How would you rate your genetics?

Now i definitely busted my ass over the years, but im not gonna lie to anyone. Ill say being an athletic endomorph by my own judgement, I had fairly good strength and size genetics. Within the first year of my training i was benching 3 plates without juice. But when it comes to losing fat and getting ripped, thats where i really have to bust ass. Its so hard for me to lose even a pound its shitty.

Anyways, Im curious as to where many of you stand genetic-wise. My decision to use juice was based on the fact that i wanted to maintain muscle while losing fat, the area my genetics are weak in.
 
I would say average also. Easy to put on muscle natty, hard to get rid of the fat.

Is she making you a post workout shake Guardian?
 
I'm pretty ectomorphic. So, its a blessing when it comes to being lean and shredded, its a curse if I'm trying to add mass. I also have a semi-strange placement of my shoulders. Hard to explain and not that noticeable, but they sit more forward than "most." Overall, dad's sperm isn't helping me to become Mr. O
 
Horrible -- which is why I floundered for years with no results until I started breaking the rules and doing things differently. Then results came quickly. And this was before resorting to gear.
 
id say adverage. I could gain naturally. I could loose fat also with dieting though I used to gain fat easy. not going to look like a freak naturally though.
 
I was always a huge bastard! i was 275 6'2 and husky as fuck then cut down to 210 then bulked easily to 235 now im 220 trying to cut. It's way to easy to gain muscle for me and really hard to show my abs. i atcually never had a six pack. My and my brother are all athletic and strong, my father and mother were athletic also so gofigure.
 
I'd kill for 17" arms.

I am 6'-5"1/2 and built with narrow shoulders and small bone structure i.e. a basketball players physique and to make matters worse I kinda carry a high BF level along with my boney frame.

Hard for me to gain size and strength both. Also hard for me to get ripped while maintaining the size I do have.

Wrists are about 6.5", Hulk Hogan's 9.0" need I say more.

My body belongs to basketball, but my heart belongs to bodybuilding...10 years and counting. I will never give up.
 
i'd say pretty good. always been on the skinny side, but when i eat right i gain very lean mass quickly.
 
i can bulk easy but cutting is tough. i always carry a little more bf then i should but im by no means fat or sloppy. 5'11 195 right now. i could get through HS sports without lifting. i was always to be slightly better without much effort.
 
i have the genetics of a kenyan marathon runner,but now you couldnt tell after 8 yrs of hard training and a little sauce.
 
Skinny frame, holds fat easily...Not the most fun combination lol The only good thing is that I seem to add muscle in most places fairly easily, its just keeping the fat off if It gets on that is the problem.

I am quite mesomorphic, slight endo tendencies.

I have a lot of muscle for a wee slip of a nattie lass. :)
 
I would have to say I have excellent genetics naturally!
I can maintain 205Lbs - ripped at 6'2" with little effort/or holding to the "right foods" and I've got a lot of natural strength (LB for LB) - But my-self image needs - more size -and so I have to accept the added strength that comes with it. My challenges are to stay limber with the increased bulk, and remember to feed myself more so that I can maintain the added size.
When I was in college I lifted like a trogan, and I held 225Lbs with a 325 bench and 425 squat - 555 deadlift (ALL Natural)
Now much older, (20 years later) slightly deminished Testosterone levels and time on my hands - I guess I'm trying to recapture the size and strength that was so easy in my youth - But genetically I've got to be not to far off from where I was, cause even though I haven't lifted heavily like this for a long time - My former glory days are rushing back in a big Ol hurry - now that I'm supplementing with - Stuff (LOL)
 
ive been told above average.i could have gone far when i was younger but ive always strugled with the bottle and pills.until 2 years ago.measured my arms and calves the other day.biceps exactly the same calves exactly the same calves only 1/4 inch bigger than biceps.now thats balance.
 
Average.

I have a very broad shoulders, and large arms and back and quads, with natually little calves, and a lacking chest. I also have naturally wide hips--which sucks.

But, I look good, so I can't complain. Just will never be a professional bodybuilder or anything like that.
 
Honestly, I don't know. I'd have to say 8 or 9 on a scale of 10. Meaning I could easily win pretty much any local or regional show and place top 10 at the national level. I doubt I could turn pro though, those are the guys who are 10's. When I'm lean, I can carry 180lbs with 7%bf on a 5'5" frame with 26in waist, with 17" arms and 25" legs. It's mainly my back that is lacking in width, I have a narrower frame. I've never really tried to see how big I could get, nor have I ever competed, and not sure I ever will, so I may never know. I do know I could easily get to 220lbs with no more than 11-12%bf at 5'5", and that's without doing 2g's/week of juice. If I did 2 or 3g's/week... who knows? Still though, I have good genetics, but sure as hell not the best. My best genetics are in the classroom and the bedroom :)
 
I thought u were on some monster cycle and u were betting everyone u WOULD get to 220 as u were preparing for a competition. What happened to that?

Just a few genetic factors:


Cortisol output
Adrenaline output
Insulin output
insulin sensitivity
Thyroid output
Thyroid sensitivity
Testosterone production
Testosterone/hormone sensitivity
Testosterone to estrogen conversion
SHGB sensitivity
Testosterone to DHT conversion
Estrogen sensitivity
Growth Hormone output
Growth Hormone sensitivity
IGF output
IGF sensitivity
Digestive capability
Basic protein synthesis ability
Muscle fiber composition
Muscle fiber content
Motor unit recruitment/motor unit density
CNS output/CNS recovery (central nervous system)
Hard wired stress response
Emotional states

uh - wow. do we have to rate each on a scale of 1-100?
 
genetics = shitty...well i'm Sicilian and most of us are known for being fat bastards who sit around eating pasta and garlic all day while watching the sopranos and threatening to kill every telemarketer that calls us...but luckily i'm not from the fat side of the country lol...all in all though, lower bed strength prior to aas = absolutely rediculous...naturally leg press almost 1000lbs while formerly weighing in at 185lbs. upper body on the other hand was about as strong as a 2 year old lol...but thx to aas, strength is nice and well rounded in the gym and i'm a whopping 238lbs. with <18% BF at 5'11".
 
Genetics are decent. Im sicilian too, and I guess not from the fat side of the country. Im short, 5'6.. and naturally about 140. Im at 152 right now, just started up again yesterday, so Im hoping to get to about 170ish. Body fat not too high, abs visible, just that lower ab region i need to trim down a little. Naturally I was up to 275 bench and leg pressing reps of 700, while weighing 154. Always had really strong, thick legs. Now lets see where I get to now.

Cortisol output..............stress levels are wack :p so I'd say 5/10.
Adrenaline output..............def. a 9/10.
Insulin output
insulin sensitivity
<-------> wats the diff. between the two?
Thyroid output
Thyroid sensitivity
Testosterone production..........................11/10...I have excess natural T levels.
Testosterone/hormone sensitivity
Testosterone to estrogen conversion

SHGB sensitivity
Testosterone to DHT conversion
Estrogen sensitivity
<----same thing?

Growth Hormone output
Growth Hormone sensitivity
IGF output
IGF sensitivity
Digestive capability
Basic protein synthesis ability
Muscle fiber composition
Muscle fiber content
Motor unit recruitment/motor unit density
CNS output/CNS recovery (central nervous system)
Hard wired stress response
Emotional states

Based on the above factors, I'd say 7/10. I'm almost a pure mesomorph, unless I'm on a bulking cycle, I tend to bloat.

Tat, please answer some of my questions.
 
Guardian, my cycle was NOT massive, nor did I ever bet anyone I would get to 220. I said I'd get to 205-210 at 10-11% bf. I'm currently 200lbs and 11% at 5'5". Cycle is 600/week of EQ, 300week/masteron enth/ and 750/week of test enth. Big but nothing compared to what I plan to run in the future. I'll easily make the 205 or 210 that I predicted I'd make. 220 is for next bulker :D

my mistake. just curious on the progress. we dont hear from ya much.
 
My genetics? Depends on what we're talking about....but since this is a body-building/weight-lifting site, my genetics for that are average I suppose. I was an above-average athlete...get abs really easy, horrible endurance (lack of slow twitch fibers I guess), so-so strength....below-average pain tolerance. I don't build up easily, but can drop weight easily.

Chicks tell me I have a sexy body all the time. So I really don't give a fuuuuuuuuuck....LOL!
 
Terrible. Skinny frame, stores fat very easily, diabetic, small arms and shoulders, wide hips, poor response from steroids, and has man boobs.


After 6 years of going to the gym 5 days a week, brutal diets, multiple cycles, and every thing else to gain an edge, I look like an average guy who casually works out. I often walk around the gym damning all the guys who have it so easy.

Bro, no offense. But if that is you in your avatar pic, there is no way you are a pure mesomorph. You look like a endomorph with some meso traits. People don't realize how rare pure mesos are. They represent .01% of the population
