Steroids use during golden days of bodybuilding

Steroids use during golden days of bodybuilding, Like it or not steroids has been a big part of bodybuilding culture, but steroid use was nothing in 60’s and 70’s compared to today. 60’s and 70’s produced classic physiques like John Grimek, Steve Reeves, Clancy Ross and George Eiferman who embodied not only ascetic bodies but were also very strong men. They did more of compound exercises and weight lifting routines in their workout program and less or no steroids compared to today’s standard. Here is video where i discuss about it in detail.

The 70’s was the peak of bodybuilding with greats like Bill Pearl, Larry Scott, Dave Draper, Reg Park, Sergio Oliva, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Lou Ferrigno, Frank Zane, Franco Columbu and Ken Waller and many more. Each one of them had unique physique and had their own trade mark when it came to standing out on a competition stage. Even though it was the Austrian Oak who put bodybuilding on the map through his awesome personality and extraordinary achievements, each one of these other legends have contributed and paved way for bodybuilding to be in the mainstream. The era was more of hard work and toil in the gym to create these awesome physiques rather than become chemical infected bloated bodies.

Alistair Overeem vs. Andrei Arlovski Who Will Win ?

Alistair Overeem vs. Andrei Arlovski is a fight to watch out for and it will be an exciting fight. Ufc has always made some great match ups and this fight is one of them. UFC fight night Rotterdam is an exciting card and has some great matches but none can be as exciting as Alistair Overeem vs. Andrei Arlovski.

 Let’s look at what makes this fight so interesting? Firstly it’s between two explosive fighters and second of all these two fighters are from the same gym. The Reem or demolition man aka Alistair Overeem is fresh of great wins especially his destruction of JDS was very impressive. On the other hand Andrei is coming out of loss. A win over Andrei puts Alistair Overeem to fight for the title and what a moment it would be if he is able to capture the belt? If Andrei get defeated by the Reem then Andrei’s heavyweight title dream and run is over. Here in the video I give a detailed opinion on the fight and weigh in their strengths and weakness.

Why is Andrei upset with Alistair Overeem? Well, I think it’s more to do with his fear that he might lose to Alistair Overeem and if that happens then it’s a long road back to the top for Andrei. Another thing is that he might feel disrespected that Alistair Overeem took the fight when both are on the verge of getting a title shot. Andrei is a great fighter and has had great wins and shown great skills and heart in fights; it’s not going to be easy for Alistair Overeem to defeat Andrei Arlovski. One can never count out Andrei’s power. I believe Alistair Overeem has more experience than Andrei in terms of number fights and also the kind of opponents he has faced. I believe Alistair Overeem will win the fight, but hey it’s a fight! Anything can happen in a fight.

I am Too fat and want to lose weight

Before you run you got to walk and before you walk you got to crawl same thing applies to fitness and getting shape or getting shredded or contest ready.

Cut down consummation of grains and have paleo approach when it comes to diet. Consume more of lean cuts of meat and drink at least a gallon of water a day. Eat more protein and moderate carbs and your fat macros should come from fat content in proteins be it from red meat or chicken. Cut down on dairy and just go on a calorie deficit of say 250 to 400 calories less than your calorie maintenance.

Once you are consistent in your diet with the details I have outlined and walking for a month 6 days a week and 30 minutes a day, you will see weight melting off.

Intermittent Fasting, Benefits and Weight Loss

In this week’s episode I discuss my thoughts on intermittent fasting. How one can use it to build muscle and lean out.  “Experimenting is the key to success” intermittent fasting is not a diet but it’s a pattern of eating. You basically cut short the eating time frame and maintain the same amount of calorie intake as per you goal to shred or bulk. You can eat for 8 hours probably have two or three meals in these 8 hours of feeding and fast for next 16 hours straight.

The beauty of intermittent fasting is in its simplicity. It reduces blood glucose and insulin levels which improves the overall glucose metabolism. It helps build lean muscle mass and helps build strength to a great degree. Lowers blood pressure and oxidative stress, it also allows you to have free mind and brake the pattern of thinking what to think and what to not. It teaches body to adapt to hunger and fasting is fasting how much and how often you eat is left to you and your goals.
