Believable yes necessary or even useful debatable. If you take 2 3cc shots of 250mg a day that would be 10 grams a week then add orals and yeah you could be over 13 grams but is it doing anymore than 2???
Are you asking if hypothetically, would 13g weekly be better than 2g weekly?
From what I understand, 3g weekly of injectable gear is considered pretty low end, even among amateur competitive bodybuilders [regional or state level guys]. A top National level guy once told me that some of the guys in his contest were discussing their gear cycles backstage, and he and others were surprised at one guy who was only using 3g weekly, as that was rather low end.
So my guess is that 13g weekly would be better than 2g...my hypothetical question would be whether or not 13g weekly would be better than 5-10g, or whatever the "standard" weekly pro bodybuilder quantity of injected gear is. Assuming that is common, as some have claimed.
Didn't Dallas McCarver's autopsy show that he was on between 15-25g of injected gear weekly?
As a large guy he can take more oil but you are still going to run out of spots and get very sore shooting that much but he didn’t say how much was orals could be a lot of orals and less oil. As far as the hgh the shots are easy enough as it’s water based assuming you have the money to afford 56iu the bigger concern would be the painful bloating as it’s an anti diuretic but he could offset that with other compounds.
I knew a superheavyweight NPC competitor in college who said he did 2 3cc shots a day so I know it can be done for a short time but eventually you will get tired of that
What do you mean by "get tired of that"?
As in, you feel sluggish being on so much gear? Or that the shots become painful, or that it's overwhelming to inject that much gear every day? Or something else?
It's funny when you said you can offset the GH bloating with other compounds.
Gosh...it seems to me that if you want to truly take bodybuilding seriously, it's just constant injecting of gear, force-feeding, and of course - the training.
Now do you see why I just train to be strong for my size, and rarely use gear, use it minimally when I do, and don't eat a bodybuilding diet?
I love the training...but taking that much gear and eating that much food must be absolutely exhausting...Sheesh.
PS - UNRELATED TO THIS THREAD, UPDATE TO B. HANK: the weight class nationals were held in Canada last weekend. I hadn't even heard word of it until eight days ago, so I didn't compete. But the One-Arm Circus Dumbbell Press record in the u-80kg class went up from 154.6-lb to 180-lb! And that happened when I was literally 10-lb away from hitting 155, and breaking the record. I don't see myself realistically hitting 180 any time soon. So yeah...that ship sailed. I know you thought I was being unrealistic to try to break that record, but a 155-lb Circus Dumbbell Press is good, but...nothing crazy.
I was aiming for that record, because, frankly, the Canadian record in my weight class simply wasn't extremely high yet. But now it's 180-lb / 82-kg, which would be more than my body weight at 80-kg. So yeah...I'll be training for it anyway, but I have no realistic expectation of getting it. I think I can get 160 though, which will still rank pretty high.
You say there is no 80-kg Strongman. But there is. And the 80-kg manlets are very strong - not just for their size, but for any size.
Look at the strongest 176-lb Strongman in the world, and the following six guys after him - B. Hank, are you telling me these guys aren't legitimate Strongman? There are heavyweights in America's Strongest Man who can't lift this much. So why don't you consider these guys Strongmen? Just because they don't want to weigh 250+?
