Samson Dauda - Is he the biggest freakiest BB ever at this point??

[Les Grossman]

Every guy in this thread hitting the same pose or variation thereof kills Doo Doo.......he wouldn`t be shit in the 80`s or 90`s !!!

Except for Mentzer, he looks like a soft middleweight.

Comrade Alexi, it was supposed to be a 6 month band.

[Methyl m1ke]

Much better. He could have maintained that physique for much longer by easing off the intensity.

He said as much as well. Although, tbh tearing your biceps doing bent over rows seems retarded. But he engineered the circumstances by always pre exhausting his back, his biceps became far more the weak link is my thinking.

I respectfully register dissent.

Pursuant to the authoritative directive of the People’s Commissar, the person holding the designation of Royalty is hereby subjected to compulsory political band and deprivation of all privileges for a period of ninety days, in unwavering observance of the collective interest and the dictates of GetBig law.

At this point in time there will be no disciplinary action taken against NW83. Per Private Messages with danimal77, Royalty has been banished for 90 days.

Mob rule is a dangerous and slippery slope of action.

Dorian was the best bodybuilder ever and trained his body perfectly. Unfortunately he has proven to be a terrible trainer for others. He pushes them way too hard, way harder than he ever trained. Overkill. No one will make progress with him as their trainer. As much as Iove Dorian facts is facts. His knowledge dies with him.

I think a lot of times you can make progress with different systems if you believe it will work and you click with the trainer personality wise. I don't know if Dorian pushes his clients overly hard. In any case it's impossible to make someone train at max intensity if it's not in their personality. It's easy to fake intensity and failure
I also don't know what he would prescribe to others now but he says if he had to do it again he would train even less frequently and with even less volume, plus he says he learned he should have backed off the pre-contest weight lifting intensity due to the injury risk since it's just about muscle maintenance at that point. Dorian would probably try to convince Samson to drop his doses and who knows if that would work

It's very obvious that the volume system in training works for a lot of bodybuilders
That's an indisputable fact.
Not to say Dorians training method doesn't work ( I've a lot of time for most of what Dorian
Has to say & his exercise form was impeccable.)

The HIT v Volume debate will not be settled as both produce results for different bodybuilders.
Mike Mentzer said the same about training less frequently with even less sets.

🤷🏻‍♂️

I never understood why bodybuilders didn't just rotate systems.

The HIT vs volume debate has been settled. It's very very simple, please follow along.

If you do something within your capacity it will not change you. Period. We understand this as over time and years spent training we eventually realize in order to make real gains a given muscle or muscles have to be pretty much destroyed In a given workout. That is the goal that is the destination we aim for.

Each time you train a muscle you have to shock it and expose the body to a load it's not accustomed to otherwise you are wasting your time.

HIT and volume/moderate intensity can both achieve this goal, yet one is far superior to the other due to the fact you reach the goal traveling the shortest path. Look at it this way, every thing you do in a day and in the gym requires calories and puts a load on your recovery abilities. You train eat rest and grow. Straight forward.

Now consider this, you can stimulate your chest with 3 all out sets of high intensity or you can stimulate it with 20 sets of moderate intensity. Obviously, clearly, logically, factually speaking you will make more progress following the shortest path simply because of the increased recovery Ability. If you can bench 405 for 6 reps do you believe sets with 275 315 or 365 are also taxing your system? Of course they are, however it's totally unnecessary to burn out your recovery Ability performing more than you really need. In any given workout if you train at a high level it's not only just the last set of each exercise that really counts but more accurately it's the last 1-2 or 3 reps of those last sets and thats it. The rest does nothing to help you grow thus do as little of it as possible.

Debating this is stupid.

If short intense low reps built the biggest muscles then power lifters and Olympic lifters would have the biggest muscles.. they dont, so it doesnt.

Volume stretches the fibres through blood flow
