    Well done! Great pics BG, thanks for sharing.
    And how the FVCK do you have a decent hairline??! I'm kinda pissed about that.

    On another note..Thought I'd share this:

    The wife finally decided to get off her ass. So of course she can't see her way clear to do anything I suggest. So she has roped in one of her girlfriends to working out with her. This prompts her friend to suggest that her husband should train with me.... So I agree because I am (as you guys are) an advocate of self improvement and I always want everyone to exercise.
    However... At the beginning I'm quietly reluctant. He's a good dude, but I'm not looking forward to plowing through all his previous experiences and training ideas.

    Mind you, I train in my basement. It's not the lap of luxury, but my shit is nice and there is plenty there to get the job done.

    So he shows up. He has not trained in five years. Thankfully he is super cool and basically puts me in the driver's seat by wanting to train exactly as I do. I'm thinking: Oh boy.. and begin to explain HIT while we warm up and get some weight on the bar.

    It's clear that he doesn't understand at first...but who does, right? So we start working through flat bench. I keep adding weight on him and he's objecting.. I'm being nice and explain that we will be increasing weight and lowering reps in a rapid fashion.
    I can tell on the last working sets that he might think that I'm just trying to make him look weak when I spot him and force reps.

    The whole time I'm telling him that it's all about maximum effort and failure. It's not until the drop sets that he stands up and goes "wow man".."i really like this!" "it really hits"

    I was stunned. It clicked for him, bigtime.
    We moved on through incline and dumbell flat..
    Fast forward to incline flies (last exercise) He's a sloppy mess, no control, wasted. I tell him that's it, we're done. No 2 hour workout, no reps to infinity.. Just failure and beyond: Every movement, tear tissue.
    He's smiling, shaking his head and says something to the tune of "simple and effective" while he rubs his chest.

    So he's all in, all about failure, and super motivated to find the correct weight for the needed rep range. He quickly realized that I was doing a lot of computing to try to figure out where he needed to be weight wise for each exercise.

    did I mention that for the last ten years I have trained alone? Guess what...Now I have a spotter and can actually do negatives and push it just a little harder. By last friday I was seriously considering taking a week off to let some shit heal! lol

    And here I was at the beginning thinking that I'd have him run off in two days!

    Thanks for this. A while back I watched my first Piana you-tube video (with the mountain). Thought some of his size was syntrol - not sure - thanks for confirming!

    Check your estrogen Sil. You're getting way to upset over simple humor. There is no "safe space" in here. We all can be and have been equally abused!

    You make excuses in all your threads when people call you out. Ive been nice by staying away from replying for the sake that guys liked you here. But you talk a lot of shit, 20+ cycles you only look ok, your delusional about you muscle quality, bf and that you are even in the same realm of the pro's you compare yourself to. They would laugh at you. Your not a body builder, your a juice head that only cares about how big he is. You dont diet which is the biggest part of being a bodybuilder.....thats what separates gym rat/juice heads from body builders. You drink while on cycle and have no dedication. You lie about what you take....your full of shit.

    So you dont like the way we are, then stay out of this thread, you have had your chances. Keep running your mouth in here and you will learn that in fact this forum is a privileged. Human nature to not appreciate something until its gone.

They would laugh at you. Your not a body builder, your a juice head that only cares about how big he is. You dont diet which is the biggest part of being a bodybuilder.....thats what separates gym rat/juice heads from body builders. You drink while on cycle and have no dedication. You lie about what you take....your full of shit.

    So you dont like the way we are, then stay out of this thread, you have had your chances. Keep running your mouth in here and you will learn that in fact this forum is a privileged. Human nature to not appreciate something until its gone.
    Please say more...im almost there...im almost comming....and it aint going to be weak...ah ahh ahhhh....man my clomid works

    I go straight to the gym after work, so i checked my emails and the fvcking retarded cvnts said on the tracking that it was signed for at 10.19 am. Then! that it was going to be delivered the mora as they could not get anyone in.
    Awwww ya fvcker i was fvcking boiling so rapid session so i could get home to phone them and i used the anger well haha.

    So, i phoned the fvckers and i explained to the wee guy what the score was. He went and checked, the retarded cvnt delivered it to the wrong house fvck knows where and was going to deliver it the mora as the driver got the parcel back, but that's no fvcking use to me we both work we won't be in.
    So i explained this to the wee guy on the phone, i said look what part of this do you not get eh i paid for a specific day (wed) the day!! as the mrs would be in the mora is no use. Tit anyway told them to refund fvcking hopless cvnts.

    Rant over
    Dang, I hate that for you, Clarky. It seems that about every fourth or fifth package of any kind that In get goes tits up. Delivered to wrong addy, "unexpected delay", etc.
    Nice intense back session!

    And how the FVCK do you have a decent hairline??! I'm kinda pissed about that.

    On another note..Thought I'd share this:

    The wife finally decided to get off her ass. So of course she can't see her way clear to do anything I suggest. So she has roped in one of her girlfriends to working out with her. This prompts her friend to suggest that her husband should train with me.... So I agree because I am (as you guys are) an advocate of self improvement and I always want everyone to exercise.
    However... At the beginning I'm quietly reluctant. He's a good dude, but I'm not looking forward to plowing through all his previous experiences and training ideas.

    Mind you, I train in my basement. It's not the lap of luxury, but my shit is nice and there is plenty there to get the job done.

    So he shows up. He has not trained in five years. Thankfully he is super cool and basically puts me in the driver's seat by wanting to train exactly as I do. I'm thinking: Oh boy.. and begin to explain HIT while we warm up and get some weight on the bar.

    It's clear that he doesn't understand at first...but who does, right? So we start working through flat bench. I keep adding weight on him and he's objecting.. I'm being nice and explain that we will be increasing weight and lowering reps in a rapid fashion.
    I can tell on the last working sets that he might think that I'm just trying to make him look weak when I spot him and force reps.

    The whole time I'm telling him that it's all about maximum effort and failure. It's not until the drop sets that he stands up and goes "wow man".."i really like this!" "it really hits"

    I was stunned. It clicked for him, bigtime.
    We moved on through incline and dumbell flat..
    Fast forward to incline flies (last exercise) He's a sloppy mess, no control, wasted. I tell him that's it, we're done. No 2 hour workout, no reps to infinity.. Just failure and beyond: Every movement, tear tissue.
    He's smiling, shaking his head and says something to the tune of "simple and effective" while he rubs his chest.

    So he's all in, all about failure, and super motivated to find the correct weight for the needed rep range. He quickly realized that I was doing a lot of computing to try to figure out where he needed to be weight wise for each exercise.

    did I mention that for the last ten years I have trained alone? Guess what...Now I have a spotter and can actually do negatives and push it just a little harder. By last friday I was seriously considering taking a week off to let some shit heal! lol

    And here I was at the beginning thinking that I'd have him run off in two days!

    That's f-in great and kudos to you for taking the time to teach him! You also have someone to help you strip plates now. I lift alone like Kel, you, and others, and stripping the plates gets to be a PITA, necessary of course, but when you're totally spent it can be a daunting task.

    Dang, you guys have been busy today! Jumping into another breakdown at work. Feeling better today and looking forward to the pullback.
    Excellent pics you guys are posting! Motivates me to work on my BF and digging deep at my lifting. At least my TRT is now at a reasonable level, things are happening. Not as fast as if I were running true cycles instead of my moderate blasts, but I'm digging away at it.
    Again, really great work guys.

    Oops, forgot to post my Hct is creeping up on me again and Hgb is still over the upper end of the range. However, I can donate in 2 weeks so I'll go that route. Probably going to have to be a whole blood, I think my Hgb is going to be too high to allow a double RBC. Wish they had kept their old machine for double RBC.


    Legs are very sore today considering the shortened session yesterday, so things are good.

    If it's supplementing with grapefruit, I tried, but it didn't help me much ( The link seems to go to a deleted page)? Thanks for mentioning it, though. It's related to a genetic issue.

    Edit: I got it to work, the extra http was throwing me off. I tried eating grapefruit daily, but their study used extract and that may be the difference?

    The effect on hematocrits of adding grapefruit to the daily diet was determined using 36 human subjects (12 F, 24 M) over a 42-day study. The hematocrits ranged from 36.5 to 55.8% at the start and 38.8% to 49.2% at the end of the study.

    There was no significant difference between ingesting 1/2 or 1 grapefruit per day but a decrease in hematocrit due to ingestion of grapefruit was statistically significant at the p less than 0.01 level.


    I interpret this as using a grapefruit would do the trix also.

    Perhaps when its genetic related it doesnt work.

    Possibly. Appreciate the info anyway. The wife has been asking me to pick up some pink grapefruit for her so I may give it another try.

    Great story ender and the forced into negatives now you got a partner is going to really hurt and dig deep into your fibers, its by far the best way I grow but you do need someone who knows what they doing for the transition from forced to negatives.. Lets us know how you get on

    id get the most out of it by training something he's good at. Soaking up his knowledge of strongman lifts.

    Anyway, all I was doing is having a bit of fun. If I offended you in anyway when you first come on or now I am truly sorry. I am a strange English gent with an even stranger sense of humour, I have to if you knew me personally so please don't get upset its all fun my friend.

    We are a set of unique people in here, we are hardcore, we want to learn form each other, we motivate and help one and other. We are HIT'ers that's what we do here none of us are playing around we live and breath this lifestyle and I can honestly say I have some close friends here, I know all the internet shit but I do feel I have some close friends who I could go and meet and we would hit it off straight away and be like brothers. That's why when someone attacks us its like a domino effect.

    Just chill Sil I mean no harm your a big guy there ive said it is that what you wanted. I will take my tea and scone and place them up my arse hole while wanking with my gimp socks on over your photos.

    I have nothing against you and I'd rather just leave it now and let the thread flow - 3 cheers and all that Sil
