So YOU want to be a body Builder

[Spongy]

Yeah, seems like 3J is the man, and I'm sure i'll end up hiring him as well. I'd be interested to know how long that lasts PB as well! I've been giving Intermittent fasting a try and so far so good. It actually works into my schedule pretty well at this point, but definitely not good for bulking. I'm cutting at 2700 calories a day now, and trying to fit all those calories into an 8 hour window is an absolute pain. Not only that but my workouts are fasted, just BCAAs before and during. My buddy is also a nutritionist working in the field and he's using me as his guinea pig

Zeek, you hiring 3j for pre-contest of just getting lean as hell for personal satisfaction?

Good -- thread, wish I could post my article regarding "The Delusions and Reality of Steroid Cycling" ---the pre-cycle checklist would mesh well with this thread,

I keep it extra "real" in that piece.

By all means at least toss a link to the article!

Just going for a leaner version of me as I progress into old age! The big bulky has served me well but I'm sure the heart and other organs would appreciate a leaner and lighter version of me.

Have you achieved extraordinary level of conditioning in years past? Contest-like conditioning?

Hey--- never too late to enter a show -- maybe Masters if your eligible?

I'll be 50 on my next birthday so I'm deep into the masters at this point.

Never contest shape! The lowest body fat I've ever been was 10% and I stay at or above 14% these days. Power lifting was my thing for about 10 years and then i switched over into bodybuilding.

So many of my friends have competed at local/ state and a couple at national level. They have tried to talk me into it for years but I see what they go through to get stage ready and no thanks!

Excellent link BTW Matt!

Great link Matt, I really enjoyed reading it. Although I can check all the items off my list, I'm still going to wait another 6 months or so before doing a cycle. I don't want to be one of the countless steroid casualties

Good thread bro. I thought I ate a lot but damn you got me beat by a mile

 

[Zeek]

I was considering holding out on this last meal I had but what the heck, have to show it all

I had sweet bread (organ meat)

blood sausage

cattle intestines

and beef ribs

all cooked over oak wood by the next door neighbor. he hooked me up with a huge plate and I devoured it!

I made a salad with olive oil, a bowl of pinto beans and about half a pound of peruvian cherries.

I won't eat again till I get home from the gym.

I love how this thread went from wanting to be a bodybuilder to food envy. I think for my 2nd cycle I want to actually train like a bodybuilder for once instead of just moving more weight.

 

[llD3MONll]

I'm glad someone appreciates those food items!! They were really good also Matt!

I bet some guys are ready to puke after seeing that last meal.

VM I think PB's intention was to focus on the food and what one should be eating to make gains. That is some quality protein in the pic he posted but he still won't answer the question of.. How long does that last him

 

[Spongy]

Zeek, man... Organ meat? Intestines? My chicken from Aldi is sounding pretty good right about now!

 

[Zeek]

LOL Spongy! You got me

I think PhatBastard stays up all night and sleeps all day! After he eats all of that good food

 

[DaHurt]

Zeek sir, I am very impressed by how much you can eat! How tall are you pops? I'm trying to picture what you must look like!
