Bodybuilding

Not sure if anyone actually appreciates the competition of bodybuilding. I don't know if anyone here competes, etc. I've yet to see a thread on bodybuilding on Sythe.org yet, so I thought perhaps I should create one where us gym-rats can freely discuss competitors in the IFBB, INBF, OCB, NPC, etc. If I see comments relating to any of the following, I will report you;

AAS
PH's
HGH
Synthol
Insulin


I am a natural competitor, and I'm shooting for a pro card in the OCB organization (INPA) at the Southern States Natural, and yes I am natural. Here is a quick video of me running through so poses (horrible lighting, but you get the gist of it.) Oh and STRONG nohomo on the posing, and rolled up boxers, the poses are mandatory, and I thought people would much rather I wear the rolled up boxers over my posing trunks..

A list of my favorite IFBB bodybuilders, would be...

Dorian Yates
Ronnie Coleman
Cody Lewis
Phil Heath
Big bad wolf (Dennis Wolf)
Kai green
Frank Zane
Ed Corney
Lou Ferrigno
​

In no particular order...
My favorite natural bodybuilder is probably Layne Norton.

Feel free to discuss anything related to BBing on this thread weather it be training, dieting, competitors, etc.

 

Looks good hunter, I have also been training for 7 months now. Not for any compatation, but because im in iraq and that all there is to do.

I am doing a six day schedule, how many days are you working? we break it into 1 muscle group per day, and then do cardio every day, and abs every other day. what dos ur schedule look like?

 

Nice job man! I can't imagine working out in Iraq, so props to you, haha
Well, I typically run a 5 day split 2 days HIT during the On-season (Pre-contest training) during the off-season I do the same 5 day split, minus 1 day of the HIT days.

 

Your looking really good for 16. Something you could work more on is calves they really bring more attention to the legs but yeh. I subscibed to you so deffinately start making more videos!

 

god damn lol, i just started working out like 3 months ago and i've made some good progress i think, but your pretty big and your lats are huge. I would like to know what you do as far as workouts go.

 

Gotta start somewhere man, I've only been doing it for a year. As far as lats go, I'm genetically gifted I would say in that region, but I've also put very hard and dedicated work into them. I have no set workout, your body will eventually adapt to the amount of repititions, weight, etc. So I switch my days up (1 weeks light, 1 week heavy, 1 week pyramid, 1 week whatever my body feels up for) sometimes I though in a high volume program during a week (Quantum Body Method, or something like that.) As far as particular exercies that seemed to really work them well, probably Pull ups (Very wide grip), lat pulldowns (there is also a machine that isolates the lats a lot more at my gym.) Typically I saw more results going heavier, but remember it's different for everyone. If there were ONE certain way to train and get fit, EVERYONE would do it.

Calves are one of the MOST stubborn body parts I have to train. They refuse to grow. Though they are not BIG, they are ALMOST proportionate with my physice, believe it or not.. They should measure the same as your arms, my calves are missing about 1 inch from my arms.

 

What do you mean by HIT I understand high intensity, but what do u do diffrent on these days?

 

It's been proven to be the most efficient cardio to this date. It's been proven to burn less calories, but produce more skinfold losses. I have a few articles on the science behind them (I think they're written by Dr.Norton, but I'm not sure.)

The training is pretty simple, it's 15-20 minutes of a shocker. It doesn't have to be on a treadmill, in fact, it may even be better to do it on a track or something. First you warm up fro about 5 minutes (Slow pace) and you pick it up to about a jog for 1 minute, then you increase to a sprint (very fast run) for 1 minute, then decrease speed back to a faster job for about 30-45 seconds, then increase to the sprint again for 1 minute, etc.

You don't change a thing on these days diet wise (Post workout, simple high GI carb, post-workout whey/isolate/etc.) The only thing that changes is what you're doing at the gym.

 

Wait, what, holy shit, you're only 16?

Very impressive man.

 

My favourite bodybuilders are:

ronnie coleman
kai greene
victor martinez
dorian yates
phil heath

is that jim cordova guy natural? cos he looks a beast!

and good luck with the bb'ing. Ive been training hard now for about 4 years although i dont compete. It gets very hard sometimes to stay motivated, and there are lots of distractions!

 

Try creatine

 

for 16 all i have to say is holy crap. what are your lifts bro? im 20 and your probably close to me... though my bench is pretty weak most i bench is 225.

 

You got some big ass traps.

 

What's your diet looking like?

 

Sup guys, just signed up to these forums today, but i'm definitely into the lifting scene. you can see some videos on my youtube channel. keep lifting heavy brahs

 

Damnn looking good for 16 years old.. Goodjob lol

 

Looking real cut. and nothing is better for fat loss than HIIT when it comes to cardio. I was finally able to get definition in my abs after incorporating sprints into my routine.

I am not looking to be a bodybuilder but I do want to be in good shape. I lift four times a week and do HIIT cardio the other three days.

But sticking to a solid nutrition is the hardest thing for me. Eating tuna and protein shakes gets old real fast. It's hard to resist that junk food.

 

I'm using creatine now, its helping good got more energy and made me gain 3-4 Kg in 3 weeks.

 

Sorry this took so long, I thought it got buried under all these other threads!
Well, on the off-season (bulk) I normally fit around 75g fats (no more then 12g sat. fats) 350g carbs (sources from brown rice, oats, kidney beans, etc.) 225-250g protein (chicken breast, eggs, beef, steak, etc.) and it totals to around 4,000 calories calculating all of them. I'll edit this post to add my actual diet later, but I need to head to school

 

Holy fuck dude ur huge as my cock, What steroids do u used, d-ball? stackabol, protein, TELL ME NOW!!!!!!!!
