Agreed. There is a coach I like that always says something like, "diet and eating is 97% of the equation. You can't out train bad eating, and you cant out eat bad training."
To me, training is the most important part, it is the trigger, nothing happens without it. Then comes diet, if your body doesn't have the right ingredients to build muscle, it can't do it. Then gear, which just makes the first two steps more efficient

The top body builders in the world don't even coach them selves. It's hard. Your mind gets fucked up and starts second guessing yourself and changing things up from the original. They know what to do, but they get to that point, and need a trainer to keep them on track

You’re right about the genetic factors, i could compete in mens physique very easily without much AAS.... but then again its physique not really a huge challenge for someone in decent shape. Now classic bodybuilding, thats what takes time and effort i mean if you at least want to place...

the best bodybuilders have several things in common.. one of those things is that they can move the iron efficiently and with plenty of intensity and connect with the muscle they are training..
we struggle to bench 315 for a couple reps with power lifter form .. these guys are repping out 405 isolating just their pecs. and they can all get together and train and generally use the same weight. if they move up to 160 pound dumbbells, they are all using that weight.
that doesn't just happen. its not a coincidence . its not diet or drugs. its from their dedication and commitment to the iron and their years loving it and kicking its ass. its from not ever missing a gym session.
training is key. its everything. now sure I get paid to write peoples diets and diet is very important. but in all honesty, training is where this all comes to fruition. without it your nothing.
and I'm talking about proper training. knowing how to train. the reason you've been going to the same gym for 3 years and everyone in that gym looks exactly the same since 3 years ago is because they don't know HOW to train. so when I say 'training is key' I'm only talking about proper training, not working out at a gym

Thats called 'non-responder' and known in literature too, I can send you studies
Another thing:
Does someone here tried Myostatin Inhibitors ?
Stuff line YK 01 or ACE
There are rumors that Big Ramy got so big because they developed a special version of ACE-031... but could be bro BS too, dunno...

A very very good post. Training is in fact everything. Mind muscle connection/ muscle isolation... you either know how or you dont.
Fuck a perfect example today i was doing back , two skinny ass kids on the rowing machine thinking they are macho bc they were moving four plates. I guaran fuckin tee you this time next year they will look the fucking same if they even manage to stay in the gym that long.
Did it ever occur to them im literally twice their size doing the same weight?? Drop the fuckin weight and stop doing stupid shit to try and look impressive in the gym. Your godamn physique is what matters unless your a powerlifter and you dgaf ...
Point being focus on the damn muscle youre working. If its lats focus the movement on the lats...chest...biceps... so on. Training is everything I totally agree you cant substitute hard fucking work done correctly!!

So a little bit of a noob question here
How much do you guys budget for;
Gear
Food
Supplements
Anything I'm missing
And to make it simple maybe just on a monthly basis?
My though was somewhere near 1000 for everything?

Gear? 150 ish per month
Gym-30 per month
Rest-free
Supplements-100 ish per month
Food- Alot bc i eat out alot if i were on a strict diet then much less, here at sams you can buy 5lb white rice for 5 bucks and 10lb of chicken breast for $10...eggs are 3$ for 5 dozen...cheap whole foods but if i had to guess $500 bucks or so but I honestly have no clue never budgeted

imo, myostatin inhibitors are completely unnecessary. myostatin is not as limiting of a factor as people make it out to be , if it was then we'd never of had a Ronnie Coleman, Nasser, Marcus Ruhl, etc.. all 300+ pound bodybuilders who had no myostatin inhibitors.. we can get huge without them as proof by these guys. do we really need to be any bigger then Ronnie ? he used proper training, food, proper AAS, HGH and insulin . that combo works fine

a bottle of r type insulin that will last about 3 months is generally $23 at Walmart . its the cheapest of anything and everything we take, but one of the most potent

That’s a great point GH about coaches. I can’t think of one great coach in pro sports that was a great player. Most were ok at best. Shit look at magic Johnson. Arguably the greatest basketball player ever and couldn’t coach a winning team or even close. Now Phil Jackson on the other hand was a bench warmer mostly yet took 2 differetn teams to multiple championships!

Getting big isn't hard. You need to eat and use progressive overload getting as strong as possible.

How to get HUGE
Yes was wondering same thing? The dedication it takes imo is quite amazing, if it were easy there would be a LOT more people walking around like this. A huge factor I am only beginning to understand are the limitations of digestion in the process of this.
Also something mentioned previously about muscle mind connection and such. While I do believe it is a very important aspect, most mass monsters speak highly of focusing on heavy compound movements. Not that focusing on certain muscle recruitments (ques) here can’t help it’s nothing like say a tricep pushdown (where mind muscle connection would be much more focused on an individual muscle group). At the end of the day an exercise like an OHP would likely yield more tricep and total growth than jacking around with cable machines and such. A lot can be said for maximizing your time spent lifting. The big compound movements are hard by their very nature however are likely way more effective at total systemic growth than a bunch of auxiliary exercises.

It's going to vary greatly. Someone eating grass fed steak off a local farm is going to have a higher grocery bill than someone buying costco chicken pumped full of water and estrogen.
Different levels of quality of supplements too. Walmart / GNC / big box store vs High quality
Pharma prescription gear vs UGL vs Homebrew
Personally, I'm a minimalist - I invest in my body rather than buying a TV, hugo boss clothing, or fancy furniture.
John Meadows has bulking on a budget video that is excellent. On the flip side you have people like Evan Centopani who eat only non-GMO, organic, wild caught, etc. It's the difference between $300 on food versus $800+I no longer check my inbox. If you PM me I will not reply.

Everyone is different too. Getting big some some is easy, getting lean for others is easy. I can shed weight like nobodies business, but make me gain weight? Sure, but I still look like a 10 year old because I'm over 6 foot. I need at least 280 pounds on my frame to look "big". Big is a short mans game.

People also forget about a true budget for this life - if you are fully committed.
AAS
HGH
SLIN
SARMS
SERMS
Needles (sometimes 10 shots a day depending on what you're doing)
Alcohol pads
cotton balls
blood sugar checker (lances and strips too)
Blood work every 10-15 weeks
Food 6x a day minimum
Gym Membership
Need some clothes for gym too some days (fuck it obs prob goes naked - be like him)
Gas money
Vehicle wear and tear
Headphones
Music sub (unless u want ads you masochist)
Vitamins
pre workout
EAAs
Carb powders
Protein powders
gym acc (belt - straps, etc)
I'm sure I am missing something, but if you break all that down it adds up far more than others think about. Sure, some of these are super cheap, but it is still an expense. Compare this to a couch potato and they require none of these except some shitty food which they eat 1-2x a day.
