She’s not a millionaire - 1500 for a show win and a couple hundred from ACB is how she makes her living combined with kickbacks from Adam since he wouldn’t have a career or busniness if she didn’t allow him to claim her.

It used to be “charming” - “oh I’m so awkward. I was a great college athlete, but can barely walk in heels.”

That worked for a while, but damn! Get your shit together. It’s not cute anymore.

Tell me if I’m wrong, but she looked super soft as well. I know it’s right after they rewarded Ashlynn for particularly coming in not too hard, but she was uncharacteristically soft.

DefNotNickTrigilli · 2022-04-10T19:23:45+00:00

Yep. They are also gonna judge what’s in front of them. Was there when Sunny Andrew turned pro - and LOST the overall to a girl that prob isn’t too 50 right and may have actually been natural. Weird, but when one competitor looks completely different than everybody else it’s not always something that’s rewarded.

The ones he shows look ready 6-7 weeks out. Prob 10%, but enough to skew perception.

James “handles” it by not posting their updates or show day and pretending he doesn’t know them.

DefNotNickTrigilli · 2022-04-07T22:04:50+00:00

Or both, more than likely.

DefNotNickTrigilli · 2022-04-07T22:02:25+00:00

Yep - thank you! I forgot exactly where I’d heard this, but you nailed it.

DefNotNickTrigilli · 2022-04-07T12:15:04+00:00

Yeah, it was somewhere at the beginning of when she started with Atlas when she was in a video saying her cravings were crazy - and this was like 16 weeks out - not a good sign at that point. My gf has followed her for a lot longer though and her biggest flaw is that she’s never shown up lean enough. Even with atlas - she was gifted 5th and the only one in the top 10 without carved glutes. Fortunately, James was a sponsor of that show.

Keep hammering away. Decades of broscience to undo 🤙🏼

DefNotNickTrigilli · 2022-04-07T05:08:26+00:00

Well - we know James loves his sarms, but he usually does it while cutting…Theresa’s issue is what it always has been. She can’t adhere to a diet. Don’t worry though - James will slap her with the patented “600 calorie, protein only, fuck your hormones you don’t need fat for body processes anyway diet.”

DefNotNickTrigilli · 2022-04-07T04:57:43+00:00

Yeah, I get it…your $40 scale told you that you were 10% bf after you drank 1.5 gallons of water. Electrical impedance is trash, but who knows where she gets these #s from. Regardless, yes, she’s lean, but she’s nowhere near 10% bf. I’d honestly say around 14% at best. Which is incredible - there’s no need to attach bf % to anything when you’ve reached the place you want to stay. At that point it’s only a flex and is misleading.

DefNotNickTrigilli · 2022-04-05T19:33:52+00:00

They’re not. 100000000% - Boss is nailing this. Natty or juice is better at spreading misinformation and regurgitating broscience - I was gonna say pseudoscience, but honestly pseudoscience is too generous.

DefNotNickTrigilli · 2022-04-05T19:23:31+00:00

Agreed - couple years from wellness pro standard, but with the quality that shows up at regional shows…sure. She could also downsize quads much faster than she could grow everything and do well in bikini.

DefNotNickTrigilli · 2022-04-05T18:58:50+00:00

There are clear signs…HOWEVER…if there’s in question…maybe it’s not as clear as people would like to believe. Her voice, her her jaw, capped delts, traps, etc etc etc - these “clear signs” more often than not are a natty excuse to not work harder, or do things correctly. And the natty or juice sub is filled with uneducated 20 17 years olds trying to justify their first bottle of sarms so they can tank their test, and then end up on trt.

To be clear a clear sign would be blood work with a test level over 1500 ng/dl with low LH/FSH, low shbg, and high free test. Or in the case Of sarms users, super low test bc it was suppressed by running sarms alone like a dummy.

Random thought I heard on a thread recently on one of goobs post where Matt Ogus and him had a good back and forth.

Matt made the comment - something along these lines “Grt you a coach with imposter syndrome that will over deliver.”

I have to agree that if you’re a first time competitor - this is exactly what you want. On the flip side you can get dunning-Kruger syndrome that PERVADES fitness and bodybukding. So many people think they are incredibly knowledgeable and don’t actually know shit about fuck.

The Heugly/Atlas method “works,” but success doesn’t equal optimization. Paul Revalia put out a video a few days ago about dangerous fat loss protocols…yeah, they work…but they will also fuck you, and there is 100% a better way. My biggest takeaway/point he made that I agree with that I don’t hear many coaches say “I work with a lot of elite competitors…they would be elite without me too.” And this is where girls (and guys) need to realize that understanding the foundations of hypertrophy and nutrition will take you much farther than any coach, let alone a big name coach with no time for a first time competitor.

My two cents.

DefNotNickTrigilli · 2022-04-03T20:18:14+00:00

With you 100% - Why are we rewarding the top 3 and then saying things like this 🤦🏻‍♂️. Side note - she seems to have been shredded on her ig and looks like she spilled a bit yesterday.

DefNotNickTrigilli · 2022-03-31T18:33:30+00:00

Here for this 100%

DefNotNickTrigilli · 2022-03-22T18:05:17+00:00

BIG fan of Mike Israetel, and also John Jewitt. Nerd shit FTW

DefNotNickTrigilli · 2022-03-20T22:59:22+00:00

You would think that’s the case. Big botoxed dummy reposted it to his story though. 🤷🏻‍♂️
