« on: August 29, 2006, 07:37:29 PM »
MY diet is VERY similar that I have been following. With a few exceptions.  Here it is, straight from his own diary!

5 egg omelet with 3 ounces cheese and chicken
2 cups of coffee
8 ounces of chicken and diet soda
Milk
Protein Powder
Coffee
16 ounces of fish with 1 Lite Beer.

This was followed for a few weeks prior to the 1980 Olympia.

TA, this is laughable and ironic coming from you.

Zane is the EPITOME of "all drugs" He ate like a bird and won the Mr. Olympia, yet off the drugs he would be all of 125lbs soaking wet eating like that.

See.

I am trying to tell you people that you can eat dairy and fruit.  Those 2 things alone will get you super ripped with no cardio.

New studies are showing Dairy to DRAMATICALLY REDUCE bodyfat,especially in the abdominal area.

Milk drinkers as a whole have a much much lower bodyfat and are able to obtain lower bodyfat levels than non-milk drinkers.

Zane never has weighed under 170 lbs.  He has been ripped his whole life.  Kept his size and shape and conditioning his whole life.

All drugs is laughable.

That summer diet is about 1250-1500 calories....enough to support about 125lbs case closed. Zane was all drugs.

Bodybuilders are overfed pigs.

There is no reason to consume mass quantities of food if you are Natural and especially if you aren`t taking that Insulin and GH garbage.

Actually he competed in the 190s-200s  and the 180s.

If you weigh 235 you can survive.  Arnold used to go to HIM for dieting advices.

They dieted together as instructed by wieder as they were training partners for a while.
