This is dumb. If you don’t have time for this, quit expecting to make progress. I don’t take time off like this. I haven’t taken longer than 2 weeks off in over a fucking decade. Here you are taking YEARS off yet whining about your progress made.
THAT MAKES NO FUCKING SENSE.[/quote]
I didn’t know that it takes more than a few months to make progress-only recently did I find out that most lean mass gains are glycogen/water weight. I was told that it’s v.v. hard to gain more than 5lbs of pure muscle (cells) a year
^^^
why didn’t anyone tell me this takes that much time?
With regards to that, how do movie stars get in shape so quickly (in a couple months) e.g. Christian Bale,Hugh Jackman,Will Smith[/quote]
Dude, go away. This is the wrong site for you. This is not an activity you do for three months and then quit for years at a time. The people making real progress are way more dedicated than you seem to think they are.
LIFE isn’t a fucking movie. No one is going to fix the lighting or distance the camera at an angle that makes you look huge without the effort.[/quote]
I don’t ‘quit’ for years-I am at University and still do my martial arts-that’s both aerobic and anaerobic and works on strength.
Also,nobody tells me how these movie stars get in shape for movies as soon as they sign the contract.
Will Smith was tall and skinny and in a matter of months he changes his body completely to have a physique like Ali.
Christian Bale had an average physique yet in several months he changed his body to become ‘buff’ for the Batman movies (there’s a clear difference between his physique in Reign of Fire and Batman Begins)
We hardly saw Hugh Jackman shirtless in Van Helsing/X Men but by the time Wolverine Origins comes around, he’s pretty ripped/put some size on.
^I assume the strength/size gains from glycogen are what come first and only stay for the short term if weight training is not continued. I have a similar time frame as them and the movie stars transform quickly-I assume the pure muscle gains are what last longest.
Please enlighten me on how it works for the celebrities but not me
