As requested, a few 240 pics

[davidpaul]

I know I wanna drink 2 whey shakes a day.  I just gotta figure out those other 5 meals.  It's my biggest problem.  I don't understand carbs, simply put.  I don't know what kind to eat when.  high/low GI.  I don't know how to eat at night, when I'm the hungriest. 

240 you need the principles

man forget all that science.. foolishness....
no offense.. people over complicate...things all the .. just train
i guarantee you.. if i was training with you you would have to make improvements..
.. hard honest training....
i think you have to build a good base before you start complicating stuff..
trust me i'm living proof..
hard training... and more importantly.. loving to train to me its not.. trainin to get big.. . its loving the feeling of lifting heavy weights.. the muscles are a bonus

[slaveboy1980]

yeah, I had poor range of motion back then.  I see that now.
Also I was 40 pounds bigger (up to 222 at my heaviest), and used knee wraps and back braces and spotters.

Today, I dunno.  It's all about being healthy.  This morning I got up and had a banana on the floor with the rugrat watching sesame street.  We went for a 2 mil walk, then had some waffles.  Watching the Backyardigans now having our morning juice.  I know that 8 egg whites, a cup of oats, and 4 cups of crystal lite would be a better breakfast, and maybe there will be a time in the future when I do that.   I know that putting 10-15 pounds on will bring my arms back a bit, fill out the back, etc... but at the moment, it's not an important goal.  I have perfect bloodwork, great blood pressure, zero injuries.  Hitting 200 and adding muscle might be a goal soon.  Just not yet.

nothing wrong with that, we all have our own goals  ....

to be honest tho;having a good physique doesnt require that much time per week, it just requires consistency..3 days a week at the gym (approx total training time 3x1 hours) will take you very far
and if you dont have time( or energy) to cook good healthy meals you can always drink some of the calories. Get some protein powder and mix with oatmeal and water in a blender, have that shake 2 times per day in addition to your regular food.

Gaining muscle in a caloric defecit is not efficient. It is possible in young males and with drug users however but it isn't very effective. Im not saying to gain 50 lbs though. An excess of calories is neccesary along with heavy weight to promote growth. Adonis has agreed with me the bodybuilding is no productive in the least. Any form of growing is going to decrease your life span. Anything that promotes muscle growth will shorten your life (examples being steroids, igf, insulin, increaded metabolism// protien synthesis, etc..). Anyway that isn't the point. The point im making is that it is good to see Rob has dropped from the whole bodybuilding cult and is intrested in staying lean. When people ask my for lifting advice now i try not to get their hopes up. Infact i tell them not get into it at all and to just excercise for fun because once you get stuck in this world and obsession it is pretty hard to come out of it. I now see myself 20 lbs heavier and view it as fat. I can't get out of the obsession of being insanly ripped all the time. I notice adonis even fluctuates in weight from time to time. You eventually have to slip a little.

You don't have to try to gain in a deficit.  You could stay at maintenance or just a little bit above.  I find it hard to believe that you would have to eat that much extra to put on a pound or 2 of muscle a year, which I think is the most you can really gain as a natural that has been training for a while.

[Nordic Beast]

your still trolling for advice huh rob...

shit more people than god have given advice to you-----------if you havent gotten it by now (being in the BBing scene for the last 3yrs) then either your A) retarded or B) just lazy and still looking for an excuse--------------its not complicated

you had a shitty physique even when you were single and had time---now your excuse is you have a family


you are the ultimate internet troll


always have been always will be



you talked shit about hte people who competed last year saying you could have beat a few of them----but when it s time to compete you back out yet again even though you promised to over and over again

[Whiskey]

I doudt 240 or bust could squat an empty bar with those birdlegs let alone 405 for 20 reps,  thats just an outright lie plain and simple where the fuck is squadfather to call bullshit on that since he claims to be an authority on bullshit claims.

I ve seen more meat on a chicken Mcnugget.

Hahahah adonis and i just recently found that Eugene Sandow used to eat 4400 calories a day. True fact. I eat right now because i enjoy it. I don't even add. I don't lose wait unless i count calories.

[power_n_glory]

Don't let anyone tell you different. Go out and enjoy life. Don't stay stuck in a prison.

do you live the high life how often do you get laid you sound just like another nerd

[Camel Jockey]

405 for 20 with those quads? hahahahaha

[SteelePegasus]

I doubt that he had access to the nutrional guide and calories per food item during those times I doubt if he counted calories..

how many calories were in a standard bowl of stew back then? without knowing the contents you would have to "guestimate", plus factor in that many of the ingredients weren't "light"

Very accurate article here http://query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?_r=1&res=9A03E7DE123CE433A25755C0A9609C94669ED7CF&oref=slogin

I never said 400 x 20.

I went over 400 for partial reps.  Period.  I was 40 pounds bigger at the time.

Nordic, you have a serious hard-on for me.  What's up with that?  I posted pics, even though I looked skinny and sick.  Get on with your own life.

Eating because you enjoy it is great, I'm just calling into question the necessity of gorging to gain muscle.  I think you need more hobbies, you are making BBing harder than it needs to be.


I'd be interested in seeing the source...also note that he probably trained a lot each day, so even if he did eat this much it might not have been that much over maintenance for him.

hahahahaha! ok "dp"

[Riddick]

Thanks guys. 

And honestly - and I swear to God on this - I vomited about 5 minutes before taking those pics last night.  Had the flu pretty bad but wanted to get some pics up before the deadline.  So the next batch should be better.

If anyone out there is experienced in bodybuilding nutrition and wants to help me plan out a nutritional regimen, please PM or email me ciscorob5@aol.com  - I'd be happy to trade services in return.  I just need to come up with a simple 7 meal plan that'll work well with my bodytype.  Thanks! 

Should be too hard to diet since you're home ALL DAY!

LOL. Don't take it personally. He took a run at me regarding my poor grammar. LOL. I only use words for a living. What do I know?

[G o a t b o y]

I'm not sure I understand all the emotion that people have about me taking a few pics, but here they are.  Enjoy?



31 years old.  5' 10", 180 pounds. Interests include long stroller walks and eating grilled cheese sandwiches. Don't claim to be a bodybuilder, just a guy who tries to stay healthy.  I hope these pics have made a few lives more complete, as the requests for them have been plentiful.

Hmmm....  you and JaeJonna would have been close.  It could have gone either way.   You definitely would have won the "gayest tattoo" award.


Why cover your face?  Your pics have been posted all over the place before.
