You should make arrangements to carry his gym bag to the contest.

he only posted it because he knows Ro is well liked and would send messages of good luck for his show and Brian seeing people posting in his thread would allow his sphincter relax so Bailey could fuck him without lube.

In real life I would never ask someone to carry my gym bag unless I was carrying someone out of a burning building, even if I was loaded with cash, a celeb etc. I cringe when I see people with servants.
Hired, he can pay me in edibles. ;D

He couldn`t care less how Ro does,in fact knowing Brian,he`s more than likely hoping Ro will lose.

You fat fucking slob. How long have you been on bodybuilding forms? Shows are held on Saturday maybe sometimes Friday night. Sometimes Sunday. It’s still Friday afternoon in Europe.
Go grab yourself a bottle of Jack and hop in your car.

Incoming. More visible here day before than onstage, too much water sucked out from dyazide (1 spread over 24 hours, Thursday night to Friday night) You can see it in the fullness missing from my pecs also, granted this pic was taken after cooling down and coming off stage after overall then going back for a groupie with the big piece of cardboard.

Great Job Row what was the show does this qualify him for something else now or was this the big one?
The worlds in Amsterdam next Sunday. Head judge and president suggested I do pro masters to have better chance of winning a few grand. I think I would need another off season and prep to be dominant in pro open.

Great job Ro......did you win a pro-card.....if so,well deserved, and long overdue.

I remember Hungarian dude Peter Molnar cleaning pro shows in PCA few years back and he claimed that he has earned one year almost $200k.Not a lot in UK or USA ,but in Hungary that helps tremendously.

Just out of curiosity, how much scale weight do you think the one Dyazide pulled off you? One tab spaced out sounds so little but apparently is enough to really deplete you.
My philosophy was to start half a tab a day on the sunday week before and then adjust over the days, perhaps even coming off it if too flat. Back in the day I remember Vince Taylor saying for optimal results you should actually come off it in the end, he though the water would come back in the muscle first, then the subcutaneous layer unlike when you start it.
Samson Dauda thought Milos almost killed him with 2 Dyazides over 3 days, went to the hospital and everything, but this isn't Lasix or Bumex or Demadex (Titus said he got into real trouble with that on the advice of Dorian).
I would do the masters class, why not, most everyone looks for the most advantageous lineup but I can see wanting to compete against the best. In the NPC, are the masters pro cards even "real" deserved pro cards but many take them to have that IFBB pro added to their IG names for business reasons. I'm sure there's a possibility you could gain IFBB status as well in the US via masters.

You could post your stack too but it invites the retards coming for you :D

Dyazide is a short acting diuretic, why would you be taking at anytime other than the night before or morning of the show, it only works for around 4 hours then stops
Aldactone yes a couple days before to keep water off
I have used both and they were a waste of time
-

Because it may take a few days to know what it does for you. For some the half a Dyazide night before seems to do almost nothing. I know many guys who said they didn't know if the Dyazide even worked at all. Taking the night before, in the morning you may be happy or unhappy with the results and there is no time to adjust and fix it. BigRo did take his two days in a row which sounds logical to me to gauge effects and adjust.
Aldactone used to be big, don't know now. Milos used it on Dennis Wolf in 2006. However it was used for like a week gor a couple of reasons. One was to increase potassium stores so when you took the Bumex the night before theoretically you wouldn't bottom out the potassium and cramp or die. It would also prevent water coming back into the subcutaneous space which obviously is dangerous, even overloading sodium might not work too well trying to rehydrate if there is trouble. That one female coach Shelby Starnes supposedly put many women on aldactone for 3 or 4 weeks before shows. Sounds crazy but it has been prescribed long term for acne treatment in women. Shelby also said to take loop diuretics if you want to look like you never trained in your whole life. bhank overdosed on Lasix, don't know if even "researched" it at all beforehand.
Just some thoughts, I don't have much experience with them. On paper I thought Dan Duchaines method sounded elegant, inject very small doses of Lasix IV or IM, starts working immediately and stops quickly. Then monitor by the mirror and by checking BP so it doesn't go too low and make you faint onstage ;D
-
the dyazide works because you start pissing after about 30 minutes, and you have control over it
they all just tend to take water out from everywhere, you end up looking flat
Its probably better to take laxatives because they draw water from the body to the bowel to help you shit
would also help if you wanted a flat stoimach and make weight

The body continues to shed water well beyond those 4 hours with dyazide.

Have you tried laxatives for competition? Not just before stage I presume :D

I only used it twice and I must have been all pissed out as it stopped around 4-5 hours

Yes, was bunged up a couple days before and hadnt shit, my stomach and lower abs fely bloated
Just took herbal Ducolax, took 4 , I think you are only supposed to have 1, takes about 4-6 hours then splat
Last about a couple hours and they completely clear you out
It says overnight relief but I wouldnt take 4 before bed, not unless you wore a diaper like Spencer

Did it have a drying effect on your look?

slightly, early morning dry , I always tend to look worse as the day goes on.

I don't think that much, I did not weigh after consumption as don't keep a scale at home, maybe 1kg going by how I feel. I know what 106kg feels like for example compared to 107/8 + but these small differences effect the physique alot.

Hands on hips MM pose looks incredible.
Enjoyable watching your methodical and scientific approach, and also lifting heavy ass weight.
Congrats.

Yes they take water from everywhere, that's the dilemma with them since the whole idea with carb loading is filling the muscle with water, and now you want to take it out ??? Vince Taylor's idea was to stop the diuretic a day or so out to allow the water to come back into the muscles, his idea was that it returned in that order unlike when you start it, then it comes from the muscle first. I don't know if there's anything to it. Seems like diuretic use has lessened a lot in recent years, few death and hospitalizations now. They do look softer nowadays, maybe partly because of that.
I'm sure laxatives are used but if used in combination with diuretics it might be a recipe for killing yourself.
I don't know if quinine is still used against cramps, but I remember 20 years ago Tom Prince saying everyone used it and was very effective. It's still sold by Chad Nicholls.

tonic water containes quinine, I know people who drink that

Yes I think it's a home remedy for cramps, don't know if there's enough quinine in there to be effective, many drinks I looked at at the grocery store don't even contain any quinine, just taste like they do. Quinine supposedly attaches to the magnesium receptor. Another theory I read was to swish something bitter like strong ginger in your mouth when cramping, something about it is supposed to relieve cramps.

Is there anybody you know that has tried Vince Taylors protocol for diuretics? Would be interesting to see whether there's any other cases of people whom see it returning to the muscle before other areas. I'm pretty clueless about diuretics and have no experience of them, but it's fascinating to hear about people's experiences with them. I put diuretics in the league of danger equivalent to DNP. The kind of stuff that's just too hardcore and belongs on the pro ranks.

back in the day if we were cramping it was a bag of crisps/chips to you Americans, something salty

What’s the fcks wrong with you being all humble on here!?!? lol
Hasn’t Brian taught you anything??? 😂
I am with you though. Even at my best show I looked like MUCHbetter the morning after. Not proud of that but it’s fckn difficult to nail it down.

Congrats iron brother.

thanks all for the support.
I will be going to Amsterdam for the Worlds this coming weekend. I will do pro masters catagory. I was told that I would have the most developed physique, just bring it in as lean and dry as possible.
Diet has been clean today, no off diet meals and it will be a low carb protocol all week and try my best not to carb up until Saturday afternoon, then just a 1/4 dyazide Sunday morning.
4 hard days of training from tomorrow starting with legs. I need to practice rounds of posing more too, its hard work under those lights.
Van asked about my gear; a couple of months ago eq and deca were in there at around 300- 450mg eq, 300 deca, I stopped those and kept going with test,tren at 300/200, then masteron was added 2-300mgs, test was dropped a month out, mast increased up to 600 couple of weeks out, tren went up to 3-400. Then for orals I started winstrol about 5 weeks out 50mg a day with some days off because of indigestion, same with superdrol 20mgs a day occasionally 40mg pre workout for a huge pump. Stopped orals a week out due to gastric irritation but took a bit of both the day before. Then fat burners T3 and clen for a good while I guess, T3 went up to 100mcg a couple of weeks out, clen 120mcg. Lowered both a few days out to regain some fullness. Arimidex went up to 1mg every day a couple of weeks out and nolva was also used every other day or so at 20mg. Thats it, no growth hormone or insulin here, no massage sessions or hyperbaric chambers, just sauna, cold water, stretching and meditation for recovery and wellness.
Yes bodybuilding is a drug sport like many other extreme sports, its not a healthy game but I remain in good health. I will try to resist blowing up straight away in off season mode but do a long health phase, for my mind too.

The kind of stuff that's just too hardcore and belongs on the pro ranks.
No I don't know anyone that tried it that way, except obviously seeing what competitors look like the days after shows with diuretics and it's not pretty because many or most go on insane binges immediately and drink gallons of water. Often the rebound edema is such that guys debate going to the hospital, it's that bad, can't fit shoes on foot etc. I told my buddy I would take just a little diuretic a day or two after the show and he did and worked well. Gaining 60lbs in a couple of days obviously could fuck with your heart and kidneys.
As far as leaving it to the pros, they don't "know" what they are doing and the coaches don't either. I mean if trouble comes they don't know what their bloods look like, for example if potassium is high or low. Take some potassium for cramping when already high and it's a heart attack. My buddy was in the US once with a pro and I got a panicked text about the pro violently cramping in the hotel room asking me what to do? I don't know what to do, all I said was call the ambulance if in doubt because the guy has family. He was fine in the end, poured salt in his mouth.
I'm writing a lot of text in my posts, apologies if irritating lol, but I thought "my" way is a little elegant. You have several days low dose use, you don't cut sodium or cut water, you can carb load hard and still be somewhat in control. Usually guys cut water and salt some time on friday and then take the diuretic so I feel it's more guesswork, what you're going to look like in the morning, whether you slept or not. But in the case of one Dyazide I don't feel it's usually dangerous because guys have so much water from the drugs so they probably should be on diuretics anyway :D
Regarding the DNP, still it's something everyone denies using but some say all the gurus sometimes use it while denying.
it. I haven't used it myself but seen it used and read a bunch about it. My only concern would be getting eye cataracts, small chance but I would kick myself if it happened. Today it's often used at only 100-200mg a day whereas back in the day they would be taking a gram and running into problems. Those who say it's easy to kill yourself with it probably don't know much about it. Yes it's easy in the sense that it's easy to take 5 caps instead of one but don't take 5 then! :D It would be attractive to me if I was a competitor, take it for a month at the start of a prep, could mean you are a couple of weeks ahead at that point just by taking one pill.

You know very well this level of use is "nothing" compared to so many others. No competitor is going to say that is a lot, not even any GH! :D I wonder why but it's not important, just feel a couple of IUs shouldn't hurt. I'm a weaker more insecure man, if I was in your shoes no way I would compete without GH, low investment, low health impact, could help noticeably. 8)

the only time I ever noticed anything from GH was when I used it and nothing else, I only used 10ius a week
If I have added it when taking someting else , NOTHING

My business partner uses it but does it daftly. Like 5iu on a Sunday and then same on a Wednesday if he remembers. I rarely see him these days in person and whenever I go there, he's ordered more of the shit and hasn't got round to finishing the first lot. Absolute waste. Terrible for consistency and then moans about his belly
I always used 1iu every 8 hours so 3 a day because of half life and blood stream consistency and it benefitted me greatly. Its perfect for early morning, afternoon lunch then night

Yeah it adds more water for sure at higher doses ("muscle") and does seem to keep guys leaner when used year round and I think it helps glute shreds :D
Interestingly there is zero effect on muscle growth when used without steroids. I mean it should help in some ways especially if older, "recovery" and so on, taking 2iu probably should triple levels or more for a middle age guy. I've barely tried it, I wonder if it's imaginary what many have said, that nails grow much faster on it, that sounds to me like a strong biological effect if real. A stripper I know was prescribed 2iu of Norditropin for a year by her gynecologist (!) and she noticed zero.

You won't see any benefits until you take 4iu or more per day. At least from a bodybuilding perspective. And you need to take it for a long time.
I took 6iu's a day for almost 2 years straight and it changed the way i looked completely, and after not taking it for over 10 years i still have a different look to my delts and biceps. It fills you out in a 3D way. I can look at pictures from that time period and see how much my body changed in just 6 months.
It gets faked a lot but if you take real generic GH it is a game changer. Real pharma GH is even better, but not by much these days. I was lucky and got a mix of pharma and good generic GH when i used it. I think many people get crap GH and that is really a shame. I was paying $5-6 per iu for Sero back in the day, and i had a doc friend who gave me free samples he got as an Endo.
Plus, at 6iu+ you can eat just about anything you want and not gain much fat at all.
It's remarkable.

Congrats and good luck at the worlds, also good for you for keeping it real with your dosages and working with your genetics. So many people in this sport kill themselves with way too many mgs and Ius to try and compensate for their lack of them. You look to have the right bodybuilding to life balance, trophies and pro cards aren't worth dying young for.

There is a new interview I saw with the Janoshik fella, the scientist who tests gh, peptides and steroids in the Czech republic all the UGs use. He is used for quality control by governments, real drug manufacturers who want outside testing of their products so you know he's legit. He said he tests 2000 glp-1 products alone each month, he's so busy he doesn't actually run the machines himself at all just oversees the lab. Anyway he comments on "generic" gh and says most of it EASILY qualified as "pharma" quality. For example, pharma standard requires a 96% pure product and most generic is at least 97-98% pure and has low dimer count. So this expert says it's a myth that on one side you have pharma and on the other side you have this generic that supposedly isn't the same thing. But the idea persists that nothing voming out of China is as good as "pharma" also forgetting China makes labeled pharma GH which is used in medicine in China, and also can be found on the black market like Jintropin. Everyone thought Jintropin was inferior "generic quality." The US government didn't, US pharma companies didn't and the US put pressure on China for rhe mass exportation of their competing product and it was mostly shut down. Many coaches in the US are in the business of selling for example very expensive "Genotropin pens" their clients are required to use. "If no pharma GH like Geno then no GH at all" they say
They say there is fairly little completely bunk GH on the market and you are likely not coming across it if you've done even a little research on suppliers, according to Janoshik. Also says GH is very stable and is generally not degraded in transport according his testing.

He also says not only does the generic test better a lot of the time there is little to no fakes

Yes
And I don't see why he would lie about it either, of course you might speculate he's been threatened by some drug cartel ;D
But I was surprised to see he works for actual drug companies too so he must be legit. The myth still persists though, pharma from a western drug company is superior and China absolutely can't match it. They can't even make Anadrol according to oldtimer1 (who has zero experience with PEDs) ;D
The "generic" glp-1 drugs are a real headache for drug companies I'm sure, who would do anything to stop the trade.
Jintropin was already a big enough threat so they got the US gov to pressure China to shut it down.

For sure today, I haven't used GH in over 10 years. I think it was more common to get bunk gear/gh 10+ years ago. There is too much money in it today and it's not too hard to test it. Plus with the forums and social media, it's so easy to spread news if things go south with a source.
I believe a good UGL produces gear that is on par with pharma if not stronger. 100%
It's just so easy to produce these days.
In fact, last year I stopped my TRT script because i can get a vial of UGL Test for $25 from a source i've used for over 10 years, without the hassel of dealing with a Doc. I do the bloodwork myself and keep my test levels on the high end of normal. Can't say I would ever know if i was using pharma or UGL test at all.
I do see an Endo once a year just to get his opinion, but nothing has changed at all.

I do see an Endo once a year just to get his opinion, but nothing has changed at all.
There was this guru/coach, I forget his name, died a couple of years ago, who did bloodwork and tested a number of Rx generic tests and he claimed some pharma product didn't give expected numbers. Either it was underdosed or something else was going on. I think a 10% variation in dose is accepted by pharma standard, kind of like GH has only to be 96% pure but the numbers were still low even accounting for some underdosing. One of my favorite topics is brand name drugs vs generic. It should all be the same or you couldn't switch brands, but patients still claim to see differences with many types of meds, someone might prefer branded Viagra or adhd meds and so on and claim the generic is way worse. Why that is is the question... that's why I don't always automatically dismiss someone saying generic is not up to par but from experience China steroids are equivalent to western pharma, sometimes seems even better even though that shouldn't be the case either 8)

So, I did not get a placing. It's bullshit, but I,m feeling fine, no depression. Here are a few screenshot, I will upload videos tomorrow. Small guy in pink briefs second, green with belly third, big guy on my left beside me there first, I thought it should be between him and myself for first and second.

No sucking up, but I think you have the best overall frame and upper/lower balance there. Perhaps some of the poses were a little awkward.

You won last week and you got to compete in Amsterdam this week that's cool fuck a French judge probably just a hater

You looked incredible man. Most of the time I can look at results and at least understand what the judges maybe saw even if I totally disagree with them, but this is bad man. You CLEARLY were top 2-3. Not placing doesn’t make any sense.

That's a rough one Ro, Pics aren't great to judge by - I'm surprised you didn't make
Top 5 !! Hopefully better pics will reveal if you were poorly judged or if there was
A reason for a No Place finish.
Well done in getting there & competing.
Your time will come soon.

Have your tried using 52 ius of GH pre stage?

The more flat footed stance? Look how strong my legs look top to bottom in balance with the top. That big guys leg looks stringy kicked back in the usual manner, big calves though, and back.

I think there were 4 placings with top three being money ones. Seeing that pink trunked guy in second and that guy with the serious pregnancy makes no sense. Maybe I looked very best prior to going on stage, maybe I held a bit of water from stress or something, I was bone dry first thing, but still small differences over huge ones. I hardly sweated onstage which is unusual for me, my muscles had a small level of cramp backstage so I put some salt on my tongue.

Your RDB is old school like Arnold .
All guys in your line up do have one leg back flexing calve .That IMO helps squeeze hams bit better to show more separation ./Phil picture./
And your shoulders and back leaning backwards bit too much .
Peter Molnar in PCA was great poser and it def.helped him to win close calls.
Bottom line you have no eye catching defects or weak points and posing is easy fix .So you only go up from here.
And thanks for sharing .This thread gives me an extra push .I’m going to clean up pantry and start picking up the show after the New year.
