    Lightbulb How do Fitness Models do it, year round?

    How do these year long fitness models, such as Lazar Angelov, Ullises Jr, Jeff Seid, Greg Plitt stay huge and shredded all year round?

    I've been searching for this answer for a long time.

    Most of time, the answer is: "If you take the same amount of gear as X, you won't look like X".

    Do they deplete their carbohydrate intake year round?

    When you take AAS, does it lower your bodyfat significantly?

    Is it possible, that they are slowly adding more compounds, over the course of 10 years, whilst only slightly increasing their caloric intake?

    Or are they all just huge steroid abusing morons, that have no self control?

    Let's discuss!

    It's like asking if aliens are real

    Each one has a special recipe that they will take with them to their grave

    A lot of sauce, GH & genetics

    Regardless of what level of pharmacology is involved ....those guys have killer genetics. This can be tough to accept when you train, eat, sleep, cycle the same as them ......but never really look like them.

    They are who they are for a reason - they are the genetically rare < no other way around it. . . How many guys have you met looking like Lazar in person? Shit, I think I'm the best shaped person I have seen around these parts. . . . There are just a select few guys at the gym that are bit above me, but not many at all.


    This type of crowd is so rare

    I agree for sure bro

    But, some people don't stand a chance. I mean some of the body shapes we see, we all know no amount of anything will change.

    I think you will be pleasantly surprised they don't look like that all year round, yeah they are probably lean but nothing like the pictures , they all stay around 10%

    The photos they upload or put up daily on there social media feeds are just old photos that they put up to make you think just that

    I follow most of the wbff pros on social media and a lot of them post actual current photos of themselves and openly admit they don't stay contest ready all year round, it comes down to the fact you simply can't, these people aren't stupid, you can't honestly think and tell yourself they walk around 12 months of the year at 5%, have you ever been at 5%? I have and in telling you it's impossible to maintain without a **** load of suffering

    The point of this is..........not to rely on pharmacology. I could care less what "they" cycle with anymore then I do Dorian or Arnold (respectively) ....why? Because I am me and only I can find out what works best me.

    Understood, Buster Brown...

    However, want the honest truth? I've never ran a cycle. It's one of my goals, for sure, to enter a body-building competition. I'm thinking of heading to Thailand, with some money saved and teaching English as a Second Language in order to achieve this goal, and document my progress...

    Not having to work 8+ hours a day helps! I'm not saying I don't have time to work out, that excuse drives me nuts! However, the ability to get in an afternoon nap to aid with recovery and get an extra hour in (mid-day) of cardio and stretch type work would sure help.

    If HGH adds muscle cells and steroids help them grow, seems like a steady back and forth with those two products would do amazing things to anyone with a good diet and work ethic?! I know I don't have the money or help with good pharma.sources for that.

    Personally I think genetics are overplayed, I get they help and play a role, but I hear that term used as an excuse quite a bit and it annoys me. The term genetics comes up in youth sports a lot. as I make my own personal gains (currently slightly above average joe status), I've actually seen my son get more attention from coaches (and heard comments) who've determined he's got an advantage over "child B" because his "growth potential" (basing it off of me). So, if I put on 50# of fat does that mean my son has less genetic potential than if I stay on the path I'm on?
    Now, I can tell you that my children are a big motivation for me in the gym. I feel my gains will make theirs easier to achieve, not cause I'm changing their genetic make up, but because I'm giving them confidence and maybe even an expectation of matching my gains.
    Sorry for the side tangent!

    80% genetics

    the rest is blood sweat and tears.

    I see blokes walk in off the street, come into the gym, as newbs, and already have the right size to a certain extent. Big calves, small hips, wide shoulders. So for them, they just need to fine tune things.

    For me, I'm basically a distance runner. And it's taken me 30 years to not look like one.

    So the bottom line, wanting to look like the models on the covers of the magazines is a nice goal. But you need to keep grounded, and not pretend to be something you are not.

    If you are narrow at the shoulder, and have large hips, no amount of lifting or AAS will change that. You are what you are.

    A better goal is one of continuous improvement. This is a goal you can live with.

    And if you are one of the lucky few that do have good genetics, lucky you!

    I don't think its genetics at all, you can't honestly say they are all genetically gifed .

    To look that way you need to train for that look, stop doing exercises that make you look thick; focus on your shoulders and upper chest and upper back, leave the lower back out of it to make yor waist seem as small as possible, these are the tips I give people who are thinking of doing physique .

    A perfect example is Jason poston, came top 5 at the Olympia for physique , I have a photo I'll upload that he posted a while a go of his transformation, he wasn't geneticly gifted, he wanted something so he trained for the look, guys amazing.

    Oh I do, but geez I would love me even more if I looked like Lazar.

    The Internet celebrity people use to get to me. Until I found out that half are photo shopped & other half use more drugs in a week than I do in a year.

    Shit, man - why shouldn't I love myself - I use to look like garbage & I work hella hard not to.

    Or it means your intestines are not working, bile is backing up or you have a tumor blocking your bowels or you have pancreatic cancer and it's destroying your digestive system.

    All pleasant thoughts. lol
