That's about $40 a day, if you ran it cheaply. The real feat as mentioned, is keeping it all down. I doubt anyone has really done it day in, day out. These types of things usually wind up zig zagged. You eat 12,000 one day, feel like crap the next and eat 1000 - 1500, then the day after you eat normally, then you gear up to do it again.

Waking up twice in the middle of the night to consume food is ridiculous.  I don't believe a word of this shit.  If he ate this much, he couldn't have trained because he would be sitting on the toilet all day.

And what is the "white packet" of MetRx all about?  Were there different colors?

Yes Met-RX had a white packet first then later introduced a black packet.  The black I believe had a little higher protein content and was more expensive.  Since Dave was sponsored by Met-RX they probably just gave him a boat load of white packets for free.

Well Dave said he was sponsored by Metrx so that product was free, the solid food meals, eggs, oats, chicken, rice, and McDonald's are pretty cheap. Funny how he was saying he never missed a meal and often had trouble keeping the shakes that included the eggs down. He said if he threw up he would make another shake and try again, similar to what drinkers call "puking and rallying ."

Dave, in the late nineties, was gigantic. An absolute freak.

I attended with him a meeting in Vegas around this era, and, in shorts and a tank top, the guy was ridiculous. He was about 315-odd pounds and VERY lean.

Soon after, as we know, his body began to rebel.

Don't you think he would ecstatic if he only needed to eat lets say 8000 calories to get to his goal? What would be the motivation to admit to eating this? Sabotage his fellow competitors? Have you seen Juan Murrells carb up video he has on his YouTube? He documented his 3 day carb up, its insane what he ate and he still came in flat, some guys have crazy metabolisms.

292 grams of mostly saturated fats per day combined with insulin resistance promoting HGH

Palumboism is very obviously related to metabolic syndrome. Just check out the symptoms and diagnostics and compare, especially visceral fat buildup and atrophy of muscle from insulin resistance. These guys are basically obese people who use drugs to change their body composition for as long as they can. Intramyocellular fats build up and cause progressively worsening IR until not only do their results from drugs and hard training start to peter out, but eventually even start to turn in the opposite direction and now all their efforts are only to poorly stem the progression of atrophy

I have no reason to doubt it. If you have the money, the time and this is what you do basically for a living, this is part of your job. Not only that, the more muscle you carry the more efficient your metabolism runs. Add in the drugs, fat burners and training,it’s entirely possible.

Though this would probably only result from abuse of HGH, not lower amounts?

https://academic.oup.com/jcem/article/88/4/1455/2845123

"n conclusion, replacement therapy with a low-dose GH in GH-deficient adult subjects is associated with a sustained deterioration of glucose metabolism as a consequence of the lipolytic effect of GH, resulting in enhanced oxidation of lipid substrates. Also, a shift toward more insulin-resistant type II X fibers is seen in muscle. Glucose metabolism should be carefully monitored during long-term GH replacement therapy."

that study was done with therapeutic dosages and individuals who were actually deficient in GH.

http://diabetes.diabetesjournals.org/content/50/8/1891


this one goes into the mechanisms as to how chronic GH exposure induces IR in the cells


I suspect, but can not demonstrate, that pharma has pulled a fast one on people again like they did with women and the estrogen-progestin therapies which ultimately lead to skyrocketing breast cancer rates. The fast one in this case, my belief is that HGH drugs being sold are fundamentally different to the actual growth hormone secreted in healthy youths. However, a simpler explanation might be that the method of administration results in synthetic GH administration behaving an in aberrant manner - having high activity in areas its not usually meant to. Again, this is only my suspicion, I cannot demonstrate this. But there has to be a reason naturally high GH production in youths doesn't result in worsening metabolic condition, but synthetic GH administration demonstrably does in adults.

That's interesting information, thanks.

What is your view on a HGH secretagogue?  Such as MK-677/Nutrobol which increases HGH pulses and increases the bodies natural production of HGH instead of being synthetic.

I'm not sure honestly. my first thought is a lot of what people report could very well be placebo. my second thought is they are probably safer and more closely mimick endogenous GH production, but then, are they even of any benefit to people who aren't GH deficient? which is probably the exact opposite of 100% of guys buying this stuff for physique related purpose, who undoubtedly have absolutely normal levels of GH.

theres not a lot of good (read: not funded by the same company trying to get its novel drug onto market  ;D ) data on stuff like MK-677 yet. Time will tell. I'd sooner use that stuff than HGH however.
