I'd be cool with it except I still cannot do it. Never could.
 
Yeah I saw that in the interview with Arnold in the last MD.
But what's the matter with a little bulge as long as it has an 8-pack?
 
A lot of it has to do with carbing up. Not just GH gut. Were not drinking water past Friday night and probably earlier for the pros since they have prejudge friday and not sat morning. So it's hard for the food to digest. But I'm cool with the vacuum pose for sure!

Most is from GH dude. You know it. We all know it. Most of those guys couldn't hit a vacuum regardless of whether its prejudging day or off season.lol Hard to hold the gut in when ones intestines are 3x normal size from running crazy amounts of it.

LOL you like that Kovacs look eh bro? :p

Some things to help with the vacuum is to not force-feed. Stop eating when satisfied, no stuffing yourself like a pig. Regarding training, pullovers, namely cross-bench db pullovers while breathing deep helps bigtime. Lastly, actually practicing sucking in the gut as deep as possible and holding it helps. I weigh 235 and still have a decent vacuum effect when hitting a double bi shot. :D

Pulled this off another board because I couldnt find the MD article on it but I was reading some of the comments and people seem to believe the gut goes away after stopping use of gh and that the gut is also caused by use of insulin and not gh at all.

That's just fucked up. And it's common which is sad for this sport. GH abuse does cause that brutha - the intestines have a shitload of receptors, not only the skeletal muscles. Slin may magnify GH's effect on the gut I dunno, but GH is the culprit. As for the gut going away I dunno - seen any recent pics of Ronnie? The gut looks terrible, and odds are he's not running crazy doses like when he was competing.
 
I know its the gh and I was also pretty sure the gut never goes away. It's caused by an excess of gh in your system. I heard your tongue swells as well but that goes down.
 
Ive never ran any GH ,although I have always wanted to but to see that pic of the extended abdominal area in the pic above , That could possibly steer me to stay away from that stuff.
imo im doing just fine without it .
 
i couldn't do it...with all the food i have to eat on my small frame to maintain the large amount of mass i have on it, my gut always sticks out...
 
I'm going to start another thread along these lines and hope for some input.
It's all DPH's fault!!!! I was fine being full looking until all this.
 
That pic is a photoshop no doubt, gh gut is out there but I have never seen it that bad

Love the pose and my first thought was fank zane before even opning the link... he invented that pose

Even if it isn't, that dude has to be 80 years old, not that I have a lot of room to talk about age.

It's Marcus Haley. Not so sure about it being PS'ed. Looks like he perhaps might be exhaling before hitting it. Colemans' has looked that bad before from the side when not sucking it in. Here's a couple more pics of Haley - not so dramatic, but it shows...
