there are many of you who disregard what I say as nonsense, but, I believe many of my opinions on nutrition/workout are indeed logical and relevant. Some of you here are new, and some of you here are stuck in your ways, and the only resources you attain your information from are generally from muscle magazines and/or bb.com type websites written by amateurs and non-academic types. Im not claiming to have a phd in biochemistry - but much of what i say makes a whole lot more sense than what many think. Heres what i have learned and hopefully some of you can take these pieces of info and it can benefit you in your bodybuilding goals:
1-supplements: are total junk- and these companies (BSN, Huscletech, etc) depend on the publics ignorance to sell their products. Many of you look at the back of the boxes and read the info such as "Clinical Trials suggest" or "testimonials from clients" - guess what: Science does not USE testimonials! And WHAT CLINICS did they test these products in? Oh... you just take their word for it, right? Does unregulated mean anything to you?
2-High protein- and i mean this for natural bodybuilders, not juiced pros: Anything more than .7-1g of protein lb/bw is total waste. You cant force your body to use any more protein than it can! Those of you eating 30g's every 3 hours for a total of six meals a day are accomplishing nothing but a deficit in your check account. Do you honestly think 8 chicken breasts a day is gonna give you that edge over just 5? More is not better- more is a waste. IF you cant grow off 150g's of protein a day, you really think 40 more is the ticket huh?
3-Low carb- i dont get this. Carbs are protein sparing. The whole bb'ing and general community have such a brainwashed perception of carbohydrates that it is sickening. Simple and complex are two different things. I dont encourage eating candy, soft drinks, donuts etc- that is junk, processed food. But whole grain breads - sweet potato's, oatmeal - pasta - great for you! Carbs are for energy right? The more carbs you eat, the more energy you have. The more energy you have, the better your workouts are. The better your workouts are, the better you feel- and the more progress you make. And your brain central nervous system will thank you also for not depriving them of these essentials. You cant rationally think you will gain fat by eating a few more potato's or extra servings of oatmeal do you? give me a break As i said before - excess adipose tissue is acquired the dietary FAT- not clean carbs. Science says this btw, not a meathead from the gym who "heard" carbs were fattening
4-cardio- so many of you stay away from essential element of good health. Have you seen branch warren or jay cutler? These guys cant even hold a conversation without gasping for breath. How sad is that? They literally can not even jog for 1 minute straight. At least they have that plastic trophy though. If you do tabata type training, or HIIT 3 or 4 times a week, you will feel so much better! Much more effective at fat loss, and it takes only a portion of time as opposed to those that stay on treadmill 45 minutes to hour of low intensity.
dont apply this information if you are on: gh, slin, 2 grams test a week, deca, dbol, anti-e's, anavar, anadrol, winny, sust, or other factors contributing to good health. This is just for natural bodybuilders who care about themselves and health. Btw natties, the most realistic goal you can hope for in a years time if about 3-5 lbs of 100% pure lean muscle tissue. building muscle is a huge process.
If you wanna get ripped to the bone - just take 8 to 12 weeks (depending on your bf%) and follow a very strict diet, do cardio. Its the same, simple method each and every time.
moderate diet = moderate results
extreme diet = extreme results
peace
