This is a serious thread, so all you comedians please take your jokes to the 4 dozen or so other Brewer threads.
HYPOTHETICALLY SPEAKING, suppose Trey Brewer came to you (Blockhead, Troponin, Derek Anthony, Disgusted, Alex A, or anyone else who does contest prep) today, and asked you to take over the rest of the prep for the Junior Nats and USA's.
What would you advise him to do? In terms of cardio, nutrition, and training, what would your advice be?
Serious academic thread here, so again no comedy please.
Without comedy if 'LunchBox/LunchTrey' asked me to help dial him in for JrNats? I would have him do exactly this...
Cardio: I would have him on the treadmill at an incline in the 4.0-6.0 range w/ speed in the 3.0-3.5 range for 70 full minutes every morning(6:00am) up until Wednesday before the show. I'd advise him to keep his HR in the 118-124 range the entire time. Him having no real job I'd also have him perform another 45-60 minutes of the same type of cardio in the evening(8:00pm) as I would assume having no job allows you to train in the early afternoon or late morning.
Training: I wouldn't care as he can train himself. I'd just encourage him to keep his rest between sets no longer than 1 minute for anything upperbody and no more than 2 minutes for LEGS.
Diet: I would have him eating a higher fats, consistent protein and low carb diet. Based on the pictures I've seen I'd tell him to have 5 SOLID meals a day and 1 LIQUID meal(post-workout) only. I'd want him to shrink his stomach down a little bit. Or a lotta bit. I would probably tell him NO MORE than 350-375g of protein daily, 80-90g of fats daily and his trace carbs from veggies etc would probably be in the 50g range. ZERO sugar. ZERO animal fat so I'd have him be mindful of his red meat. As it got closer to the show I would have him cycle his fats. 4 days very low fats, 2 days moderate fats and 1 day NO fats. I'd also bring down his protein a little getting as low(for him) as 300g/day only. He'd hurt as his stomach is used to 9-10 meals and 10,000 calories but this is an extreme case here. Then as it got closer I would maybe have him have only 1 or 2 days of fats with his meals and the rest of the week a lean protein source and green veggies only. Maybe once every 10 days I'd have him eat a couple hundred grams of carbs in the form of yams or something. That would eventually be taken away, though.
Gear: No androgens. Anabolics only. Mild. Never breaking over 1g/week. More isn't better. I may even extend his life a little bit. Primo/winstrol/tren type of cocktail. I'd make him bring his gh down to 4-6iu's a day instead of 8-10iu's. I'd dump the T3 and DNP and see what plain ECA/clen 2 week ON and 2 week OFF does for him taking up to 140mcg of clen daily and ECA 2-3x's a day. Maybe.
That's in a nutshell off the top of my head. I don't know. I'd have to really sit and think about it and interview him and get an idea of what he is used to, open to and objects to. I would want him to justify why he eats 800-1000g of protein a day and give me definitive answers besides.."I dunno, thats what my trainer says to do..."
Good question.
