Want to be 6'1 130, i'm 6'1 147 in this Video

http://www.T-Nation.com/free_online_article/sports_body_training_performance/i_bodybuilder_radical_strategy_for_radical_hypertrophy

May I remind you Adarqui, Bodybuilding is not about being moderate, Adarq. Bodybuilding is about being radical. Making huge and rapid gains in muscle size places extreme physiological demands on the body. And that requires extreme methodologies.

Radical muscle gains require radical physiology!

Now we know a lot more about exactly how to produce that radical physiologic state, and the rate of muscle gain has been nothing less than amazing.

In fact, Christian is actually a little embarrassed to talk about it, thinking no one will believe us.

I’m not just talking about excellent results, Mr. Adarqui, I’m talking about the mythical kinds of gains everyone talks about and hopes for, but almost no one gets.

Christian gained 27 pounds of muscle in 6 weeks, and was doing seated overhead presses with 375 pound for 5 cluster reps.

But anyway, since when was T-Nation a BODYBUILDING forum? Most of the articles are for powerlifting anyway, and who says BODYBUILDING is all about hypertrophy anyway? I’d say its more about being aesthetically pleasing. The average person would prefer adarqui’s straight outta auschwitz look over most of your fat fucks’ physiques. Yes mad

It’s getting to the point that we may have to round up Capt. High Socks and his followers and send them to a concentration camp. This forum needs cleansing, just sayin’

The word your looking for is atrophy.[/quote]

No offense, and I can understand what you mean here, atrophy is defined as: A wasting or decrease in the size of an organ or tissue, as from death and reabsorption of cells, diminished proliferation of cells, pressure, lack of oxygen, malnutrition, decreased function, or hormonal changes.

However, what we are trying to do is take a more active role in the matter, and also keep it on a more positive note. This term “reverse hypertrophy” was first coined by elite strength coach Robert Emil, formerly of the USSR.

Atrophy is more of a passive, or “accidental” loss of tissue, while “reverse hypertrophy” is more of a positive wording, that allows us to take a more assertive role in resolving these issues.

As I said, I mean no offense by this and I fully understand the confusion, but I strongly believe this phrase “reverse hypertrophy” is a more accurate description of what we, and apparently several others ( I have so far recieved 4 messages from other members and users stating that they are very appreciative of this thread and have had similar thoughts and goals but have been afraid to express them due to the nature of most the information here) are after.

Good luck with your training and goals, and thank you for supporting us in ours.

You’re arguing semantics. Atrophy and this “reverse hypertrophy” are both one and the same.

I get the vaque sense that adarqui and honeybadger are the same individual. None the less I hope you reach 130 soon. I remember as a high school athlete having to cut to 130 at five foot ten and maintaining that weight for four months. A horrible experience very much felt like an anorexic 14 year old girl during that time.

As for a resembling Frank Zane at 6 foot one 130. Thats a bit of a stretch mate.

[/quote]

I am not arguing, I clearly stated above the definition of atrophy and how it does describe what we are after in a way, but the term we choose to use is a more positive, aggressive, and driven phrase, “reverse hypertrophy”. Dr. Emil coined this phrase and I will continue to use it when referring to my goals on this matter. If you prefer to refer to it as atrophy, or preferably “focused atrophy” then that is fine, we are all entitled to our preferences.

The statement you made about adarqui and I being the same individual is ridiculous though, I have posted my pictures earlier in this thread, have one of them in my avatar, and he has done the same, several times throughout this thread. I am 6’2", he is 6’1", I weigh 225 lbs, he weighs ~150lbs. I have a tattoo of a barbed wire (goes all the way around, i enjoy the pain it caused on the underside of my tricep) on my left arm, and chinese and japanese characters on my right bicep, that state “strength, strive, and endure”, I do not believe he has any tattoos. I also feel that he is better at spelling than I am atm, but this is also something I plan to work hard on in addition to my physique goals. Here is one of my pictures again in case you missed that, I obviously have alot more work to do than him at this point but that is why I am here in the first place. Losing fat, muscle, and bone mass, through the process of reverse hypertrophy, is not an easy process.

Congratulations on your making 130 lbs, that is an awesome accomplishment, if I can end up even fairly close to that bodyweight I will be more than ecstatic. [/quote]

You natty bro?[/quote]

No, I have used creatine and anaconda before, even taking upwards of the recommended dosages at times though I am not proud of this, it has set me back tremendously.

This is in no way a compliment to me, however you may have meant it, my goals are to get to a much, much, lower bodyweight, and I already have existing self esteem issues due to my current state of fat/bone/muscle mass.

[quote]Huge and full. awsome. good lower stomach development. stacked brooo
[/quote]

More painful words, I would appreciate it if you would refrain from this even though it may be true in your eyes, it hurts me badly when you say things like this, I am contemplating carving my initials in my forearm with a leatherman as we speak.

I have already stated that I was extremely shy and embarrassed about posting pics of myself in the first place, I only did so to get help from the OP with his extensive knowledge of the reverse hypertrophy methods, not to be criticized by others nor to attain “atta boys” from them. I was honestly sweating and shaking when I posted them the first time, I am a very quiet, shy, and reserved person, posting pictures of myself for the first time EVER online took alot of me. Here are the pics again in case you didnt see them:

Anyhow, I have answered your questions to the best of my abilities, please refrain from using advanced bodybuilding terminology when referring to me or my pictures in the future, words hurt people too. Good luck with your training.

Adios. I won’t be checking this ‘reverse hypertrophy’ thread again, so ya’ll have fun now.

Respect? For a white trash meth addict that purposely logged onto a forum to troll and cause a ruckus? And brought people from his personal forum to do the same thing?

Respecting lunatics who are genuinely trying to do the right thing (get bigger on a bodybuilding forum) is one thing. You have too much faith in the human garbage of this world. BUt that’s not a bad thing at all 99% of the time. So I respect that.

Whats worse is that there ARE guys who WANT to look like that and believe hypertrophy is a bad thing. Quote thats been bugging me:

Discussing Kai Greene:

Dude A: Why would you want to get that big anyway? It just atrophies when you get older anyway.
Dude B: Yeah, eww.

WTF??

Its not about personal goals. Its about posting pictures of an emaciated body on a bodybuilding forum (RMP is the essence of bodybuilding) and trying to troll for days. If people want to be anorexic, go right ahead, more food for the people who appreciate it.

At the same time, goals of wanting to look like a walking skeleton don’t belong on a bodybuilding forum.

You don’t see me going on the V-Diet sister site and talk about gettin’ my bloat on, or posting in the guitarist thread about how epic my drumming skills are.

/facepalm

That’s what I was talking about at the end of my post, but of course I’m going to be called a retard. It’s not like I want to look like that, but plenty of people do.

I wasn’t aware that insulting/namecalling then backing out is the way of the Bushido. Give your sword to someone more worthy, your contributions to this thread have only reinforced the negative stereotype that being lean is somehow bad.

Congratulations, this has to be the most ignorant post on this entire thread. Yes, I am giving you the honor. Getting bigger is the RIGHT thing? Who are you to say that getting bigger is the RIGHT thing? Would you be more satisfied with a bigger, unhealthier woman of 300 lbs as opposed to a fit 80 lbs? If you indeed stand by your statement and are morally upstanding, this woman would indeed be doing the “right” thing in your eyes by getting bigger. Most people on this forum would prefer the physique of Arnold over Ronnie anyway so please explain why getting big is the “right” thing to do?

I think the OP and his friends are covert operators from the quilting forum.

No, the trekkie forum. I’m impressed with the studying and knowledge they have or our members. Kudos, it was a great attempt. Mods should be able to give us some insight.

I say it’s the trekkei forum or just some of our guys playing around.

If the only people dumber than the OP are the ones who responded to him, how dumb does that make you for trying to impart your warped brand of wisdom to those stupid enough to respond?[/quote]

I never said the responders were dumb. I said they looked dumb. There should be an obvious difference to you, but if you are as dumb as you look, perhaps not.

o…my…God…u look like u need to eat a cheeseburger…seriously dude in all seriousness EAT SOMETHING U MAKE THE STARVING KIDS IN AFRICA LOOK LIKE BUDDAH

It seems this website is full of people just dishing out personal attacks. I am not trying to offend anyone, I was simply getting the point across that I wholeheartedly disagree with your statement that getting big is the “right” thing to do. Can you please explain the logic behind your statement as I’m currently puzzled.

And this is not a bodybuilding website by your definition. I have read most if not all the articles on this site and many of them are sports related. As a basketball player I have referred back to the “indestructible ankles” article on numerous occasions and I doubt any of the “bodybuilders” on this website care about their ankles nearly as much as I do.
