Wow. First we had the egyptian hulk
And now the egyptian bulk!!! AWESOME!!!
I never claimed I had a great physique in any quote, my body as it is provides me a very good living and if anyone has watched the olympics u’d know the size shot putters reach, in order to be able to provide max power
elnyka I am sorry if the homosexual remarks offended u for any reason or another
with that over with lets talk science
primarily yes i am aware of Strawmen 
Secondary saying HIIT doesn’t result in lean mass gain is pure heretacy but saying that HIIT doesn’t promote Lean Mass gain as DC is acceptable, so it is all a play on words
and in my own belief any training that doesn’t promote endurance can be categorized as muscle building.
second of all the profile was last updated August 2006 same as the picture I only started posting on T-Nation last week and soon (this week) will add a pic of my 18.9% bodyfat along with videos of some of my powerlifting, olympic lifting and shot puttingmay be u guys can learn something JK
and finally elnyka if u get anybody in the gym for a couple of months lifting heavy weights with correct technique and eating right they’ll gain shit loads of mass
The video will be added and let’s agree that moronity has been going two ways here
lets keepit at that for now and start discussing what this topic was started for
what do u think of DOGGCRAPP
LOL @ egyptian hulk. Truly, modesty in action.
egyptianbulk, which part of waylander’s post didn’t you understand?
Be reasonable, man, or get lost, you.
PS: btw, I’m lucky if I’m sub-20 bf. Maybe you had been drinking 5-6 gallons of water right before that photo was taken, though. -.-
PPS: your arms look like they’re carrying some muscle, but you’ll surely have to do something about those shitty stick-calves of your’s, buddy.
Dear Lord, this sounds like Chicktuna all over again.
I can’t guess his bodyfat without the sneakers in the pictures.

Ok I will shoot a video of myself accomplyshing those feats as I don’t have one at the moment but I promise it will be uploaded in a day or two
about bigotry you can’t blame someone for being african but u definitly can blame him for being a fag
Finally the HIIT question
My categorizing of HIIT with German volume 5x5 and DC is very reasonable if u categorize excercises into glycogen depleting( Training performed by stamina and endurance athletes) and non glycogen depleting (Bodybuilding , power, size and weightloss) might seem weird that categorization but actually that is avery popular in the eastern block (taught to me by coach Anatoly Bondarchuk one of the very famous Hammer throw coaches and power coaches) if yoy still have glycogen in the muscle and had an enough stimulus during training then you grow)
SO now do u wanna say that HIIT doesn’t cause a gain of lean mass
dude I hate how complicated u guys are getting things, here in Egypt things are pretty simple lift heavy eat right and do ur cardio and u have a great physique
if u don’t believe me go see how many amateur world champs we have in BBing checkout anwar el amawy , shahat mabrouk and many others, all I wanted to say from the very begining is just fucking train it’s not the impossible question of taking 5or 7 gm of creatine how long before practice its what u fucking do in the weight room
and what u do is simply lift heavy till u can’t lift no more and then rest then u will grow
u’ll get the video but i am bored of this lame shit

Im sorry, I just had to say something. I tried not to, but I just couldn’t resist.
For one, don’t be calling out people that are far more developed than you. You are going to lose, plain and simple (and with that physique, not only will you lose, you will be humiliated).
I wanted to make a comment about one of your previous comments, about not needing to look aesthetic with single digit body fat. While that point has some merit, you have to remember not only what website you’re on, but which forum topic as well. If this is bodybuilding, then yes, looks do matter, not performance. Save that for the strength forum.
You also seem confused as to what you’re talking about. HIIT stands for High Intensity Interval Training. Thats a form of cardio. So no, you really won’t build any muscle with it, unless your body is so unaccustomed to exercise that even HIIT can cause a growth response.
You’re actually referring to HIT, same as above except without the Intervals. Intensity refers to ones percentage of a one rep max, not how much glycogen it depletes. So GVT (the original version) is not HIT. In fact, most proponents of HIT use very little sets, so glycogen usually doesn’t get depleted all that much.
And as for lifting until you can’t lift anymore…thats a great recipe to burn yourself out, make no strength gains, and even worse, get injured. Most bodybuilders use 2-3 exercises (maybe 4) with only one true work set per exercise. They don’t lift till they can’t lift anymore.
Look, if you care more for performance, then by all means do so. No one will judge you on that, but that should be taken to the strength forums. If you continue to stick around, at least do your homework a bit more, and try not to be a self indulged ass.

Alright, sweet man. I’ll be sure to deplete my creatine stores on the next workout to build muscle. Thanks for the advice.

Didn’t Dan John throw shot put, hammer , discus, etc. I don’t remember seeing any pictures of him being so out of shape. You seem to be getting angry at everyone for calling you out on the same thing you asked for, a visual of the physique all your hard work in the gym earned you.

Testosterone muscle and Hypertrophy is not about how good I will look in a thong partying around waylanderxx and elnyka’s boyfriend
True Hypertrophy is about getting big and strong,none of us needs to be at single digit bodyfat % unless they are bodybuilding competitors

So you like to lift heavy but look like shit? It’s either one or the other? Lifting heavy and looking good is just too much dedication for your fat ass?

HA!
beat me to it. 18.9 my ass. I’d honestly put you closer to 28.9 than even 20[/quote]
The last time I told somebody how unaware he was about his bodyfat percentage I was called a beaner LOL. Many (every time fewer) members are on the quest to get as big as they can, but it’s funny when you see the guy who has to grab his lovehandles to walk claiming he’s sub 20%.

If this is what Dave Tate looks like at 296 lbs and 19% body fat, then your body fat is obviously way higher than 18.9%. Obviously people can look different at the same bodyfat/body weight/ etc., but come on, seriously? STFU and GTFO.
I really doubt that is 19% bodyfat. I’ve never heard of someone having a 4 pack and looking that lean while at almost 20%. I think the article was wrong in that regard.
I could be wrong but if I had to guess i’d definitely say Tate was much lower than that.

Exactly. That’s why bf % can suck. Besides, one should also take the method into account that has been used to determine the bf %.
The take-home point is this: don’t trust “the digits”, trust your mirror and measurements.
Or at least STOP fooling around with taking your bf % UNTIL you’ve already became pretty ripped by layman standards (i. e. visible abs, somewhat striated quads and pecs, clear biceps-triceps separation, visible delta tie-ins…).
End of story.

it is actually 19% bf, there was an article about this transformation. The author mentioned a great portion of his fat was the kind that surrounds the organs, visceral fat I believe it’s called.

That means, however, that he would measure less using calipers. Most people are not getting weighed underwater or in a “bod pod”.
I think egyptianBulk got mixed up when he heard about the V taper.
Maybe he was upside down at the time.

Yes he did callipers first and only measured 12% then they did some other test, not sure of the name and he it said he was 19%. Perhaps it was the bodpod.
Dave definitely looks leaner than most at 19% body fat due to visceral fat vs. subcutaneous fat, among other things, but the picture shows the amount of lean mass that a body carries at ~300# and 19% bf, and Egyptian Bulk is clearly not carrying muscle mass even close to what it takes to be 296# @19, and especially not 319# @18.9 as he claimed.
