Maybe they are just trying to maintain. Maybe Jon is taking it easy right now from some sort of small injury or something going on like that? This could be part of the reason he is no hurry to get back in a fight.When I was training twice a day, 4 days a week for a few months, I was around 5000cal a day. I was losing weight. BUT, though I was eating healthy, it was just basic nutrition. Wasn't maximising nutrient density.
Stan has a wealth of knowledge but even I can't see around that 4k being enough.
That said, JJ frame is not as thick as other tall HWs so I guess that is maybe enough to increase without lovehandles.
I am ordering creatine ASAP, already have fish oil
You are an idiot Jones wants to become a 300lb mass monster no government trained 160lb nutritionist knows more about that than Stan Efferding he is a powerlifter before a bodybuilder and has worked with professional athletes for decades. He broke the 40 year old world powerlifting world record in 2013. His world record still stands. He was a much more successful powerlifter than bodybuilder. He is not some big dumb bodybuilder he is very intelligent and knows his shit and a proven champion. If you want to get big and strong he is the foremost expert in the World. Meanwhile a 160lb nutritionist doesn't know a godamn thing about any of that stuff.
Never understood it either. It’s good to be jacked but this seems a bit obsessive.Heh
Never understood the point of being built like that. It doesn't look good and most girls i talked to don't find that attractive at all , it's impractical and you have absolute shit cardio and stamina. You are strong sure but that's about it
That's my personal opinion. No offense intended to anyone who is into bodybuilding
Dont forget the electrolytes and Tribulus Terestris Testo Booster. With them you will manage 100lb of pure muscle.
I never ever said he was dumb. Actually I think he is quite competent. But its boring to discuss with you as you obviously have no clue about the professions I talked about. The red flags I meantioned are from his successes with massive steroid abuse and more. Thats his special vertical "diet" . And yes I think thats the way Jones goes again. No way around if you want that much quality muscle for a fight on top of your frame.
This guy is there for some bonus PED regime advice.
Would love to know how you came to that conclusionStrikes me as a guy who is insecure with his symmetry or lack there of.
Strikes me as a guy who is insecure with his symmetry or lack there of.
training and eating natural is completely different than doing so on ped's.I would take advice from a 300lb bodybuilder on how to eat to gain weight over some book read nutritionist all day everyday and twice on Sunday
I work with strenght trainers in my profession and respect them if they educate themselves with evidence based training approach.
Efferding is managing training load which is not that difficult to do but ok he is right that a lot of mma coaches dont even do that.
BUT and thats a big but. If you coach professional athletes its a huge red flag if your coach uses roids to this amount. Thats an absolute NOGO. I wont condemn him for using in the past. Pro Bodybuilding you have to, end of story but continuing to do so AND coaching young athletes from different sports is fucked up.
That he "developed" his own diet ok Its a marketing tactic I get it but I really hate all this false marketing with his own sucess story when they leave out the roids they ate like cherries. Its dishonest and I would not work with such a coach. The diet itself is ok but basically its what most professionals would advise. The thing is if you are a pro you will always need a specific eating habit that fits your situation and no programm itself does that.
To me this coach puts up several red flags.
Haha for real? I couldn't think of a word less relatable to Stan than "insecure".
You guys never heard of overcompensating? It was a joke.Would love to know how you came to that conclusion
You think Jones is natural loltraining and eating natural is completely different than doing so on ped's.
he's not on what that guy is on......he's not on a bodybuilding stack.Stan was also Mike Tysons strength and conditioning coach
You think Jones is natural lol
he's not on what that guy is on......he's not on a bodybuilding stack.
but i'm sure you think he is.....
i was only responding to the idea that a giant bodybuilder is the best guide to fitness and strength advice for natural athletes. i do think he knows his shit but i don't know that much about him.Serious question, do you really think Stan doesn't/can't differentiate programming between his natural and enhanced clients? I'm genuinely curious. I can't say what extra things are included in Jon's supplements but to think that someone with decades of high level strength training knowledge wouldn't be the right person to tailor an individual program for someone is kind of silly.
