    Chris Hemsworth (Thor) bulking regime

    I heard an interview and read that THOR's regime consited of 8 weeks worth of bulking and 4 of cutting? i understand he had noob gains as well but would this fat control be a good idea to apply?

    or would a 4 week bulk 2 week cut be as "effective" ?

    brainstorm people !

    It sounds like sort of a pussy way to bulk if you ask me. If you're bulking so fast that you need to cut after only 4 weeks urdoinitwrong.jpg.

    Unless you're a movie star or a fitness model with a deadline I don't see the point.

    I would try a lean gains style recomp where you have an energy surplus on lifting days and deficit on off days before I resorted to a 4 week mini bulk. It seems like a much more sustainable lifestyle.

    please consider the fact that he probably took some sort of HGH or streroid....have you seen the before and after pics?

    match that with 8 hours a day probably of working out. If you want to do it right so it lasts the tools are all here

    precisely what im doing at the moment, just thought id take a small "damage control" week once i hit 20% bf again hehee and wondering if it would be realistic as 4 weeks of dieting does not sound to be all that... helpful.

    im a lot more inclined to think he had nub gains on his side as he put on 20 lbs in 6 months thats 3.3 lbs a month average (at least thats what was reported) and he looked a lot more ripped than "buff" in the movie

    He was already in fair shape before he bulked for Thor I highly doubt he had a bunch of noob gains. He more then likely juiced but cant say I blame him a lot of money on the line.

    my current bulk i'm planning to end after 4.5-6 weeks and then cut for 2-4 and experiment with that a couple cycles. of course i'm doing it like that b/c i've been putting on weight probably faster than i should (still way too many sweets laying around from holidays), i don't think it should be knocked unless you've tried it though. throughout a year that ends up being like 6 months bulk and 6 months cut altogether. not the best ratio but could be worse. personal preference.

    Newbie gains certainly do not extend up to 20 lbs. no way.

    Gaining 20 lbs of muscle in 6 months to get to his size? Ummm.... EXTREMELY skeptical that is done naturally.

    That's the truth right? With much money on the line with an unknown actor, does anyone seriously believe the question, 'Are you willing to do anything to get big enough for this part?' did not come up?

    If you were going to be paid a few million would you not answer yes to that question to get the part? Yeah... you would.

    i dont think that was the case - in my opinion they couldve found better and more/less known candidates for it but as said, in the movie industry, they dont care about a little juice, i mean, see hugh jackman or christian bale, that guy from captain america (formerly from fantastic 4 ??) i bet even ryan reynolds for blade 3 - id say even gerard butler be he is still big as fuark and looks like he enjoys working out

    Barring some super freak genetics I would have to agree. That is 18-24 months of perfect diet and workout for the average guy. There certainly are people who partition more calories towards muscle than fat but they are usually pro athletes not slim actors.

    Bale went the other extreme for the Machinist. That's extremely unhealthy. (I read he ate an apple a day and that's it.) So, what's a little juice to get the job done as fast as possible? I bet this occurs in 90% of the cases where the actor needs to be big.

    funny thought how arnold slowly lost his mr. O type mass over the course of a couple decades and i bet that actually helped him attain the 'lean but still huge' action star roles he had lmao. the only MF'er to have so much muscle at the beginning that as he tapered off he was STILL the posterboy for big muscles and action.

    sorry Arnie was my idol since the age of 2 (no joke i was watching T1 and T2 at that age and loving it) so it just made me think of that

    I read somewhere that Arnold purposely lost mass so his physique would appeal to more diverse movie roles.

    I wouldn't doubt that Chris Hemsworth took steroids and HGH to gain so much mass in a short amount of time. Don't forget that Thor was also a movie and not all muscles are necessarily real. I remember a Boost Mobile commercial from long ago where they put Travis Barker in a muscle suit.
