honestly ill put my pic to anyones on this sight and probably destroy them after a good pushup pump in my chest, my back stays ripped and legs too. id love to see someone else besides me post up a freakin pic i feel like such a fag sometimes here  :P

but ive always required 8 hours of sleep no less, in partly cause im tall and naturally a heavy guy, i have to struggle to get below 230
These are the first comprehensible posts you've put up in quite awhile.

How long have you been sober?

Do you have a fast metabolism?

no but i would say that each set of squats i do is crucial to my metabolism

i like to do my squats in sets of 50 rest paused

i eat till i feel like i have ability to bust out 50

and dont eat if its too late and already too sleepy and dont have the confidence that food will give me the ability late at night when mentally i would love to do another set but readyness to go to bed is overpowereing


ive gotten to where i dont have any carbs during the whole day only pb for morning workout and raw spinach and maybe one fruit or chunk of sharp cheddar to keep me going at work

at night i need the carbs to do more sets, i usually go for like cinnamon rolls with frosting or icecream

i also enjoy some vegetarian meatballs made with soy since it has some protiens and soy has benefits on the health also some cooked spinach with cheese at night

it depends, right now i dont really socialize much just focusing on getting more ripped without sacrificing any workouts has made an immediate longlasting desire to become the master, theres people i could call and blaze the night away and 3 nights out of the week i will and i enjoy it always good conversations with people and uplifting. I think i required more sleep because i started back into doing squats everyday full force and the sleep was needed, ive always slept great though and insane dream skills.
So you are saying the squats are making you require more sleep? .

Minimum 6 or feel like shit. Sleep releases growth hormone therefore you gain fat if not sleeping enough there are genectic freaks though that do not require very much sleep.

like someone else said, tipy toe  for the cookie jar on top of the fridge every morning. That hits my calves nice and hard, huge pump! Cookies usually do the job for post recovery.

you look good are you natural?

you look natural maybe you eat and train alot and eat a good balanced diet, my sleep fluctuates perhaps to my favor when im consistently training high volume and eating alot/tons

Thanks Bobby! I always wanted to have hamstrings like tom prince I think he has one of the best  hamstrings of all time. MY hamstrings really responded to high heavy volume with every 5th set being giant set (in one set i would do 6 heavy, 10 medium, and 12-15 lighter weight really squeezing the muscle).  Trying to do the same thing for my calves now.

I knew Don Youngblood fairly well. We were both in the same business.

He used to get by on 5 hours a night consistently.


Look where he is now...


(No, I know that is not the reason he is gone, but it could be part of the equation)


Are you suggesting that Andreas Munzer got very little sleep as well...?
















Could have








he was on a lot of drugs


Get your fucking sleep. Period. Get your fucking period. Sleep.

You're well on your way, they're huge!
High volume, how many sets? By heavy you mean in the 6 reps range? i like to do 10+ reps for legs, just like arms. I do like drop/giant sets like that, i want to not be able to do more reps because the muscles are exhausted, not because the weight is too heavy.

I like to keep my rep range between 8-12. on some exercises i like to throw in 5th heavy set where i only go up to 6 reps then I'll rest for 15 seconds and do 4 more reps, rest 15 seconds and 4 more reps.

Colossus you have some monster hamstrings.  I need at least 5 hours to not be a drooling idiot the next day, 7-8 is preferred.  I also have a terrible time falling asleep.  Our forefather Benjamin Franklin had trouble sleeping as well, he had five beds in his house and would travel between them frequently until he fell asleep in one.
