Need to be sufficient intensity or overload or there'll be no reaction.

And then you need to recover from that.

And let's just put it straight out there, man.

You know, there's a big difference between somebody using anabolic steroids than somebody that's not.

So somebody that's using can recover from that process more quickly than somebody that isn't.

So I feel I should always say this because when you're looking at a champion bodybuilder and how he trains and you're a young guy trying to build up,

That's probably not appropriate for you right now.

That guy has already got the size and is refining for a competition or something.

So that's the idea, to do enough to stimulate, but not more than that, because this is an overload that you've got to recover from.

So you've got to recover before you grow as well.

So you don't want to go back to the gym before that whole process has taken place.

So I use some simple analogies sometimes when people are training with me.

Like, we're going in now.

We're knocking a wall down, right?

We're rehabbing your house.

We're knocking a wall down.

And the guys need to come now with the bricks.

So they need materials and they need to do it.

But they're halfway through building that wall and you come and knock it down again.

We're not getting anywhere, you know?
