Let me say first that I agree w/ most of your original post, just it came across as preachy. Also, I don't mean to flame, but I'm having a problem believing your gains. You're telling me that you put on 25lbs of clean, striated muscle every year for the past 4 years? I find that hard to believe. I know several competitive bodybuilders who train hard, eat right, and take what they have to. From my experience, and theirs, it is considered phenomenal to put on 20lbs of muscle in a year, let alone 25lbs/yr for 4 years. I also have trouble believing that someone can put on that much weight and keep their BF% down. Even the muscle gains the pros make in the offseason are usually hidden by all the fat and water weight they put on. For instance, I saw Ronnie Coleman guest pose at the Springfield, Missouri (Chad Nichols) show this year. The man had a HUGE gut and quite a bit of BF.
