Dude has great genetics but I don't believe a damn thing he says:heh: Could've swore dude said he ate nothing but one chicken noodle soup everyday:dead: I think he's said he's a schizo too

He said he only eats one meal a day, and that is at night because that is how it always been. I think this is the cause of his mental problems, because when you do schoolwork, then physical work all day, and only eat one meal at night, your brain becomes stressed, and this is why he has mental issues. His body looks that way because he never gave it a chance to keep onto fat. The food he ate at night was able to repair his muscle, and the rest that turned to fat got burned the following day with him being so active, and eating nothing during the daytime. EVERYONE can look muscular if they have low fat. His muscle grew because he has been living like this for years, unfortunately it gave him a mental condition, in my opinion.

I don't really think that is totally true. Mike was known to hit the heavy bag fast with all of his power. That is almost like lifting weights, because he is not just relying on his own weight, but pushing the punching bag to allow his muscles to build energy overtime for a powerful punch. The thing is he is doing all important workouts for boxing in one session.

He is hitting a heavy bag fast which is equivalent to weightlifting, he is constantly hitting for a number of minutes which is equivalent to hitt cardio, and he is punching which trains his muscles for good snap action. In theory, you can be powerful if you separate all of the things, and do them properly.

I think what's real important, and which most people overlook, is what he ate. When he was with Cus" D'Amato, he ate steak, and pasta everyday. Steak is high in good fats, as well as protein, which helps build up your slow twitch muscle. This muscle is dense, and very tough, so imagine having a lot of it, and hitting someone. The tough, and chewy dark meat when you eat food is the slow twitch fibers.

The pasta helps build his fast twitch muscles which is why he was able to be fast. The white colored more chewable meat when you eat food is the fast twitch muscles. He had both things that's needed to be powerful, in a high amount because he was a heavyweight. I think if he did his workout in more detail, he may have been dangerous because being dense in the right muscles, AND knowing how to fight, can make someone reckless if they don't know how to handle that much power.

Funny!

That is how the body works. Do more research for Fast twitch muscles, slow twitch muscles, sympathetic nervous system, and parasympathetic nervous system. What you won't learn, without putting two, and two, together,is that fat and protein is needed to fuel and rebuild the slow twitch, and carbohydrates with protein, preferably complex, to fuel and rebuild the fast twitch. It's not broscience.

Burn Fat Build Muscle (Best Weight Loss Method) | TweakFit

Fast-Twitch Muscles

Fast-twitch muscles activate during short and intense physical activities. For example, when you are maxing out in benching, your pectoral fast-twitch muscles are being used.

The benefit of fast-twitch muscles is that it gives you explosiveness and short-lived enormous strength. Because fast-twitch muscles need energy quickly to perform intense activities, fast-twitch muscles rely primarily on a consumption-ready reserve of carbohydrates (glucose in your blood stream) for fast conversion into energy.

The drawback of fast-twitch muscles is that once your consumption-ready carbohydrate reserves are depleted, your fast-twitch muscles ceases to function. This is why most people who weight train with heavier weights have longer rest periods in between sets (the body uses this rest period to rebuild a consumption-ready reserve of carbohydrates for the next lifting set).

Slow-Twitch Muscles

Slow-twitch muscles are activated during long workout routines with low-intensity or endurance training. For example, when you are repping out in benching, your pectorial slow-twitch muscles are being used.

The drawback of slow-twitch muscles, is that it cannot react as quickly as fast-twitch and you cannot use it for any intense physical activities.

The benefit of slow-twitch muscles is that it is resistant to fatigue. Also, because slow-twitch muscles do not need energy as quickly as fast-twitch muscles, its primary source of energy comes from fat cells. Slow-twitch muscles are also more resistant to catabolism.

you misread that post then

you dont synthesize either type of muscle with carbs. its just the fuel needed for each muscle. which is half right
