hey SKC_Raynor

thanks a bunch for putting that all together for me.  after reading it all i only have a few questions.

since i have very similar build/goals as this person, do you think it would be alright for me to follow the same plan?

http://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=21269614&f=60&o=100

also, when you say 100~200 reps for abs, do you mean per exercise or total of 100~200 reps for all abs-exercises?


Hey there.

Yes, that plan would work fine for you =)

secondly, 100-200 reps of TOTAL abs, not per exercise ;-)

Hey Raynor I was wondering how do you cook your chicken?  do you fry it in a pan with some olive oil?  I've heard some bad things about eating fried chicken.

edit: also a few questions about drug use and it's effects on weight loss/muscle building-maintaining.

Does marijuana have direct negative effects on a cutting routine?

And just how detrimental is drinking liquor on a cutting routine?



Hey there. Fried chicken is only bad if it's breaded and then deep fried in trans-fat oil.

Fried chicken w/o breading in a pan w/ olive oil is delicious and healthy.

I also like to: Sautee, bake, broil, stir fry, roast, and grill my chicken.

I ALWAYS use olive oil w/ my chicken...but I try a variety of spices and veggies to make different flavors


next, drugs are a no go for bodybuilding and overall health. However, cannabis (marijuana) does not have negative effects for a cutting routine so long as you maintain the proper diet and exercise plan.

Lastly, liquor on cutting is only acceptable if there is NO ADDED SUGAR to the liquor, and the liquor is NOT beer. In other words, hard liquor + diet mixer is fine...but regular soda mixer or sugar or anything of the sort is a no go. Also you must make sure your calories are in check. Google search the calories in your choice alcoholic beverage to get an idea.

Not that I smoke marijuana, but I've heard various people say it has no long term negative effect on a person's health. Is this true?

is there any way to increase the rate of muscle growth by doing more exercises per day? like running the plan listed on a 3-day cycle (3~4 muscle groups per day)? im scared that exercising a muscle group just once per week (6 days of rest) won't show very much progress. i'm not in a huge rush - but it was just an idea.

You gave me the Hypertrophy plan some weeks ago, and I see you give it to many others, but you said you wrote wrong on it, that 75% of max would be 85% of max instead you said, too be 3-5 reps.

So, have you given all others wrong, or just me ? ^^

Thanks, must say you help alot!!

That's still to be determined.

because of the illegal nature of cannabis, there hasn't been a long term scientific study with proper control groups and so forth.

I would be willing to go out on a limb and say that ANY smoke you inhale into your lungs will cause irritation and ultimately lead to shrunken alveoli, potential respiratory problems, etc.

However, as of right there, 100% natural tobacco (no pesticides/chemicals/etc) as well as 100% natural cannabis (no pesticides/chemicals/etc) if smoked using a butane lighter or set of matches would most likely be MUCH less harmful than commercially produced tobacco products and/or using a standard gas lighter to smoke them.

Either way, I would advise against using any kind of illegal drugs, and would also recommend avoiding inhaling any type of smoke.

doing ONE major muscle group per week until total muscular failure is how you will see the most strength gains. The reason for this is the following:

1. After such destruction, your muscles need time to heal. If you hit them again too soon you risk going backwards rather than forwards with progress.

2. You end up hitting the same muscle groups again throughout the week with other exercises. Example, triceps always get hit on chest and shoulder days, also biceps always get hit on back days, etc.

3. Every BODY is different. Some people respond better to training 1 major muscle group per day, per week - others respond better to splits.

Try out the method we discussed and see how it works for you in approx 3 months. If you don't like your progress, we can change it up for you.

yes, 85% of max will = 3-5 reps, I erroneously put 75%.
