Mike Ashley - was he really natural?

[joswift]

Ha, I have that book in my files, the author  was S. Kleiner. Here's that sidebar, It wonderfully 90's bodybuilding -

"Several years ago, a group of researchers at Arizona State University studied the diet and exercise strategies of Mike Ashley, known
in bodybuilding circles as “Natural Wonder,” because he does not use anabolic steroids. During an eight-week precontest period, Mike did the following:

• Consumed roughly 5,000 calories daily—3,674 calories from food, plus a carbohydrate-rich sport drink, and an amino acid supplement.

• Supplemented with an additional 1,278 calories a day from supplemental MCT oil. (This meant that 25.5 percent of his calories came from a fat source, not including food intake. However, MCTs are not metabolized like conventional fats; the body uses them immediately for energy, rather than storing them as fat. Although MCTs represent a more compact source of energy—nine calories per gram versus four calories per gram for carbs—this approach is not recommended for everyone. The nutrition plan outlined in chapter 12 has wider application and will work for more people.)

• Trained on a stair-climbing machine for a full hour, six days a week.

• Weight trained six days a week, dividing his routine into two or three workouts a day. In total, Mike worked out five to six hours a day at a very high level of intensity. With these strategies - lots of quality calories and lots of intense exercise - Mike was able to reduce his body fat from 9 percent to a contest-sharp 6.9 percent, without sacrificing muscle.

You don’t have to start working out five hours a day (unless perhaps you are a professional bodybuilder training for a contest). But there is a connection between exercise and diet to burn bodyfat. You don’t necessarily have to cut calories. In fact, you can keep them high. Exercising at moderate to high levels of intensity will take care of the fat."

He's a pure natty, like Fat Lenny...

And Supposedly This Bitch Has a PHD !!  What in Stupidity

[Bevo]

Just as stupid as Tom prince thinking that mike o Hearn is natural

[oldtimer1]

there is a big poster of him on Victor Conte's office wall.

I think his involvement is clear.

Is that true? I heard that a Conte athlete could beat the tests until better testing came around.

[Fortress]

Ashley always put forth an aura of extreme phaggotry.

[tommywishbone]

Drugs.  Lots and lots of drugs.

[hazbin]

drug testing is a cat and mouse game.

new drugs are designed, then a year later they are added to the banned list

adding a polymer to an existing steroid may slightly affect it's efficacy, but raise the toxicity a bunch

the new 'drug' will be detected, but if it's not on the banned list yet, the athlete is deemed 'clean'.

Let himself go since he bought Newcastle
