Agreed about the supplements. Probably just saved them all up for when he decides to “cut” and bulk.

Yeah but the guy is young, how many people that young are THAT good at time management balancing all those things he was trying to do? Young and full of beans, enthusiastic to achieve this and that and the other, not yet fully realising the massive amount of effort it all takes.
I never really thought he looked like an ecto… or much of a challenge at all really. Am I right in assuming he gets all the supplements and now plans to DIET to see his abs??? what the???
Someone needs to get Wannabebig in the contest, but he ain’t in the USA so can’t do it.
I think the PC is a great idea though and hopefully will help a lot of people.[/quote]
I’m only a year older than this guy, with basically the same education goals, a full time job, AND a two year old. He could’ve done it.
It just bothers me that in one of his previous posts, before bitching out, Bizarre defends his lack of posting and says that, and I am paraphrasing, he doesn’t fail, he always succeeds and as such will also succeed in this endeavor.
Either he was bullshitting us, himself, or both… he didn’t even put in a full effort. We can’t succeed in everything we do in life, but we can at least try to succeed. He didn’t try.
My friends father, who is fairly successful once said, while we were drinking beer, he said “sometimes in life you will find that even though you try your best, you give it 100%, is still isn’t enough. That’s life. And the point is to always try your best.” But Bizarre didn’t even make an attempt.
But on the other hand I feel sorry for the guy, because his actions were fairly pussy… and I would hate to be a pussy. And since he is such a pussy he also probably doesn’t get much pussy, so all in all his life is probably pretty crumby. I would hate to live with out an ample supply of pussy outside of myself, being the biggest pussy (which I am not, but Bizarre is). Get my point?
I’m not trying to place judgement on him, I just don’t buy the not enough time line. If it was “i’m not strong enough for this”, “my time with my friends comes first”, “this is taking up my only free time and i dont like it” those are all things that makes more sense. But “I don’t have enough time” just isn’t real to me.
It’s also possible (thought, admittedly, unlikely) that he realized he was nothing but a cat’s paw.
In summary:
You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make it drink it.
It takes a big man to talk trash about someone who isn’t here.

Hello, big man.
Well he said he’s got a medical condition. HE might be lying but he might be telling the truth. Like i have an injured back and if I got into a clinic and lie about my back but then when i’d have to do deadlifts i wouldn’t be able to. So at certain point i’d have to confess and be kicked out.
But this whole thing is relying on the participants having INTEGRITY and HONESTY.
You don’t know that someone is following their diet and workouts exactly… you are having to rely on them telling the truth.
In my opinion, not disclosing information is just as bad as lying. If you have some medical condition that affects weightlifting and is so serious that you can’t manage even 5 weeks of a program, then it should damn well have been disclosed BEFORE he enrolled, wasted everyone’s time and was sent $1000 worth of free stuff!
man i cant wait till Surge Workout Fuel comes out…
Holy shit, I couldn’t believe this thread was still going.
As the rightful heir to the ecto thrown, I was able to read these last couple pages of posts w/ a new set of eyes.
I believe I was just like bizarre when I applied for the PC as well. I had no fuckin’ idea just how much hard work it would be to be a part of this program.
Now that I’m in it, its a shit-ton of work. More so than I ever thought. I’ve eaten big before, and did some heavy compound lifting when following Dr. Berardi’s Scrawny to Brawny, so I thought I had all the tools to succeed. Additionally, I’m used to hardship. I was in combat communications for six years and deployed everywhere under the sun with hardly any food/shelter/water.
With that said, this program that Coaches Thibs and Shug got me on is some hard work. Hahaha! Even I’m laughing as I read that statement after what I had just typed in the paragraph before. Way harder that I thought it would be.
Eating, preparing food, shopping for food, going to school, doing homework, taking care of my dog and myself, and all the regular shit I’ve done before this program. . .it all adds up. I think I was just lucky enough to be a part of the program just as I was entering Winter break. Its still difficult balancing the school I have now and the program, but probably not nearly as hard had it been during a regular semester.
By the time I do start Spring semester, I’m hoping I’ll be on some sort of “cruise control” by then to offset even more workload other than this PC that I’ll have to overcome.
In the end, yes, I feel like he could’ve still done it if he REALLY wanted it. I gotta admit, I came close to THINKING about quitting during that FIRST week. FIRST WEEK! But I slapped myself in the face and literally told myself to get my shit together. This is like winning the lottery, and I was thinking about throwing it all away. Its also guys like you coming to my thread to pick me up when I’m down, and to encourage me when I’m not getting the results I thought I should be.
I’m just rounding out my second week, and I’m glad I stuck it out. I have a LOT of challenges ahead of me that’ll make this journey a lot harder than what I’ve been through already, and I’m sure I’ll have to go through another gut-check.
Okay. . .now this thread can DIE! 
maybe he had too many supplements ??
the swede
they should do an “after the PC” documentary on the participants. I wonder if Bizarre even goes to the gym anymore?
