Lift big to get big? What do YOU think??

[rusbus01]

you must lift heavy to gain but you cannot sacrifice form

I was refered to do a "ladder" routine... I start out with medium weight and move up to a difficult weight then drop back down... for instance

start with 60's then 70's then 80's for 8-10 reps then I go back to 70's and and then 60's... and on that last set w/ the 60's I pump out as much as I can.

Has anyone tried this, seems to work for me..

he looks like shit either way so who cares? He doesn't even really workout.

Powerlifters are the biggest people on the planet. Arnold, Franco, all started as powerlifters, now Coleman lifts heavy with the high rep. shit, cause he is taking a suitcase full or roids.

Coleman has enough roids to give a horse gyno.

I hate people like you - and average person pointing towards roids, not recognizing the hard work and sheer genetics it takes to look like that. You could take twice the roids and never acheive an ounce of what he has acheived... have a little respect... this is a steroid oriented bodybuilding site in case you didn't know

And Richspc is even more full of shit - he does high rep cuz hes on? You are ridiculous

what do you mean you "hate people" like me? I personally think Ronnie C. has a repulsive physique and one can only assume by looking at his roid gut that he's on a shitload of gear. Don't get me wrong, i know at the top level genetics is just as important as their drug regimin, but come on bro. Pick up your skirt and grab your balls and get over it. Don't take things so personally, "you hate". LOL.

My avatar shows me only after about five weeks into my first cycle I dabbled with a cycle when I was 18 but did not know what I was doing so most of my frame is or after this cycle at least was natural and back then I lifted higher reps lower weights and had pretty good gains. Probably genetics and my chest grew like a weed this way (as someone mentioned in this thread) however this time around with my cycle decided to lift heavy as that seems to be the common thought here and so far that is working out great as well. But the reason I decided I liked lifting heavy the most after this go round is the strength gains obviously far exceed that of light weights and that in itself is motivating to me during a workout. I do think that when I get into my cutting cycle though that I will be going back to the high reps low weights theory for chiseling. I do expect however to lose a lot of strength I had gained in the cycle but I am not competing in any strong man contest I am just competing in the gene pool for the ladies. Interesting the theories about this however good thread.

By the way I am not bragging or anything nor claiming to be huge in anyway just happy with what I have so far nothing more

I would have slimmed down before doing anything if I were you. High reps low weights does not get you cut LMFAO
