It is going to keep happening until some of you respond to it. I’m not going to stop posting here just because they plan to do this for just about any statement I make.
Right now, this thread is still here because, hey, unless some of you change it, every discussion will end up like this.
This COULD have been a real discussion…you know, like what we used to do back when topics were worth reading because they didn’t all de-evolve into this crap.[/quote]
So you “LOLing @” a guy with a low post count who made a valid, albeit exaggerated, point is NOT contributing to the de-evolution of the site. But those that call you on your bullshit ARE de-evolving the site?
You are the dumbest smart person Ive ever encountered.
Youre right. It COULD have been a real discussion. But you had to jump in showing your ass without contributing a single worthwhile point until you were called on it.
OP,
Is your question specifically about Lee Priest, or are you using him as a general example of extreme development? There are some tall pros who look just as chunky offseason.
I look at it this way: some people talk about reaching the top of the mountain as their goal. To reach the pinnacle is the highest status in their minds. But had they reached for the stars, even falling short would still put them beyond the mountaintop.
Lee Priest is probably a huge inspiration to many. Even though realistically these people will never reach Lee’s development, their efforts behind the inspiration might bring them higher than if Lee had not been their goal.

Don’t see anything wrong with Prof X’s initial post. All he has done is disagree with a post - this is how discussions start and we can all learn something. The problem came when instead of discussing their side people made personal attacks. These comments are the ones I refer to as getting old.
If you have personal shit you want to argue take it to PMs so the rest of us don’t have to read this shit.
If either party wants to discuss my post please feel free to PM me :). Otherwise lets talk about crocodile dundee!
Throwing some inspiration into this shit thread.
Back to the damned topic, Lee Priest liked food and he didn’t care about being heavier in the off season. I personally think getting THAT heavy is a risk…and he later did have heart issues but I am not sure of the details.
Lee Priest was one of those who got noticed around the end of that Dorian Yates and Nasser era. Nasser was well known for getting freaky huge in the off season.
That photo of KFC that everyone keeps talking about wasn’t exactly staged although I am sure he was sticking his belly out. He always bulked up like that…but that wasn’t 290lbs.
I doubt he was over 260 in that picture.

If you dont see anything wrong, that’s fine. It’s your opinion.
And I have mine.
No one is forcing you to read anything.
If anyone here doesn’t want to look like him, you should probably quit posting in this section of the forums.

Didn’t he admit that the Before/After photos were reversed at some point? I know he ‘came out’ about the BS aspect of that particular ad.

I think it was them taking pics after a show…and then taking them months later when he was in full off season mode.

Holy crap let it go.
I rarely allowed myself to gain more than 12-15 pounds in the off season. I believe anything more than that and your body would start morphing into something other than a greek god.

DD…sorry to get off topic but I love your avatar!
Ok ill post something on topic, has anyone read anything about the drug cycles this guy says he takes? they are extremely low and pretty much unbelieveable for when he cuts, what are some others opinions if theyve read what i had

From what I’ve seen…and this is all opinion and speculation…but I wouldn’t put it past him to use way smaller doses during more of the year when he used to get heavier. I am sure everything but the kitchen sink was used to drop 70lbs in less than 4 months and still look great on stage.

IIRC Dorian Yates posted a cycle that looked pretty low. A lot of people called bullshit on this, while some others (Dante and other guys from IM) said it was very plausible
No way to know

Thanks, it’s a camera phone pic from the zoo. It’s a big silverback sitting with his back to the glass. The picture doesn’t do him justice. I could not get over how massive and muscular his back was. I think the little sign said he was 495 pounds.

I would aggree with this because if he isnt using that much then the weight gain would come a great deal easier, but what didnt make sense to me is what he said he used to cut with was verrrry small compared to others especially considering he drops more weight then any other competitor
i found this article where asked he said
Like I said, I hate needles and hate taking the ****. I use 3 or 4 compounds ( primo, winstrol, clen and maybe some gh) all in small amounts during my precontest training because it helps me keep my size and helps me recovery
guy has good genetics so you never know i just thought this actually might be interesting to discuss.
also ive always been a fan of him because we both want to look like superheros except that he alrdy does, but i find him to be a very poor sport. I know theres some comps he should of one but hes a bit of a crybaby IMO

Im glad you brought this up because this reminded me of that article Dante put up talking about how low a lot of peoples doses relatively low, i forget the name but it was an interesting read
Nothing! Or almost nothing. I typically will do one mass course consisting of deca and primo in the amounts I mentioned before for 6-8 weeks and then I?ll have 4-6 months clean depending on when my next show is. I really don?t give a **** if people believe it, but that?s the truth. If it helps them to justify why I am a pro and they are not, they will believe that I walk around with a blatter pack of test on an I.V. drip all day long. Remember that article on the web last year called the Dead Pool?
