your body doesnt recognize weight. ONLY REPETITION FAILURE

[Rimbaud]

today i am fasting for the first half of today because im about to go work and no need to have calories while i paint....so i may get in only 600 reps at 1500 calories

WTF?

[Steve387]

He's just a lot fatter there.  How is that a better look?

Ok. this one

[Quagmire]

Waddys shredded now but goddam a little higher bf and he looked like a monster. What is he 6'5?

[Marty Champions]

u said it only recognises failure. most people fail about 3 or 4 sets. so 4 sets of 1 rep to FAILURE should be in line with what ur saying, right? or did i just uncover a flaw in ur program

reaching repetition failure

and being tired to do another set are two different things

[pumpher]

I don't like what you're doing to yourself DW.

You used to have a great physique and now you seem to be losing a lot of muscle.

[natural al]

actually you're partially right DW, the body reacts to failure but you need to have progressive resistance in there to make your statement 100% true.

[The Squadfather]

anyone who thinksDW looks fat there is an anorexic bottom twink, he was at his best there.

progressive resistance can = more volume because the body is 'resisting' the more volume you put to it

calories supply the energy or infinite energy=infinite food

just like when people quit a workout they are 'gassed out' . when all it takes is a couple double cheesburgers or a snickers or whatever and i garantee if you had some major snacks at the gym you wouldnt want to quit your workout. when i used to go to the gym i would bring dougnuts or any kind of cakes or whatever while people would lift in there groups of five i would workout non stop as long as i had food and water

all joking aside man why don't you get back to where you were in the above pic, you looked awesome there.

[Camel Jockey]

DW isn't in a right state of mind.

tell me where im wrong here? unles you plan on telling 'websters dictionary ' to rewrite the meaning of resistance.

Agreed, shoulders and arms clearly much bigger, not fat at all either, some people are such morons.

sorry, I meant:

progressive resistance = overload

you must overload the muscle in order to make your statement 100% true, now I guess if you wanted you could say well I'm doing 1,152 reps now and I was doing 1.150 reps last time so I basically achieved a form of overload and going strictly by definition you would be correct.....you wouldn't add any muscle but you'd be correct.  

I dont' believe any type of training is "wrong" or "right" but I do believe that utilizing overload-always increasing your poundages you're using for a specific rep range is what builds muscle but you have to have a handle on the concept, once you get to the point of an almost infinate number of reps with a given weight it just becomes ineffective.....IMO.

dude MY FRIEND

progressive resistance can EASILY mean an extra set

we both agree upon progressive resistance is where you do progress. if you got one guy running balls out for one mile per day then have another guy run 2 miles balls out every day with a nice couple of candybars after the first mile so he can do the second mile full throttle

who do you think is going to have more leg development ? the second man is taking in MORE calories and doing MORE? i think this is a no brainer

I'll use the old "mike metzer" on ya.....if you look at a sprinters legs and a distance runners legs who has more muscle?  the sprinter-usually.  why do you think that is? 

[Marty Champions]

 
the first pic i was 265 im guessing? second pic 228 (depleted and trying to diet to get ripped=big mistake when i shouldve trained more and ate more all within an intellegent range and plan) i didnt have a plan for dieting for mrgetbig 2 i simply didnt eat shit , therefore i didnt have the energy to train for shit. even looking at the pics im not much smalller anyways i dont see what the fuss is about really

[Marty Champions]

if one sprinter is sprinting 2 miles daily
and the other only sprinting 1 mile a day

whos going to be the better sprinter?

duhhhhhh dude

you guys can tell me i look like shit all day till the year 2012 and ill be on my alien space craft saving you you fools from the floods because you didnt beleive me and hate me for no reason

the guy who's sprinting 1 mile a day.....and who the fuck sprints 1 mile?

who do you think is putting forth the most effort a guy who's working his ass off in the sortest possible timeframe or a guy who knows he has to keep going? 

you can hit a stick of dynamite with a piece of paper all day long but if you hit it once really fast and really hard with a hammer that's when you'll see some explosions...that's another metzer quote.

you can train long or you can train hard......you can't do both, especially if your a natural.

bullshit bro. i challenge you on your next workout ....after you finish your regular workout i want you to eat some twinkies or a protien bar i garantee you will feel that jolt of energy to keep training

um lets see on to your analogy now....striking a stick of dynamite with a peice of paper wont even exhibit one pound of force dude thats the same as pushing yourself away from a wall, of COURSE doing that you wont get anywhere, there is no comparassion to the hammer wich exudes 30 pounds of force, analogy failed my friend.

thats like saying you wanna bike across country but pushing the bike pedals with a feather or some shit of course you wont get anywhere. analogy makes no sense your comparing paper to hammers when you should be comparing apples to oranges atleast

what was your diet and training was like in the picture of u @ 265? Do you think u could get to there again mr waddy? 

[pumpher]

Where's the old DW?

I think he's been replaced by an alien shape shifter and is spewing all this crap out.

[ManBearPig...]

your legs alone withered away to nothing.

ummm....that's kinda the point I was making, you get more reaction out of the hammer cause you can't generate the force needed to get results.

the same holds true in BB for the most part-especially for the natural bber.

hey....if you think you're getting better by all means keep doing what you're doing, I was just having a friendly conversation...nothing more, nothing less.  Like I said earlier, I dont' believe any form of training is wrong or right, I just have my beliefs on what will get you from point a to point b in the shortest possible timeframe.

peace.

dude ive been training off and on for 11 years , do you not think i havent tried just going heavy?

im not ignorant to new or old ideas. i love to be proven wrong ill admit when im wrong

you recruit all your muscle fibers at the very end of the final rep of the set bro....the whole high repetitions scenario is a way to gauge how much calories are being utilized and 1rep=1 calorie is an easy method to tabulate a good diet or gaining routine


i garantee a guy doing 2,000 pushups a day maxing out at the end of the send every set and eating the required amount to have energy to compete it will be better than the guy only doing 100 pushups a day maxing out on the end of the set every set while eating less calories

this is how you keep bodyfat in check
