He had more gains in 2 years, than me in 4 years. Although I would say, I am carrying his legacy quite nicely in terms of bodybuilding, and trolling chicks in real life.









I am still baffled how so many people in team liquid know about bodybuilding and pickup.

RIP, the vanity of the human mind truly amazes me sometimes. I don't understand why somebody would purposely push one's body far beyond the body's tolerance. There's a fine line between inspiration and ignorance.

Wow, can't believe I heard this first on TL of all places. Zyzz was inspirational and it's sad that he's gone, I can barely believe it. He inspired many, including myself to start lifting for aesthetics.

To any ignorant posters, pre-empting from replies in other threads, do not hate because Zyzz took steroids, steroids do not cause cardiac arrest and he never lied about his use.

Bodybuilding is not so much about knowledge as it is stuffing your face with food and getting your ass to the gym.

Why do you think there are so many meatheads that are successful at it? Its simply a matter of going for it. Its not the knowledge that pushes you to finish that last rep.

No, just no.
You're not carrying anything from his legacy.
Zyzz is Zyzz and nobody can compare.
It'd be selfish to think you're at his level.
You might look good, but then again so do a million others.

I can't really agree with this. Knowledge helps you use the correct form, correct nutrition, increase mobility, realize that compound movements > isolation in terms of overall growth, etc..

There are meatheads with the Jersey Shore build, sure, but you'll never be GREAT if you just blindly eat and bicep curl.

Where did I say that you don't need any knowledge at all? You are obviously missing the point of my post and you are arguing something that everyone already knows.

Knowledge itself is not the make or break point of someone getting into a decent shape. By decent, I am talking about being in the top 10% of the population. All the bodybuilding, nutrition, form, equipment knowledge that you ever need is on the internet, then why do so many people fail? Its laziness and fear of pain and hard work.

Of course if you want to be Mr Olympia you need great trainers, and a lot of knowledge since you are competing in a very small subset of people who at the pinnacle. Is like that for any sport. The more advanced you are, the more special training you will need because you need that small edge. Its like learning something new at anything. When you start out, you get massive growth without a lot of gimmicks and tricks. As you hit a plateau, the complexity of the training increases. You tell a 500 pound fat guy to lose weight, he can do nothing but jumping jacks and still lose weight. You tell someone whos at 6% body fat to lose weight, takes a little bit more since you are already on one side of the spectrum.
