TweetBrundel have you ever heard of the no animal diet and heart health. My aunt had 3 heart attacks and doctors told her she should plan for her death. Then she read about the no animal diet created by a heart specialist at Cleveland Clinic. It is 6-8 meals a day of no meats and no Dairy. All soy and Organic vegetables. Also sure you could do protein shakes. She totally reversed her problems and her arteries are clean with no blockage and her cholesterol is 180 points lower after just six months. Now she takes no meds and is heart healthy. You should have a look at it and anyone else who has heart issues should too. It has also been shown to help cancer patients. Pretty much a vegan diet.

I believe it^^^^


I for one believe that a raw food diet can heal just about any illness or health issue out there, even cancer. I do raw juice cleanses/detoxes, just started this year and will be doing another one in 2013. there are natty BBers who are also vegan and raw foodists, it can be done.

TweetI have not heard of it and IM sure it helps her, however......
My arteries are clear and I did not have a heart attack it was a cardiac arrest.
My ldl is 50 so.....its already abnormally low.

Diet wasnt the cause. The cause was hormonal abnormalities .....too much/ to many steroids in my system which caused an arrythmia.

Last year I know of 5 guys in their 30s who had cardiac arrests while using steroids. Only I lived out of the 5.

TweetThe sad thing is...out of the hundreds of people I have told this to.....only one person said " yup there are risks to what we do". Hes still on a shit ton of gear but he fully understand that it can and does kill people.

There are risks in crossing the street. We are using chemicals that alter our bodies. The risks are obvious, to acknowledge them is our responsibility, to go into this with blinders on is moronic. I knew with my first pin what the repercussions were, I accepted them and decided they were worth the risk to me. It's not a game for the timid or faint of heart.

TweetNope. In addition, I wouldnt change a thing except perhaps dosage if I could. Id still do it again if I could go back in time.
Id probably lower the dose a bit but Id certainly do the gear again. I love the gear fueled life.

TweetOh. Anabolic. I went back to DC. Today is day 2 of my 2 day rest day. Im gonna follow everything to the T.
I could use some recommendations for exercises. I cant do close grips. My shoulder cant handle the weight my tris can.

Current update. No pictures. IM too fat for pictures but.....
Im up in the 220s.
About 12% abs visible when I flex but not when Im relaxed.

Strength is almost on par with pre cardiac arrest. THis is awesome because IM only on my HRT.

Shoulder injury:
First month after CPR and trying to escape while restrained in the hospital injured my shoulder I could not pour a cup of coffee. Not sure what the injury is exactly.
Trying to curl 25lbs and I just couldnt. Not from a lack of strength in the bicep but instead some lack of strength in the shoulder. Other arm was capable of curling 30s at the time.
Last night - good clean set of 10 with the 55's. Not super heavy but this means I can grab the 70's and get a few with no swing. Plenty strong for me.

Soon Ill level off and begin a cut. We will see where I land.

Healthy and happy though. Back to where I love training and I feel like Im making gains.
Awesome

Glad to hear you are doing better!

TweetThanks Baby1.

2 hand overhead triceps extensions, reverse grip bench if you can, push downs if the weight stack is heavy enough, lying dumbbell extensions holding a dumbbell in each hand, French presses, rope extensions if the weight stack is enough. Lots of variables, do what you can progress on and keeps you pain free.

TweetI have one other limitation. I have a defib in my chest. The wires snake through my collarbone so....anything overhead I have to limit. I think I can probably do most of those though.
Im having to limit military press and pull ups etc....

TweetHow you doing Brundel?

TweetGood!
My weight is comparable to when I was On and my strength is 95%.
Im a little softer than I like but its to be expected.

I feel fantastic and Im training like a beast. Im just happy that I can continue to train and live a spartan lifestyle.
I love bodybuilding. Its not necessarily about how big I am but just living the lifestyle.

So, Im happy and healthy. Black Lion is doing well and we are preparing to release 2 new products.
Life is good.

Thank you for asking Baby1
