What do u think the maximum amount of lean body mass (pure muscle) that one can gain in a year of natural training (no steroids )
I mean full on training with supplements

8lbs of Muscle in 2 Months (Natty)

it depends on what level u are... and many other things.. There is actually a formula that counts the most possible muscle mass a person can put on average naturally. It was done by some university and it was well reasoned but Im not gonna say its the absoulte truth.. they had some good reasonings for their theory (cant remember it anymore, i read iot 2 years ago). at the time i was 260 lbs, natural and for my BF% (u need ot put several factors in the formula) it proved out to be pretty accurate.. never gained a lot over my theoretical limit.. no matter what i did... also seem to be dropping back to it after some time off gear... I know its not to be taken too serious but it was interesting anyhow..
