One key thing to remember also (and I don't know if they touched on this), is that the concept of "heavy" is relative. I might consider a set of 200 lb bench presses heavy while another guy might only consider it moderate. Your muscle don't know the exact amount your lifting, all they know is how much effort they're producing. So, while you should always train heavy, you should train intelligently. Mass doesn't come just from "heavy" it comes from using more effort than you did the last time. It actually becomes very instinctual too. Obviously if your whole body is quivering just holding the weight, then it's too much for you. There's no shame in reducing weight a little until you find that "sweet spot" where your muscle is being challenged just enough to grow yet not so much that your courting injury. Train heavy, train often, train smart. And R.I.P Mr. Weider💪

Matarazzo had freaking awesome arms and calves. Just freaky!! And none of that synthol shyte either. I see posts online where people are accusing bodybuilders from the 90's, even as far back as the '70's and Arnolds biceps of being full of synthol. Synthol wasn't invented until '96 and I assume took at least a year or two to get well known. Matarazzo had the awesome arms well before '96
@dkes604910 жыл бұрын
Yes, he was the best there was when it came to arms and calves. Mike was just massive over-all. You can see his sheer bulk at 23:43, and the guy in black looks like a little kid. The only person who could rival Mike then was probably Paul Demayo (RIP). Paul was about 2 years younger, just as tall with about the same sized arms and calves, but had bigger thighs and a fuller chest. I think Paul was stronger over-all. Met them both in Boston when just a kid, and was just totally in awe at their massive muscles and intimidating size.

Funny, years ago, an investigative report had Weider products tested. It didn't do anything, so The report went to interview Joe Weider. Joe Weider's next in command said Joe Weider was out of town but he could answer any questions. The report explained that Weider ads were misleading because the products they sold didn't do anything. The assistant said they never claimed their products did anything. In the meantime, as the video was filming, you could see Joe Weider pacing back and forth, outside of the office, listening to the interview. The report said the ads showed a muscular body builder, insinuating that the products would make you look like that. The assistant's answer? We can't help what people think. After that news program and decided never to try Weider's products.

Dude, don't sweat it! Look, for example, at the Paul Anderson story, who was one of the strongest people of all times. At 22, when he was breaking world records, he didn't look very muscular - he looked fat - but boy, were there layers of muscle underneath. My advice: 1) People, including girls, will sense that you're strong, and will be drawn towards you even without a "six-pack". 2) Lift your way out of the fat, not diet your way out. Your strength gains will at least stall while you're dieting. Lots of protein, complex carbs, beans, veggies, over 6 or so meals, and your weight will come down because your body will be a muscle-building furnace. 3) Lift like a powerlifter (squat, bench press, deadlift), supplement with extra glute (gluteus maximus is the largest muscle mass in your body, train them special with hip bridges & thrusts a la Bret Contreras) & core work. That'll build the strength you want, burn the most calories & help you beat up anyone who calls you fat...
