It turns out that Galeniko was right (again) about the value of the mind/muscle connection.

I know. Its just that he talks about it a lot.

t nation ::)
They are odd. Their training articles are pretty good, but when they jam in the Biotest supp stuff, I get pissed.
-
T-Nation is a joke. I sometimes read it just for the LOL's. ;D
Read the amount of horseshit here:

well yeah its the most important thing in training hands down.
got to figure out how to kinda bypass the tendons and joints and put the workload on the muscle.
every single person with good physyqie has this, even if their form can apear sketchy and odd sometimes.
to get an idea how it works, well, observe a jacked and shredded person who does slow repetitions.
masters can do it very fast and seemingly sloppy, thats why seing one who works slowly is better.
stabilise,flex and then move the joints.sounds easy as hell, but is not so easy in practice.

Slow, controlled reps with a moderate weight has always been known as the best way to stimulate your muscles. Its common knowledge amoungst almost everyone. Even ego lifers. ;D

Does this mean Big Cswol can't really do 52 reps with 225?

Yes if he puts his mind into it.

This.
I only wish I knew this and put it into practice 15 years ago.

Once I started injecting hormones it became much clearer.

Yup.

Haven't read any of the responses, I'll just say its a real thing.

I like T-Nation.....it was one of the most underrated bodybuilding sites. Nowadays it's not nearly as busy but still solid.
It used to go really in depth.
Why did it become so dead anyways?

flex wheeler said when i asked about strength routines
DONT WORRY ABOUT STRENGTH
STRENGTH COMES AUTOMATICALLY
i was like "wtf is this guy forreal, we are killing ourselves to add 2,5kg to the barbell in a month for a single"
then i got on the juice and turns out strength does come automatically
Steroids love you. You are by far their biggest fan. :D

I have recently discovered the joys of the mind/muscle connection.
consequences will never be the same.

Seriously. This isn't ground breaking anything. Even in Sandow's day they knew this.

nothing new, Arnold said it 40 years ago.

Shelby Starnes.
Does he claim natty? On the private boards I see him on he's very candid about his doses. I hear mixed things about him but he has always been nice to me and seems like a pretty stand up dude.
In regards to the mind-muscle connection, I didn't think there were any serious bodybuilders that didn't think this was important. Drugs are obviously the most important. And when it comes to the gym, as long as you have a good mind-muscle connection then you're probably providing the right stimulus to grow because you're working with a challenging weight and appreciate quality time under tension. High reps, low reps, whatever. You'll grow doing anything if you're lifting properly.
Half the people in the gym move weights around, but they're not really lifting properly at all. All the people with good physiques know what to do, even if they can't articulate what it is that they're doing. Doesn't take rocket appliances to make a muscle. ;D
-
Its difficult to get a good mind-muscle connection without steroids....so for you hapless naturals wondering why you can't seem to get anything going in that regard, mystery solved.
Weed also takes MMC through the roof, for those who indulge
-
Being on a good cycle especially with orals is the best. When you get unbelievably pumped you feel like an animal and it really changes the dynamic. When you have an experience like that it's long lasting. Even if you don't juice again, I feel that you'd learn a lot from a badass cycle like that.
And yeah, weed helps too. I don't like working out without a quick puff because nothing compares.

whats weird is,the leaner one gets the better this connection works.
when shredded its crazy intense.
no idea why,but it is.
for example back, when its floded with water, you know, a wet 7% or so, cant feel shit.
when all the way shredded, can flex and feel every fibre.
agree for naturals and newcomers,its mch harder to learn muscle mind connection.bc theres only a mind, but no muscle.

Fat don't flex, my man! That's what Wes always says and it couldn't be more accurate.
You're very right about the epic leans. I never have such crazy workouts as I do when I'm peeled. I think it's both physical and mental. Probably helps to get you in the zone too when you're dieted balls deep and already wired. It feels like I'm on another plane of existence when I'm shredded, fasted, just puffed and have a killer pump going on. Nothing compares. 8)

yes nothing compares, im shredded like hell again did arms today, easy pumping biceps on cables, the damn biceps looked like they would jump through the skin into my face.
a fitness chick walked by, stopped and observed a whole set, staring at the arms.not just the veins popped throught the skin,hell no, the muscle fibres were all there.epic leans.

Not going to lie, I love these boards a lot of the times simply for the stupid crap people say.
