This is fascinating . What a treasure trove of knowledge 👍🏻

That makes so much sense. Great info!

CT is an ol G in the iron game. He has been around a long time; writing for T-nation back in the day (still does) and created many programs that are still in use today that most copy a derivative of. Supplements and nutrition also he was the pioneer of what you see today such as intra workout, GDA’s, proteins and a plethora of other products

Knowledge bomb 🔥

Man, all the stuff I've watched / read, i never even gave the water retention - joint compression thing a thought. Very interesting.

Thib rules. I wish he was back posting on KZfaq

For a moment there i thought that was George Saint Pierre

I’ve read a lot of his articles, and he seems like a pretty knowledgeable source for training methodologies and things like that. But is he natural? Not entirely sure.

It's really interesting how Christian talks about the Sheiko program as not being very stimulative for muscle growth, especially with a lot of research coming out pointing to the volume of tension being the main driver of hypertrophy. I'll have to reach out to get some clarification! In my head, I wonder what his volume looked like or what his training prior to that block looked like. I'm sure he has some special insight that I am not seeing here. Thanks again for sharing.

This guy used to be on tnation forums claiming he was natural.

See dudes, respect to what you achieved, but to me a belt is cheating.
