3dmj is a gold mine of knowledge

[@PeteMercerFitness]

I've been curious about this for the longest time. For a long time I was under the impression there is a direct corollary between weight and muscle gain. As I'm planning to compete next year I was unsure as to how much weight to put on before dieting (thinking the more the better). I couldn't find much information from pros, and I noticed you guys at 3DMJ are all pretty lean, even offseason, and that got me rethinking my original ideas. Good to have this perspective, thanks Alberto!

[@rafie89]

On that note would it not be fair to say that chris jones and matt ogus both consume too much protien that gets broken down and excreted as nitrogen and stored as fat

[@thenaturaloak]

I always make it that far! Keep up with the videos, thanks!

[@BetterAestheticsBB]

Great info!

[@MyoBrain]

About 3 weeks into my reverse diet after my first show and this is very helpful. I'm actually the future graduate student example you gave lol Great information coming from this channel lately. Keep it up!

[@BDspecial11]

Where did you get your shirt?

[@Derrikbulginheadin]

I would argue against competing at your previous weight. In my mind the whole point of the offseason is to gain muscle mass. If you're shredded 4% BF at 165lbs, and your plan next year is to come in shredded at 4% BF and 165lbs, there's no point to an offseason, but if you want to be shredded 4% and 175lbs, that's why you gain weight during the offseason, so if you consistently put on more weight in offseasons, you should be able to compete with more muscle mass at the same BF

[@AbrahamFr0man]

I liked this video even though I zoned out 3 minutes into it after I got confused about the dieting information and started thinking about Coca Cola.

[@nopainnogain27]

alberto. ryan dorris. eric helms =WINNING

[@nico3641]

For the 12 month program, how long should I take (months) to reach that upper weight limit? Should I get there in 1 month or 12 months?

[@ucejuicefitness]

That's an awesome shirt! Where'd you find it?

[@Casbear]

hey alberto, by stage weight, you mean with veins and striation

[@tswdan]

That shirt (and others) available at pamo[dot]spreadshirt[dot]com

[@MrNaturalBB]

I was getting a little worried when Alberto said you should compete around your previous contest weight..because i competed in June at 165lbs and had very good 4 months offseason going to 187lbs and now i competing again having dieted 11 weeks and.. i am at 173lbs and bigger and in better condition than earlier this year. I was thinking maybe I needed to try to get lower until you you explained (1) I am now 20 (2) i am now training properly (3) i fixed loop holes in my nutrition. Lol

[@Derrikbulginheadin]

Lets assume a bodybuilder has not reached their peak physical conditioning (I like to think that everyone has room to grow). Although I have my doubts, lets also assume that guys like skip la cour and jeff willet are natural athletes. La cour definitely didn't do his first competition at 225lbs and 4% BF, he progressively made muscle mass gains each off-season, as did Jeff Willet. Marc Lobliner has also made huge progress from when he competed at 150lbs.

[@RoccoDaOne]

Can't wait to eat again :(

[@iSquatTiLiDie]

so are you saying la cour and willet had some help? very curious

vid on info from .20-.40

[@Team3DMJ]

You can disagree no issue with that. Show me a top natural pro that has gained significant weight to his contest weight before you expand on this idea.

[@meatypoptart]

Wish i saw this a month ago! I gained 15lbs in one month after my show

[@Team3DMJ]

Where is an * when I need one. I will leave it at that when it comes to this. Think MLB and the recent splurge of HR records. I will leave it at that, and not question the work behind, it but surely some variables you are not informed about. -Berto

[@arigol2]

please respond

[@Onemanclan98]

matt ogus alone=CHAMP

[@floorfila8]

haha alberto talking about not getting to heavy - whats with your 250lbs Picture?^^

[@Onemanclan98]

dude matt ogus is the best man

[@szotakandrei]

I am 18 y.o. , i have been training for a year, 82 kg now, @ around 17-18 percent BF. i'll have a photo shoot in april-may, since I'm finishing 12th grade and I'd like to diet down to around 8-10 % BF... what bulking mentality/ aproach should I use? i thought about bulking until february, then take 2 months to diet down...will it be enough? i don't have much muscle mass, that's why i want to grow as much as possible during this winter.

[@TheAmazingMJM]

Should an 18/19 year old be attempting to gain as much as possible in that given time period or still approach bulking in a conservative nature?

[@BlackRavenHU]

marc lobliner is not natural bro. great guy tho

[@nopainnogain27]

are u trolling bro?

[@nopainnogain27]

yup u trolling

[@oOBashoROo]
