Poll - how heavy will Rich Piana get?
« on: January 18, 2016, 02:09:25 AM »
I've been following the daily updates from Rich as he starts on his 4 month cycle.

As he said himself it's really his chance to show whether he's all talk or not.

Personally I think the cycle he posted is pretty good. Pretty similar to what I would be suggesting.

So let's have a poll here seeing who comes closest to predicting his peak weight during the cycle.

I'm picking 350 pounds exactly. As anyone his height knows it really gets quite hard at over 280 let alone 300. So let's see. I think he'll do it. Will be interested to see the end results when he leans up.

Most of his weight will be PMMA/Synthol anyway.

Nope I mean 350.

How he looks is your opinion. Not everyone's cup of tea but u can't deny its freaky and will only get freakier as he grows. As for who is interested in how he goes, will it's a huge number of people judging by how many views his clips get.

It really is an interesting question how much of that weight is added substance. Would be interesting to do an exact calculation.

My estimation is 5% real muscle.

He's had PMMA in almost all his bodyparts. It's mostly his arms but he's used it in every other major muscle group as well. That's why the very shape of his muscle bellies now is different to what it used to be when he was competing.

LOL. I remember that post. Dude's got an addiction to PMMA. I actually think he seems like a decent guy but he's got some severe mental issues.

Rich Piana is such a trainwreck, it's hard to look away.  Sadly he is the only person who thinks he is OK.

99.9% of other people have no clue what he's using and think he's all muscle.

Ok. Well let's see. He'll get close to 350 I reckon and he always goes for extremes so let's see.

As for being a "fan boy" not sure what u mean but the term sounds a little gay. What I do have is primarily an interest in strength sports. As a result I have a related interest in regimes built around weight gain and muscle growth.

The sport I competed in was heavily drug tested but we have many power lifters in our gym so I have plenty of exposure to drug supplements etc.

I've managed 7-8 meals a day. It's doable. Although they were not anywhere near the size of his. But if you are on his type of drug intake I think it's quite doable (especially if you train twice a day), not that he is.

350lbs is above what Greg Kovacs usually walked around at. Piana isn't getting close to that weight unless he becomes a complete fatass .

Kovac got to over 400 I thought (not competing weight obviously).

Rich has a pretty big frame. No doubt he has the frame to hold the weight. Add more to his traps chest lats. And then legs which we have not really seen. If he swoles up on a test/GH/dbol combo I think we will see a pretty big dude. Let's see ...  

I say 350.

Kovacs did get as high as 400lbs at times but I think he was around 330lbs most of the year.
Piana isn't that tall and doesn't have a large frame imo. Look at pics of him taken from the back. Most strongmen aren't even 350lbs and those guys are structurally far bigger than Piana, taller and with higher bodyfat.
