Sneak preview of Radu 3 weeks out

[Uncle Junior]

Lol, he told the room, not just you.

Yes and to me and my friend privately when we were chatting with him 1-2-1 asking questions, told me his whole drug protocol, what to do what not to do.
I have all the notes I was taking down.
And video, I will get it an post maybe.
Said "never go below 250g carbs" unless for last few weeks and just up cardio instead.
The guy trains 5 hours a day.

[BigRo]

5 hrs a day is excessive unless its 2hrs weights 1 1/2 hrs cardio and 1 1/2 hours sex

5 hours a day is just simply stupid! 

[Cleanest Natural]

what idiot came up with 5 hours a day?

I swear the IQ averages double digits around here. Do you REALLY think me and Disgusted don't know what we are doing? Are you THAT stupid? Jesus Fucking Christ 

I take a beginner who was obese in a year and a half to competitive bodybuilding, Disgusted is doing the fine tuning. The subject looks better that the detractors ever will, everything is on point, so what is the problem?

I am not explaining myself, I am sincerely dumbfounded because I realize that most here have no fucking a clue as to how the human body works.

The only guy who understands how things work seems to be Van Bilderass and he pointed out the exact obvious.

The rest cannot get out of the little box they think from and bark like blind dogs.

You think you can do better than me and Jim? show me the people you prepped and their results. Especially beginners after 1-2 cycles.

If you can get away with 250 grams per day then by all means. Better yet, 500g a day.
It depends on how fat you are, how long until target date etc.
I have no problem with carbs, if you can eat them then do so. Though can't deny some pros under Palumbo have looked good despite the keto diet.

My training partner is a couple of months out of show and carbs are around 100 a day, with "only" 300 grams of protein (plus some aminos). And he's doing 2-3 hours of low intensity cardio a day (2 weight sessions per day most days). What should he do, lower protein so he can increase carbs to 250? Increase cardio to maybe 5-6 hours to accomodate for the carbs?

Also remember, Lee was never one of the crazy shredded guys. Flabby glutes.

Radu trains 4 times a week with weights for almost an hour and does 2 sessions currently of 45 min low intensity cardio. Diet varies.

Lee forgot to mention that when you have two pharmacies up your ass the body needs more arbs than a beginner competitor on his 3rd cycle   .. also not everyone has the same metabolism.

That sounds normal.

Keep up the good work, brothers.

One dude who was jacked as all hell during his first show told me he did 9 hours of cardio a day.
I asked him why, told me he wasn't working so when people went to work he went out to walk.

I know a guy who did a show and did 6 hours cardio a day


He was a postman.

Believe it or not,but Dave Mastorakis told me that he and Mike Mentzer would walk the mailmans route for their cardio.

Casual walking isnt exactly an athletic endeavour.
People ask me if I do cardio, I say, I walk the dogs, but really, it isnt cardio in the true sense, my heart rate isnt soaring or Im not perspiring so really as far as im concerned its not true cardio.

saying a guy walks 9 hours a day for cardio is like saying everyone does cardio who walks from a to b.

He's a pro, that's his job, why wouldn't he train 5 hours a day.
I 100% believe he does when pre contest mode.
3 x 1 hour cardio (LISS) + 2 x 1 Hour Weights.

No one ever said Disgusted doesnt know what hes doing Sev.
You on the other hand.

I bet disgusted is cringing with your name being in the same sentance when discussing contest prep.

lee does up to 3 hours of cardio per day in the on season. For off season he eats cake and does weights only.

You have done an amazing Job with what you have had to work with and no doubt in 1-2 year time Radu (if he keeps it up) will add more muscle with same level conditioning etc. The fact that this is first time on gear, only trained 6 months is amazing in itself no question.
But my feeling is your pushing him too hard too soon to compete, why is he even wanting to compete after just  6 months solid training, personally I would have taken a longer term approach but obviously its his choice.

My point about extended bouts of very low carb/zero carb dieting for long time being completely unnecessary and detrimental  (unless it's to drop water couple week before show) still stands. I used to be big fan of Keto and Lyle McDonald Ultimate Diet 2 before I realized its fucking stupid unless you have huge rush to get in shape quickly.....like suddenly you have to do photoshoot in couple months you didn't know about it.

Every time Radu eats carbs he looks amazing, no need to keep inflating and deflating him like a balloon for so long.
With him obviously he is already lean, why so drastic? You sacrifice too much muscle with this approach.
You starving him and making his body shut down for no reason
He will have even harder time in future dieting.
Layne Norton was 100% correct about what he said about effect of low carb dieting in the long term.

Walking is not 'cardio'.

It is an 'activity that requires energy' - hence, walking far enough daily will add to your energy deficit and increase fat loss.

nobody takes you seriously or gives a fuck about your "opinion". You are pretty much worthless.. like a side show at a fair.. based on your "observations" you seem to know fuck all about bodybuilding. And the funny thing is that it takes both me and Radu a few short months to produce a physique that wipes the floor with your "all time best" (meaning 8th place 20 years ago)

you are like a turd on the floor.. it's just there
