greg valentino
hey bros, read this article off a t nation interview of greg valentino, this is an excerpt from the link, what do u guys think of this?
T: Give us an idea of what you did exactly to get your arms that way.
GV: I did a lot of Testosterone. I did about 3000 mg of Test per week. I love Testosterone and I love Equipoise. The Test I did was mostly propionate. Once in a while I would do enanthate and I would always keep it with Equipoise. I'd probably do, oh God… I would do a shot every other day. I wouldn't worry about the amount of oil; I would worry about the amount of drug. Over the course of a week, I take 3,000 mg of Test and probably put in 400 to 500 mg of Equipoise. Remember, that's 15 mg shots. So that would be about 10 CC's of EQ over a week's period. I would do shoulders, triceps, and biceps
T: You know, I'm thinking about titling this piece "The Most Hated Man in Bodybuilding." No offense, but that's the impression I get from listening to people talk about you.
GV: That's fine. You gotta know the kind of person I am. I'm a very easy going person. I understand that I'm the most hated person in bodybuilding, without a doubt! It's not that that's what I want, but it's okay by me because that's the truth. But people don't give me credit. Most guys could never hang with me. I can do the most incredible amount of sets. I used to curl a ridiculous amount of weight. I can't any more; I'm in my forties.
But nobody gives me credit. They assume it's all Synthol or drugs, but they don't understand. I had 18-inch arms in the 140's. Right before I started taking steroids I was like 185 with 21-inch arms. ***It's nothing for me to do 60 sets for a body part. I love volume training. I used to have to drink soda and eat rolls while I was training just to keep the carbs up because I would train for hours. I don't do that anymore, but I still do mega sets.****
what do u guys feel about the last part.. is it even possible?

It does sound like he's all mouth and lucky to be alive because of bad drug deals that went down. I watched some of the videos with Greg on youtube . He was filmed trying to drain all that shit from his arms and blood going every where . He had to go to the hospital when infection set in . I can't understand why anyone would want that synthol shit in their body and pros will stoop to any limit get huge and freaky with no regard to their health .
DOUBLE G 67anyone but me notice jay cutler"s arms in the last olympia??...very strange looking and imo botched synthol...
FrankieAs much as this guy is a as s ho le he was once in good shape and i belive he compeated at an ok level with a good standard of body
He competed a few times and LOST...he's latched onto the stroid wagon and has no business telling other people that it was 3000 mg. of test that gave him the arms.
I can spot synthol use from a mile away...he wasn't even good at that.
90% of Valentino's arm size came from synthol, and for him to act like it came from massive doses of test is a slap in the face of any true hardcore BB. He was never shit as a BB, and is nothing more than a cult figure who has written for a magazine that was more interested in bullshit supplement sales than truth and useful info. His role in Bigger Faster Stronger was a catalyst for his stardom, and gained him respect among BB wannabes for telling the truth about steroids, star athletes and politicians--which he did with a typical Italian swagger.
He's the "Snookie" of bodybuilding---famous for no other reason than being famous. His value is drying up and he'll be gone at some point.
dudes full of shit
Yea valentino is synthol all day, there's no vascularity or definition in his arms. Idk who this dude thinks he's fooling. Coleman, steiner, schwarzenegger, lee priest those dude I give props not some fool that has more oil in him then an automobile smdh. Laughing stock of the neighborhood
And as for 60 sets wtf is that. I don't know what this dude was lifting but I'm exhausted at 8 sets of 8. He can lie to himself all he want but we all know the truth. And 3000mg a week of test I think his nuts would crawl up in his stomach and kick him in the ass
"8 sets of 8"
thats some funny shit! His sets seem reasonable his test is not unheard of but his picture is undeniable!
Yea 8 sets of 8. I mean I do other exercises for the same muscle group like if I do bench I do 8 sets then ill do flies afterwards. My philosophy is intensity is just important as weight and reps, most people do a set go screw off and rest while I do a set (til failure) rest about a minute and do another set. To each there own I guess but it works for me, and I get sore every time so laugh all you want
So when you do chest all you do is flat bench and flies? no incline, decline, cable crossovers, pullovers, dumbbells, all that counts for sets on one muscle...Anyways wasnt trying to clown you brother I thought you where kidding around, how you do yours is your thing my bad for playing.
Nah I'm not upset or anything bro, I do incline and dumbbells and cables (depends on which gym I'm at to do cables or not) I even end with push ups most the time but I don't do all the exercises in one day. Like I hit chest twice a week ill do two or three exercises on day then on my next chest day ill do the others. But like valentinos saying is he does 60 sets of curls, I probably do 20 max. All I was trying to get at is if he's doing 60 sets he's not hitting it hard enough. So I guess I probably do 36 sets max. No hard feeling bro I suck at typing what I'm thinking and it does sound kinda funny to me know too
OE2000Is this the guy whose biceps/triceps exploded? WOW... they sell this shit on amazon???? WTF?
everything that that man says is total horse shit, he is an attention seeking lieing little ass wipe who should never have been aloud near a gym or any kind of gear. u can guarantee he didn't have 18 inch arms at 140 or 21 inch arms at 185 LOL. So no, I for one don't believe anything he has said there at all. earth would be a better place without people like him on it....
Jtizzlehe is the classic example of synthol

there is nothing honest about him, and becoming that shape without synthol would be totally impossible, because hes all out of proportion and the muscles don't have a natural shape that they do with someone who uses steroids only.
Jtizzlewell if you believe it , anything is possible, but to quote my EU buddies ...
"NOT BLOODY LIKELY!"

AnonI d have to say even if it were possible to take that much test with out completely messing up your endocrine system....most if not all would have been wasted, as in not useable..

Jtizzleignore any idea you may or may not have about using that guy as any model for what to do... in my opinion at least.
