Hey Markus, thought you looked good in the O,
was wondering, in your vids you train more with machines than anything. After hearing free weights would be better for most of my lifting career, whats your take on that?

I have to say that on the new MD cover with you and Dennis, you have the best shultern (shoulders) in bodybuilding, not just now but ever. Better even than Levrone in his prime.

The funny thing is, I am sure some joker will say the pic is morphed. I doubt it - Herr Ruhl's shoulders are just that damn big.

Welcome Markus! One Q: do you perform your off-season cardio before breakfast?

I think his offseason cardio is getting out of bed in the morning. or walking from the car to the gym. he's a monster.

Actually he claims in the latest issue of MD that he performs 30 min cardio sessions (off-season).

I do not really count my weight anymore. Being heavy does not always mean to be better.
But I think I will be at round about 285 lbs (130kg) again.
Mass was never my problem. My goal is to get my mass hard and sharp again. These things matter!

That is true.
Even if some people are surprised. I do cardio even in during the off-season. But not as much as in contest preparation of course. Just 30 minutes in the off-season and hardly in the early morning, because I hate it.

Thanks for into, "Little-Markus". Do you feel that brief pre-breakfast cardio sessions (eg 30 min) would inhibit (decrease) muscle growth during off-season..?
