Respect is earned, not given. You have done nothing in your short time here to earn it...yet.

As i said.... i give up. Maybe replacing old values of respect with the word courteous give a clearer indication.
No matter what i say you are always gonna come back with a keyboard blow so what is the point.
My life is not bodybuilding.com nor any other forum.

[DCSpartan]

just maintaining at 155-160 as one is not interesting in putting on size!

lmao x 2

[SPJMusic]

kid, your volume is insanely low. A good BW workout is about 100 pullups, 200 pushups, and 300 situps. You do a whopping total of 33 pushups and 33 situps. Most people here do more than that as awarmup. Which is why its eaasy to call you out as a troll.

A Troll?
Mr Spartan, it is yourself who seems to be displaying the fine art of 'trolling' on this doomed thread. Its not a crossfit class. LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO.
Sorry you guys have turned me into a right sarcastic feker hahaha. I dont like what im becoming........ arrrrgggghhh Mother?????

hehe, cool i like that one, have to remember it. Made me do a little wee.
At no point have i implied that i am jacked or swole, i hate salad with a passion unless its dripping with salad cream, but i did have some pink dumbells once.

Enough of this nonsense im rather bored now. Cheers for the fun Jason, sincerely all the best to you
thumbs up ; )

The thread has nothing to do with Bane.
The topic is 'Anyone tried PNut's "Warrior Workout," used by Tom Hardy for the film' and the fairy that is me popped up and shouted 'YES I HAVE, not necessarily the 'warrior workout' bollox but i have applied the approach to bodyweight resistance because of x y & z and it worked for what i wanted it to, not what any body else expects to past their test'

....and then BAAAAAANG! A hopefully entertaining thread that can be enjoyed by all. Bonsoir, alvederzane, gazuntite, be good & farewell.

haha great, sorry sir not married, co-habiting with my partner and our 3 kids, all women as well....ooo its hell, even the cat is female.
I refer to my self as a fairy as i dont mind taking the piss out of myself and i dont mind having the piss taken out of me. Are you a closet case? No funny as it sounds i am not, but i have been suspected of it before my balls dropped.

Sorry Jason im finding it so hard not to reply. I guess i lied about being bored. I am very surprised you havent negged me yet.

So the guy who looks like an actual athlete is being told the method he used cannot possibly work even though he documented it in real time and looks the ****.

The opinion seems to vary here man. It was a mistake for me to document my findings here, but i know what works for me as i have tried it first hand.
Does not matter what other people think.

It was not a mistake to post your results. Thanks for sharing and for adding value to this thread.

[MattNasty]

Yea I don't understand why everyone is ripping this guy either. Are you accusing him of lying and actually lifting weights secretly because his body is decent? Or are you saying his body sucks and that's likely because his plan sucks?

Cuz frankly, his body looks more athletic than some of the guys bashing him. Doesn't look like he could throw a ton of weight but id rather have a guy who looks like that on my soccer or basketball team than big ol' muscular tubs. That Jason guy is kind of an arse.

Hi all,

Christ!! a lot of hostility on this thread!!! But wanted to mention my success with the tom Hardy Warrior Workout. I have ben training for many years (10+), and ahd some okay success with bodybuilding. Like most people I've tried a lot of workouts, but mainly stick to the basic lifts etc.

After breaking up with my wife and getting divorced I booked a holiday to Portugal, by myself (At this point I had also just started seeing another woman). I was away in Portugal for just over 2 weeks. It had been a hard couple of years, but the gym kept me sane. Anyway, around a month before going away I saw Warrior and like most fitness fanatics I googled his workout. A acouple of weeks before going away I started the workout. now I had been training consistently for around 2-3 years at the gym and had got fairly fit (better than average), but not huge. 6ft tall at around 190lbs at 10% bodyfat. But the Warrior workout f*****g killed me!!!. I could only manage it twice a day every other day for the first week, I upped it to 3 times a day every other day the 2nd week then went to Portgual. Whilst away I upped the workout again to 4 times a day, every other day. I ate 4-5 big meals a day, swam for 20 mins every morning and walked miles every day. I also got around 12-14 hours sleep every night!

After around 15 days away doing this workout I came back looking and feeling amazing! I have to say I was in the best shape in my life and my traps, delts and arms were bigger than they have every been. My new Girlfriend was stunned! She loved it lol.

I tried working out like this while back but with work and not being able to get enough sleep (7 hours a night on average), it was just impossible to have the energy to go on.

My muscle went down after a few months - even though I was training at the gym 3 days a week on heavy compound lifts. i wish I could have continued this workout, but it's not easy! in fact it's a killer both physically and mentally. I dreaded every workout, and 4 times a day was so hard to keep motivated to do!!

Before doing this I would have said that bodyweight training isn't that good for building mass - but I have to say it got me the best physique I've had (before that or since), and I only did it for a month or so (plus proper nutrition and sleep - the key in my opinion!).

I went back to the weights after that, but have recently gone back to this workout (slightly altered to include pullups and using a dip station). Although I wish I could get that sleep every night!

Mate, I've been on these forums a long time and I've seen a lot of deserved hostility to a lot of posters. But I can't see anything in here that warranted the response to you. Some of the replies were totally dickish and completely unnecessary. The fact that you've actually continually posted progress pics, have made considerable progress in a short time frame and posted what you have been doing deserves respect. The reality is that there are many ways to skin a cat and whilst this isn't my choice, you've obviously put the effort in and it's worked for you. Well done.

Unfortunately the BB community is notoriously dogmatic and set in its ways. Often, unless you subscribe to someone's narrow-mindedness, you'll get flamed to hell. Just ignore it.

Honestly man I agree with you. I didnt do any SS formation when starting to lift and it served me well. Sure SS is a great way to go, but it is not the only way. Seems like people forgot that other people enjoy different stuff. I only like this site for the sports forums, anything else just seems to hate filled.

[21infantry]

Looks like you ran into are resident USMC PLSGT Jason, don't know Jason all that well, but from what I have seen he is a no BS kind of guy. If those results where from the Tom Hardy whatever program than great, otherwise I kind of agree with Jason on this one, kind of smells like BS.

Attachment 4753203
to remind everyone of how Tom Hardy looked for the film.


Here’s Monroe’s description of the theory behind Hardy’s four-times daily routine:

“Throughout the day you need to send constant signals to your body, so that it adapts in the direction you point it in. It’s better to do 10 press-ups every hour than 100 in a single burst. If you do things often enough, your body adapts for the task you set it, and you evolve.”

Hardy trained when he woke up, at lunch, before dinner and before bedand took no more than 20 minutes per controlled session, focusing on form, using light weights and moving slowly.

Monroe recommends beginning with two sessions at first in the morning and evening and points out that gaining muscle quickly requires that you work out little, but oftenand that there are no shortcuts to getting ripped quickly.

The Exercises:

Press-Ups (Push-Ups)

Your first set should see your hands shoulder length apart. You should form a diamond with your forefingers and thumbs for the second set. Your third set will require you to put your hands wider than shoulder-length. Your final set will see you balling your fist and doing the press-ups on your knuckles.

Shoulder Flyes

Stand with your feet shoulder-length apart and get 8 kg(about 17 lbs) dumb bells in each hand. With your palms facing forward raise your hands 180 degrees until they meet above your head (somewhat like a snow angel movement). Lower to start position and repeat. To up the difficulty use heavier weights or stand on one leg (good luck).

Dips

Grab a chair for this one. Sit on the ground, legs in front of you with the chair behind you. Grab the seat of the chair with your hands so that your fingers pointing towards your body. Keep your back straight and push up so your backside is off the floor until your arms are extended. Lower yourself until you’re ALMOST touching the floor and you’ve completed a rep.

The Bridge

This one is a monster. There are multiple stages and if you’re not comfortable you probably shouldn’t move on to the advanced ones as it could result in a neck injury. This exercise is going to give you back flexibility, a powerful neck and a lot of core strength.

Stage 1

Lie on a mat with your feet on the ground and knees bent. You’re gonna lift your hips off the mat — bring your hands to your ears with palms on floor and fingers pointing towards your feet as you do this. You’re gonna do the 10-7-5-3 rep routine for this two. At the top during the 7 reps count to 1 second at the top, at the top during the 5 reps count to 3 seconds and at the top during the 3 reps count to 5 seconds.

Stage 2

Here’s the next stage, if you’re comfortable with stage 1. Push to the top position from stage 1. But this time, push harder. Push through your hands, lift your shoulders off the ground and allow your head to tilt back so the top of it rests on the floor. Push from your heels to your toes as well. All your weight should rest on your hands and toes, not your head. Same rep count as Stage 1.

Stage 3

When you’re comfortable with Stage 2 (AND YOUR FLEXIBILITY IS GOOD) you’re going to do the same things but allow your head to carry some weight. Start by allowing your head to carry 10% and increase as your neck flexibility increases. Do not rush this. Take your time, go slowly. Increase pressure on your head as you feel comfortable. Be careful as this could lead to a possible SEVERE neck injury if you’re not careful.

Stage 4

When you’re comfortable with Stage 3 and your flexibility is up put all your pressure on your head in the bridge position. Be sure to keep your hands near your head in case you need support. Same rep count as the rest of the Bridges.

Stage 5

This is insane, so be warned that you should only do this when Stage 4 is like drinking water. Assume the extended bridge from Stage 3 but hold a light barbell or very small dumb bells in your hands and do 5 reps at the top with the weights. Increase weight as it gets easier.

Abdominal Workout

This is gonna give you core strength and increase the size and power of your abs. Like the Bridge, start with Stage 1 and move on as you get comfortable.

Stage 1

Lie on a mat with your legs pressed together. With your hands clasped behind your head lift your head and shoulders and hold. Then tighten your abs and lift your legs. Lower to start position and repeat. 10 reps, then 7, then 5, then 3.

Stage 2

Perform Stage 1 then at the top of your position bend your knees and pull them in so they touch your elbows. Straighten your legs and lower to starting position. Same reps as Stage 1.

Stage 3

Do the same thing as Stage 1. At the top of the position pull your legs in to touch your elbows but DON’T bend your knees. Yeah, it’ll hurt. Lower legs back to start and repeat. Same reps as before.

Stage 4

Get an 8 kg kettlebell (about 17 lbs) and insert your left shoe in the handle. Wrap your right leg on top of your left leg and foot to hold it in place and do the Stage 1 exercise. Increase as needed.






So thoughts??
