If you do nothing else all day from a supplement or nutritional standpoint make sure you at least follow your workouts with a whey isolate and carbohydrate drink mix. (My favorite mix is AST Sports Science VP2 Whey Isolate, Micronized Creatine, GL3 L-Glutamine and a liquid carbohydrate like DGC.)The post workout time period is the most important time of the day to supply vital muscle building...

A lot of times I think drug free bodybuilders are “missing the dollars to pick up the pennies”. (Paul Delia, creator of Max-OT, told me that saying years ago and I loved it so I’ve used it ever since!) Or in other words, they over analyze things when it comes to their workouts and thus waste a lot of mental energy and many times even impede results by implementing less efficient...

I thought I would share parts of the question and my answer as it is fairly common one and you may find it helpful. Q: “….I think it’s because I don’t see anyone else train this way (Max-OT) but they all...

The steroid free bodybuilder needs to avoid the more is better mentality when it comes to set and rep volume as well as workout frequency. Over training is one of muscle buildings biggest enemies. I see it all the time. The guy who wants bigger biceps going from exercise to exercise, rep after rep, set after set to exhaustion. The total workout time for that one body part is more than double one...

Even when you are striving for maximum hardness and muscle separation it is important to keep the weight training heavy and basic. Don’t fall prey to the notion that high rep training will some how etch in muscle detail or my favorite, “high reps will bring out striations.” Neither of these is accurate. Heavy basic lifts done Max-OT style will set things up so you continue to...
