want someone to wash your back?

What? There’s nothing wrong with that.

My lifting isn’t that damned stressful and never has been…especially up to this point.

Why the hell are you eating so strictly as to cause stress when gaining as a beginner or intermediate?

I ate foods I liked and a lot of them to get big. I may be more strict now but that is because I already built the “raw mass” and now need to refine it.

Most of you who act like you are only eating chicken breasts and rice need to wake the fuck up. It isn’t like Johnnie Jackson is avoiding pizza in the off season.

^ I both LOL’d and Agree completely

If its that serious, switch your program, or set a goal for yourself. Compete in something the complements your lifting. But how can you be tired if you haven’t accomplished anything, even if its just for yourself.

^ thats good advice. I never got tired of lifting, but when i scheduled a powerlifting meet my whole training felt refreshed

I got tired because the lack of results (not imba results, but any) due bad genetics (and don’t even thing about saying thet it means shit). I gain lean mass hard, and I gain fat easy. I strip the fat easy, but I also strip the muscle easy as well. As I said - strict diet (+ few experiments over the past 2.5 years) and no training programs for level beyond intermediate or beginner.

Two and a half years of chicken breast, rice, no alcohol, no sweets and foods considered “junk”, I never overtrain, I never followed a program beyond my level of development and I still look like this:

A few things are possible.

  1. You started out weighing 400 lbs
  2. You have 0% training intensity
  3. Your diet is far worse/less consistent than you seem to think it is
  4. You have been so afraid of overtraining (as if more than 1% of lifters deal with this) that you’re severely undertrained
  5. Your program makes Richard Simmons’ workout look well balanced

It could be a combination of these though.

After taking a second look at your name [who cares], I’m inclined to believe either [2], or TSB.

How do you train and eat, OP? Something is missing here.

well I say you should stop comparing yourself with others and do it for you. If you do it because of some social pressure to be ‘‘RIPPED’’ like in all those internet adds you wont get anywhere and if you get anywhere you’ll probably not be very happy anyway. I think

If you dont enjoy the lifestyle then dont do it anymore. Who cares?

I think its time to get away from the strict programming for a few months, and just fuckin eat some steaks, drink a few beers, go to the gym with a new attitude, and kick some ass.

Dont take it to seriously, its not like its gonna be the end of the world if you get away from your progam.

H4M’s list is solid.

Bug - luv your avatar who took that sexy pic?? olol

OP - I put on fat way easier than most and I let things get pretty bad a while back. And I fixed my shit and held onto my muscle even probably added (definitely added) some in the process. H4m and Bug can attest to this. Stop being a bitch and either quit half assing shit or just quit altogether.

The mention of overtraining strikes me as something you are worrying about, and preventing you from busting ass like you need to in the gym. With that said, another culprit could be massive amounts of stress you’re putting on yourself, leading to elevated cortisol levels which are all sorts of bad news for trying to gain good weight, or lose fat.

Haha how’d you hear abut the vids CB?

Also, Bug is gunna edit together back training clips of just me and him for a tribute to Yates type thing. Should be short and on YouTube when it’s done so you’ll be able to watch that one at least.
