"The Truth" w/ Eric Broser (Q&A and Training Articles)

[bodyfx2]

i have recently been using HIT the original version.What r your thoughts on JONES MENTZER DARDEN YATES DC TYPE TRAINING? appreciate you taking the time to converse with me.Dont you have a book where could iget it? AMAZON? THANX

I am a believer in the high intensity/lower volume method of training, but also feel that VARIATION in protocols is needed regularly to continue gaining muscle...thus my creation of PRRS and FDFS.

I co-wrote a book with Author L Rea and now have a DVD and E-book all about PRRS.

And it is my pleasure to chat with you.

hey eric,

i have been reading alot about genetics and bodybuilding ... and i have come to know winning competitions is all about hard work + mass + conditioning + separation+ symmetry + wide shoulders + narrow waist + perfect flow+ genetics+ round muscle bellies + no weak points............
and now i do understand that i cannot win championships....i am 5 feet 8 inches 26 years old... 195 pounds with ten percent bodyfat.... have been training for 4 years.... i can bench press 330 x 10 and deadlift 405 x 12 squat 450 x 9 reps with execellent form...........grown from 120 pounds to 195 pounds

my question is about gaining muscle mass ..... in my opinion a person can gain musle mass till he can progressively overload......evry year the rate of progressively overloading decreases.... but one can still move forward inspite of the slower rate...

can a person with average genetics be a muscular 240 pounds.... bench press 405 x 10
squat 500 x10 and deadlift 500 x10..... if he can put in all his resources year after year to progressively overload......or is it impossible for people like me........

wud appreciate your advice
thankyou

I don't think underhand grip pulldowns are such a great isolator, but they are excellent to hit the bis in a somewhat different way, especially at the end of the workout. Just as BB curls will somewhat involve the anterior delts, the underhand grip pullup will affect the lats to some degree.

Very difficult to answer this question accurately, but using myself as an example...I have average to lower than average genetics as far as I am concerned. I started out barely bench pressing a bar and weighing 125 lbs at almost 6 feet tall. I eventually reached 273 lbs, although it was sloppy, and benched 495 and deadlifted 600 or so. I hurt my back squatting and after that never tried to push my numbers high on that exercise again.

That said...it took me about 10 years of VERY DEDICATED, GUT BUSTING, INTELLIGENT, CONSISTENT WORK, with total sacrifices made in my life to make it there.

Yes, it CAN be done, but you have to truly pour your soul into it.
