My history is first two years of lifting made zero improvement on multiple set to failure (FLEX) training. (6’4" 185 bench 200)…got the flu real bad here at the beginning of the third week. Plus I suddenly got so much weaker on the dls.
Have you ever considered that it may be your diet that is the problem? Someone 6’4" not being able to break 200lbs is STRANGE. You either have the worse genetics out of most of the people in this country, OR, the more likely reason is that you don’t eat enough to grow or even sustain your training program. Hitting 200lbs should have been a breeze for someone that tall if they simply ate enough and trained half ass but consistantly.[/quote]
I’m sorry did you not understand what I wrote? As soon as I switched to “HIT” training I gained 40 pounds of (mostly) muscle in 8 months.

Well, in your effort to point out how I wrong I was, you now make even less sense. So you kept training using a program that gave you no results for 10 YEARS? For the last 10 YEARS you have made virtually no progress? Yet you keep looking back to 10 YEARS AGO when you tried HIT briefly and gained 40lbs? Please let me know if I still have it backwards…because it appears you have farted around the gym for the past TEN YEARS which brings up the question again, have you stopped to think it was your DIET?
I mean, be sure to point out any failures in my understanding this time because I am rereading your thread and that is all I get…you stagnating in the gym for TEN YEARS.
One could argue that this is your genetic limit, however, it doesn’t explain why a person would use HIT, claim to make gains that some anabolic users don’t claim, and then turn your back on that program for ten years…wait, TEN YEARS…so you could try a program that didn’t work at all. Say what?

Cap’N Crunch sucked. The best cereal of all time was Mr. T cereal. The second was Pac Man cereal with Corn Pops and Sugar Smacks rated somewhere equally.
The sad thing is, I would never eat that crap now…even though I haven’t grown up yet.
Back in the day, my mom wouldn’t buy us sugar-coated cereals. Maybe that’s one of the many issues I need to tell my ‘counselor’ about.
Anyhow, My friend and I collected coke bottles all day one Friday.
Yeah - coke used to come in glass bottles and when you took them to a grocery store, they’d give you anywhere from 5-10 cents per bottle.
We collected like 3 dollars worth of bottles. Then we went straight to the cereal aisle and bought 3 boxes of Peanut Butter Crunch.
I spent the night with him, and we ate all 3 boxes in front of the TV watching the Bugs Bunny/Road-Runner hour and whatever else was on the next Saturday morning.

I stopped eating Cap’N Crunch when I was 9 because I choked on it. Very traumatic.
I used to eat Meow Mix. All of my brothers were bigger and would eat all the Captain Crunch. Me, kittycat, and the smurfs. Life was good.That stuff they do now with the chewey middles just ain’t right.
