here and you'll get along just fine. i didnt attack you until i had had enough of your bullshit. this is what you reap. you fuck with the bull, you get the horn.

lesson learned.

dismissed.

In my honest opinion, Ukjeff isnt who he claims to be. He is a sweet gimmick.

Ukjeff is an obvious moron, hence why he lives in UK.  With roids, u dont need to know what your doing as long as u do something.

I don't agree with that. Have seen guys use the exact same stuff that I have, which I know was real, and they never looked any better. There are a lot of factors.
