EDITOR’S LETTER

A

nnouncing that either one of these two names have joined us at MuscleSport Magazine would have been cool enough, but adding both in one issue has us chomping at the bit to see the public reaction to Rich Piana and Denise Masino coming on board. Our line-up was already stacked but now having these two goliaths in the fold will be the catalyst of our vision all along – to put us into the next level. Collectively, our All-Star cast of writers is by far the best in the industry and we say that with no bullshit or hesitation. The industry has changed Joe Pietaro has been a writer and having IFBB pros collecting paychecks while others ghostwrite their and editor in the sports and columns has become a thing of the past. The vast majority of them have ERG\EXLOGLQJ ÀWQHVV LQGXVWULHV since 2005 and has worked for no desire to even post on social media, so the ROI on those exclusive and been published in Muscular contracts is obviously not even on the chart. Development, FLEX, Muscle & Fitness, FitnessRX For Men, New We were the first bodybuilding media outlet to not only acknowledge York Sportscene and more. the non-competitors, but also embrace them and put them at the forefront of our platforms. They have no reason to be PC and kiss ass, so their message is one that is much more truthful than that of an amateur or pro who has to toe the company line. Just take a look at the YouTube numbers that Piana has amassed – 68 million views and 400,000 subscribers as of this writing. That is fuckin’ sick and blows away the three-time reigning Mr. Olympia Phil Heath’s channel (599,000 views, 23,000 subscribers). Numbers don’t lie…and neither do we.

MERCEDES QUICKLY TURNED AROUND AND SAID TO ME, “YO, WHAT IS THAT SHIT ALL ABOUT???” TO WHICH I REPLIED, “UMMMM… I WAS THINKING ABOUT RICH PIANA AS I WAS POUNDING AWAY AT YOUR ASS AND HE HAS A SUPPLEMENT CALLED ‘KILL IT’ AND THAT’S RICH’S SAYING SO I FIGURED AS I WAS CUMMING I WOULD YELL OUT ‘KILL IT’ BECAUSE OF HIS YOUTUBE VIDEOS!!”

HEY, AS YOU MAY KNOW ALREADY, AFTER ALMOST 14 YEARS, I LEFT MD THIS PAST DECEMBER. YES IT’S TRUE. MYSELF AND A BUNCH OF OTHER WRITERS & MD PROS WERE RELEASED (FIRED FROM OUR MD CONTRACTS) AND ONE OF MD’s CONTRIBUTING EDITORS JOE PIETARO WAS FIRED A MONTH EARLIER, TOO.

OK ENOUGH SHAMELESS PLUGS,,, HERE IS A ‘QUICK FACT’ FOR YOU ALL!!!! FACT: Every morning Rich Piana goes out in his yard and he picks ‘oranges’ from an ‘apple tree.’ He then puts them in a juicer and makes the best ‘lemonade’ you’ve ever tasted!!! DID YOU JUST DARE ASK “HOW CAN THIS BE??? WHAT ARE YOU A MOMO??? ARE YOU REALLY THAT FRIGGIN’ STUPID??? IT’S BECAUSE HE’S RICHFUCKIN-PIANA AND BECAUSE HE IS THE LEADER OF THE 5%ers!!!!!!!!!...SORRY, I HAD TO DO THAT. I JUST COULDN’T RESIST. YOU MAY NOW READ ON.

IT’S COMING FROM YOUR GUT. YO, I FUCKING HATE SPOTTING GUYS ON THE BENCH AND GAGGING AS THEY BLOW THEIR BAD BREATH UP INTO MY FACE AS I STAND OVER THEM. DIDN’T YA EVER NOTICE THAT WHEN YOU SPOT A GUY ON THE BENCH, IT SMELLS LIKE HE JUST ATE A “SHIT SANDWICH???” GODDAMN, I FUCKIN’ HATE THAT!!!!

12 WWW.MUSCLESPORTMAG.COM SummerMagazineLayout_OUTLINES.indd 12

8/4/15 12:36 AM

OR DID YOU SLEEP IN THAT SHIRT LAST NIGHT!!!!” I MEAN REALLY. COME FUCKING ON! DON’T YOU SMELL YOUR OWN PITS WHEN THEY ARE HUMMING LIKE THAT??? I HATE WHEN THE AIR IN THE GYM GETS MOIST WITH BREATH AND PITS. IT SMELLS LIKE YOU JUST WALKED INTO A “GLORY HOLE” IN ONE OF THE MANY “NEW YORK CITY PEEP SHOW PALACES.” UUUMM WAIT. I’VE ONLY BEEN THERE A FEW TIMES…OK, OK, OK . MAYBE A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN A FEW TIMES. HEY FORGET ABOUT THE DAMN GLORY HOLE- PEEPSHOW STATEMENT. LET IT GO…GEEEZ-US. I SHOULD HAVE NEVER SAID ANYTHING!!!! ANYWAY GETTING BACK TO MY RANT > I NEVER STINK UP THE GYM. THAT’S RUDE AND I WONT EVEN GET INTO THE PROTEIN FARTS IN THE GYM. OH, YEAH BABE. THERES A FAMOUS PRO BODYBUILDER (AN MD COVER BOY) WHO HAD SUCH BAD GAS THAT THE GYM OWNER WANTED TO ASK HIM TO LEAVE THE GYM ONE DAY. THAT SHIT IS WRETCHED…. “Bro, you’re breath is so stinky I don’t know whether I should give you a breath mint or toilet paper!!!!” MORE VENTING: “Yo, Someone needs to ZLUK PU H /HaTH[ [LHT [V M\TPNH[L [OH[ [V_PJ brillo pad Mercedes’s mother calls a vagina!!!” SORRY IF I’M MOODY!!!! I HAD A WICKED FIGHT WITH MERCEDES BECAUSE SHE SAID “I GAVE HER CRABS!!” I TOLD HER THAT’S IMPOSSIBLE BECAUSE NOT ONLY HAVE I NOT CHEATED ON HER, BUT I DO NOT HAVE CRABS MYSELF!!! SO GIVEN THE FACT THAT SHE WAS INFESTED, I THEN ‘ACCUSED HER’ OF CHEATING ON ME…AGAIN!!!! SHE GOT PISSED BECAUSE SHE SWORE TO ME THAT SHE HASN’T CHEATED ON ME SINCE SHE WAS BANGING ‘THE HOOD RAT’ FROM DOWN THE BLOCK BACK WHEN SHE LIVED IN THE BRONX - AND THAT WAS YEARS AGO!!!. SO WE WERE BOTH ‘STUMPED’ AND WE BOTH WANTED TO KNOW, WHERE DID THE CRABS COME FROM??? KEEP IN MIND, MERCEDES MOWS HER LATINA LAWN ( SHE SHAVES HER HAIRY LATINA BUSH). IN THIS CASE, HER CRAB GRASS!!!!. THEN MERCEDES’S MOTHER (ANDRE THE GIANT) COMES HOME AND THROWS A CVS PHARMACY BAG ON THE KITCHEN TABLE AND SHE RUNS INTO THE BATHROOM. MERCEDES GRABBED THE BAG,OFF THE TABLE, LOOKED INSIDE AND THERE WAS THREE BOTTLES OF “RID”BEDDING SPRAY. WE BOTH GAGGED!!!! SO, WE FOUND OUT THAT MERECEDES’S MOTHER IS THE ONE WHO HAD CRABS AND SHE WAS NOW IN THE BATHROOM SPRAYING THE TOILET SEAT. I recently sent Mercedes’s mothers picture to Ripley’s Believe It or Not and they sent it back and said, “We don’t believe it.” BACK IN THE DAY: YO - when I got arrested for steroids, they also charged me with being the DUMBEST MAN in America!!! Fuck that, I should have just called STEVE BLECHMAN and said, “Get your candy ass down here right away and

prove them WRONG!!!!” “Yo’ Jesus died for our sins, so if you don’t sin that means he died for nothing!!!!” KEEP THAT IN MIND BEFORE ANY OF YOU JUDGE ME!!!! ANYWAY, I’VE TOLD THIS STORY IN THE MAGAZINES BEFORE AND EVEN ON TV, BUT I’M GOING TO TELL IT AGAIN HERE FOR YOU MOMO’S. YOU CAN THANK ME LATER!!!!. I REMEMBER WHEN I WAS LOCKED UP IN JAIL AND THEY WOULD TRANSPORT US CONVICTS TO COURT. THE REAL FUCKED UP PART IS THAT THEY WOULD HAVE SIX OF US INMATES CHAINED WITH ANKLE CUFFS AND A LONG CHAIN THAT WENT ATTACHED US ALL TO EACH OTHER AROUND OUR WAISTS THEN TO THE NEXT INMATE. THEN THEY LOADED US INTO A SMALL VAN THAT WAS NO BIGGER THEN A REGULAR-SIZED WORK VAN. ONLY THIS VAN HAD A WALL DOWN THE MIDDLE SO IT WAS SIX INMATES ON ONE SIDE THEN ANOTHER SIX ON THE OTHER SIDE. THATS 12 JAIL MOMO’S IN THE BACK OF A VAN. YO’, IF THAT WAS YOU WITH 12 OF YOUR FRIENDS IN THE BACK OF YOUR VAN , YOU WOULD PROBABLY GET A VIOLATION FOR UNSAFE PASSENGER TRANSPORT. BUT, HEY, THE GOVERNMENT CAN DO WHATEVER THEY WANT TO DO. THEY PROVE THAT SHIT EVERYDAY!!!! ANYWAY, WHEN WE GOT TO THE COURTHOUSE, WE WERE ALL PILED INTO A BIG CAGE, aka HOLDING CELL, WHERE 12 OTHER PINHEADS WERE TRANSPORTED BY ANOTHER VAN WITH AN ILLEGAL SIZED LOAD OF CONVICTS. AND WHEN IT WAS LUNCH TIME, WE ALL GOT A BOLOGNA SANDWICH. OH, YUM…NOT!!!! AND, YO, THAT NASTY FAKE-ASS BOLOGNA SHIT SANDWICH WAS ON SOME SORT OF DRY ASS WHOLE WHEAT BREAD THAT TASTED LIKE SAW DUST. NOW I’M SURE IF ANY OF YOU JAILHOUSE BROTHERS ARE READING THIS WITH BAD FLASHBACKS, YOU KNOW THE BOLOGNA SANDWICH DEAL. I KNOW MY BROTHERS…I KNOW…FUCK EM ALL!!! ANYWAY, I FUCKIN’ HATE WHOLE WHEAT BREAD - YUKKK!!!!! NOW HERE IS THE FUCKED UP PART OF MY LITTLE RANT HERE - AS ALWAYS, I HAD TO TAKE A SHIT!!! OH, YEAH, BABE. I HAD A MONSTER-SHIT-TSUNAMI (pronounced su-na-mi), MEANING I FELT MY GUT ERRUPTING LIKE MOUNT ST. HELENS AND THINGS COULD GET REAL MESSY REAL FAST IF I DID NOT ACT RIGHT AWAY!!!! IRONICALLY, A FEW OTHER INMATES COMPLAINED THAT “THEY HAD TO SHIT, TOO.” (IT’S THE DAMN SHITTY JAILHOUSE FOOD AND THE FAKE ASS MEAT THEY GIVE YOU.) PROBLEM IS THERE WAS ONLY ONE TOILET AND IT WAS IN MIDDLE OF THE CELL WITH NO WALLS OR ANYTHING ELSE BLOCKING ITS VIEW. OOOPS…AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, THERE WAS ONE OTHER BIG PROBLEM - NO TOILET PAPER TO WIPE YOUR ASS WITH!!! BUT UNLIKE THE OTHER

HERO CONVICTS I WAS LOCKED UP WITH, I COULD NOT HOLD IT OR I WOULD HAVE SHIT MY ORANGE JUMPSUIT!!!! SO I ANNOUNCED TO ALL THE GUYS THAT I WAS SORRY BUT I HAD TO GO, “MOTHER NATURE WAS CALLING ME” AND IF I DIDN’T ANSWER HER CALLING, THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN A BAD SITUATION FOR ME AND FOR ALL OF THE REST OF MY FELLOW INMATES. ESPECIALLY WHEN WE WOULD ALL BE BACK IN THAT LITTLE VAN AGAIN ON OUR WAY BACK TO THE COUNTY JAIL. SO THEY AGREED WITH A BIG “OH, HELL NO, FUCK THAT.” SO NOW MY FELLOW INMATES ALL TURNED THEIR HEADS AS I SAT ON THE STAINLESS STEEL TOILET AND I RELEASED THE HOUNDS!!!! (SHIT MY BRAINS OUT.) THEN, WHEN I WAS DONE, I ASKED ONE OF MY CELLMATES FOR A SANDWICH THAT WAS THROWN ON THE FLOOR BY AN UNHUNGRY FELLOW CONVICT. I PROUDLY TOOK THE BOLOGNA OFF AND ATE IT AND THEN WIPED MY ASS WITH THE WHOLE WHEAT BREAD >>>BOTH SLICES. YES, I ADMIT, AT FIRST THE BREAD WAS A LITTLE SCRATCHY ON MY ASS. BUT AT THE SAME TI\ME THAT HELPED CLEAN ME UP A LITTLE BETTER THAN IF I WOULD HAVE USED WHITE BREAD!!! YES IT’S TRUE! I TOOK A SHIT IN JAIL AND WIPED MY ASS WITH A BOLOGNA SANDWICH!!! THE OTHER INMATES SHOOK THEIR HEADS IN DISBELEIF BUT SHOWED ME PROPS FOR NOT GIVING A FUCK AND DOING WHAT I GOTTA DO. THAT, MY FRIENDS, IS SURVIVAL!!!!!! “You can stab me with a knife, you can beat me with a club, you can even force me to VWLU T` L`LZ ^OLU 0»T OH]PUN ZL_ ^P[O T` girlfriend. But there’s no way on earth you can make me hold in a shit blast when I gotta go. Yo, there’s a freight train coming. Get outta the way or it’s gonna get messy!!!!!!”

Disrespectful

Towards arnold heath, cutler and cicherillo

all talking shit

BY LEE PRIEST, IFBB & NAABA PRO

PHOTO BY ANDRZEJ JAWORSKI, AJ JAWA PHOTO

A

rnold Schwarzenegger is the one figure in the sport of bodybuilding that is known outside of its inner circle and is still heavily involved in it. He brought The Iron Game into the mainstream back in the 1970s and is still doing so much for it, so for anyone to speak negatively about Schwarzenegger is downright disrespectful. When the likes of Jay Cutler, Bob Cicherillo and especially Phil Heath say what they did, it shows what type of character they all have. That trio has taken shots at Arnold since he once again spoke up about the size of the competitor’s waistlines, but this time added direct criticism of the judges and – most importantly – Jim Manion by name. So it seems as if they have gone on the offensive against Schwarzenegger in defense of the IFBB president. They are all being Manion puppets and saying what they know he would want to hear. Even when this was first brought up at the Arnold Classic seminar, Cicherillo could have spoken about it more (being the emcee and seated next to Schwarzenegger), but instead quickly changed the topic. These guys are simply ass kissers and do not have the balls to take a stand and say that what Schwarzenegger said is true. No, they might upset Manion and in doing so, upset their placings and/or chances to earn more money. What have these guys accomplished in this sport compared to Schwarzenegger? Nothing; they are not even the shit on the bottom of his shoes! I had the pleasure of training at World Gym with Schwarzenegger, Lou Ferrigno and all the greats from that era. Sitting in the office with Schwarzenegger and Joe Gold talking about the good old days is something that I fondly recall and will always treasure. This man deserves to be honored, not spoken about in the fashion that he has been by these individuals.

NIGHT OF CHAMPIONS VS. NEW YORK PRO Another bone that I have to pick with Cicherillo concerns what he said regarding the original Night of Champions and how it wasn’t as great as some people make it out to be, adding that the venue was antiquated, as well. Besides that, Cicherillo feels that the current version of the show – the New York Pro – is a better one all around and that even includes the venues (a college in New York City and this past May at a hotel in New Jersey). Once again, he is being a company man. Sure, the Beacon Theater was older, but it was a great place to hold a show and was in the heart of the Big Apple. And it included a line-up of more than 40 big name competitors. Back then, the Mr. Olympia, Arnold Classic and Night of Champions were the top three shows on the IFBB annual calendar. I’m not knocking the guys who compete in the New York Pro now, but it is a sub-par line-up for the most part and not deep at all. And by the looks of the photographs from the most recent show, the venue was total shit. But why even listen to Cicherillo when we know who butters his bread? WWW.PRIESTATHLETICS.COM

FIT Â FOR Â A Â KING

No Place For Props in Bodybuilding BY ZACK “KING� KHAN

Even For Guest Posing

K

ai Greene is known for his out of the ordinary posing routines and he took it to another level as the guest poser at the IFBB Toronto Pro. His 6 0 VW\OH RXWĂ€W GLG FDXVH a bit of a stir, with some SHRSOH JLYLQJ KLP FUHGLW for it and others saying that he went too far.

PHOTOS COURTESY OF ZACK KHAN

If the powers that be want to make bodybuilding more mainstream, then they have to say something about things like this. By not saying anything, that makes it seem acceptable. For me personally, get rid of all the fuckin’ props. The fans didn’t FRPH WR VHH RXU RXWÀWV WKH\ҋUH WKHUH to see our muscles. And just because it was a guest posing spot, why is WKHUH D QHHG WR ZHDU RXWÀWV" )XFN that! I worked hard for these muscles and I’m not going to cover them up to satisfy some people.

#BeYou #BeReal #BeTrue Bodybuilders are trying too hard to impress people. If you can’t do it with your muscles, then take up another sport.

IFBB PROS AND SOCIAL MEDIA It used to be only the stage, magazines or VHS/DVD platforms for pro bodybuilders to get their message across to the fans. But social media has given us a direct way to not only market ourselves, but also personally interact with others. Every fan wants to know what the top pros do – how they train, eat, live, etc. and in order to take advantage of this, they have to offer the fans some personal insight. But the problem with that is that there is no privacy left in the world and you get these pussy boii trolls that sit behind their computers (or phones, which are even more common nowadays) talking shit to bodybuilders as if they were in any position to do so. These guys haven’t even reached fuckin’ puberty yet! I see so many bodybuilders put up with this and that shocks me. If someone comes to my page talking crap, I will expose that piece of shit to everyone. How fuckin’ dare you come to my page and talk like a wanna-be gangsta? I have no room

for these type of ‘followers.’ Just because you see someone with over a million followers doesn’t mean that they are all there for something positive. I’d rather just have the ones who are really there to be inspired and are willing to respect your hustle. And the biggest thing is to just be yourself. Too many bodybuilders are fuckin’ fake and are not good actors. I will call it like I see it and not sugarcoat anything – my name isn’t Willy Wonka. And, of course, I understand that the guys on top have to be more reserved as you have the eyes of all the big fish on you. So you have to tread carefully and be more diplomatic as to not upset anyone.

made me get a better deal from a Middle Eastern packer and allowed me to name it ZKK Research. And they also let me have a lot of input on the products. I can’t believe I was so loyal to those snakes. Another thing, Nutrex – where is your fake lawyer now with his fake letter to me stating to not use my own name on the new company? By the way, please stop e-mailing me asking where your order is! I am an athlete and the company owner. Would you e-mail Phil Heath about the status of your order from his company? It’s not like we sit in the warehouse doing this shit!

THANK YOU TO THE FANS The reaction to my new ZKK Underground Research supplement line has been crazy and I am honored to have sold out of most of the products within the first month that they were made available. So I can only say thank you to my fans and am glad that everyone has said that they like the flavors. Also a big thank you to Nutrex for being disloyal cunts. LOL. You guys

THE GREGG & JOE SHOW We’re not just a bunch of pretty faces here at MSM and tap into the plethora of information from our All Star staff when it comes to training information. No pussy shit here, mind you, just hardcore bodybuilding information to help you get jacked! Check out our Training and Videos sections.

#msm4life

This crew that we are putting together is reminiscent of the nWo from WCW back in the 1990s. That started with two guys who were cut loose by the then-WWF and they formed The Outsiders, invading the rival organization and forming a rogue faction that ended up being called the New World Order. It seemed as if they added another big name every week and that is exactly what mSm is doing.

SUBSCRIPTIONS AVAILABLE As soon as our Winter 2015 issue with Lee Priest on the cover was released, we began receiving requests about subscriptions from literally all over the globe. That didn’t slow down with the next issue and =DFN “Kingâ€? Khan 6R ZH ZHUH DVNHG DQG DQVZHUHG LQ WKH DIĂ€UPDWLYH $ IXOO year subscription is only $25 plus free U.S. shipping. (International shipping rates depend on location.) Just go to www. PXVFOHVSRUWPDJ FRP VXEVFULEH

We have amassed quite the diverse guest list of late that has included people from the sports world (Steve Weatherford, Lou Piniella), television stars (Les Stroud, Seth Gold) and bodybuilding industry (Jimmy ´7KH ,URQ %XOO¾ 3HOOHFKLD -RVH 5D\PRQG . As a matter of fact, the 2015 Arnold Classic champion in the 212 division seemed to help himself land a long sought-after Muscular Development cover after appearing on our show and voicing his displeasure with his departure from the company.

Both my parents were not only bodybuilders, but also top-level competitors, as well as owning one of the best bodybuilding gyms in the San Fernando Valley (Gold’s Gym in Northridge).

Unfortunately, this all went downhill once my parents divorced. At the current time I was young and didn’t know what was going on but it had a huge impact on me.

It started all over again for me and I found my true passion and I haven’t stopped since‌excluding when I had a fair share of injuries and setbacks. Living the bodybuilding lifestyle truly makes me happy. If it weren’t for the gym, nutrition and cool drug experiments, I honestly don’t know what I’d be doing with my life. My message here is everyone was put on earth with a talent and a passion. Sit down and think about what drives you to be a happier individual and go out and conquer that. Happiness and comfortability are what everyone should strive for.

And more importantly, it is key for females. The feeling on steroids is amazing. You don’t get as sore, your recovery is better, you’re stronger, you feel full and hard all the time, your body fat is lower and you see results faster. Yes, I know. Who would ever want to come off, right? I know of too many females who don’t come off of their cycle because they’re too insecure and are too afraid of getting softer and putting on more body fat. But what they need to realize is that if they want any longevity in the sport of bodybuilding, they NEED to cycle off. What I mean by that is one’s health. Taking drugs for too long can severely mess with a women’s reproductive systems, hormonal imbalances, give her

irreversible side affects like hair loss, hair growth in areas where it wasn’t before, acne, voice deepening, changes in the structure of her face and clit growth. Those side affects alone should be enough to convince any female to take time off. So do your body a favor, give your liver, heart and kidneys some rest and take some time off. We often forget that our organs are responsible for everything that we put in our bodies. We bodybuilders watch what we eat and what we put into our bodies. Ironically, we forget that steroids fall into that category of things that we put into our bodies. When women take steroids, they

will most likely miss their period. The absence of a woman’s period can last anywhere from a few months to over a year. That all depends on how much she is taking, what drugs she is taking and whether or not she has had enough time off in between cycles.

So do your body a favor, give your liver, heart and kidneys some rest and take some time off.

Things to keep in mind

ZKHQ FRPLQJ RII RI JHDU 1 - It is a necessary and healthy choice. 2 - A lot of your physique is what you eat, so as long as you stay

on a regimented diet plan, then you will not have any rebound after coming off. 3 - You will respond better once you take steroids again after a good three-plus months off. 4 - Keep training. Don’t let being off gear demotivate you. It is only temporary. 5 - Add cardio in to keep your metabolism going. 6 - Add in some natural supplements. It doesn’t hurt to take a liver support, a multivitamin and other great natural products like turmeric, omega-3s, GLA, digestive enzymes, etc. These VXSSOHPHQWV FRPH ZLWK D KXJH YDULHW\ RI EHQHÀWV DQG FDQ make you have more energy and recover faster while being off cycle. 7 - Make sure you are getting enough sleep and drinking enough water.

Your body will thank you for the time off and for being healthy in between cycles. You shouldn’t have to rely on drugs to have passion or motivation to better your physique and to better yourself. Passion, discipline, dedication, drive and heart cannot be bought nor substituted. Any other questions you may have or if you’re looking for my assistance in training and helping you reach your goals the smart way, contact me!

“I didn’t want to face my dad,” Rich Piana, 44, recalled from that night when he was 18 years of age and competing in a show that he was expected to win, but ended up out of WKH WRS ÀYH ´, ZDV GHYDVWDWHG , IHOW awful. And when I reached his seat, he asked me when I was going to perform my posing routine. I didn’t know how to tell him but I had to – I didn’t make the cut and wouldn’t be doing my routine.” Piana went home and stayed up all night contemplating what went wrong and what he needed to do to never feel that way again. “I had to make a choice and do whatever it took,” he explained. “I had to redeem myself.”

That meant doing something that was risky on a few different fronts. “I drove to Tijuana, Mexico and bought steroids,” admits Piana, who had no idea what to ask or look for. He walked into a storefront, asked for steroids and the proprietor began showing him different bottles. “He’s Spanish, doesn’t speak English and never worked out a day in his life and I’m going to take his advice on what kind of drug to put in my body… and that’s what I did.” Getting across the border was another hurdle for the teenager now that he had his cache of gear. His car went through a rudimentary search, but lucky for him, the steroids were not discovered. Piana made it home safely but still was in a quandary. “I’m sitting there looking at a syringe and bottles,” he described. “I didn’t know how to draw it, how much to put in or how or where to shoot it. They didn’t have the Internet back in those GD\V RU ERRNV DERXW LW 6R , ÀOOHG XS WKH needle and put it in my shoulder – the last shot that I received from the doctor went there.” Putting on approximately 28 pounds of muscle in three months, Piana went on to win his next show and fared well after that competing. But he later came to the realization that he was on a road

to devastation if he continued on the same path. “I had to get out of bodybuilding and the reason being is that I would have fuckin’ killed myself,” he says matterof-factly. “When I was competing, I put everything else on hold. I didn’t give a shit about my job, my girlfriend, my family…whatever was going on in my life. I only cared about that trophy. “I still am taking steroids, but it’s maybe 10 percent of what it was when I was competing,” he continues. “I’m a lot smarter now and have learned a lot. More isn’t necessarily better, but back in the day – more weight, more food,

more sleep and more drugs. There were a lot of things that I was doing that I didn’t need to do. It was overkill.”

Some people have an epiphany that causes them to take a different route in life. But when it came to Piana, it wasn’t anything that he can pinpoint that made him stop competing and concentrate on a business plan.

“I guess that I had (an epiphany) for 15 years,â€? he says with a laugh. “You know it’s not the best path but keep doing it. If you win, you want to win again. If you lose, you want to redeem yourself. Going after that trophy is like an addiction and once I stopped chasing (them), my entire life changed.â€? Any bodybuilder will tell you that they put more than anything into competing. So Piana did what seems like the obvious choice and merely made a lateral change, keeping the same focus but using it in more important areas of life. “If you use that same effort into other aspects like running a business and becoming a success, you can get a lot more done,â€? he remarks. “It’s just stupid‌doing all of that (competing) for nothing. Guys will do it for 20 years and have a whole list of accomplishments WKDW GRQŇ‹W PHDQ VKLW , GLG P\ Ă€UVW competition when I was 15 years old; I care more about longevity now.â€? Starting off with his 1 Day U May apparel line, Piana exploded onto the scene as an entrepreneur and eventually launched his 5 Percent Nutrition company. But it’s more than just a supplement line; it’s an entire

movement and way of life. This has basically made Piana a rock star and judging by his look, the heavy metal music blaring and the lines snaking around for what seems like forever at his booth at the various expos, that is exactly what he is.

When asked why he has been able to procure such a rabid following, Piana had a simple answer. “My honesty,â€? he said without hesitation. “I’m capable of being honest

What has taken place in a short period of time is nothing short of amazing. Throngs of fans have made it blatantly clear that bodybuilding is more than the IFBB pros. As a matter of fact, Piana has heard from many of them that they are not even aware of who is competing that night when he meets them at an expo. “This has exceeded my expectations,� says Piana as he nods in agreement to that same question posed to him. “And what makes this really cool is that it’s not just me, the other 5 percent athletes or the fans, but we’re all like a family. That’s the main message – everyone is equal. People all doing the same thing and helping each other out. “Slowly taking over the bodybuilding world.�

Eating On The Road BY JERRY WARD

I

n the last few years I have been fortunate enough to be traveling to all the big expos like the Olympia, Arnold and PDQ\ RWKHU VHPL ORFDO VKRZV WKDW result in a few days trip to attend. Along with a yearly traditional trip WR 0H[LFR LQ WKH FROGHU PRQWKV WR break up the winter, I have had to learn to eat on the go and on the road. It’s been a hard transition at Ă€UVW EXW RYHU WLPH , OHDUQHG WKHVH OLWWOH ´ERG\EXLOGLQJ WUDYHO KDFNV Âľ

The last time I went to Mexico, I decided I was not only going to maintain my really lean condition, but I was also going to get LEANER and look BETTER when I got home after a week away. Well, training is a must. Get my regular workouts in and cardio daily, but the DIET was the main thing I had to get in check. One thing I learned over time was that supplements save my ass a lot. Protein powders, meal replacements and protein bars, but which ones? Whatever meets your needs, I say. I bring a shaker bottle in my backpack to travel and keep one-to-two servings of powder in a Ziploc bag in there and ready. Also I keep two bars in there, as well. The rest gets packed in my carry-on or checked suitcase. And for a week, that includes the following: PHOTOS COURTESY OF JERRY WARD

*Two bars per day =14 bars and I bring two extra *Two servings of protein powder a day (two scoops each), 28 servings of powder This comprises four meals per day for me and I eat two-to-three food meals at a restaurant, at the buffet or wherever. And when I get there, I look for the cleanest things I can get. Fish, chicken, turkey, eggs and egg whites, veggies, white rice, potatoes, etc. Anything can be ordered to suit your needs at any restaurant; just ask. The fact that the supplements are so “clean,� it makes it okay if the restaurant

food is a little less than perfect; it all evens out at the end of the day. Most places have “healthyâ€?choices, but all places can make special orders if you ask nicely. Other things I also include while traveling are beef jerky, ostrim snacks, Quest chips, plain almonds, and walnuts and always have a bottle of water on you, too. Many times thirst is mistaken for hunger and it’s easy to dehydrate on a trip. When on a day trip like an expo all day or an excursion on vacation, take a protein bar (I use Quest bars) and put two of them in my cargo pockets of my shorts. I always have my meal ready like this in case there is nothing I can eat when I want to eat. A bottle of water and that bar will hold me RYHU MXVW Ă€QH IRU D OLWWOH ZKLOH A good thing about using so many supplements is that is usually results LQ D FDORULH GHĂ€FLW ZKLFK PHDQV LI you opt to eat two instead of three meals of actual food that day, both meals can be a little more “vacation friendlyâ€? and not have to be a strict macro nutrient-wise. It’s a throwback to the old EAS Myoplex diets where you have three supplement shakes, a bar and then a meal of whatever you want - within reason, which works well on vacations. If it’s a road trip, you can literally stop at any fast food place along the way and get the RIGHT thing to eat

there. Chicken salad, light dressing or even get the grilled chicken sandwich and not have the mayo on it. Doing the right thing is what it is all about here. We all know what we SHOULD eat at the junk food places, but usually justify eating shit or just saying ‘fuck it; I don’t care’ and then getting a little fatter and being pissed about it. I’ve been there many times. Well, there you have it. How I eat

Anabolic Expert QUESTION:

ANSWER:

Big Dave, I have read that Dianabol and Equipoise are chemically identical. The only difference is that Dianabol is simply orally activated. So why is it that I see injectable Dianabol? Wouldn’t that just be Equipoise? And now I have heard of an oral version of Equipoise called Boldabol; wouldn’t that just be Dianabol?

With regard to GH injections, for women, I recommend taking a single ,8 GRVH ÀUVW WKLQJ LQ WKH PRUQLQJ 7KH edema or water retention that occurs with daily GH shots can usually be controlled with a low carbohydrate diet; however, some individuals do notice tremendous tissue swelling while on GH. When it’s muscular swelling, it creates a full, skin stretching, look. When it’s fat or the internal organs that swell, it creates an awkward, unaesthetic, appearance that, especially in a woman, doesn’t bode well with the judges. As for Cytomel (T3), I suggest using it for contest preparation only. Usual dosages start out at around 25mcg/day and work up to around 75mcg/day. Thyroid hormone, like any other endocrine hormone, works on a negative feedback loop. When an exogenous source of T3 (Cytomel) is taken, the body slows downs the production of the pituitary hormone TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone). This decrease in TSH slows production of thyroxin (T4) from the thyroid gland. However, once the Cytomel is discontinued, the pituitary gland will once again start producing TSH, which will then stimulate normal levels

ANSWER: Equipoise and Dianabol are two completely distinct compounds. Equipoise is chemically known as boldenone undecyclenate and Dianabol is methandrostenelone. Equipoise is a highly anabolic, slightly androgenic, compound that, in men, is excellent for putting on lean muscle without excessive aromatization and water retention. Dianabol, on the other hand, is a highly anabolic, highly androgenic compound that builds muscle while causing water retention, aggression and acne.

QUESTION: Quick question - for a woman, do you recommend taking GH only in the morning, or should I split it up into two doses to minimize water retention? What’s the best way to minimize water retention IRU D IHPDOH" , ÀQG WKDW GHSHQGLQJ RQ P\ monthly cycle, GH can make me retain more water than usual. Also, is it true that you can take up to 12.5 mcg of Cytomel (T3) without shutting down your own production of T3?

of thyroid hormone. Bodybuilders that complain about getting fat and depressed following a contest are, coincidentally, the same individuals that stop working out, start eating like pigs and then sit around feeling sorry for themselves. I hardly see how this scenario is related to pre-contest Cytomel use.

QUESTION: Dave, I love to hear you talk about all the ridiculous bodybuilding tactics that you’ve witnessed over the years. Can you think of any wacky bodybuilding practices that you feel are absolutely absurd?

ANSWER: One of the more classic examples of Urban Bodybuilding Legends or, as NPC District Bodybuilding Chairman Steve Weinberger likes to call it, “voodoo bodybuilding,â€? occurred while backstage at a local New York bodybuilding contest back in the 1990s. I was waiting in the pump-up room for my weight class to be called when all of a sudden I smelled this terribly offensive odor. Everyone in the room must have noticed it because the smell was so horrible that people were actually getting nauseous and light-headed. In fact, the scent was so pungent that it made the usual backstage smorgasbord of Pro-Tan, Hot Stuff spray and posing oil smell like some exotic cologne factory. As I swayed back and forth, fading in and out of consciousness, I turned and smelled the culprit. Once pinpointed DQG LGHQWLĂ€HG , FDXWLRXVO\ DVNHG KLP LI I could give him a few words of advice. Confused, the competitor asked me if there was anything wrong with the way he looked. I assured him that his conditioning LQ P\ HVWLPDWLRQ ZDV JUHDW IRU KLV Ă€UVW bodybuilding competition. The problem, I insisted, was, “you smell horrible.â€? +H FRQĂ€GHG LQ PH WKDW KH KDGQŇ‹W showered for over a week because “someone at the gymâ€? (99% of all idiotic

advice seems to come from this hotbed of wisdom) told him that exposing the skin to water in the week prior to a contest could result in water retention. Not wanting to appear “smooth� onstage, he tried as hard as possible to stay clear of water (he hadn’t even had anything to drink in the previous two days). Unfortunately for us bodybuilders, he did a very good job of sticking to his water-free strategy.

QUESTION: I am a 26-year-old 5’8â€? female at about 150 pounds. I am trying to tone up and lean out but am stuck at this current weight. I am strength training for an hour four days a week and trying to do cardio IRU DW OHDVW PLQXWHV Ă€YH GD\V D ZHHN , KDYH WULHG WKH FUD]LHVW WKLQJV 0\ Ă€DQFp is so frustrated because I am the only person that he can’t help. I was eating six times a day (1200 calories); 40-60g carbs, 15-20g protein and no fat. I made no progress. He had me go down to 1000 calories; still no results. To top it off, I’m not even hungry when it’s “eating time.â€? Now I only eat about 600-800 calories a day because I don’t get hungry. I am taking one ephedrine in the morning and one early afternoon. I bob up and down between 147 and 151 pounds. If you didn’t know me, you’d probably think I was lying. I should be about 90 pounds at this point, but I’m not. I recently went to the doctor to have my hormone levels checked and he said that my TSH and WK\UR[LQ 7 OHYHOV DUH Ă€QH He did mention that my T3 levels were normal, but on the low side. Maybe I’m not human! Please help.

ANSWER: :KHQ \RX Ă€UVW VWDUWHG your “dietâ€? regimen, you were consuming way too many carbohydrates, too little protein and no essential fatty acids. No wonder you weren’t making any progress! When you cut your intake down to 600-800 calories

per day, you were eating way too little food (and probably the wrong composition of calories). This severe dietary restriction on your part caused your body to panic and think that it was in some sort of state of starvation. In response, it slowed down your metabolic rate by decreasing the rate of conversion of the inactive thyroid hormone (T4) into the active thyroid metabolite 7 7KLV IDFW LV HDVLO\ FRQĂ€UPHG E\ your reported thyroid function test (TFT). Additionally, I suspect that the reason your appetite has been in the metabolic “toilet’ is that you’re taking ephedrine twice a day. In addition to promoting fat loss, it also acts as a central nervous system stimulant and appetite suppressant. What’s the solution to your problem, you ask? First of all, I would suggest HDWLQJ Ă€YH VPDOO PHDOV SHU GD\ VSDFLQJ them every three-to-four hours). These meals should consist of approximately 30 grams of lean protein from sources VXFK DV Ă€VK FKLFNHQ EUHDVW 2PHJD eggs, high quality whey protein and lean sources of red meat. Additionally, it’s imperative (especially for women) to consume adequate amounts of essential fatty acids (EFAs) HYHU\ GD\ &KRRVH IURP Ă D[VHHG RLO IDWW\ Ă€VKHV VXFK DV VDOPRQ DQG VZRUGĂ€VK raw almonds or walnuts for good source of essential Omega-3 fatty acids; and take Evening Primrose Oil pills (3-6g per day) for a great source of the essential Omega-6-fatty acid, GLA (gamma linolenic acid). Finally, carbohydrates should be your “expendableâ€? nutrients since they only serve to elevate insulin levels and, as we all know, insulin stores calories as fat. These simple PRGLĂ€FDWLRQV WR \RXU PHDO SODQ ZLOO KHOS transform your body from a fat storer into a fat mobilizer. One more thing - try to avoid taking stimulant-based fat burners since not only do they raise heart rate and blood pressure, they also stress out the body and cause excessive Cortisol release which, in the long run, will cause you to lose lean muscle and thus reduce your metabolic rate.
