Gaining muscles while losing fat. HGP tries the impossible, watch me fail!

[Wobmarvel]

Yes, 1-1.5 sec between reps, accommodating grip and halt swing. Goal is to do at least 4 reps with 110lbs at the end of it.

Do you dead hang and deactivate the lats or keep them activated and stop all movement?

 

[MrKleen73]

I am contemplating doing this myself. Do your feet touch the floor on your pull up bar, or do you just hang until a dead stop? My bar is on my rack and my feet touch the floor so to do this I will have to stand then pull my feet from under me to make sure i don't unintentionally jump when pulling. HMMM... Might give this a shot...

 

[hairygrandpa]

Dead hang has my toes touching ground. Deactivating everything and readjusting grip each time.

Exactly that -and no jump whatsoever. Its like singles deadlifting -no AMRAP.

Aaah singles. Never tried that. My bar is so low my feet are flat on the floor if I dead hang so I either bend my legs with feet behind or do something that was on athlean X where you hold your body at a 45 degree angle to the ground with legs straight and feet out front. Feels different in your back but can't use a weight belt doing that (or at least I can't)

I'm going for 4 with 10lbs !!

 

[hairygrandpa]

I'm going for 4 with 10lbs !!

Saw a vid on Markus Ruhl's channel, he can't do a single pull up with BW.
It means nothing, look at this monster.

 

[ChocolateClen]

I need to do this, I’m at 15 rn I want to get back to 30 again so this would probably help a lot lol. Endurance is shyte

I would prefer, by far, to be able to hit 9 reps with 33kg loaded pull ups than look like that guy.

Your pecker doesn’t count as ballast, Rocket!

Don’t worry, only one of those things is going to be possible for you in your lifetime, be sure. Ruhl was one of the craziest mass monsters the stage ever saw. Not a beautiful physique by any stretch, just insane.

 

[MrKleen73]

Yeah Ruhl was a true freak!!!

 

[hairygrandpa]

Yeah Ruhl was a true freak!!!

He still is, here his channel, sadly only in German:

[MrKleen73]

He is just so big he looks like one of those morph photos but is real.

Hard time wiping his butt, I bet.

 

[Hyde]

He’s got a guy for that

 

[hairygrandpa]

He’s got a guy for that

Or, he never sh1ts. Apparently all the food stays in, look at him!

 

[SkRaw85]

He is running at a 100% anabolic level. He poops fumes.

 

[Rocket3015]

It would be cool to be that big for a week !!

 

[MrKleen73]

Yeah no doubt, that is why pain face during the most muscular...

Pure Rotten eggs!

I wonder if he isn't relatively miserable being that big but can't get smaller without major emotional trauma. I hear huge guys not even as big as him talking about being miserable, or saying that they didn't even know how miserable they were until they lost some of it upon retirement or whatever and remembered what it was like to feel good and healthy.

I think it would probably be a two edged sword though. Seeing and hearing the reactions if you were at a show or expo would be awesome. The BS and judgement from the rest of the world as you walk by probably not so much.

 

[hairygrandpa]

Don't you think I'm not working out, because I didn't post workouts.

Today's highlight:
Progressive overload weighted pull ups:
+35kg (77lbs) x8/6
The week before was:
+33kg (73lbs) x 9/9

Only 2kg more and the struggle got real, LOL.

All other exercises were on machines, now hitting full load on all of them x10-12 reps.
My A.M. cardio sessions (and monthly rave) are bearing fruits. Now struggling to get HR up.
Before I got HR to 145-150 in about 2 minutes HIIT cycling -and by minute 5 up to 165 BPM.
Now struggling to reach 135 BPM.

 

[Rocket3015]

Cardio is no fun, but the results are real !!

 

[BOSSMAN]

Found a new buddy. He lives on my left biceps. I call him "Veindingo".

 

[MrKleen73]

You got to love finding a new buddy like that!

 

[Hyde]

I should start implementing morning cardio. I just don’t feel like I’m in shape to train really.

I do -but I hate every minute of it.

 

[Rocket3015]

No One Enjoys Cardio !!!

OK Maybe my sister she just got home from a 4,000 Bicycle Ride ............

 

[BEAST73]

I love cardio..

 

[Hyde]

I love cardio..

Damn, Rocket just called you no one

He's just a Beast !!

Man, wish you guys would come over to the underground. Your sense of humor would be appreciated for sure. You gusy always make my mornings. Thx.

 

[hairygrandpa]

Went with a friend to donate blood. That was a good idea, I was overdue. They tested my RBC and almost rejected me for too high RBC.
It was 20. I convinced them to do it anyways, as it will lower hemoglobin.

Now waiting until the pin mark has healed and donating again in another hospital.

In the US changing hospitals will not help, they keep a national Data Base, not sure how it works in Banana Land ??

Theres always the thread I look up google when i was figuring out how ot do at home "donate blood at home anaboic minds" i think is what i searched. A gatorade bottle where the indentation is up top is the same amt as filling a blood bag at donation, fyi. I forget who did the thread but he was a regular here a cpl yrs ago. Not sure if hes still around.

[xR1pp3Rx]

Oh I see how it is...

yep.....

 

[chem.jr.]

@Matthersby

Was it? I was actually thinking that possibly. Used a gatorade bottle in the backyard and it looked like something out of a horror movie or wtvr and everyone started jonesin on whoever for that...?
I tried to find it earlier on Google + it wasn't coming up so I guess my Search terms are incorrect but I used to know what to search because I would always look it up to figure out how far to fill the gatorade bottle. Now I know it's the indentation three-quarters of the way to the top on a 20 oz gatorade bottle

I was like "hmmmm, I have about 10 of those hoses so i guess I know what im doing out back this weekend as long as i can get some one to watch me bc i dont wanna pass out w a line hanging out of me and literally drain out."
Stack of Oreos and some gatorade and your good! And now im nore prone to just go to tractor supply and get 3 50ml syringes and load em up and chuck em in the trash can. I like to out em right om top for the trash man so maybe he thinks a vampire lives here, muahahaha

Currently running a short, toxic blast:
Test-e 500mg/w
M1A 40mg/d (split 2x20mg)
Msten 10mg/d
DMZ 26mg/d (split 16/10)
10-15iu slin PWO

Its day 10 and strength is way up -not using it to move heavy sh1t, doing more volume instead.
Appetite is fading away, currently force feeding. Lethargy is still manageable. Lets see for how long I can take that toxic stuff.

Oh ****!! I’m in! Whats your goal on cycle?

 

[chem.jr.]

Hgp rocking the slin, interesting.... I'm curious why not some igf-1 or MGF? And how do you like insulin? I have always been very intrigued as it's pretty obvious the pros use it but for some reason it has always freaked me out I feel like with my luck if I ever used it athletic purposes I would end up on it good. And that is one killer cycle, lethargy gets too bad or piss gets too dark I would probably drop msten all together and maybe knock DMZ down to 20 per day if you were looking to stretch it for another couple weeks. Just my worthless $0.02, keep us posted brother!

 

[hairygrandpa]

Oh ****!! I’m in! Whats your goal on cycle?

Recomp - like always. In combination with progressive overload AND volume. Starting to see results, hips got slimmer and some new veins are showing. Gonna stop the cycle as soon I turn yellow -or drop dead.

I experimented heavily with peptides in the past -but I'm not sold to it (besides Melanotan 2). Mike Arnold gave some good info on it and I agree, its not worth it.

I used slin for the past year 30 min before workouts, the "R" form. Intra workout I take a sugary drink with minerals and glycerin, accordingly to the amount of slin used. For me, 70gr sugar is enough with 10iu slin. Others should aim higher, like 10gr x 1iu. I never exceed 15iu -and I don't use slin with meals. Its to fill glycogen stores as quick as possible after workouts, because I'm a old fugger and it helps me with recovery and to train harder on consecutive days.

If sides get too harsh, I'll just drop everything, besides the test. My liver got beat up for most of my life -and I'll still need it for the next few years.
