Personally I do this for results. So I'll do what gets me the best results for the lifestyle I live and amount of effort/sacrifice I'm willing to put in.
There's nothing wrong with the simple approach. It's easy. If you're a simple person then it works even better. But none of the supplements I've posted are particularly difficult to comprehend what they do. Same for more complicated steroid cycles that I prefer to use which work on multiple pathways rather than hammering the AR with a giant sledgehammer.
As far as me being qualified to be a coach. I'd say I'm qualified because I've been studying this stuff since the 90s, taking on clients formally since 2006, and have a relatively low turnover rate with my clients.
Have I been on the bodybuilding stage? No. I'm personally coming from a sports background then transitioned to powerlifting with a quick dabble in strongman, which I've competed in both. I would have LOVED to be able to compete in bodybuilding.
The world is full of examples of coaches who never competed so clearly that's a not a good point.
I will say, the majority of my clients are regular civilians that only require the "simple approach" so a supplement stack for them rarely goes past vitastack, Vit d, melatonin, and ubiquenol. But I'd greatly prefer more competitors and athletes so I could use more of the detailed approach I prefer.
Fair enough. I am new to the forum so I am trying to distinguish whose word holds value around here and who is full of shit.
In my home country, bodybuilding, we take it pretty seriously so I will disagree with some of what you say. When you call yourself coach, stage experience would be important so your word holds weight especially amongst clients and your peers. I mean how could one speak on and prescribe on processes they have never experienced themselves?
It seems like nowadays anyone can call themselves a coach even the 300lb kid eating Twinkies in his basement watching RX Muscle videos on YouTube. I suppose the available information nowadays makes it easier and anyone can learn. Thanks for the reply!
