I been gone for a while and I noticed being back for 10 days that a lot vets are gone now. Not that join dates mean anything, but it appears a lot steroid board mythology is being peddled here. The biggest thing that I noticed is that people still believe there are certain drugs for cutting and certain drugs for bulking, that is by far the biggest AAS fallacy.

There are no such things as "cut" drugs or "bulk" drugs. One can diet on any drug, and one can bulk on any drug. Just some drugs "aromatize" more than others. Diet, training, and cardio dictate whether a person gets ripped or bulks up.

I told this story 1,000 times and I will tell it another 1,000 times if I can find "one" receptive heart who will understand. I met Dennis Newman right after he won the Nationals in 1994. He was the guest poser at the Mr. Ohio. He was nice enough to talk to my friends and I about steroid use. Newman asserted himself without hesitation. He said, "don't believe there are certain drugs for cutting and certain drugs for bulking, you can diet and bulk on any drug." After 20 years of taking Newman's advice through trial and error, I would have to say Newman was/is spot on..

I know people who get ripped on drols and test, and I mean shredded. I personally put on 20 pounds taking only winny tabs and mast one time.

I hope this helped someone??

Thank you...like myth busters!

Thanks...just learning as usual...heading to the gym for back right now, any suggestions for a back workout that I wouldn't think of or have already been doing? Is 12 sets for back overtraining? I will bring my phone with me and check on an answer .

I'm doing back today myself. Back is the only body part I do more than 12 sets..

1). deads
2). bent over rows
3). seated cable rows (close grip)
4). one arm cable rows or one arm dumbbell rows
5). Lat pull downs (wide grip).

Note* This is always subject to change

3 sets each.. stay in the 10-12 rep range..

That's what I'm doing today..

I cant say how true enough this is! I think its just a miss conception bc there are compounds the will hold more water retention so ppl think their fatter or cant cut

Glad your workout went well. I just got back from the gym. I had a hard time getting into a rhythm doing deads. I did 3 sets of 10 @ 225, but it was shaky.. However, the rest of my workout went well : I stayed in the 10-12 rep range for all my sets and got a nice pump..



What a drag it is training natural...

It is only going to get better for us bro . If it is any consolation...after doing 225 lb barbell bent over rows for 3x12, I only went up to 275-315 for dedz...lower back was on fire doing these back to back...no pun intended. Good days...ok days...kill it days, take them as they come.

Nice 'dead' numbers. If your back was on fire then "objective complete."


I'm not disappointed about where I am at considering a took a considerable amount of time off and I'm training natual for now. I'm focusing on getting my mechanics and form down correctly and trying to catch a rhythm. Once I get those things in order, and my body conditioned to the point where I think it's time to hit the sauce, then turn out the lights, the party's over.


I'll take tomorrow off, then murder my wheels Sunday...

Question on the days that the motivation is fleeting in the weight room, numbers are down, and the pump just doesn't seem to come like other days.... Do u guys push through and deviate from the workout plan in order to achieve the massive pump or lay back and are satisfied with the fact that the exercises you set out to do are accomplished. I guess what I'm getting at is , is it worth the risk of overtraining at the expense of getting the pump?

In the past I would just add more sets which as I learned was counter productive...sometimes when I am most run down or tired I have my best workouts...other days I just take it for what its worth and just do the best I can for that day. Hope that makes sense.
