A pro bodybuilder - Everything you see in the magazines, the lifestyle's portrayed, it's all a lie.

Can you live a good life as a pro bodybuilder, be a decent person, not become a raped slave by the industry? Yes, but it's very hard for most. But with a name like CaptainSuperAwesome I would think you could do anything, lol! I wish I had made that my screen name.

7:00AM - Wake up, drink 2 scoops of BCAA's, pin 5iu GH, take 50mcg t3

7:30AM - pin 10iu humalog IM, eat 60g whey isolate, 2 cups oats, 1 cup strawberries

9:30AM - pin 100mg injectable dbol , 100mg TNE, 15iu humulin-R subq, eat 1 cup oats, 2 cups egg whites

10:30 AM - 40g whey isolate, 75g carb powder

11:00AM - train while drinking gatorade mixed with 20g whey isolate, 50g carb powder, 2 scoops BCAA's, 10g creatine

12:00PM - done training, immediately inject 10iu GH IM or IV (i hate doing it IV so sometimes i just ***** out and do it IM lol)

12:30PM - 10iu humalog IM with my post workout shake of 80g whey isolate, 100g carb powder

2:30PM - 8oz chicken breast, 2 cups grits or white rice

5:00PM - up to 16oz of chicken/turkey breast with a sweet potato (basically by this point in the day my stomach is crazy distended and i want to puke my guts out from the amount of food so i will put out about a pound of chicken or turkey and try to eat as much of it as possible without vomiting. then i eat the sweet potato when i hit a wall with the protein).

8:00pm - about 10-12oz of steak, usually flank or top sirloin. i dont really weigh it just basically again i buy a pound and eat however much i can stomach.

9:00PM - do my gear injections, depends what im running but if its a standard offseason i usually run a few grams of test deca and eq. I actually prefer to do all my long ester shots on mondays and thursdays which can be annoying because it can be 6-9cc's in a day depending on the gear im running and the mg/ml but heres a general idea...
3cc test cyp 300 in right glute
3cc deca 300 in left glute
3cc eq 300 right quad
3cc test e 300 left quad

then on Thursday for example i might do 5cc's in each VG again just depends what im running but i usually do my long esters like this

10:30PM - 60g whey isolate blended with a few scoops of ice cream and 2 tablespoons peanut butter

11:30PM right before going to sleep 5iu GH subq

when i wake up in the middle of the night to go piss ill pin another 5iu GH subq

thats pretty much an average offseason day for me. i try to eat pretty clean and get almost all my calories from good foods. this keeps me pretty lean so i only really need about 10 weeks to get really shredded for a contest. i have a cheat meal once a week usually for dinner on sunday but even then its nothing too crazy. if i go to crazy on the cheat meals and have like a whole pizza the sodium will make me hold too much water and make my blood pressure go through the roof. the last time i ate a whole pizza as a cheat meal i almost had to go to the hospital the next day because of my blood pressure. i thought my head was going to explode. i only eat steak once or twice per week for dinner i dont eat tons of red meat because my cholestrol levels are already pretty I need to read the rules post.I need to read the rules post.I need to read the rules post.I need to read the rules post.ed from the gear. people need to know that getting huge is just about being consistent. take a lot of gear eat a lot of clean food train hard and dont stop for years and youll end up huge everything else is genetics which is out of your control anyway.

this seems pretty spot on. except normally not as many shakes more chicken. also no igf1 use. a little low on gh dosage and insulin . but everything else looks right.

do you know who wrote this?

**Ctits23** · 11-17-2013, 12:03 AM

probably an older era guy. probably 90's to early 00's guy. maybe like tom prince

Update on my comment about adding more protein to my diet via shakes. I did that for 2 months. Cost too much and I didn't notice any change. DCI was right, although I was not replacing food with shakes intentionally my appetite for solid food seemed to get eclipsed by the powdered meals so in the end the outcome was the same.

I ran OUT of whey so I've been drinking just a half gallon of milk instead for the past 4 weeks but I've got a shit ton of other variables going on right now too so can't say how much a factor added 90g of whey protein is per day vs just milk.

Either way, I ordered more whey and going back to two 16oz whey shakes per day made with milk, not water. Roughly 120g daily. I get good results from that. Leave 5 or 6 shakes per day to the pros is my conclusion.

**Ctits23** · 11-17-2013, 12:11 AM

this guy also has bp problems so chicken bad for his blood pressure. could be the reason for soo many shakes. a normal person could not take shakes like this. it only works because of the hormones he takes.

shakes are pure waste garbage. unless your taking 20 iu's of gh, insulin , and grams of gear then of course without a doubt shakes arent going to work for you. its misleading just go back to regular meals. if your taking as many hormones as this guy then go ahead

as you can hear from CT (Craig Titus) straight from the horses mouth. supplements dont work without gear.

**skindiesel** · 11-17-2013, 09:18 AM

Training and diet huh? Looks like if this is real gear and protein and carb drinks with a lil training is way to do it

**Far from massive** · 11-17-2013, 02:43 PM

You know after rereading this post it does not seem that bad other than the slin, I don't know if I am totally buying that part? The rest of it... other than the cost, seems within reason.
Drugs (sadly) I have done near that level, food does not seem that out of control. I can't speak on the growth, since I have never run near that much due to cost. However all the slin am with no simple sugars would definitely push me over the edge.

Waking and taking 10IU's of Humalog then the T3 and then another 15 of humalin (albeit intramuscular) all without some simple sugars till an hour afterward would definitely not work for me.

That said I am not 30 yrs old and 6'3" and 305 with 8% bf off season so maybe that plays into it

. All I know is I would really love for one of these posts on Pro's routines to actually be verifiable.

Shakes are just protein, there's nothing special about them but they're still food. There are guys out there who absolutely have to have a lot of shakes or there's no way on earth they'd ever get their calories in. Most guys? Of course not.

Kelkel: Holy Cow!!!!!!!!! I never in my life dreamed that. Never, never, never. Kel, you told me to cut back and I will. I am. But I never dreamed what you said in your post. I might admire you and what you look like, but I am not going to even begin doing that to myself. Not even close. I sure like your avatar though. If I didn't have a wife who looked a lot like that I would be asking you who she is.

**Horsemnn** · 12-08-2013, 04:26 AM

And here I am concerned about getting from 165 down to 155.

**NaturalUN** · 02-07-2014, 01:16 PM

You've got to really admire these guys, that's such a tight schedule to go by for years and decades like they do. Upmost respect, that's a lot of injecting man, I couldn't imagine doing all that gear!

**MIKE_XXL** · 02-11-2014, 09:20 PM

Supplements do work, but they are "supplements", their function is to supplement already solid exercise program, diet and sleeping pattern...until you have most of the puzzle pieces in the right place you will get minimum results at best....

He's not the only one. If you've seen the Jay Cutler Living Large video series then at one point he mentions the fact he only sleeps for 5 hours a night. Bit less than than the 8 hours minimum most people recommend...

**kelkel** · 02-14-2014, 06:09 PM

Their CNS is pretty much stimulated all the time....

Thanks for posting, kel.

I get so distracted by your avatar when you post, austinite... so amazing.

**newfiebullet** · 03-12-2014, 02:49 AM

unfortunately he got it mixed up, eating 2 hours after Humalog , and eating 1 hour after humalin, it should be the other way around to match its peak time.

**Tanner Chambers** · 04-17-2014, 09:43 PM

Wow, thats one expensive day. I suppose with your pro card, money isn't an issue though. Good read!

Having a pro card pays you a grand total of $0.00 per year. Of all the pro bodybuilders, only a few make what anyone would call a good living. Most of your top 20-30 make $100,000-$150,000 per year at best. But their cost of living, gear, food, the way they have to present themselves, etc. eats it all up. That's why most bodybuilders are broke when they retire. Sure, you have a few guys out there, the biggest names that make a chunk, but we're only talking about a handful of guys. I assure you, there is absolutely nothing glamorous about being a pro bodybuilder. Most pro bodybuilders, those that earn an IFBB card, never make a dime.

Sad considering the amount of effort that goes into it....
