Mr. Minnesota seems to connotate a successful bodybuilder. I do not know what Mr. Minnesota recommended, but I do know Condor just posted this:

My plan was new because I took the advice of a former Mr. Minnesota competitor and basically ignored my protein intake and focused ONLY on calories.  It worked great.  
 


His plan was taken from the principles of Clarence Bass, author of "Ripped."

I'm sorry, I didn't quite catch where Condor placed in his show or have seen his pics. That being said, you post a pic of this Timberwolf dude and the first thing I have to ask myself, One, whats he on and 2, how much eca, clen or T-3 is he taking. Been doing this waaaaaaaaaaaay to long Adam, sorry.

Putting processed shit into your body is never a good thing. Period.

As far as reaching my goals, processed food or not, it did not matter whatsoever what I ate as long as I stayed below a certain caloric level.

Simply not true for everyone. With that said,  Also, the fat and carbohydrate content in a Big Mac will certainly provide more satiety then just a suppliance of one Macronutrient ie 600 gr. of Chicken Breast.

The 600 gr of chicken breast is more calories than a Big Mac by the way.

i meant chickenbreast schnitzel...600gr have 600kcal...don't know how much a bigmac has but it should be somewhere around 600

I still had at least another few months to get in contest shape, but for the purposes of Halloween, it was good enough:

Dude, I don't know why or how people believe this, but not all calories are the same.

Calorie restriction works, but the overall quality of that calorie needs to be there.

That was me at around 153 lbs, starting at around 166 lbs.  No, I wasn't ripped but I was happy with the progress I had made.  Certainly better than that low-carb shit.

Thanks man.....no that was a couple of weeks ago and since then I've been out of the gym....I kind of wished I would have kept pushing it to see how far I could have went....but then again, I'd need something like a contest to keep me motivated or else what's the point, you know.

Well if you eat like a girl, your body will eventually emulate the physique of a girl..








I know that from first hand experience. I used to be a matchstick Chinese hooker in a previous lifetime. :D

But it looks more like the problem is the amount of calories if you have troubles in both cases.
Maybe you just need to still lower them somewhat. Do pig out days help?
