One set with a massive amount of weight can be intense. Acting like a hyperactive gerbil just makes you look funny.[/quote]
Dude… that’s better than a lot of motherfuckers that I see in the gym!
Oh my. I keep wanting, trying, for God’s sake, to quit this website. Seriously. Really.
But with threads like this, it’s absolutely impossible…like watching a car wreck. As it happens. And not being responsible for talking to the police. And, if you want, poking the bodies when they cease twitching.

You guys would have failed argument and persuasion big time. You want to argue with out pics. That’s like fucking without a dick. Nevermind, thats how some of you guys fuck. Your accomplishments are grand in your head… but in the real world where they count, you fall short.
You must look good or huge in your imagination… cause you havn’t showed anything, but you sure can TALK. We all talk, but only the best can actually back it up. I’ve offered a gym invitations to lift with me and I have shown my pics. Looks like another bunch of no show trolls who got beat before the bell went “ding mother fuckin’ dong”.

Honestly, how insecure are you mr intensity. Most of the population grows up after high school. Even if you’re hung like a bull hampster, i’m sure you’ll find a woman some time.

I’ve had sex more times than you probably jerked off.
Here’s a pic of my wife by the way. Her names Tonia. Yeah, she likes intense men… that’s why this type of girl passed you up in High School and was banging’ your buddy instead; ya know, the one that can actually fend for himself. Women like protection. You might wanna grow a pair one day.
Hey Canada… are you gonna walk the walk or talk the talk like the rest of them. We have similiar stats, except I’m not as fat as you. Put up a pic next time you wanna rumble. You can’t win a fight outside of the ring. Next time, put on the gloves and step into the ring if you wanna rumble.
My pic is up; I’m in the ring. My guess is you will cower with the others and go home and tell your friends you won without ever having fought.
I love your logic. Too bad it doesn’t apply in the real world. Alot of talk on this site. Prof X was right, not one of these douchebags will back anything up with a pic.
Christ, I’m gettin’ too old for this.
just because you have more stamina doesnt make you more intense, that guy that lifts 800 lbs works just as hard as you, but with different goals man. you couldnt lift 800 lbs for a 1rm if your life depended on it
oh and your challange to see how many 3rm squats you can do? wouldnt you only be able to do 3 reps if its your 3rm? if you can do more guess what ITS NOT YOUR 3RM!!!

Wrong! It takes more intensity to keep lifting. This is precisely what seperates the best from the rest, & why most people QUIT when it gets heavy, or you muscles ache, or you are winded. He had less intensity than me because, even though his 1 rep max is more than mine… he can’t push harder than me.
If he could he could have kept up with the rest-pause sets. I can lift more total weight than him in 3 minutes. Therefore, I have the more intense workout. If he was intense, I’m sure he could have made it through the sets of deads with my weight.
The only thing we agreed on is that our 1 rep max’s are the same intensity because we both gave it everythingthing we had to preform that 1 rep. The intensity to keep going is a whole new kind of intensity that you probably have not felt yet.
The 3 rep max is not only done 3 times, its done as many times as possible in 3 minutes. I will get 3 on my first lift, then re-rack the bar, take a quick breath or two then go at it again… probably will get 1-2 reps, then keep re-racking and hitting singles until the time is up. The rest taken between lifts will determine your intensity level.
Those that can dig deep will produce the highest total numbers in 3 minutes. Granted my cardio is better, that is a direct result from this type of training “higher intensity”.
If you want to test your intensity, you can try the 1-10 method… hit every rep from 1 to 10 with max weight for that specific rep for 10 consecutives lifts with only enough time to change the weights. I have a tougher version of this that I call “Purgatory”, which goes from 1 to 10 then back to 1 for 100 total reps.
It only requires 1 set for the entire muscle to be trained. You cannot do that until you have practiced a 1-5, then a 1-10 method. This guy never did any of that. He was used to one than done. The combination of heavy weight and time under it is what makes intensity. Not the total weight or the time under it.
I can do a single, big fuckin deal. I can also curl a 5lb dumbbell for a couple of hours, big fuckin deal. The combo is where its at. The most amount of weight and the variable time under it.
Go heavy fool,
The point that you don’t get is there are different training methods for different goals. Sure, it’s awesome what you do, if your workouts are what you say they are. However, I can guarantee you that’s NOT the best way to build maximal strength.
So that powerlifter couldn’t give a shit if he can rest-pause for an hour, he only cares about how much he can do for a single.
Do you think Asafa Powell cares about how many times he can sprint 100m, one time after the other, with 5 breaths in between? No, he cares about how fast he can do it once.
I’m not trying to knock you, because as I said, if you walk the walk as well as you talk the talk, you certainly are doing some great things and making some great gains in the weightroom and more people would be better served by having your attitude. I’m just saying that there IS different methods for different goals. If somebody else isn’t hating on what you do for your goals, why go out of the way to knock them for the way they train, especially if they are better at what they do than you are!

Oh, I hear ya. I also agree with most of what you said. I myself like to use most of the powerlifters movements to build muscle… ie Ronnie Coleman. I’m not knocking anybody. The powerlifter is stronger than me. The marathoner has better endurance than me. I sit in the middle somewhere. I’m like the middle weight boxer, I like the combination of the power and speed. this is what makes the elite athlete elite… a la Larry Johnson, Jim Browm, Mike Tyson, even Arnold and Ronnie Coleman were built but strong as a side effect for trying to gain mass.
I prefer to use the hardest way possible to train for better results. Therefore, I do heavy lifts and singles myself… but I rest pause them because I am not in it for strength. I’m in it for periodization or hypertrophy. I agree that my methods are not good for powerlifters building maximal strength.
My methods are strictly for hypertrophy gains. If I wanted strength without size, I would follow a powerlifters resume. I do get the added strength benefit from my training as a side effect but the goal is hypertrophy. This is best acomplished thru periodization and using the most intense routines for certain time frames. The “more work in less time” concept is my whole basis which is just a simple Vince Gironda concept. This includes, pushing thru the pain and past the pain barrier, sucking it up and performing more reps even though winded. These methods would include everything from supersets, dropsets, stripper sets, giant sets, staggerd sets, rest-pause, increased frequency and maximal volume in shorter periods.
The 1-10 method or just a triple drop set with no rest between exercises would be a typical workout for me. I do a lot of heavy lifting for singles but I rest-pause them and will get 6-10 reps with my 3RM weight… again all this follows a Vince Gironda concept “more work in less time”, I’m not inventing anything here. All I’m doing is going with what comes natural… and that is the more work I do and the higher my intensity level is, the greater my results are. Its that simple, the harder I push the easier I gain.
go heavy, i like ur attitude in ur posts usually, and ur trainig method seems to work for u. But to say that a 800lb deadlifter doesnt have the same intensity as u is decieving. He trains in a completely diff way then you. if he actually trained ur style consistently i bet it wouldnt take him long to match ur numbers.
edit: didnt see jtrinseys post, he said what i was thinking, just better worded
I laughed when you blathered on about calling me out. I laughed harder when you posted ‘the arm’, again, and I pissed myself when you posted a pic of ‘your wife’.
How insecure are you? You’ll post a complete pic of ‘your wife’ but only part of your arm?
Anyway, as has been said before this has never been about me, it’s about you ‘calling out’ every person who doesn’t agree with you 100%.
But hey, keep wasting all the typing on me, I don’t care. You’ve shown all who’ve read this thread what kind of person you are. My work is done.

((((LADIES & GENTLEMAN))))
Pay attention, watch the troll at work here. Again he refuses to post a pic of himself after calling me out and telling me I was full of shit. I responded with pics. Another ignorant ass said I needed a woman, I responded with a pic of my wife.
Take notice, I am the only one with a pic of my results from my training or philosophy of training. I could care less who agress with me Sxio. Every powerlifter on earth wouldn’t want to do my training, that would fuck up there strength gains and add muscle to them. You have followed me around on about 4 threads and have insulted me and I have responded.
NOTICE… I have not said one thing to sxio on any thread he posts in and follow by insulting him. Everyone of my responses have been a direct retaliation to the trolls insults after posting in a thread I’m in. I don’t go chasing this numnutz around in his threads and start insulting him. I could care less about this dumb fucker with no build. I’m not kidding. Look at his posts and see who he follows around every couple days and adds an insult or tries to call me out.
I have responded and shut you down sxio. The posters see my pics, they see nothing from you. You have not shown anything. My arm progress pics are up as a direct result from my training. My routines are in my blog.
You have been a pain troll, but very easy to defeat, you don’t even have any ammunition. I at least have pics that can be judged. The others that have responded on this thread with insults are just bandwagon trolls… notice none of them post anything and like to call me out. I have not called anybody out other than those who have insulted me. If you wanna insult me and proove that you have a better body or training ideas and mine suck, great then post a pic and proove it. I never said I had the best anything, I just showed you what I got, and you showed nothing. I could care less who looks better than me or has better training ideas, the ones that called me out obviously don’t or they would have produced results by now.
Yesterday a bandwagon of trolls hopped on the lets insult Prof X today clan. Started off with 1 or 2, next thing you know, he’s being insulted and called out in multiple threads. WTF is going on, is thier a troll break and they all escaped? Or is this like one giant troll with like 25 sets of hands. I shit on everyone here who cannot back up their mouth with a pic or a result or anything. You want to make fun of my pics or my wife, great… at least I have the balls to display pics i didn’t even want to post in the first place. But, I’m getting sick of these numnutz talking without any proof or picture of anything to back up their big mouths.
As you see sxio’s mouth is still running, and has not shown us his fantasic body. Still waiting for your pics troll.
What’s with all this calling out for people to post pics, and only ever posting a pic of 1 arm???
Not that being bigger or better conditioned would make you right, but at least posting a full-body pic wouldn’t make you look hypocritical.

Work of a troll. You can do two things with these losers. I prefer option #2. Option 1- Ignore them, they get bored and go away. Option 2- Call them out and make them post a pic; they run away scared and embarassed for getting their dicks stuffed up their own ass, they will never post a pic… they are NOTHING. Remember when Kratos had his pics up and his troll got called out and wouldn’t post a pic. Alot of that going on around here.

I’m done posting pics. I’m removing all of mine. Mine have been up there for a week and anybody who has called me out WILL NOT post anything to compare. I’m done with this bullshit.
If you want to see a 4th pic, put up 3 of your own motherfucker!

Would you like to see my dick too? Post a pic of your dick and I’ll put a pic of my dick up. O.K. That’s how it works for now on. You get nothing until I see your pics. My pics are coming down, better commit them to memory.

Okay, I don’t see where the “mother fucker” was necessary, unless you just hate being proven wrong.
And for the record, I have 17 pictures in my profile, my profile is open to the public, and I have posted many of them on this site already.
You have called out many people about posting pics, and have only showed your arm.
And no, I don’t want to see a pic of your penis, just the rest of your body, you know, because you keep calling people out.
Unless the only reason you’re calling other out is to see their penis, otherwise your other post asking if I want to see your penis makes no sense at all.
