Your right he was genetically gifted but a natural he was not!!!! But yes he didi diet up for shows. Thats why he gets to 240 to 260. I can only get to 210 hopefully. Big difference. I will do my best!!!! Thank you bro for the compliment

I know he wasn't, just the only example I could think of.
Doing reps of 495 on flat bench 4 weeks out from a show,,, UHHHG YEAH,,, not natural.

I have a 1/4" lump/bump on the outside of both 4arms. I have to flex for them to show. They are in the exact same spot.
My dad has them too, he told me when I was younger they were veins.
The leaner I get the bigger they look.
I have seen the same looking type bump in mine & friends ab area from gh/insulin shots.

Well smart ass if you read all the pages of this thread, I am not "trying to say anything"
If you really read my post you can see that I was saying that the vein lumps in my arms look just like gh /insulin bumps.
The lumps could be just that, veins???
I have no idea.

Is your training different offseason as opposed to contest prep?

Is your training different offseason as opposed to contest prep?

I tried something different this offseason. I actually started lifting extremly heavy with low reps. Well lets say this it didnt work out to well, had a slight tear in my pec. So I went back to my old way of training. Remember always train what works for you. Dont try to emmulate anyone else. We are all different. Find what works for you!!! Thats the best advice I can give you!!!!

As I get closer to show time I increase my reps even more and the rest time gets a little shorter. But thats about it.

It's all good bro. I get it all the time. Actually a buddy of mine also my training partner. Alot of people think he is starting to take aas. He laughs all the time. Cause I told him once he starts to get his diet right and train with me people would start to say that. Sure enough. Now peeps think he is on something. Just with a change of his diet.

you look insane last year bro. whats your training look like whats your principles?

[IronBrendan]

Nice session bro.

So is your diet drastically different in the offseason? (Do you cheat a lot?)
