Most of those huge guys dont need to diet though. When you carry that much muscle mass you can cut on 5-6k calories per day. In order for them to gain any weight they have to eat everything in site including fatty meats and whole foods. They cant get the calories they need in a day eating clean or even semi clean. I have a friend here in Miami that weighs around 260 and eats like shit. He will go to Macdonalds and order 10 cheese burgers and a bunch of other shit and eat it in one sitting. He sports an 8 pack all year with ab veins and has 21 inch arms. If he does not constantly eat he will get smaller. It is a full time job maintaining that much mass on your bones with out loosing it. It is an every day battle with no breaks in between. My friend even gets up every 3 hours to eat a tub of cottage cheese during the night. Its one of the only semi healthy foods he eats all day.

I soemewhat agree with most of this and I believe genetics is a big deal in these situations

Well as for my training. I really mix it up alot, i like to keep my muscles guessing and one should even be getting stiff no matter howlong they have been training for. I find myself feeling stiff the next few days after a workout 90% of the time. like i mentioned i never do the same workout 2 times in a row. When i go into the gym my main objective is too really get the muscle filled with as much blood as possible. Whether on that day thats training very light and doing a ton of reps or if its going in and training very heavy. I do alot of drop sets, supersets and have recently tried doing giant sets. There are days when i go in and train very heavy, I love getting under a huge squat and a huge bench, but i dont do it all the time. And when training heavy that still means correct form and hitting at least six reps. I also like pre exhausting the muscle with isolation movments and then go to the more compound movements. So all in all i really mix it up and like i say the main objective is to really get as much blood into the muscle as possible so its really really pumped. I also feel mind muscle connection is very important. If u not mentally focused on that specific muscle u working when training u wont get 100% out of ur workout. If u training and are thinking about what u going to do the next day u might as well go home. I train six days a week, the sixth day is normally touch ups or i use the sixth day as a day to train a certain muscle twice that week.

Well my food bill is going to go up drastcally now.......For food , i would say to save urself money find a meat wholesaler that has a good reputation and order ur meats and stuff u can freeze and keep for along time in bulk. U will get a way better price than going to the grocery store and buying weekly. Plus f u keep on going back to the same meat wholesaler and build a good relationship with them they will give u even better prices. For supplments i get from the person that supplies most of the supplement shops. So i get the same price as what the supplment stores buy for. I pay the wholesale price instead of retail price. So my best advice is to network, ask around. All this will save u quite a bit of money. Network network, the further up the pyrimid u buy the cheaper u get for. Thats my best advice i can offer u in how to uy for cheaper if u dont have a sponsership.

Well my eating has been very poor. I eat cleanly but i under eat by alng way. Like i mentioned, if i eat around 200-250 grams of protien a day thats a good day. I have one day a week where i eat whatever i want and thats on a sunday. My eating has been my biggest set back, but thats all going to change.

Luke Wood was kind enough to help me out with my eating the other day. I know my physic is going to respond drastically to this change in my eating that he made. I have been assing around for way to long with my eating and now its time to grow and add on a span more muscle and progress alot more quickly. so with me eating the way i should be i will see huge results, i know it. Time to ake my physic to the next level!!!!

So thank u somuch Luke, it was really kind of you to help me out. I know ur help will make a huge difference....I dont set boundries so the skies the limit!!!!

Im a big carb eater, i have a fast metabolism so i can eat alot of carbs, my body needs it. My carb intake all depends on how im feeling, i purely go by how i feel. some days i feel i need to eat more carbs than on other days. I eat around the ranges of 600-900 carbs a day. Just wish i could keep that protien intake high and constant. Im bad with my eating, stupid i know.

Thats why i really would like some professional advice and help with my eating as i feel my progress and gains would be somuch faster. Because my eating has never been great i know when i start to eat the correct amount my body will respond drastically. When i say my eating isnt great i mean i dont eat enough , i do eat clean though.

I train 5 or 6 days a week. And i normally take a full week off training when im starting to feel over trained and that normally comes around every 8 weeks or so, i just listen to my body. If im feeling constantly depleted, tired and find im not feeling the same in the gym thats when i take off one week just to recover. I have learnt that more is not always better, we dont grow in the gym we grow when we are resting. Plus if u are over trained u are prone to injuries, u wont be training to ur maximum effort , all in all u will be just doing yourself more harm then good and waisting ur time. After that week off when i get back into the gym i feel like a new person.

For example its 1:00pm here now and i have only eaten once. So on that note i must go cook now.

Are any of us happy with ourselves in this sport, i dont think so but we can at least be satisfied. I guess always wanting to improve is what drives and motivates us. I am definatley very critical of myself.

The last time i weighed myself i was 292 pounds, but i dont really get on the scale that much. I would rather let the mirror be the judge. Yeah its great to see ur wieght go up but u want that weight u adding to be good quality muscle, not water and fat. I have a fast metabolism so i stay lean. I eat cleanly 5 and a half days a week cause on saturday evening and sunday i eat whatever i want. I just have days where i really battle to eat the amount of protein i need, and i dont get in the correct amount. I must tighten up on that. If anything i find myself under eating. Which i know is hindering my progress.

So we will see what happens when i eventually get up on stage lol........

Train Hard and stay strong !!!!!

that doesnt sound bad to me...he eats just doesnt get enough protein...obviously it work for him though look at the size he has put on..if the guy had his diet dialed in who knows what he would look like

It just proves that great genetics and steroid abuse can take you far.
 
To me it proves that 2 grams of protein per pound of lean mass is not exactly necessary and not written in stone. The guy seems really humble and descent by the way he talks. he is his own worst critic and is admitting openly to his weaknesses. would be interesting to see him get his diet dialed in and get on stage.

If he worked with a prep guy who knew his shit he could make some big waves in the IFBB. There is no doubt about that.
