question for bob chick.....
« on: May 01, 2008, 05:52:09 PM »
bob,
what does your training and diet look like now you are not competing. many pros shrivel up and fade away and its cool to see you still maintain your size and stay pretty lean. i have met you many times at shows while competing and even now you still have some good size on you. do you feel its from training for so long? some have told me even after stopping drugs one can mantain size and strength to a degree but just loose that "on look". how do you feel about eat big to be big? at some shows ive see some pros so busy they dont eat like all day. once at the new englands gunter only had time for a pro bar all day, and said he just does the best he can.
thanks in advance

He did a good job of going over this in a pretty candid manner in the "War for the Worlds" series on bodybuilding.com

I still train 5 days a week most of the time, the exception being on the road and filming....eating big to be big only works in regards to pre competition training. Most guys over eat because they like eating....the body will only use so much protein at a given time...

More misinformation. 

A recent study by the University of  New England found it to be 30.

One hundred students, 50 of which were placebo.

Carbs were based primarily on what you looked like at a given point in the program....No pro bb that I know uses percentages to calculate their intake. Grams are used based on various factors.

You don't know many Pros do you Bob? Milos says a 70/25/5 Ratio but I guess you have said here before he doesn't count as he has not competed in many years and no longer has an IFBB Pro card.Point taken.

You CAN assign %'s to it...but it's unneccessary. It also changes along the way, which would change the % ratio.....

can't get ready for a show on a calculator...

Sure did....can't make proper changes when you don't know exactly how much of any one thing your ingesting....common mistake among amateurs.

Exactly, I have seen so many screw up (myself included) by not adjusting properly. A percentage is just that, a percentage.

I use considerably lighter weights now....preservation of the joints after 30 years of lifting is piority. We use 3 sets per exercise, 10-12 reps per set (sometimes more) 3-4 exercises per bodypart.

How much do you weigh these days and for the point of comparison, how much did you weigh in the offseason when you competed?

Thanks for your time

Bob do you think if you had paid Milos $500 an hour you would have got your Pro card quicker or do you think you would have ended up Sick like some of his guys with the 3year Flu????.

I just stepped on the scale today at 260....looking to get leaner for upcoming projects.

Never weighed more than 275...
