Rail Thin Man’s Transformation Into A Bodybuilding Hulk Is Both Scary And Incredible

You know those transformation episodes on “Maury” when they show pictures of a skinny dude, and then that same dude walks onto the set, only now he’s on steroids and the women are going crazy? Well, that’s sort of how this story goes, but instead of steroids it took a crazy work ethic (and a lot of tribal tattoos).

Martyn Ford, who was a 6’8, lanky guy, has gone through an insane transformation, which now has him at 323 lb. and looking like something that would kill you with a simple stare. The gym owner has now been cast in a movie called “Undisputed 4” because of his shear size.

Check out Ford now, thanks to pictures on his Instagram, pictures that also include advice for other people that want to look like him:

Chest routine today – I’m looking at growing and trying to fill out my upper chest more, I really want to work on getting a thicker, more balanced physique, so I will be focusing my training around this. Woth that in mind, this will be my chest (part 1) work out, later in the wk I will hit the chest again with more focus on isolation movements, getting the stretch and contraction working at its maximum. Today’s session: Dumbbell chest press incline / inclined chest flys Dumbbells / inclined barbell / flat cable flys / dumbbell flat bench press – I hit the compound movements heavy, with a spotter and reached 7-9 reps, I got a few extra forced reps In while really concentrating on the negative and the hold, also full contraction of the movement. I did 3 working sets of each, with 45-60 second rest, I picked one exercise (inc dumbbell) and did a set of 40-50 reps with relevant weight that allowed me to hit that range. I also upped my intake of carbs pre workout to see if it gave me any extra advantage, and I have to say I did have a good session, so that may of helped, no matter what level you are, you can always learn! Education and dedication is the key to success #martynford #betabodz #richpiana #fivepercent #5%

Cardio? Should I , shouldn’t I? Very quick answer for all training , YES!!!!! Now if you want to read on, I will explain why. First and foremost the obvious, your health! And for some reason this still isn’t a good enough reason? Bizarre but true! Now to sell this to all you muscle hungry monsters! Lol Why do cardio for gains? I’m not saying to do intervals, intense fart Lek or fasted state cardio! This is simply, steady state cardio, slow and steady, nice comfortable speed. You won’t be breaking any world records, but this isn’t the objective! By doing moderately intensive cardio, the bloody flow will be increased in those areas been used. This has HUGE affects on recovery and recovery speed! This is due to fresh nutrients been delivered to the relevant areas and the waste products (toxins) been taken away. Just remember that the body will only deliver the fresh toxins to the areas the blood is been pumped to! This of your muscles as tyres on a car! If you pump up your back tyre, don’t expect your front one to inflate at the same time! So make the cardio relevant to the areas worked! Bike ideal for legs, tower, swimming, arm based cardio machine or crosstrainer with arm motion great for upper body. If your bulking I would stick to 15-20 min post session, and be sure to take your drink on board straight away! Remember the aim of this isn’t fat loss! It’s recovery! So if you are a hard gainer, and find your losing weight, don’t be afraid to drink carb drink during so your body is burning the fuel from that rather than fat or muscle tissue. #cardio #training #educational #youtube #martynford #gains #bloodysweattears

Upper and inner chest! Ok so here is a few pointers that I will be following in my next chest session. Upper chest, incline barbell chest press (will alternate each wk with dbs) be sure to set up correctly! Even the best sometimes forget! Chest should be the highest body part, this is done by retracting shoulde blades, lift chest high, slight arch in back. Once bar is in place slowly lower, you want to keep elbows close , if they drift to wide you will be press on with your shoulders to much. Take the bar as drop as you can, ideally touching the chest, wen you extend you don’t lock your arms out, going to high in the motion just activates triceps , so your continuous tension on the chest is reduced! Now here is a great tip for inner chest! Work with a partner, when you are flying , get him to push against the inside of your forearms, not to much, just enough so you can really the resistance against you. The idea is your trying to do a slow 3-4 second contraction under control and he/she is pushing. This will tear much more muscle fibres this way and excellent for bringing up the middle chest #tips #chest #martynford #training

How muscles grow! As a beginner I believe it’s vital to understand the basics of the human anatomy and how it works. Building muscles can be a frustrating game at times, so if you have an understanding of how the process works and realistic time frames for success then you are more likely to stick with fitness and achieve your goals. Muscles contract and work in the body when they receive a signal. Motor neurons send this signal and tell your muscles to contract, the better the signal the stronger the contraction. Strength comes from the ability of the muscles to react to the signal, so muscle size is not always a true observation of strength. When you first start lifting weights you won’t grow that much in muscle size in comparison to your strength increase. This is purely down to your repetition of the movement and your body learning how to trigger the muscles correctly to stimulate movement. Motor unit skills are been learned here. After this phase, you will then start to see gains in muscle size. Once you have trained your muscles then start to repair. The damaged muscle fibres are then repair or replaced in a cellular process where it fuses muscle fibres together to form new protein strands. These increase in thickness and size to Create muscle growth. This adaptation happens not while you train but while you rest. So be sure to train hard and eat well for maximum gains. Co district and longevity are how you build a good physique. No supplement or magic protein powder is going to do that. Hard work, correct planning and consistent dedication. #education #muscle #beginner
