Candizzle is an expert on training and nutrition. I trust no one but him concerning my health, not even my doctor.
Not sure if you're serious or not, but while candi is learning an expansive array of bodybuilding information I think even he can acknowledge that his experience is still infantile. That's no knock on him though. I have no doubts that with time he'll be a guru AND encounter real world experience. Doctors can sometimes give you the generic propaganda spiel but their information is still valuable. And this is coming from a guy who's doctor told him to stop taking test injections, find a wife, have kids and be good to my neighbor (can I sue my doctor for that??) lol
Abs smoothing over? For me, easy. A little bit of milk and too many carbs and it's all gone to hell. What my current plan is, is to stay natural and just cut down as far as possible without losing mass... then start taking a little bit of sauce and cut down even further with some tren. I dunno if you juice, but that stuff is the most amazing androgen when it comes to outstanding composition changes. I know there's lots of other shit out there but clen leads to necrosis of certain heart cells, you can get scary palpitations (like I did), I even got fucking cramps in my gootch. Damn near tore my ex-gf in half when I was entering her from behind!!!
Just diet down real hardcore, let your body stay comfortable at a lower bodyfat and then when you lean bulk you shouldn't be too much over 10%. I realized just recently that I'm not a competitor, so it suits me no good to get fat and lose definition when no one is going to appreciate it. If you're competing, stop being a puss puss and don't worry about your abs when you're getting into the off season. I don't want to show off but or anything but I think a much more refined physique is probably what most people would be content with if they're not getting on stage. Not one to be superficial or anything, but fatceps do not impress anyone. If you need to tell someone you're a bodybuilder then you're not doing it right. If you compete, don't worry about the abs in the off season. But if you're not competing, staying at a lower bodyfat should probably keep you content.
