The Bodybuilders Thread: Circuit II

So two noticeable names in Bodybuilding has passed away in the last 2 days.

First Dallas McCarver choked on food and today Rich Piana passed away after being in a medical induced coma for a few weeks after collapsing at his girlfriend's home.
Argh no, going to miss Rich! What a character? Bit of a lunatic though.
 
Almost as bad as the local body builder who broke his neck attempting a back flip?

That looked instant at least... though I could be totally wrong there.

On Rich Piana
Piana, whose mother was a body-builder in Los Angeles, California, got introduced to the world of weightlifting when he was just 11-years-old, after going to the gym to watch her train, according to Daily Mail. He began weightlifting shortly after, and competed for the first time at age 15.

After a few unsuccessful competitions, Piana turned to steroids to help him bulk up at around age 18.

In one of his training videos, Piana explained his choice, saying, “If you have the choice to steroids or stay natural, stay natural stay natural. There’s no reason to do steroids, you’re only hurting your body and hurting yourself. But if you want to become a professional bodybuilder, guess what? You’re probably going to have to f**cking do them, you’re not going to have a choice. That’s the boat I was in.”

“I was competing on stage and I was getting to the point where I was getting blown off stage if I wasn’t going to do steroids, so I took that step.”

Piana estimates that he was spending $2,500 on growth hormone per month, without even taking steroids into account, according to Daily Mail.

Why are they sickening?

I have some acquaintances in the fitness industry, and the social media posts make it look as if though they've all been to the same class. It's a constant ass licking contest between them, posting irrelevant random poetic bullschit trying to sound motivational, #blessed or #soblessed at least a few times a day. Fck, I know it's probably just me, but I unfollowed all those fckers.
 
Hey I wonder why!!! :rolleyes:

Fcken feeling blessed. Jassis these fitness and bodybuilding guys on social media are sickening.

his diet was ***** he ate at McDonald’s everyday for over 20 years ordering four Big Macs, four orders of fries, two milkshakes, and four personal-size apple pies

Oh my word. Didn't think I would ever see this day. I actually agree with something Slootvreter posted.
 
Regarding ab exercises what is better;

Doing say 1 chest exercise (3 sets) and then 3 sets abs and then onto the next chest exercise and then again abs

Or

Finish entire workout and then all of the ab exercises at the end after each other?

Better in terms of what? What are you trying to achieve?
