    It's works for some, but not the non drug user average lifter

    Wish it was that simple. It can't be denied that most of the stars trained in this fashion and used lots of pyramiding with their sets. However, the steriods, i.e. dianabol chiefly, enabled these...

    Who will ever know?

    I'm convinced that the big pros will keep their secrets. Few will tell you outright how they trained and few admit to drug use. It is politically incorrect now and therefore dangerous to their...

    I'd rather look like Arnold, of course..

    If anyone thinks the guy on the left represents progress in bodybuilding since Arnold, I think they should reconsider their standard of measurement. Look at the legs on that guy and the thick...
  • Check the pump...

    Some folks might not agree, but I want to pass on my experience. Do your set and shake out, flex it off and on, take deep breathes and begin thinking about that next set. When you feel the muscle...
  • Glad you said that...

    Amen! Wish bodybuilding would go back to that standard.

    How many of you expect to look this good at 70?

    Man, he still has arms bigger than 90% of the folks on here! It gets harder to loose fat as you get older and you can't afford to juice too much because your prostate is ripe to produce cancer. ...

    focus more on the muscle and cut the sets

    If you have been overtraining you are probably doing too many sets. 4 to 6 sets per bodypart works. Focus on the muscles being worked and use the progressive principal. It doesn't take a boatload...

  • Very possible

    Just get a plan together and eat a reasonable diet. Work at getting off the weight as you priority for the first few months then switch to muscle building. Don't fall for the bulking up stuff...

    I have copies of the old Ironman articles

    Well, if throwing up makes a person feel like more of a man....I don't need it to be big. In the old ironman magazines Arthur Jones set forth his training principles. I guess he was the original...
  • Now that makes sense...

    Yeap, nobody can argue with results--no matter how you got them! I can get results on just about any "program" but to me, it's not the program, it's what you bring to the program. I have had...

    Smart man

    Arthur Jones was a refreshing voice to bodybuilding. He tried to tell the truth, and yes, he was promoting the new natilus equipment. To me, he was pretty much down the middle; however, I don't...
  • Don't be so hard on yourself...

    You are doing good. Are you sure this is only 1900 calories? I admire your discipline. Keep on going. You can look in the mirror and observe your progress. Pictures speak volumes; so, take your...

    Careful with the eating like a horse.

    Everybody is different. Be very careful with increasing your calories too much. Some folks can get away it and others can't. Experience talking here. I'm glad to see everyone hiped up on this new...

    There's another big factor here affecting rounded shoulders...

    The trend for the past 20 or so years has been to overdevelop the TRAPS. Early bodybuilders avoided stressing the muscles at the base of the neck because it took away from the wide shouldered look...

    No disrespect intended, but prove it.

    I agree. This is the peak.

    Wow, look at the bulk and size and everything is just the case for the muscleman physique. Like the old Miller commerical, "it doesn't get any better than this." Arnold still inspires me!
