As for attaining theosis, I'm afraid I'm still very "weak" in that department, but I hope you find some of my stuff insightful nonetheless.C.S.

Steve Hunt here, and I was just surfing Google looking for more tips on structuring my training, (frequency, volume, reps, etc), and was very pleased to find your blog and how thoughtful your advice is. Better than any I've seen thus far. And then, I read your profile and am VERY pleased and feel blessed to see that you are Orthodox. I thought, wow, I'm right where I want to be. Just thought I'd let you know, and I can't wait to find the time and read much more of your stuff, here, as well as on Blue Jean Theosis, your old stuff, as well as anything new you write; theosis being my favorite subject of all time, even though I'm a far cry from coming close to where I want to be in my own spiritual journey. Anyway, I'm a 'weak' 56-year old trying to get both physically and spiritually stronger, and your blog is very fitting for me at this stage in my life. Glad I found you and I'm glad you're doing what you're doing. <br />Warm regards,<br />SteveAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3211346126539007570.post-75195570392487682982014-04-20T09:32:25.995-05:002014-04-20T09:32:25.995-05:00same here bro, but unlike you I have downloaded th...same here bro, but unlike you I have downloaded the BBB for free recently. It's not perfect but I love their chart about the Bio-energetic field. I agree with them there that the goal of bodybuilding is the "side-effect" of other sports which is muscle gain, making it more complicated and it's approach not as direct as you would for other sports.<br /><br />BTW I have linked this article up in the <a href="http://aboutlifting.com/testosterone-filled-easter-eggs/" rel="nofollow">Easter special Testosterone Linkfest</a><br /><br />Keep it up broAboutliftinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00740112081812006626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3211346126539007570.post-83352730353674929482014-04-19T13:32:11.922-05:002014-04-19T13:32:11.922-05:00I still like some of Parillo's stuff - in fact...I still like some of Parillo's stuff - in fact, I still reference his book "High Performance Bodybuilding" on occasion. It sits on the book shelf along with the rest of my relics from that time. His nutritional info is still spot on for someone looking to pack on muscle. I used his dietary information "to a T" in the '90s.<br /><br />As for your self-serving question, the answer is "yes." I've known quite a few lifters who have done it. I have done it myself once, in fact. I did a meet one weekend while not quite at my peak - trained the following Tuesday and Wednesday - then hit some even better numbers at the 2nd meet.<br /><br />That was when I was first starting out, however. Eventually, I reached the point where I would only do 2 meets a year to hit my most optimal lifts.C.S.

Very timely piece as Costa's ideas seem to be making a comeback and high frequency training is all the rage. In fact, a former DC advocate is soon releasing a training program with its origins in BBB. Was never a fan of Costa's systems, if any ideas from the 90's were to resurface id want it to be John Parillo ...on a more self serving note, have seen anyone compete on consecutive weekends (PL)?<br /><br />Happy Easter!<br />JasonJ.Robertshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02642006665543232774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3211346126539007570.post-89012101474687273552014-04-19T10:38:00.344-05:002014-04-19T10:38:00.344-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.J.Robertshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02642006665543232774noreply@blogger.com
