Just about everyone in this thread is a moron. You jackasses talk about these guys as if everything they've done isn't hard and that you could look better than them. Bodybuilders talk ****, people talk ****.
Oh and guy arguing with Gregory or whatever. Two things.. Terrible back you have there.. Your shoulders swallow your arms and take all the attention off your back. Secondly, your logic is so bad it gives me a headache.B.S. in Nutrition and Food Science

It's pretty funny how you've managed to get a personal insult in almost everyone of your posts..."idiot" "dense" "dumbass" "meathead." I checked your recent posts and not surprisingly they are also filled with personal insults at other members. No need to be so infuriated on a message board, I hope you can find some happiness in 2013.

You can train heavy and intense, you can train lighter than heavy (whatever you think heavy is because its relative) and its also possible to train intense with light weight, but what works? Light weight isnt going to produce growth because size is a product of strength, and a light weight is by definition too light because its light for you. I tried 'light' DB curls because everyone said it works, it was intense training, it really hurt, felt amazing but i didnt grow at all, the weight was too light. Weight is definitely important. You need to lift relatively heavy weight to stimulate growth, but its 'how' you lift that determines intensity.

Agreed. Wolf is impressive....but not. He'll never be more than a 5th place O competitor. Good....not great.
It's not so much training light or training heavy. The old guys had it right (imo), pyramiding up to something relatively heavy, but giving the 15,12 and 10 rep sets effort before hitting the 8 and 6 rep sets.
Or just making it simple and do your 3-5 sets and fail/struggle each set between 8-12 reps.
Now there is something to be benefitted by finishing one of the above with a bat**** crazy hard high rep burnout. Like a 50 rep empty BB curl. Burn baby burn.

I train HIT but i dont disagree with you. For me training with a light weight would be curling a weight i can easily warm up with, for a set of 20 to failure squeezing hard and slow negatives and all that sh*t, it would be intense. However That wont work because my muscle is too strong despite making myself fail. Now if i did that exercise last so im pre exhausted that weight is no longer 'light' and it will work. Thats my point.

Ah come on its just an interview, you know these guys have to say **** once in a while, plus its true, Phil and Kai both have insane genetics but Ronnie is still in his own class. Phil may get huge and time will tell, but I just dont see anyone with the genetics and/or frame capacity that Ronnie had, he has it all, decent height, wide, symmetrical (before injury), aesthetic, Ronnie is going to be the top dog for a long time....Its also unfair to compare his prime to current Heath though, wait till Heath is 40, then they can make a comparison....

Let's compare Ronnie to today's era. Ronnie was a lot bigger than most of his competitors. Ronnie was probably the hardest conditioned and dryest competitor in his time against other guys. Ronnie trained like a powerlifter but in bodybuilding fashion. He was winning titles past 35 years old with ease. Ronnie is and was one of the most humble cats in bodybuilding. He is a true Mr. Olympia. Why the hell wouldn't he be able to speak **** about this generation?
