    Anabolics and the Affects on America’s Youth

    For many users of anabolic steroids, the ideal age to begin using is in the late twenties, when testosterone production begins to fall. At this point, the body’s natural ability to build muscle begins to decline, and a synthetic source of hormones may be required if one wishes to continue building muscle size and strength at the same rate.

    Advanced Forearm Training

    The forearms are a muscle group whose training is debated among bodybuilders. Some bodybuilders feel that the biceps appear larger when the forearms are small. However, for beginner and intermediate bodybuilders, neglecting forearm training could mean putting oneself at a distinct advantage in compound lifts, due to the forearms being unable to maintain grip on a heavy bar.

    Weak Point Calf Training

    When beginners enter the gym, they typically select a standard calf-training routine from a magazine and follow it fairy closely. It’s typically 4 to 8 sets of standard mass-building calf exercises. However, as a bodybuilder becomes an intermediate or an advanced athlete, calf development – or lack of development in certain areas of the calves – becomes more apparent. When this happens, select exercises to emphasize the weak areas to induce growth. Read: Weak Point Calf Training Read

    Understanding Bloodwork for the Bodybuilder

    One of the biggest lies told by elite bodybuilders (who are experimenting with dangerous levels of chemicals) is just how good their blood work is. For starters, many of them lie about having any blood work done at all. To have a blood panel done, one must make a doctors appointment, admit to the doctor that you do consume potentially illegal substances, and face ones own mortality should the news come back grim. However, as we get older, and as we inject foreign and very often unknown subst Read: Understanding Bloodwork for the Bodybuilder Read

    Training on Instinct

    Once you’ve been training for 3-4 years, you begin to get a feel for what works and what doesn’t. More advanced bodybuilders often utilize a technique known as ‘instinctive training’. They enter the gym knowing what body part they will be training. If the mind-muscle connection isn’t quite there yet, they may start with some isolation movements to get the blood pumping into the area, and make it a medium-weight, higher-rep range day.

    Tips for Securing a Local Source

    When seeking a local source, the key is networking. Talk to as many people as you can about your goals, but don’t appear too nosy. Seek out the best bodybuilders in any gym, and strike up a conversation. Many are remarkably open about their use. Some will be looking to make a buck on the side, and may actually be looking for clients to sell their additional compounds to. Attend local bodybuilding shows and powerlifting meets, and visit gyms frequented by the more hardcore types. Read: Tips for Securing a Local Source Read

    Tanning for Physique Presentation

    A deep, dark tan can add the perception of additional muscle mass to the physique. Ever see the guest posers who hop up onstage under those bright lights completely white, and look like they’re very fat, even though they might be at 8% body fat? Bright lights- whether they are from the stage, the sun, or the boardroom – tend to wash out cuts and definition on the very pale athlete. Read: Tanning for Physique Presentation Read
