No no no… sometimes next week we pull Tim out of his cave. We are still working on making the program even better.
Will follow the program to the letter!
What was quoted earlier in this thread: work hard, eat a lot, repeat for years blabla… Yes, this will lead to good results. Most people struggle being consistent. But there is a difference between good results and maximum results, or optimal results.
IF you can stick to precise and physically as well as mentally demanding programs and follow them consitently, then this will lead to better results than just working out 3 times a week and drinking a lot of milk…
I went from 211 pounds to a bit more than 219 in just a bit more than a month just by following the new para-workout nutrition protocol. Which is insane, given the fact that I have been working out for 19 years. I didn’t change my training at all.
I am psyched about the “I, Bodybuilder” program and no one on earth will follow it more deliberately than me (only ties possible - smile).
T-Nation (sorry, it’s T-Muscle now) rocks. Tim, CT, TC and the rest of the gang contribute more the the t-man bodybuilding community than anyone else on this planet.

How about before the summer is over??? I’d love to go back to school with a new program.
Nah, during the bulking season, lol. Or will this be more of a “keep your bf the same gain all muscle” type program?
Here’s the BIG secret…The program involves a Professor X-bobblehead that’s with you at all meals, screaming EAT, you SKINNY little bitch! EAAAAATT!!
I thought that was a legit photo for a second there Amonero… Good job.
In the end it doesn’t matter how much cash you fork over for Biotest supps if the program don’t work it’s a no go. Whether you create a free program or a program for cost…if it don’t work you don’t get repeat customers.
It’s like personal training. I could have all the numbnuts do squats on upturned BOSU balls like all the other idiot trainers in my gym or do bi curls on the same upturned BOSU balls. If it don’t produce results you won’t keep clients.
I bang balls and crack heads in my gym. My clients work out with intensity because I force it upon them. I might be the only trainer in my gym who consisently visits the bench and squat rack with my clients or goes to the 30s and higher with my female clients (oh dear!).
Same thing here. If I,BODYBUILDER didn’t work then they wouldn’t have repeat customers. I can’t wait for it to come out just so I can read it. I’m a research whore. Granted, I’m sure it will have a Biotest protocol, you gotta pay the bills, but if it didn’t work without the supps it would be a no go. Of course it will work better with supps as anyting works better with optimized nutrition.

But can you out “ab” him ? 
Could probably out- flab him though.

I have to agree with this. Those articles are what made me join this place.
Reading about CTs own transformation and how he once thought he could never be a certain way due to genetics or because all of his family were naturally big is exactly how I used to think.
If I never came across those articles and saw what he did, and saw the kind of knowledge he has, I would have never believed that I could have achieved it.
I can hold my hands up and say that CTs knowledge and personal experience is the only reason I ever joined here.

Not completely false… the program IS precise, but not so much on the nutrition side than on the training one.
The thing is that the program whole basis is the maximization of the nervous system to stimulate as much growth as possible.
The problem is that some of the methods used are so effective in regard to priming the nervous system that its actually quite a fine line between max stimulation and CNS drain. Heck, I suffered such drain several times myself… mostly because I was progressing so well that I fell victim to the ‘‘more is better’’ mentality.
The problem is that the CNS side effects occur when you are actually progressing ‘‘too fast’’ (if that makes sense). Which is why it is in fact hazardous to those who are overachievers or lack experience.
So the reason why we delayed the publication of the program is actually due to the experimentation of several methods to regular training WHILE YOU ARE DOING IT to avoid grilling the CNS. This is called autoregulation.
The nutritional guidelines provided are actually quite simple to follow.

What kind of lifting experience (in years) do you think a trainee should have before going onto the new I,BODYBUILDER program?

Thank you for the clarification though I’m pretty sure I know it’s not coming out too soon I’d like to know when. I’m just waiting to make all the purchases so maybe I’ll start that new periworkout protocol after reading the other’s results. I’m glad that Biotest is still working to make the best thing possible that is why I,love and support these guys.
If this is more of a program than I just read should I start the periworkout protocol with everything?

Since this is speculation, I’m guessing he’s making an assertation similar to Dante (of DC fame.) He says “three years” of consistant training before DC’ing, but people take the number way too literally.
If you’re still debating between doing kickbacks or close-grip presses, I’m betting the program shouldn’t be for you. If your numbers are in the 3/4/5 region, you’d probably be okay.
Know what I mean?

Like many others on here have already mentioned, the V-Diet was also a ‘Superprogram’, and for me that meant 600 bucks, so who knows how much I, Bodybuilder will cost!
What I do know is that it won’t be cheap.
However, I have found CT’s articles to be the most helpful on this, and any other site for that matter. The attention to detail in his articles is something that I found to be lacking elsewhere, and something that I have searched for a long time.
As he is heavily involved in the program, I’m looking forward to it, and I’m sure it’s going to be very effective.

The program also doesnt NEED the peri-workout protocol. A diet rich in calories and portein will still work fine. The peri-workout nutrition juts helps to maximize the results, but it doesnt mean no results will be made without it.
