White Rice vs Brown Rice? Which do you prefer?

hey pj. i just got done with my 4th bodybuilding show. all is well but now in offseason. i always enjoy white potatos and bagles in the offseason. are these okay? i feel with the faster carbs i stayn less bloated than with ezkiel and brown rice. i like bagles or grits in the AM with eggs, and i like home made homefries post workout with chicken or more egg whites
With my clients I am 50/50. With me 100% WHITE!! Brown rice does not sit well with me, and bloats me bad.
There is nothing wrong with either of those choices, I think its foolish to eat the same all the time.
I think they certainly have a place in the world of dieting thats for sure. A ketogenic diet is IDEAL for someone "obese" or very HI in bodyfat, tehy are also very good diet plans for diabetics and the elderly. If your bodyfat doesnt get out of hand or if your a hard gainer, then you are missing out on the great anabolic effect of carbohydrates and insulin. For that reason I do not use a ketogenic plan on MYSELF. I used a Keto plan for ac ouple years working with Dave Palumbo, I was able to lose weight easily and was never hungry. I was able to get VERY lean but could not fill out come show time and ended up very flat.

Hey PJ I heard you talking about training your arms light i.e. higher volume at a lower weight to avoid over working your arm muscles if you train your back, chest, shoulders heavy...Can you expand a little bit on this concept? Thanks-Trevor at FoundatioNutrition BeFNstrong.com
Thanks for the answer PJ. Great thread
My approach is fst pased, short rest periods, lots of supersets and drop sets, lotsof cables for triceps and db's for biceps. A sample workout would look something like this:
Rope pushdowns 5 sets of 20-25 reps varrying contraction angles
Seated dip machine 4 sets of 15-20 reps
strait bar pushdowns- 4 sets of 15 reps
Single arm reverse grip pushdowns 3 sets of 15-20 per arm
single arm over head cable extensions 3 sets at failure between 15-2o reps
Standing Cable curl alternating between close and wide grip 4 sets of 20 reps
Altternating DB curls 4 sets of 12-15 reps
incline curls- 3 sets of failure between 15-20 reps
hammer curls- 3 sets of 12-15 reps
ALL exercises are done with only about 30-45 sec rest
My pleasure!
Well thank you I appreciate that. When I was younger I was honored to be signed with any compmay and Dave was kind enough to sponsor me. I grew under him and learned from him and now I am very, I repeat VERY happy to be doing what I am doing for IRONMAGLABS!

PJ, what do your HCG doses look like when you blast and cruise assuming you use HCG while on? Do you think it's safe to run low doses for long periods of time for somebody who doesn't come off?

PJ, am currently a few weeks away from my 2nd show. Wanted to try dieting on my own at first to get a feel for my body.. Anyways im slightly disappointed with my conditioning and know now i want assistance for whenever i compete again (probably not for at least a year). How far in advance of the beginning of a 16 week diet do you prefer clients to contact you so that you can get info and diet planning together?
Have you had a lagging muscle group when you first started? If so, how did you bring it up to par with the rest of your body? Your symmetry is incredibly. I'm having a hard time bringing my chest up to par with the rest of my physique. I'm lacking clear separation from my clavicle, and my chest doesn't pop out much 
I've been hitting it twice a week. Typically Monday and Friday. My routine has been Monday-chest/back/calves Tuesday-arms wednesday-legs thursday-shoulders friday-chest/back and saturday is just light legs focusing on isolation.

I am strongly AGAINST hcg while on and feel it should ONLY be used whrn off!
If you conatact me by 20 weeks out that should be more than enough time. Once a client is paid up I start firing over starting information within 24 hours.
I am stil trying to bring my legs up!! One thing I find people do when trying to bring up a lagging bodypart is over train it...sounds like a good idea to train it more right? Well I disagree! i feel it shold be trained HARD and then put to rest for a solid week! Hit the chest from many differetn angles and many different rep ranges and change the workouts around consistently. Try this for your chest:Have you had a lagging muscle group when you first started?

Incline Barbell Press- 4 sets of 8-10 reps
Flat benchpress- fast and explosive- 3 sets of at least 20 reps with the same weight
Incline DB press- 4 sets of 10-12 reps
Incline DB flys- 3 sets of 8-10 reps
cable crossovers- 5 sets of 15-20 reps squeezing the contractions hard!
I train the same weather I am bulking or dieting. The diet is waht changes. For large bodyparts like legs and back I will commonly do 20 working sets. SMaller bodyparts around 12-15. I like VOLUME!
Looking fricken amazing in the new banner!

PJ since your a competitor, how long does post show bloat last ? i am back on a clean diet and doing cardio and its freaking offseason!!! i cheated the day after and that was it. that was a week and a half ago and i still have horrible bloat!! i look like damn Michelin man. i did get really really dehydrated and took a diuretic the day of the show, so im guessing this is just the rebound and will take time? im only up 15 lbs but it is pure water, siting right on my stomach, like its pissing me off because it wont go away, it looks horrendous. its off season and i just dieted for 16 weeks strait, and im still NOT CHEATING because this damn bloat !

Got a couple ?s..You said for offseason a good cycle for putting on mass would be Test C,Tren, and possibly an oral like DBol or Anadrol. As you stated b4 u would normally take 750-1000mg a week of test, how man shots do u usually split thus up to? I plan to take 100 mg Dbol first 6 weeks w test and stay on test for 12weeks jw when would u add tren into cycle??? Also once 12weeks is up how much time do u suggest for recovery b4 started another almost identical cycle just substituting Dbol for anadrol and test C for test E.....

PJ, question about your diet. Do you count proteins from your carb sources or only count the complete proteins? I've heard some reputable people say do it one way and the other say the complete opposite. I just don't want to be taking in too little protein while cutting and lose muscle or take in too much protein while dieting and hinder fat loss.
