dylans ancestors over there in italy drew a lot of nice shit during the renaissance, thats all i know!!
Comments like this make me fucking cringe... People rode horses for cars too man... People listened to 8 track tapes... People used rotary phones... People only had nolva and clomid... People wore bell bottoms... People did ALL KINDS OF FUCKING SHIT... Who cares? That's why new technologies, methods, etc are developed... So things can improve... I don't give a shit what anyone did back then in terms of eating... It makes no difference... They didn't have anything we have now... So what's your point? They had a lot less to work with... So what, we should deprive ourselves because they didn't have supplements we have now? This statement just fucking sucks...
This is why I stay out of diet threads anymore because EVERYONE knows EVERYTHING... Lets put it like this... If you look like Rick does, I have to say you know a little bit of what your talking about... You don't get that way by fucking magic... I DO THIS FOR A LIVING and the fact remains that ESPECIALLY WITH DIETS, it is ALMOST ALWAYS DIFFERENT FROM PERSON TO PERSON... Cycles are much different where its pretty general... Dosages, lengths etc can be different but the amount of variables are not even close to diets... RICK AND NELSON BOTH, are two VERY VERY EXPERIENCED AND KNOWLEDGEABLE GUYS and BOTH bring up strong points either way... The problem here is that what is conducive for some won't be for others... There's way too many variables... Both have so many strong points but they can BOTH HOLD TRUE dependent upon the individual, the goals, body response etc... Every study can be refuted by another study and then by another one... I hate these fucking studies... They are always countered by another and then another... Trial and error on each body is the only way to really determine what is going to work from person to person...
I do know this to hold true... Whatever the fuck those half cavemen half gorillas did doesn't mean shit right now! =)

You said it right brother. Different strokes for different folks. There is more than one way to skin a cat. Its all about figuring out what works for YOU!! You probably know better than anybody in this thread what its like to be criticized for your diet or training habits, but you and only you knows your body and what works. Not everyone has the same goals either. You and I like the aesthetic lean look, and are not trying to be pro bodybuilder size so we have a lot in common on goals even though our methods to get there may be different. I like to be that guy at the beach that males and females both envy and appreciate. Not the guy that girls look at and think "gross!"
Nelson, they LIVED all the way to 35 in blatant defiance of incredible physical stresses; it's amazing they made it that many years. You think any of us would? They died of physical trauma, years of being pummeled by physical stress above anything we face today, and that's about it. Can you imagine if they caught a break from the weather and had constant game?
Oh, wait, that's the plains Indians (who only acquired horses when the Spanish lost them).....they ate almost nothing but red meat and lived into their 80', and were 6-12 INCHES TALLER, leaner, and stronger than the whites who had degraded their physiques with bread,sweets,corn,and some salted pork. Lakota etc lived in the same Paleolithic hunter gatherer style of 50000 years prior basically.
You better believe they intermittent fasted.
Dylan, you seem to have missed my point. I was making an example of the super potential of the human being in raw form. I was saying, look what we accomplished and against what odds we did it, with bare nutrition.
My point is we do not NEED frequent feedings nor modern supplements to conquer the word as lean, mean, muscular machines. Can whey and supplements take proper foundation and make us go HIGHER? Sure. Undisputed.
My point is we don't NEED THEM.
And I'm sure ill get flamed, but you all know the story about the Russians taking a pencil into space, while the Americans spent millions on a special ball point pen that would write in zero gravity.
Perhaps the west is over thinking "diet and training" too. Just food for thought, lol.
