    Quiet in here.

    Off today. Ate non stop and did household chores.

    8 plate sized protein pancakes
    A 4 egg omelette with cheese, ground beef, onions
    3 slices of toast
    2 turkey breast sandw iches
    2 bowls chicken and pasta with tomato sauce
    A can of peas
    A can of corn
    Salad
    2 cups oatmeal

    That's what I ate so far today and I'm still hungry. Lol.

    On the surface, it sounds like the total opposite of what Marcus and Kel have been teaching us. But then I wonder whether some of the different principles can be combined or modified.

    Thoughts?
    Thoughts are this. He did not build himself to a pro level with that methodology. Once he attained that level his goals and objectives changed as necessary to fit his body. Meaning more refining and less focus on building. He began to think more long term. Nothing wrong with that as he was satisfied with his size. Go back and read up on how he and Gaspari used to train together when they were partners. It's nothing like that article says.

    I consider it a good thing. I'm always trying to increase my tank capacity. It's getting damned expensive though. Are you supplementing with b12 injections? My appetite has been off the charts since I started that.

    Meaning what? You eat too many carbs or you can't eat as much food when you carb load?

    Looking good man big arms on ya. Maybe shoulders could do with being attacked a bit just to get them in proportion with the rest of your size.

    Maybe add mass to chest if you want a bigger one.

    Exercises for shoulder building for me is bb plate shrugging and heavy db shrugs with pressing.

    Chest maybe adding extra weight on flat pressing and flies

    Snap on flat benching use db's flat all the time any bb pressing makes shit of my cuffs.

    You are in really good nick so there isn't much needed to improve. Have you tried really slow and powerful dropsetting? Amazing how you will shape yourself and grow.

    This is my light week every 6 weeks I a light week and change from building to the heavy weight to going to the heaviest weight repping it and the double dropping for 6 weeks I know the date that I am going to change the programme again.

    I do this because you can forgot for long you have putting your body under what is to be honest a lot of overload to cns, yates speaks of doing light for a week or two in his bb.com series on youtube so there is some logic in it

    Yes. Back tomorrow. Legs Thursday if no one minds. I would like some input. I'd like to change things up a little so the body doesn't get used to things.

    Yes do a light week because its impossible to carry on with that assault of this type of training for weeks on end, all what will happen is burn out. Drop all the advanced training protocols and just go to failure only

    Sounds good, take it easy there is no rush just make sure you open up the mind so you believe you can train in this fashion then learn perfect form and then make sure you fully understand training to positive failure which is harder than most think then after you have accomplish all this you can move on to the advance protocols
