Not all powerlifters are fat Bella - and a fat guy with muscle is still a guy with muscle. This is not diet discussion it is muscle building discussion
Talking of competitive bodybuilders - remember GN1? I just saw his posts in that Q&A thread. I just looked to see what his training was and it was DC training. That bodybuilding training that requires you to and completely revolves around you constantly pushing the weights up on every exercise as much as possible
Yes, I do. Often actually. With tangible results, improvements & proof. And most of all, no injuries
Do you?

Your post reeks of ignorant is the reason I ask, trotting out the old fat powerlifter line, have you ever been in a PL gym, to a PL comp?
Bazza is 95kg and on the road to a 300kg deadlift with a 33" waist - beast physique. Freako is mid 90kg's top 20 PA, natural - beast physique. The guy spouting isolation and low weight high reps "bodybuilding" training is 75kg.
At the end of the day the proof is in the results. I know who I would take training advice from.

http://ausbb.com/bodybuilding-training-discussions/18148-question-about-reps-3.html#post287736 "Just keep increasing your volume over 80%" "I do not believe that 1-5 reps is strength, 6-10 reps is for hypertrophy and 12+ is for endurance. The studies that showed this were done on untrained teenagers on machines. Of course singles didn't work for them. Any rep range will give you good hypertrophy. It is maximising your volume 80% that really matters. If you keep rest periods very short you can get great progress with singles but generally sets of 3 will beat singles for total volume."

http://ausbb.com/bodybuilding-training-discussions/18148-question-about-reps-2.html#post286854 "Number of reps doesn't matter. 1 rep sets, 20 rep sets, whatever.
Just stress the muscle and increase your volume over 80%."

Then they would have their opinion and others would have theirs."

Bazza is not a PL'er.
He's a footy player, who lifts weights. He said so himself. He has a great body & is strong as hell. But he's no PL'er.
I never said PL'ers were fat. I was referring to the pictures 0ni posted & their relevance in this thread?
And I'm not forking out advice, I'm still learning, as are we all.
Came for information, left with a headache.
As usual.
Ignorance indeed.
Good to see you realised that. Keep up the informative, posts full of well educated opinions formed from time under the bar.
The fact that you think I spend no time under the bar, shows your ignorance.
This is the BB'ing training section, not the e-dick measuring section.

I hate the PLvBB shit as much or even more than anybody and in this case as it is in nearly every other cases, it is not a fight between PL'er and BB'ers, its a fight between lifters who prefer a certain training style, but in certain cases through blatant ignorance, at the expense of all other training styles.
If a legit BB'er with years of training experience under their belt comes on here and says train this way instead of that way then people should have reason to listen but when an inexperienced neophyte tries to suggest that their way is best I will always shut them down.

haha how convenient of you to bring up gn1
No hate, but Bazza's not a powerlifter brother.

I am arguing that progressive overload is the number one thing that drives progress as a bodybuilder and strength athlete. Without it, you do not become strong and you do not become big. I would like to see anyone refute this successfully
It was amusing tho when elmo refuted it then inferred that to be successful I needed to increase my bench
If your training gets you stronger and you're adding weight to the bar... you're training to increase your strength. It may not be your primary objective but it is still happening. If you increase your bench from 10x60kg to 10x100kg then you will be bigger. You don't get an increase like that without correct diet or with shitty training

I appreciate what you're saying Ben & have a great deal of respect for you. You know your shit, prove it & back it up.
Most people on this forum could be regarded as beginners or novices where weight training is concerned, full stop.
The crap these threads degenerates to is ridiculous. Information & knowledge is meant to be shared, to assist & support those of us learning, to improve. With all the vagina bumping going on, there is no clarity to any valuable advice or information. And all the fucking wiki copy n pastes in the world, don't make up for lack of tangible results.
Brad has a good physique, he's been on a journey & I am proud of his commitment & progress, just as I am of anyone who actually has results to back their opinions up.
Unfortunately often the most verbose dick measuring competitions on this forum, are dualled by people, who do not.
