Don't know about the first part, but the second part I think you're absolutely correct. His wrestling is his only skill that translates to HW, and It hasn't looked real great for a while. He has never been super elusive and the added weight will make him slower and even more stationary. Plus the fact that he has no stopping power and his length advantage will be diminished or nullified, in the standup he will just be an average HW kickboxer. Nothing special. He will have to call on his wrestling.Ehhh footballers put on lbs of muscle easily in a single ota. If you have access to trainers its not impossible. Hell ive done it. But he will feel sluggish. I went from 155 to 180 weight lifting and felt slow as shit. So im curious to how his body reacts. I believe jones wont be standing. He ll be using wrestling 100pct in any hw matchup
But even 5 pounds of muscle? Seems tough to do at his age. Correct me if I'm wrong but to gain lean muscle, you basically have to bulk-gaining both fat and muscle and then try to lose the fat without losing the muscle. Seems like he's skipped a couple steps here.5 lbs of muscle + 5 lb fat + 5 lb water is more likely his true result.
Who said he gained 15 lbs of muscle in 90 days?
You’re posting that but not addressing that he had CIR testing and ignoring what the independent expert said?
Could it be his genetics....He does have insane family genes after all?
Don't flame me.
@kflo is it true USADA can carbon isotope test athletes anytime, without the athlete failing the T/E ratio or failing a test? Jeff on the JRE when talking to Joe on the first episode said they will be implementing random CIR testing and not even testing for the T/E ratio sometimes. Is this real? And are they actually doing it? Or are they sticking to the old methods of if the athlete fails the test or goes above the t/e ratio then they CIR test? I’ve been trying to figure out if USADA has different testing methods than other testing companies.
If they could get away with it; it would be much more effective for drug testing. I wonder if this method is actually legal and wonder if Jeff was talking just out of his ass.
Derek from more plates and more plates seems to think they test like most other wada agencies by importing the t/e ratio method.
