You would need to train differently and eat differently for a couple of years consistently to get there and that's the hard part for so many reasons. It's not worth it if you don't actually want to.

indeed... this.

the quickest gains are made in the first 6 - 12 months, after that is where it becomes much harder to maintain and increase

Bro that is some bullsh*t if I ever heard it. Talk about stupid things to say lol. Most guys that have never been big can't comprehend that you can sit down and eat 1500 calories in one meal if you want to. Apart from alcohol I'm only at about 2500 calories a day from food.

I have no issues with big meals...infact I eat 750cal a meal upto 6 times a day to maintain my weight, again wasn't my point

Drugs if you're lazy. I did it with no drugs apart from caffeine and creatine. Iirc I was only on 3500 per day or so.

that would be about right, and obviously I was joking, but in saying that roids are not a miracle cure for the gym, still takes hard work and diet, but gives you the ability to train more often and harder, with better recovery etc etc. I get it and why people do it but wouldn't do it myself or recommend it

Lol ya turkey, this ain't about winning a point. I was showing that I have first hand experience. I'm sure we agree on most things, especially if you have some qualification in the field of fitness or diet/nutrition.

 

I still ain't swapping my meals though. If I wanna go through the hassle of changing my diet I'd rather go all out and fix it properly.

Ay if you're on 4000 calories a day and aren't a big fat fark then why didn't you ever post in the weight lifting thread?

wasn't trying to win, but you were disagreeing then proved that what I was saying had merit lol and I didn't say stop I just said you were better off fueling the body in the AM rather than the PM as youll store less fat given you are being a lazy carnt  

 

and 100% I got the qualification for myself given my previous role, the fact I used it to make money on side was also a good thing not that I do any more. I still have my wholesale supplier for supplements however, but my drive to train and deal with people was zero so closed it down

im starting to get into a big fat carnt because I no longer burn massive amounts of energy like I used to, looking after 7 people and 200mil of equipment, but saying that I still have a massively high metabolism so I can get away with it at current and I don't like to sit at home all day so im fairly active even if its not lifting.

 

im sure I did post some stuff in there ages ago
