Branch Warren looked ridiculous. Huge and striated all over. Jay looked real good too. Sickly striated quads.

Lean, dry, vascular, very full, grainy looking, deep separations.
And all that while looking enormous, arms even looked good.
I was very surprised by Branch.
What did he weigh? I didn't catch the weight on anyone

I'm going to take that Carrot Top comment as a joke, Toasty. But to be honest, I think it's pretty obvious CT is on some juice. And I dont know, but to me, his face looks really fucked up. Maybe its bad plastic surgery, but if not, that's as good of an excuse as any to NOT do steroids.
Why do u need a diuretic? To pass a piss test? Just drink a lot of water and coffee, after 3 cups of coffee and a gallon of water, your pee will be clear as water...

Are you prepping for a show, Toasty? I'd be careful with the diuretics, both with short term and long term use. They can stress out your body big time.

Hey toasty just go get some over the counter water pills, or one of those European body wraps, both with suck out the subcutaneous water for a couple days without the severe risks associated with prescription diuretics.
Carrot top does not look good at all IMO, not big, very smooth, and WTF is wrong with his face????????

Actually, I think Carrot Top has recently put on some size. Did a Burger King commercial with Tony Stewart recently. Looks a good 20 lbs heavier than before. Still not 'big' I guess in comparison to some, but I wouldn't say he's small. I'm thinking he wanted to bulk up so people would think twice about mocking him to his face.
His face just gets weirder and weirder looking over the years. I'm going to place the blame on that to plastic surgery, not anything steroid related...
You know the bodybuilding thread has taken a turn for the worse when we're discussing Carrot Top of all people, but he's a good example of an average dude who's juicing.

Im a very late comer to this thread but like a couple of others I work out more to get that UFC build going on. I dont fight at all but i think a male top level fighter has the optimum body type. There is something evolutionary about it.
Body builders are massive and it is extremely impressive and motivating but in a real world application I think such massve builds have inherant weaknesses, whereas, MMA guys have nothing they dont need and everything they do. Their bodies seem more efficient while also being extremely effective.
Any thoughts on the contrast between the two broad body types?

Uh, if were talking about about speed and flexibility of course the smaller ufc guys are going to come out ahead.
As far as bodybuilders, I've known some severely uncoordinated guys who were huge, and complete wimps.
And some others that were extremely athletic, and moved like cats.
Andy Fiedler (state title holder bodybuilder and world record holding powerlifter) collapsed a guys chest from a single arm open hand push/strike while bouncing at a local bar, that was pretty damn impressive.
Remember Ken Patera and Mr. Shieto?
Two massive wrestlers from the 80's
These guys were in Wisconsin for a show and wanted some McDonald's, so they walked over to MCd from their motel room.
Only the drive thru was open so they just walked up to it, they were refused service for being on foot. So, drunk and angry Shieto throws a huge rock thru MCd's window, and they went back to their hotel room.
Short time later 8 officers showed up at their room to arrest them, well they didn't feel like being arrested and the resulting scuffle sent the majority of the cops to the hospital, one with half the bones in their face broken(that cop retired and had to go to counseling they were so messed up by the expierence)
So you can't always judge a book by it's cover, some BB's I know can barely defend themselves, and others could throw several people around like rag dolls and never even break a sweat.
Tell me first why your looking to cut water?
The effects of any water depletion you do will only be temporary, you will return to how you are now in just a couple days.

I work out 4 days a week and do cardio 7 days a week.
I bulked up to 194lbs this summer and am cutting down to 180ish. Im at 184.
Eating 7 meals a day.
175 grams P
100-150 grams of Complex C
50-75 grams of F
I take branch chain amino acids, whey and glutamine.
I just got off a 3 week cycle of clenbuterol I know I know. Tisk Tisk.
Getting lean and cut up.

Toasty, do you mean subcutaneous water? Maybe you have too much sodium in your diet. There could be several reasons for why your stomach is bloated...
Bobble, I thought this Olympia was Kai's first? From those videos, he's got rhythm. He could be a gogo dancer if bodybuilding doesnt work out.
Vag, you sure you're taking in enough protein? How'd that clen treat you? Did you gain any muscle mass or did it just lean you out?

Man that's a lot of time to spend in the gym. Are you sure you're not over exerting yourself? Even though you're getting results, you may get better results but not doing so much.
This is coming from a bodybuilding point of view so if you're doing this for powerlifting, I apologize
For instance
Mon - back, biceps, forearms
Tue - Thighs, gluts, calves, hamstrings, abs
Wed - rest / cardio (jogging)
Thur - chest, abs
Fri - shoulders, triceps
Sat - off
Sun - rest / cardio (cycling, yoga), abs
You should really try to do certain body parts separate from each other so you don't exhaust the muscles prematurely. You're using your bi's when working back so they shouldn't be worked on the same day. You also use your tri's when working your delts.
The key is peak performance with maximum isolation of the muscle. If the muscle has already been worked from a prior exercise, lactic acid has already started to build thus causing a decrease in the performance of the muscle.
Have you tried probiotics yet? The bloat could be due to improper digestion. I'd try a combo of ginger root and a probiotic like Lactobacillus acidophilus plus add some fiber.
Protein intake should be at least 1g/lbs of body weight.
How many calories are you taking in? An ideal way would be something along the lines of 45% protein 25% carbs and 25% fats.
Clen has recently shown to not be as beneficial as once thought but if you do continue to take it, give at least a good month between the "cycles" for proper recovery. You could add T3 to it to prolong use but then you'd have to be careful of muscle wasting from the T3 so a low dose test cycle added in would be beneficial but I'm not sure how deep you wanna get in the "synthetic" supplementation world
There are many lesser known supps that can really help cut fat from this website
http://www.theafstore.com/home.php
I'd recommend
Glucorell which is alpha lipoic acid
Thermorexin
Cardio Breeze
Sesapure
Yohimburn ES
