How Achieved Freaky Growth Achieved in Less Than 6 Weeks the Freaky Big Naturally Way
Thursday, November 1st, 2007HI Everyone,
Just wanted to give a quick update as I am now just 24 days away from the Natural Mr. Olympia and I wanted to give everyone a head’s up to some bodybuilding breakthrough’s that I have made in the last 6 weeks.
Due to the limited time of my preparations for the show I recognized I had to break all my previous mental constructs about what is possible for training and recovery. After I assessed my physique after my wins at the INBA Canadian IVKAR Cup Nationals I realized that I needed to make some major improvements to stand up against the worlds best at the INBA Natural Mr. Olympia.
Basically I needed to bigger, and leaner and in record time… perhaps that sounds familiar?
So I took a hard look at the Muscle Mastery Course which I recently released with Matt Gallant and concentrated on how I could tweak these principles and basically compress time. Here’s what I came up with.
Instead of training my whole body once per week or even twice, I decided to train it 3 times per week.
I split my workouts in to a double split routine, training legs and shoulders superset fashion in the morning, Arms and abs in the evening, then the second day is Sprinting on the rebounder in the morning and chest, back and calves in the afternoon. I repeat the cycle and take a day off when my body is really tired usually every 4th or fifth day.
Volume is extremely high as I do between 35-40 sets per workout rep ranges from 12-4 with the rep cycling program as outlined in the Muscle Mastery course.
I am also pounding loads of ionized water and huge amount of MassZymes, Precision Probiotics, and hemp protein. My diet is very bear bones with hemp, apples, and hemp oil as the main staple with a salad thrown in once a day. I will eat some more complex carbs every 3-4 days to keep energy levels high and my muscles full.
I also see my chiropractor once every 2 weeks, and add a massage in there every two weeks plus a host of vitamins, minerals, Vitamin C and super nutrients to fuel my training. Although my diet is very low in Calories it’s so nutrient dense I have plenty of energy for intense bodybuilding workouts.
The results.
I am up 8.5 pounds since the my show and I am way leaner. This of course is remarkable gains that have even surpassed my wildest expectations. With just over 3 weeks left for the show I hope to add a couple more pounds of muscle and take off another 2-4 pounds of fat to come in razor sharp for the big day.
So what’s the bottom line… Basically after 20 years of training I broke past all previous records because I through out what was possible and reached for the impossible. I firmly believe this mental approach has been a key component in the results. The funny thing is it took this long to get to point where I was willing to let go what I know to discover something I didn’t. That’s the beauty of surrendering to the impossible. I suggest you do the same in your workouts and see what you can achieve!
