Someone asked me in email the other day about "Big C" who I mentioned in the post Cycle for pennies. This is many years back, one of the first few local guys I had trained. He had been lifting for 7 years but was stuck at 189lbs (5'10") and asked me to help him get to 200 (LOL).....You guys know me, I look at 200 with disrespect because 250-300lbs is where its at!!! This picture is of Big C after we put 34lbs of him and he is at 223lbs (holding a copy of my old mag).
After these pics we put another 40lbs on him and took him all the way up to 263lbs at this same exact leaness and it was a freakshow, a serious freakshow. I wish to god I had pics of him at 263lbs but I cant find them--it was a carbon copy of Chris Cormier.
74lbs gained and Im talking a lean 74lbs in 2.5 years, so much for that 10lbs a year bullshit, I refuse those limits. But you hand me those kind of genetics to work with and my job becomes easy and fun as hell.
