i don't understand why everyone must say "i don't wanna be big just wanna be ripped" "i don't wanna get bear body just wanna have male model look" "i don't wanna be huge i just want beach body"

They don't wanna accidentally get bigger than Arnold.

if you want to get ripped. Easy do 1 hour cardio a day 6 times a week .. and eat lesser than your body need. Maybe 1600kcal for a guy and 1200kcal for a girl.

Well ones can never bee too sure. Shit happens. Like Ronnie Coleman and Jay Cutler, they just overtrained for a few times they turned into that size. Accident do occur. So smart people take precautions, they tell themselves everyday so they dont end up tragically like Coleman.

1. train
2. eat all the crap under the sun
3.????
4. ifbb pro

5 months of hearing that while working at cf.... all from sticks who ended up not coming to the gym after a month... i guess they got the male model look and didnt want to overdo it.......

actually i don't think i can get into jay cutler size easily....
to me i jz wanna maintain my current size
especially my arm...
currently it's 14.5inch
at my height 168cm i think that if it goes any bigger
it will look awkward..

accidentally haha i loled so hard

u got bashed bcoz ur sentence underestimated the effort needed to get big. u made it sound as though it's easy.
and u r not the first newbie to say so.
imagine every now and then someone comes in and say:

'i want this model look/beach body/ripped body, but dun want too big'
i feel u r lucky u get bashed here and not being bashed on the spot by asking the same question straight to a real bodybuilder face to face.

i dont think all newbies are fully indulge/ aim to get big(powerlifter/ pro builder).
maybe they just express it the wrong way.
they should say, "i wanna have a ripped/ toned body".
then maybe you guys will not shoot them too much.

he's right. in fact if you would have used the search function, you would realize every now and then this kind of statement has been posted and ppl start to get sarcastic/angry about it.

i have heard the same kind of post since 2008 quite often enough...

let me clarify myself
the purpose i am saying i don't wanna be big it's becoz got to do wif my diet
my current diet is considered as eating lil for sum ppl here
so i add the 'i dun wanna be big' to support my diet
and i did say i wanna get ripped....
I never said that getting big like those ifbb pros will only take 5 months?
i understand those ppl take years and years of training
and pls understand I am not into this for only 5 months
i am looking of a lifestyle change
for long term
my current BF% i think it's too high
so i wanna reduce it 1st
bulk up later
my ideal weight wud b at arnd 68kg with <10%BF, cz my height is only at 168cm
thx for the bashings, i shall becareful wif the word big nxt time

HVT or HIT?? I've tried to do somewhat high volume and got DOMS. HIT i didnt feel much after doing it

Depends on your definition of ripped I guess!

Is it:
This


OR

This

1st one boss...
but slightly smaller
cz not as tall..

That's why we are harsh bro,to get even a smaller body than that it requires a lot of food and hard work!

I know you get it now but people tend to think its easy to be as big as Randy,matter of fact is its not!

Guys, when we are working middle/lower back, how exactly should we feel? Should we be feeling soreness during the workout? The thing now is the feel I'm getting is different from other body part, it feels like doing it wrongly..

i wo 5 years and im not even there....cheers

Chow

Yeah.. I don't expect to get it within a year.. But I believe foundation is important right? So as I start I wanna seek advice from fellow forumers, whether am I on the right track a not

Interested to see how pic 1 looks like but the link broken already...?

what exercise did you do for ur middle/lower back? Soreness during workout? No. Doms, Most definitely, I can barely wear my own shoes last week because my back was so tight.
