If you guys want to hear REAL bodybuilders talk about shit, go watch Fouad Abiad's YouTube channel.

I've followed him a long time and the guy is awesome. No bullshit to try and get likes or follows, he just tells it his it REALLY is.

Bodybuilding and Bollocks (his show with Luke Sandoe)
 
Yup. Been listening to it on YouTube while I'm working. Bodybuilding and Bollocks is great
 
Agreed its one of the best bodybuilding channels on youtube. I appreciate that it stears clear of the gossip side of bodybuilding that people like nick trigili lives in
 
Been listening to him and his project with Luke as well. Very upfront. He dirty bulks like a motherficker compared to you though monte lol.
 
Gonna check this out, thanks brother.

Nick Trigili is a no-brain cringeworthy dingbat.
 
What questions about real bodybuilding do you have? Abiad's video about training intensity is mostly on point. On forums, in the gym, I see people making the same dumb mistakes again and again. And again.

Obsessing over every little detail of their training and diet. Obsessing over every little detail of their drug program. Not putting enough effort into their training. Even during contest prep I don't count anything except maybe protein. Constantly reviewing all the above thinking that this change or that change is not going to put you on track to become champion.

I see picks of guys on this forum running tons of gear and they barely look like they train.

After 43 years in this sport (17 competitions and I have prepped man more) I can tell you this: The guys that are good, high level amateur and pros, they find what work and stick with it. They are an ape in the gym and then a rat on a treadmill. Many are dumb as a rock but they have someone like me running the details of their drug program.

I don't eat 6 meals a day. I don't eat breakfast. I don't go to bed hungry. I don't pound carbs/protein immediately after training, I eat a big meal an hour later. I stay 9% body fat year 'round.

On the other hand, I train like a raped ape. Vey few people train hard, and that is where they fail. Steroids, food....none of that matter if I am not training (and recovering) with maximum intensity.

Also, many do too much training volume, and not enough intensity. You must understand that the training is the stimulation for muscle growth. Actual growth occurs when you are eating, resting, sleeping.
 
If you don't have time to watch videos, are these available as podcasts to listen in the car?

Always enjoyed listening to him rational head on his shoulders unlike the majority.

Just listen to the YouTube video in your vehicle? If you can listen to pocasts, you can listen to youtube.

Wow...and most ppl you talk to say that while training is important it's the eating you do outside the gym that makes the difference. That abs are built in the kitchen not the gym.

So you just train really hard and then eating is sorta whatever the fuck, but still get to 9% year round. NICE.

I don't think that's what he's saying. He might be able to eat whatever but most of us, no matter how hard you train, can't.

The point I think he's making, and I agree with it, without the training, nothing else matters. It facilitates the growth and userls the food. That's why I prioritize training first and nutrition second but, it's close.

Although I know some genetic freaks who barely train but look better than most people who train hard and run gear.

Yep. If you have an iPhone just go into the podcast app and search for real bodybuilding. Not sure about android.

I agree with this first part.

But train as you might, if your eating is poor or you consume too many calories , you are fucked.

No training will compensate for excessive calories. IMO

LOL at my ignorance. I had no idea. Thanks, Montego1. I'll be researching how to do this. I often find myself with videos I would listen to, but don't have the time to sit there and watch in front of the computer screen. I do have time frequently when driving.
