Some Eastern European brudda was bare screaming in the middle of his sets today. Hella annoying
Hahaha that reminds me a few months back some guy would scream “LIGHT WORK” after every set and would be grunting like crazy. Pretty sure he was on roids.


They gave him a few warnings than finally had to ban him :dead:

Do somalis have higher metabolism than others? I can eat whatever i want and never gain fat. I can only build muscle but not gain fat. However some of my cousins were fat when they were in their early teens.

I feel like we have very diversified genes. Some inherit the high metabolism gene in my family and don't gain weight and others are fat as shit until they hit the gym. What is this strange phenomenom? has any nutritionist studied it. Perhaps we hold the Anti-fat gene and could isolate it and sell it to fat ppl who want their children to be slim.

My family are very diverse mashallah. Some have Madow hair, others have curly soft hair and few have hair as straight as rameses.

:ohhh::leon:

I have to eat right. My eldest brother can eat shit for days and will still be skinny but I’ll pack on the kilos. It’s calm though because I put on muscle faster than him (not as fast as my gym partner though) These short Madows are different.

Tbh i think it's genetic when it comes to body building. My cousin got the arnold genes and bulks up easy. My younger bro got the fat gene and struggles more, i was skinny but i'm on a medium build now and it's still hard to pack on the calories and gain more weight.

Trust me. Some just have the greek gody genetics. My uncle was a body builder in his young days and so was my father. Genes skip generations sometimes. A very strange topic to understand.

I idolise this body builder. He was the original black panther and should have won the Mr olypia instead of arnold in 75. A lot of ppl believed that he deserved to win. He had a impeccable body.

Serget nubret was a legend. Absolute goals.

As it gets colder and colder it’s getting more and more annoying to go to the gym. I don’t mind going gym but bloody hell I can’t be asked to go outside after I come home.
 
Trying to lose the weight I gained over summer lol.

Started 77kg in May now 85kg.

:bell::bell:

Just trying to do a slow cut to see my abs again but nothing too extreme so my lifts get worse.


Diet is one meal a day after gym.

1500 calories

200g of Protein so I don't lose too much muscle.


Snap, I've nearly been cutting for two months now.

Might extend it for another month considering my lifts aren't going down.

goal is to bench 315lbs touch and go close grip(since my shoulders got fucked up last time from normal grip) before 2020 ends and get back to BJJ/Judo during Summer time
 
I broke two records of mine two days ago, one for push ups and the other for military press, my push up record stood at 1,230 i broke that record by 904 so I'm at 2,134 now in one hour half time, and as for the military press my max was 120 kg and i broke that too by 15 kg so I'm at 135 kg for the military press.

All i can say is people it's all about the diet, you are what you eat simple.

you can strict standing miltitary press(no leg drive) 135kg? thats fucking impressive, whats your 1 rep max bench(no spotter touching bar, touch n go) and how much do you weigh?

I thought I had a decent strict standing OHP at 180lbs, but god damn roughly 300lbs is super strong. You got a video btw?

nah im tryna get to 3 plates by the end of next year, my 1 rep max atm for bench is 255 as well lol. I'm roughly 190-195lbs at a legit 5'9.5 or 176 cm and a legit 16-17% bodyfat. I'm just sticking with a recomp(maintenance for a while) till I hit my 3 plate bench. I gotta bench with close grip though since my regular grip fucked my shoulders up so its a bit harder, but at least I'll get bigger arms lol

You 100% have more potential to bench a lot of weight depending on your height and weight? If you're 6'3+, you should be in the 210lb+ range. The best benchers I know are all legit tall dudes, black dude who's like 6'5 actually broke the record recently for a 740 bench. Shit is legendary, did it with a pause as well
