"starchy" carbohydrates such as rice, potatoes, bread and pasta that make you fat! One area where
many of the old timers look as good, if not better, than today's bodybuilders is in abdominal
development. No ephedrine. No clenbuterol. No diuretics. They ate meat and drank whole milk by the
gallon yet they were sharp as razors (with great skin tone I might add). Getting in shape for a
contest didn't take months. These guys were always in shape. Just a few days of eating clean and
they were ready to step on stage. Back in the days when athletes such as boxers needed to lose
some fat in order to make their weight class, the only advice they were given was "lay off the
starches." That's because it worked!
BE SMART WHEN IT COMES TO PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENTS...
When Dianabol was introduced in the 1950's, its negative side effects were unclear and some
bodybuilders were willing to "take a peek under the covers", as it were, and explore the
possibilities. None of them seem to have suffered any ill effects and years later many of them
look remarkably good for their age. I don't think we'll be saying the same about some of the
"walking science projects" competing today when they get to be around 50 years old.
Here's a great method for...
NATURALLY INCREASING TESTOSTERONE...
It comes from one of the forefathers of modern bodybuilding, Angelo Siciliani better known as
Charles Atlas. Did you know that the excessive heat from a hot shower can lower your sperm count?
In fact, the Aztec Indians used this as a form of birth control (don't ask). Anyway, Charlie
recommends finishing off your shower with cold water. Allow the cold water to flow from the solar
plexus onto the genitals. The belief was that these areas contain the highest concentration of
nerve endings, therefore, the cold would stimulate the nerves which in turn strengthened the
entire nervous system. "Stimulate" is certainly the operative word here. I can attest to its
effect since I've been doing this for some time now. It takes a little getting use to but it sure
is an eye opener!
LEARN TO TRAIN AROUND INJURIES...
Back in a time when not only was there no money in bodybuilding but it wasn't even considered an
acceptable activity, bodybuilders trained out of the sheer love of the sport. If an injury
occurred, the idea of losing a workout was unthinkable! There would be no coddling of injuries
either. Exercise was always considered a healing activity.
Today, more and more doctors are prescribing exercise instead of bed rest for many ailments that
were thought to need "inactivity." Hurt your elbow? Work legs again. Chances are they can use it.
When was the last time you worked your abs so hard they were sore the next day? If you really want
to make progress, there is always something you can do. Again, use a little imagination.
These are just a few of the long forgotten techniques that may still prove valuable. In this age
of hi-tech exercise machines and computerized diet plans they may seem quaint and simplistic but
they worked once for others and they will work again for you.
Maybe someday you'll be passing along this information to a neophyte of the game and it will seem
new all over again. For now, start incorporating some of these rediscovered secrets on your own.
Along with all the current advancements in training and nutrition, they can bring about a whole
new dimension to your bodybuilding progress. The best of the old combined with the best of the
new. Now that's progress.
SPELLING IT OUT
Here are two simple guidelines that may help put a proper eating procedure in order. After a
while, eating right will seem like the most natural thing in the world.
One: Eat Protein At Every Meal.
I can't make it any simpler than this. As a bodybuilder, you MUST make protein your main priority.
That doesn't mean you need to eat skinless chicken breasts three times a day. It just means that a
bowl of pasta isn't a meal. Eating crap just because you're hungry is worse than not eating at
all.
And two...
Follow The Old Rule of Protein Grams.
Way back when, someone wrote that a good guideline of protein consumption was one gram per pound
of bodyweight. At first it was accepted, then repeated, and before long, everyone assumed it was
an indisputable fact. Then came the scientists. They discussed it. Disagreed with it. And
eventually discredited it -- for no other reason other than they weren't satisfied with the "non-
scientific" reasoning. Well, as it turns out, the one gram of protein per pound of bodyweight
isn't a bad rule after all. Of course, it's an estimate. But if you shoot for it, and get close,
you'll be in the right range.
One gram per pound may seem simple enough but to those who've been following a "normal" diet will
attest, that's a LOT of protein. But by making this a priority it automatically keeps the fat and
carbs in check. [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
