You are going to Hell, Ronan(?).

[BigRo]

Hell is for christians and the like.

Jesus said pick up a stone there I AM. God is everywhere and in everything, not just once visited to earth by Jesus two thousand years ago. The face of Christ is everywhere and in everything, the mountains, seas and forests, the animals and all the human faces you meet however distorted by suffering and ignorance.

The kingdom of god is within you, realize it through deep stillness and self surrender then you will know how Jesus felt inside himself.

 

[SuperTed]

Most BB myths have already been mentioned.
One other I used to believe is that muscle shape can be changed depending on the exercise performed.
I used to do standing bicep barbell curls for "mass" and concentration curls to help build that bicep "peak".

I used to believe that Ron Avidan was a sports photographer

[jon cole]

- one set to failure is enough
- bulking while i was already fat
- steroid are just the finishing touch

Going catabolic if you don't eat every few hours.

Training each body part only once per week.

[falco]

If you don't use it you lose it.

[oldtimer1]

Way too many to list. Here are a few.

1. Bulking then getting ripped. I believed this for decades. I regret every minute of drinking gain weight shakes.

2. Supplements

3.Giving credit to steroid users when 6 months clean looked like they never worked out in their life.

4. Girls like steroid bodybuilders. Yes, some do but the majority of hot chicks will actual like a soccer guy physique. You just have to be in shape.

5. When I was young I thought bodybuilders could fight just because they did body part training.

6. I use to believe bodybuilders in the 70's and early 80's were paid to be bodybuilders. Then I learned many were being paid by gay guys. Some were paid so heavily they could afford to buy gyms.

7. The champs in the magazines always trained with heavy weights. Then from watching some champs and hearing first hand accounts that they actually trained fast with light to moderate weights.

8. This is a big one. All the champs that Jones, Darden and the rest of the HIT crowd said are the result of HIT training. They would take a volume champ like Sergio Oliva. Have him come to Florida for a couple of weeks and pay him heavily. Then claim him as a success. Oliva trained his whole career with volume prior to going to Florida and after. Viator trained for his greatest condition with 15 sets a body part in the 80's that was witnessed by David Young. Joe Means who was the poster boy for the Nautilus book trained with volume. Darden's big selling books were filled with picture after picture of volume trainers.

9. I still can't shake this one. Always trying to lift heavier weights during a training cycle.

10. You look good in clothes when you are a perma bulker. Maybe, but when you take off the shirt the little lean guy will make you look like crap.

11. There are secret techniques to be learned. There are no secrets.

I opened this thread thinking this may well be the first informative and interesting thread I've read here in a while. It was wishful thinking on my part.

Frankly, the most valuable thing I've learned here is that steroids works. Being a lifetime natural with no intention of changing my status, I have to fully embrace my twink status. So be it.
