[hardcoreback]

can i ask? do u want physiques like a bodybuilder or are you into figure?

[live4fitness]

They are pretty much the same unless you do drugs. Girls can't get that big. I don't really want either I just want to look hot in a bikini!!!!!

I might be able to lift a lot but i don't look like it. You have seen my pics I look normal

[live4fitness]

do you ever go to bodybuilding.com? they have great atricles about all kinds of stuff and great pics of people at all stages of the sport or nutrition, RYn recommends this site to a lot of people and it is one of my favs

[live4fitness]

[hardcoreback]

there u go again mentioning that site... lol :P youll be banned for that, nah! kidding.. anyways, yah i did visited it.. mostly on a weekly basis.. i even read mostly everything on it... i had also visited many sites, like that of flexonline, muscleandfitness, t-nation, and etc.. why dont u try t-nation its a best site..

yah it monitors all bodynuilding mags and comments on its contents... :)

[live4fitness]

I will take a look at it. always wanting to learn!!!!!

[hardcoreback]

really?!! i donnu.. maybe my way will be the latest someday.. its gonna be called "THE NATURAL UNSTRICT WAY" lol.. but really we have many guys here who eat **** and works all day long but still maintain below 10% bodyfat, really! well, some competitors used diuretics.. some synthol... but i wont be taking any of it... many died becoz of it.. and to live clean is to train clean... :)

[live4fitness]

yes if you want to grow you need to eat alot and good food too

[hardcoreback]

can i ask a favor?

[live4fitness]

yes

[hardcoreback]

cna u for once post on the hep forum? i wanna let them know u know me.. they think am the guy they all hate which is kinda bothering me.. will you? :(

[hardcoreback]

lets forget the hep stuffs, ok? u know what supplements here are very arer to be found.. the most popular here is aminos by weider lol.. kidna funny for us.. some do drug abuse but cant seem to be on the pro level....

[live4fitness]

but remember nutrition is key. If you can't right you won't reach your goals

[hardcoreback]

and u see, ive long full muscle bellies whihc makes it much bigger that it actually is.. i really wana compete too, ok, if had already competed or to compete tell me, ok? i'll be glad to know that... dont u wanna enter figure olympia perhaps?

[live4fitness]

no I wouyld never make it to the olympia, that is for the best, remember when you compete the diet is real strict, no ice cream no cheat days no soda. It is real hard.

[hardcoreback]

i dont think so... long as ur taking things happily and training well i think ur gonna be the best bodybuilder in town.. indeed ur not gonna be the freakiest guy on stage but ur gonna be the only one with no gyno and distented belly.. :) u can do it ya know.. u just need to believe it... u got what it takes..

[live4fitness]

your telling me this the one who drinks sodas and eats icecream. Can you stay away from ALL junk for 12-14 weeks?

[hardcoreback]

WELL, I  cant, but u know sometiems indulging for it is kinda ok at all .. eating a piece or even the whole bunch of icecream wont hurt ur physique ya know... :)

[hardcoreback]

well, i hope ur metabolism is quite like mine.. i can anything and still wont get fat.. hehe well, just a bit of tummy i guess... but truly i dont get fat... :)

[live4fitness]

when you compete there is NO cheating or there won't be any cuts, no matter how fast your metabolism is, you want to be 3% or lower.

[hardcoreback]

yah... and i had alo visited all the sites of possible bodybuilders ever.. from jack lalane to the latest ones... and u can indeed contrast to what their trainign and philioosphies are... thats why i was telling you my only problem is dieting and nutrition... hehehe i knew a lot in training already... :) but tnx very much kar..

[live4fitness]

train clean good concept that also means eat clean!!!!! Good luck on changing thing. You really need to buy a ebook called "burn the fat, feed the muscle" I know about the people who eat what they wnat and look good, oh boy do i know

[live4fitness]
