If you really want to get big and shed fat at the same time, you need to take human growth hormone (HGH). Awesome stuff but you have to be pretty rich to afford the stuff.

 

i knew someone who spend £2000 on it for a BB comp, he looked flat got nowhere, don't know much about it but don't think its like gear where you just jab and thats it.

 

With HGH its the cumulative effect of the stuff and it takes time, it works well if mixed in with a good steroid cycle at the same time.

 

a lot of people were looking at this guy to see if it worked, i dont' think anyone tried it after that, i know a few tried insulin even (that stuff you inject into whatever muscles you want bigger) all for local shows!

 

sythnol OR test Prop that causes site growth/swelling n **** me it hurts.

Your looking at 3k for all meds sups etc for 6months HGH but your talking about having exhausted the AAS routr.

 

Would not touch insulin, it just makes you diabetic in the end!! The worst thing about HGH is that it makes everything grow including your heart and also your stomach. which looks like your 6 months pregnant even with zero body fat. Basically you need to train like an animal, eat the same and most importantly sleep right and with the right steroid cycle, 2 pounds of muscle a week is the minimum you would gain.

 

is that why most of them competing in the Mr O had distended stomachs, wouldn't bother just on that point, like you say i think you would have to get everything spot on if you were thinking of trying it

 

not that? can't remember the name, its not a steroid................

 

Synthol is an oil you inject into muscles to make them look bigger but you lose all normal shape and size. if you search for greg valentino on google you will see what i mean. for a guy of 5ft 4" he has 24 or 25 inch arms!!!

 

And AAS doesnt? Enlarged heart?!?!?!?!

Id use it it if needed but lets be honest who trains for a serious reason?

 

i've seen him, he should have starred in hell boy, could have been his brother

i keep thinking lasix but thats a diuretic, sure it begins with E

been years since i've seen any gear so bit out of touch

 

reDICKulous

The guy is a monster and he is every bit a strong as he looks!!! Do you like the look of the modern bodybuilders or the mid 70's early 80's? e.g arnold, franco and so on.

 

The prob with BB nowadays is that it is toooo far removed from normal size.

If you go back to Steve Reeves/Reg Park they were clearly bigger than normal people - but not so far removed that people stopped seeing them as men with larger muscles.

Arnold/Franco took it as far as it could go really.

Then Yates came along and it was all about size......ending up with Coleman who is now so far removed from a normal human that the average persons sees little difference between him and Valantino nutcase bloke above with 5ft arms. The only people that can appreciate Coleman are other BB'ers......yet with Arnold, Reeves and Co they were appreciated by the public (hence they all got stuck in the movies)

The sport has become isolated by its own extreems - which is a pity because what Arnold did with th sport could have been the thing that got it mainstream if people like Bob Paris and Shaun Ray were rewarded for their bods...instead of being ignored in favour of Yates and his mass.

like said earlier strongman/powerlifting.. Dont like body building!

 

Si you numptie ( ), Pudzianowski was a bb champion before going into powerlifting. Powerlifting alone doesn't make you look like THAT..!!

 

That is guy is an exception to the rule though. He has phenomenal strength but beautiful aesthetics to go with it! not like some of the lard asses on the strongman circuit (glen ross)

 

Since when?

was boxer, martial arts an PL. Not heard bb? take vasil though shot putter same build!
Think youll find its the insane amount HGH

S

 

Yep, i'm 99% certain he was Polish champion, at the very least. YOU know as well as anyone here that powerlifting doesn't make you pretty, just very strong and bulky.

 

joking?

im shreded 15st10 at the min with abs. sub 10% body fat

you know my weights too ,not shy! Over 100k are bulky but now weight really matters

 

You're only 22/23 mate, if you don't look good now you never will!!

 

lol cheeky fker hes only 26 ^^^ lol

Si

 

Que? Who is?
