You mean the part about certain “undesirables” lowering property values in his neighborhood doesn’t have a slight stench to it? You know, that part right after he mentioned how proud he is to be white (giving the term a little context)?

Yea - I noticed that too. How is the guy a racist? - what, I should WANT a criminal element of undesireable people (no matter what fucking color they are) to destroy my neighborhood and property values? And if I don’t, I’m a racist? WTF?

And wait a minute - I’m white. I’m not allowed to be proud to be white? There’s a Puerto Rican pride parade every year in NYC - they can be proud to be hispanic, but I’m a nazi if I’m proud to be white? Fucking hilarious - I’ll get right on that.

The whole “you’re a racist” every 5 fucking minutes is patently ridiculous. It’s the cheapest Internet play in the book - grasp at straws to call the guy a racist, and everyone is up in arms, even if what the guy said was, in fact, not racist in any way.

If you think he’s a jerk, fine, but stick to the subject matter at hand. Ad-hominem attacks are the last bastion of retards with no real argument to speak of. [/quote]

x2, The race card is powerful rhetoric. But when you look at it objectively thats all it is, groundless rhetoric usually void of any logical support.

… Alcohol is alcohol, no matter what you drink, its still crap calories, take that from a recovering alcoholic LOL. Stay away from it, no matter how you try and justify it…

I was just reading this thread and what does it matter how many posts someone has made, it adds nothing to training experience. It just shows the person prefers to spend a certain portion of their time on this forum posting… If anything it detracts spending time posting instead of reading or rereading some of the extremely useful articles.

Not only. The number of posts is an indirect parameter to evaluate “reputation” of the posters. Also it easy to check the kind of contribute given by a member through a post search.

Hi, I am looking for some constructive criticism. I am 5’10 and 180 pounds, my long term goal is to reach 200 pounds and keep low body fat.

If keeping your core trim is a big priority, maybe you would consider short cycles of cutting and clean bulking, while making sure the cals above maintenance are minimal while bulking.

I’m not sure what the minimum time for a cutting or bulking cycle should be, but you might want to make it 3 weeks instead of 6 weeks. Granted it would probably take a lot longer to gain lean mass. You might also want to try carb cycling withing your bulking cycle to make sure all the cals go to good use.

I can’t say for sure that this will work, it’s just food for thought.

And btw, i would rather look like the guys from worlds strongest men competitions then worry about how many lines i can count on my stomach, i weigh 308lbs and i enjoy taking up a whole aisle in my grocery store. People tend to be nice to guys my size. I take my shirt off at the pool and show off my tats and people compliment me on my physique even without the gay ass washboard stomach, which i think is overated. But i guess our goals are different so good luck to ya brother![/quote]

its funny that you make a comment about sub-200lb “stick figures”. im not sure how long youve been around here, but a guy used to post here under the name Caveman. he was 5’10" and about 199-200lbs. he was a very strong, powerful, and atheletic guy. hardly a stick figure. franco columbo, under 200lbs with his gay ass washboard stomach, and id put money that he was stronger in his prime than your 308lb self. Frank Zane. 5’9", under 200lbs and ripped, with his gay ass washboard stomach, hardly a stick figure. unless you really are as dumb as you look, i think that point has been made, so ill go on to something else…

taking a look at the pics that are in your profile (sorry, dirty little trick), you look like an average fatass american. you dont even look like you have big, thick, broad shoulders to go along with your size 46 pant waist. im sure youre under the impression that you look like a big powerful guy, but you dont. in fact, looking at you, i honestly think that you could lose pretty close to 100lbs of fat. wouldnt that be funny, for you to strip down to 8-10% bodyfat, such that youd have gay, washboard abs, and then be just about a sub-200lb stickfigure. you may laugh, or think that im just some dumbass, but take a good look at the pics in your profile. your 308lbs at 6’1" looks NOTHING like a 300lb+ Dave Tate. FAR FROM IT!

perhaps i have been harsh, but your ignorance called me to do so. meaning, its pretty ignorant to go spouting off about sub-200lb stickfigures, with gay, washboard abs, especialy when said stick figures are in waaaaay healthier than you appear to be, in every sense of the word. honestly, instead of keeping up some delusion that you are some kind of Dave Tate, you should take a page out of his book, consider those kids youve got in the photo, and maybe get a little healthier in your life so that youre around to see them grow up.

sorry to be your reality check, but you did ask for it.

You think that picture is what a 300lb fatass looks like? You may not like him but I have seen 300lb+ fatasses and they look nothing like that.

Maybe the one picture he has is a bad point of reference, but based on that one picture I’d say he definitely doesn’t have the forearms or triceps of what I’d call a powerlifter. I’ve seen a lot of powerlifters carrying lots of fat, but their chest usually overshadows their gut. In any case this thread should be about the OP. It might be a good idea to make a new thread to discuss Primalfear.

The whole point of the poor young mans thread was the fact that maybe he should take his training a lil more seriously and his drinking should probably be less of a priority.

The point of this thread is to give the guy some advice for reaching his goals - not skimming his initial post and immediately dismissing him right off the bat as being “unworthy”.

The point of this thread is not for you to jump in after the dispute more or less resolved itself simply to comment that advising him would be a “waste of breath” (though, apparently, whining ISN’T).

The point of this thread IS NOT what YOU want to look like as a lifter.

The point of this thread IS NOT for you to comment on how your tats and ginormous “physique” make bikini bottoms wet down by the poolside.

The point of this thread IS NOT for making a 21-year old kid feel like a shitbag (or is it a “lil punk”?) for wanting to retain some part of the lifestyle that comes with the age group.

He said he wants to gain 20 lbs - hardly what I would call an ambitious goal for a kid his age with his current development. Even if he wants to drink on weekends. He mentioned he is working on cleaning up his diet, so that makes it even less of a factor.

You say you are proud to be a big man - show us how big of a man you really are and just leave this fucking thread alone.

Because I’m just too damn childish to stop anytime soon.[/quote]

LoL… Good stuff i love it. Alot of the T-Nation members, just seem interested in verbally bashing on each other. I am very pleased with my appearance, and I will gain my 20 pounds I can guarantee you all that. I plan to take tribulus Starting, Monday and loading on protein and see just how quick I can get my 20 lbs.

Primalinsecurity-

you mentioned Kaz, well, it appears as though he was much closer to a washboard stomach vs. a gut.

lol primalfear… dez is fucking u up

Man, Carl has the best avatar EVER!!! : )

O.k., so when you injure a muscle there is a very good chance that you will lose strength and range of motion to adhesions, limiting your mobility and setting you up for future injury due to poor form resulting from the aforementioned conditions.

Go to an ART practitioner who also has some certs in strength and conditioning. That person can evaluate and treat you so that you can train safely and productively again.

Back to ripping on fatty-

You weigh as much, and more than most elite level powerlifters, but what do you lift?

Unless you are in the 5,6,7 range for bench, squat, and dead lift you should knock of the barking like a big dog.

Although I have made some adjustments I try to drink more liquor than beer, and have learned to cook chicken breasts and some simple foods. So I’m making an effort to improve my diet as well, and hope to continue gaining size.

I tore my hamstring, in early November, a picture is somewhere below…it got far worse than that pic though.

Gaining size to me is important but i wish to stay fast and mobile. I was able to hit a 4.5 forty before my injury, and had a 32 inch vertical leap. I’m hoping I can keep as much of my athleticism as possible while gaining muscle mass. [/quote]

Don’t pay attention to the primadonnas on this site. You look great. You look athletic. Hamstring injuries suck. I’ve been there. Mine I did years ago dong sprints in prep for a competition (Judo, Canadian National Exhibition). I injured it worse yet because I still competed. But hey, I placed 7th.

Keep up the good work.

How so, the picture is from a distance, that alone will make someone look smaller then shoving the camera a foot away from them. do his forearms look small yes and no. They don’t have that look that some powerlifters get but at the same time I have seen people pull some crazy weight with forearms that look less then that. Maybe you could ask him nicely to produce what he lifts then he can let that speak for him.

98

See, he does powerlifting so that means his lifts are what count. Hell by your definition Gene Rychlak jr. is just one big fatass with nothing to offer.

I had a friend who was 300lbs, I have seen what a 300lb fatass looks like and its not that. The picture is not the best to guess what he may or may not have.

if his looks dont “count” for him, then perhaps he shouldnt be in the ‘rate my physique’ forum spouting off about sub-200lb stickfigures.

are you holding Primal’s hand as you respond here?

also, are you crazy? are you telling me that you had a friend, a male, that was 30 something years old, was 6’1", 300lbs, and they looked nothing like this guy Primal?

maybe i should re-phrase my whole statement. Primal looks like a dude that maybe played high school football or something, then lifted off and on after high school, but started getting fat, and just kept getting fat. and he just kept feeding himself this bullshit that he was a powerlifter.

whatever. im not the one thats 308lbs and on the verge of a heart attack, yet still telling myself that its ok because im a strongman or some bullshit. wtf do i care, im a healthy, reasonably strong 5’9" 195lb stick figure.[/quote]

over 300lb person I saw was 315 to be exact and was shaped like a balloon. You are looking at the pic of a guy with a loose shirt on and at a distance. Even at a distance he doesn’t have that signature balloon shape that fat bastards have. I will speak up for any powerlifter/strongman that gets called fat by someone just because they do not share the same goals as them. Funny how you didn’t comment back to me about Big Gene.

Listen I am not talking shit about someone being under 200lbs, I could really care less about that. I have seen monsters under 200lbs and I have seen sticks under 200lbs. What I am talking about is you saying he looks like every other 300lb person which is not true. If you want to start some personal attacks I will be more then happy to make jokes about you. If you wish to continue this I will check this tomorrow.
