Steroids aren't for everybody bro. I went stupid when I first started to take them and was smashing them into me, my chest broke out in an unbelievable amount of spots and I had to go through treatment, I'm left with scars there now.

Don't do more than 2ml a week, if you do start to take them, that's enough. Not sure of your age, but I think minimum age should be 22/23 to use them and I think once you get past mid 30's then you are leaving yourself wide open to serious health problems. Don't take tablets, if you are going for it then use oil and inject it straight into the arse. Don't use other body parts, that's a load of bollocks. It has been proved time after time, that the arse is the best place to go and there's more cushion there.

What I've learned over time, is that putting plenty of food in you, a good protein shake after training and take something like the T bullets and you'll find this is just as good as any steroid.

See, you just put me off. Back to the drawing board for me.
 
Mr Balboa, I can get hold of gear, but the potential negatives always puts me off or I would get hold of it, my mate sells it. I'm at the, if I want them I'll learn more about them stage. Still in limbo.
A mate of mine hammered them when he was in his 30's after getting divorced, and he bulked up to about 18st despite only being 5ft 10". He lived in the gym and it served it's purpose, as he got endless quality snatch for about 2 years.

Then he realised he'd ****ed his kidneys......
 
I used to do a lot of road running messed up joints and find it painful running on the road so stopped, football was the thing when I was younger then gave that up. I have been doing Wing Chun for many moons now and concentrate on my Wing Chun only at the moment and that in itself is a proper work out, although I did join the gym a year ago to be more fitter and lean (not big) for my Wing Chun and only turned up 3 times maybe over a year, just find gym really boring cant get my mind on it at all....

I hate healthy foods but I do eat it a fair bit otherwise it kills me when training! I end up forking out around 20pounds for gym, 65pounds for Wing Chun membership and fair bit of private Wing Chun lessons a month 45pounds per hour, end up doing 3-4 a month! I should really cancel the gym as I don't even turn up these days but I keep forgetting as its DD, since I am talking about it now I might just call and cancel it actually <whistle>
Why not just go along to the normal classes? The Wing Chun class around here is only £7 for an hour and a half. There's about 8 people in the group, so it's more or less private anyway. Obviously I don't know your circumstances, though <ok>
 
Yeah I imagine that's right with weight training.

I see it every week, mate. Youngsters, usually, who want to try and impress everybody - so they grab some ridiculous weight. Best way round, for them that is, is they just do the exercise completely wrong by using all the wrong parts of their body to try and compensate for the high weight. Worst way, they hurt themselves - frequently the back!

It's not what weight training is about. They don't call it pumping iron for nothing. That's the right way. More blood, more muscle.

I love it, or I wouldn't do it.

As I don't have to work I'm in the gym 5 days a week, normally. I'm far fitter now than I was 20 yrs ago.

As for No pain, no gain, please, it's bollocks!...if you're genuinely in pain, you've hurt yourself. Stop! Ffs!!....

There is a difference between going to the gym and gawping at the young Spanish birds for an hour though mate :cheesy:

I do, I pay 65pounds per month for the lessons, 2 hour sessions twice a week and then to top that up I do the private sessions with the teacher, 1 hour of training privately is equivalent of a weeks training at least.

2hr sessions are pretty hard going in itself, nonstop training, no breaks, no water/drinks and no slouching because if you do then you get hurt by the guy you are training with as the punches and so on can land on your head, face and chest etc. Thing is though there are so many variations of Wing Chun teachers, you need a good one, who knows the stuff and they are hard to come by as well.
 
This is some of the training that I generally, it really does teach you a lot and at the same time brings your stamina up in a big way...

All about using your centre line to fight <ok>

This is the only martial art that was invented by a woman, if I'm not mistaken? I've been interested in this for a while now, it has hits own style with a lot of things. Wing Chun punch, Wing Chun press ups, etc. I'll be doing this one soon.
 
Played a hundred seasons of various sports and never warmed up before any game and spent absolutely no time in gyms .
The key to my very successful sporting career , be it an amateur career , is I've always gone to all games with a few beer at least in me , and smoke a big fatty just before game time . I've won many a Most Valuable Player for many sporting events following these few but strict rules .....Beer and Hoots

That's what legends has it but its not really proven whether it was a woman or not.
Should you decide to do it make sure you research the teacher, who will be teaching you as that makes a big difference, whether you learn properly or not, the teacher in that video is actually my Sifu and the guy is brilliant no nonsense teacher!
 
Ok, yesterday at gym i did;

10 minute cycle warm up
2500m on the rower on the highest setting, about 12 mins.
Then free weights and on machines; yesterday was chest and tri day so was flat bench press with bar, incline press on machine, cable fly's, tricep pulls downs.
Finished off with 20min steady state on treadmill then 10 minutes of 2 minute sprint/rest.

Tonight will be similar only will be shoulders and core. The off to the pub for the match, which will involve lifting roughly four to six pints from the table to my gob.

Squash tomorrow, then similar again Thursday.

That 9lbs is toast!

Not sure a man of your age should still be dicking about on roofs mate, as you must be the same age as Yoda ffs.

He can't be seen in public. People laugh at him.
