Bodybuilder Jeff Everson Has Died

Jeff Everson, owner of Planet Muscle magazine and one-time editor-in-chief of Muscle & Fitness has died. He was 68. A bodybuilding and powerlifting competitor, at his peak Everson won the Masters Nationals, NCP bodybuilding competition and placed 6^th in the Master Division for Mr. Universe.

Everson was married to six-time, Ms. Olympia champion Cory Everson, who is considered one of the best female bodybuilders of all time. Although the couple was divorced, they remained very supportive of one another throughout the years, up until his sudden death on Feb. 25.

His sudden passing was a result of natural causes, according to reports. In an interview with TMZ, Everson's family said that he was complaining of leg and foot pain prior to his death, but he suspected it was from powerlifting and nothing serious, according to the report.

“I’m just very sorry to see that he’s gone,” said bodybuilder Ric Drasin, who posted a tribute video to his late friend.

Here's a blast from the past as Everson demonstrates a combination curl/press to work biceps and deltoids in one exercise.

Our hearts go out to Everson’s family and friends.

Is having a high volume routine aimed at hypertrophy bad for somebody new to weight training?

I have read some comments suggesting that all beginners should use a 5x5 routine to start. I have been doing 4x12. Is it true that using higher reps like this may not make me as big as 5x5? I hear people say you get more testosterone if you do more explosive low rep workouts that are aimed at strength? I am not sure what to believe.

I like the progress I have been making so far but I want to make sure I am not on the wrong track as gaining size and bodybuilding has always been my goal from the start (not strength training). Thanks.

What actually are good bodybuilding genetics?

I keep hearing people saying that the likes of Jeff Seid, Zyzz and Jon Skywalker have ‘insane god-like genetics’ which allowed them to become so aesthetic when juicing, surely these guys are examples of dudes with relatively average-poor genetics, but managed to look good through AAS anyway?

Just look at their before pictures, they were all just skinny dudes, how is that insane genetics? They clearly just did a lot right with their nutrition, training and of course AAS to achieve their physiques, surely most people can achieve the body these guys did with their levels of AAS, nutrition and training?

Is there anything special about their genetics?

Alternative upper body workouts

I used to workout 4-6 days a week but 2 years ago my wrists got messed up due to a car accident. I've had surgery on one and will probably have the other one operated on eventually. My doctor told me that some workouts are safe for me to do as long as it doesn't involve my wrists bending much or using a severe amount of grip strength. So because of this I'm having trouble finding a way to do a full upper body routine. Does anyone have some suggestions I could do beside just bench press?

Phoenix Bodybuilding Gyms?

I may soon be looking for job opportunities in the Phoenix area, as my current city is just getting to be way too expensive and I'd love to get away from the cold winters. Can anyone recommend good bodybuilding gyms in the metro area? I'm very much a fan of the true "gyms" with loud music, heavy free weights and good machines vs. "fitness centers". I've been training at an awesome gym frequented by IFBB pros and would love to find something similar.

Powerlifting to Bodybuilding due to injury

I'm looking to switch to bodybuilding from powerlifting due to back injury (bulging disk) that's preventing me from squatting and deadlifting. I can maybe squat a plate, a plate and half at max. Deadlift is out of the question. Looking for some help/suggestions on programs.

Here are some relevant things > i consider myself a novice lifter, been in the gym about a year, a year and half. I have suffered from fuckarounditis in the past but I have been on nSun program for last 4 month or so (SBD - 280/185/300). I can afford to be in the gym 7 days a week, many hours if needed. I eat healthy, with 50% of my diet being protein. I sleep okay, averages about 6~7. I definitely have been pushing myself too hard which lead to my injury. My gyms pretty shit and doesn't have a lot of machines. I have access to squat racks, cable machines, pullup/dips machine. dumbells. Bodybuilding machines are scarce.

The body parts I'm really looking to grow but find challenging are;

Triceps

- On my bench days, i bench (powerlifting style, working upto topset and back down), tri cable extensions, and skullcrushers but dont feel much on the triceps the next day. For the tri-extension and skullcrusher I aim for 12~15 rep range, 5~ 7 sets. still dont feel much. What am i doing wrong here.

- i never liked them to begin with, but due to the injury now i can't do anything that flexes my spine. Any suggestions on this?

Quads

- my quad size has gone down good half an inch since i stopped squatting a month ago. My gym does not have leg extension machine either so that doesnt help. currently doing some super light squats and dumbell bulgarian split squats but doenst feel like enough.

Glutes/hammys

- Same problem. Due to not deadlifting my glutes and hammys have gotten smaller visibly. We have a leg curl machine but the damn thing is broken.

Thank you for reading my post. All and any insight from you guys are much appreciated.

Edit: Spelling

The Three-Month Body Transformation Workout Plan

Pollyana FMS / Getty

Ready to jumpstart your own body transformation? Try this sample weight lifting plan for women workout from Shannon Dey, M.S., founder and CEO of Bombshell Fitness, a competitive training and coaching group for female athletes.

If this expert-grade routine seems intense, that’s because it is. But if you want to sculpt, tone, and firm your entire body—including those pesky trouble spots—this is your ultimate blueprint. Designed for an intermediate athlete, the following plan is inspired by the programs Dey creates for her Figure and Bikini competition clients.

Dey points out that it will take at least three weeks of consistent nutrition and training to get increase the metabolism enough to see results, so it’s very important to practice patience, be consistent, and stay positive.

This week-by-week training plan switches up the workouts you perform to prevent plateauing and help challenge your body to its maximum potential.

MONTH 1

Week 1: Workout 1 + Daily Cardio

Week 2: Workout 2 + Daily Cardio

Week 3: Workout 3 + Daily Cardio

Week 4: Workout 1 + Daily Cardio

MONTH 2

Week 5: Workout 2 + Daily Cardio

Week 6: Workout 3 + Daily Cardio

Week 7: Workout 3 + Daily Cardio

Week 8: Workout 1 + Daily Cardio

MONTH 3

Week 9: Workout 2 + Daily Cardio

Week 10: Workout 3 + Daily Cardio

Week 11: Workout 2 + Daily Cardio

Week 12: Workout 1 + Daily Cardio

As with most fitness plans, prescriptions may need to be tailored to your specific needs and goals. Always consult a physician before beginning any fitness or weight loss program.

CARDIO

These cardio workouts are intended to be tough. If you can't complete your entire cardio session in the beginning, don't get discouraged. Push yourself a bit further each day until you can do the entire session at the pace listed. It may take a few weeks of building endurance to be able to complete the entire session. You know you are working at the right level if you are not able to talk on the phone, or read a book, Dey says.

Monday/Wednesday/Friday Mornings

Warm-up: 5-minute treadmill walk

Treadmill Intervals: Complete the rotation below seven times for a total of 35 minutes. If the speed becomes too easy, increase the rate.

1 minute: Incline 5, speed 4.5
2 minute: Incline 5, speed 5.0
3 minutes: Incline 1, speed 5.5

Track Sprints: Complete six 50-yard sprints with 30-second jogs in between

Tuesday/Thursday Mornings

Warm-up: 5-minute stationary bike or treadmill walk

Bike Intervals: Complete the rotation below six times for a total of 45-50 minutes.

1 minute: Level 5, rpm of 110
1 minute: Level 7, rpm of 90
1 minute: Level 9, rpm of 80
2 minutes: Level 11, rpm of 70
15 wide high jumps
15 pop squats
15 switch lunges on each leg
20 high knee runs on each leg

WEIGHT TRAINING

Only do one weight training session per day. Dey recommends breaking up the weight training and cardio sessions for morning and night. However, if you must do your both sessions at the same time, complete the weight training first. All the moves listed here are designed to be performed quickly, but with good form.

Each weight training session should take no more than 45 minutes to an hour.

Most of these sessions include supersets, which means the exercises and their repetitions listed should be performed back-to-back, without rest.

As an example, the following superset of 2 x 15 leg extensions and 2 x 15 leg curls would be performed by completing 15 leg extensions and 15 legs curls back to back, resting, and then performing 15 of both exercises again for a total of two repetitions or “reps.”

Why do some powerlifters hate bodybuilders?

So I am a female that lifts strictly for aesthetic reasons. I want to have a big butt and abs and thick quads. I know a female power lifter who hates me for this reason. At least that is why she says she hates me. I am trying to understand why this is, I feel like it is counter productive to have this attitude towards community. Or maybe she just doesn't like me. Thoughts?
