Should Bodybuilders Ice Their Testicles To Boost Testosterone? | Generation Iron Podcast

[Music] hello and welcome to this week's Generation Iron podcast your host me Victor Martinez farahi Vlad Udin and Edward Mahia let's start off with the question of the day so we got another week another great question of the of the day of the week two questions of the day the first question will be uh from Bryce Henderson 34 and that question is can icing the testicles be a stronger testosterone booster than peeds um that's a question obviously I can't answer icing to answer that question we have to answer the question wait wait wait a minute yes or no answer the question I I have a I have I opened the question I don't understand he asked him if I put the my balls in the eyes they get stronger not not the balls get stronger you get stronger oh you get stronger than Peds what do you what do you think you answer I wouldn't know the answer to that do you know is there is there some sort of like guidance regarding this I mean there somebody mentioned that this something that they recommend I don't know I mean listen to to answer that even better you know um what's his name Tucker from from uh his name is Bryce Henderson no Bryce but what's the guy's name from Fox that used to work there Tucker Tucker Carson Tucker Carlson I think his thing where freaking zapping it with a laser would do better infrared what it was it was infrared not yeah talker Carson was promoting freaking flashing your nuts with a really with infrared in order to have more testosterone that will probably be better than icing it but again I'm not endorsing either one you know just do the test man no one no one wants to put the balls in the ice man what what's wrong with you I don't know man I don't know if you have no kids or anything I don't know if you want to just just go um you know you know just you know come in a cup store it if you want to do that but um you know ice your balls man I don't know I don't know you know is a co- plung it um remember they shrink you know Co plunge is something else Co plun is all I mean it is ice though he's talking about ice it's not just the ball I know no it's everywhere might as well just Co plunge I said just get everything in there you know Co plunge is more after a while you know you're icing it I mean just going to go inside you you know what's the guy's name Bryce Henderson Henderson you get a bucket of protein and uh not a bucket of balls what's the next question of the day that was you're this week's winner Bryce Henderson 34 uh the next question comes to uh us for Vic and that is from Bill toas and Victor from your unknown cousin uh why is Nick Walker so why is Nick Walker so overrated how and why are his legs not matching his upper body yet dudes like Andrew jackon with one tiny flaw hamstrings gets punished by judges but they reward dudes with multiple floors for being uh simply freaky I don't know I guess you don't like uh Nick Walker Nick Walker I mean but it's it's one of those things that has to do with uh maybe popularity that's it ni's legs match his body is H um sometimes it can go a little off and I think with his torso being a little long you can kind of you can see it a lot of times when he you're on you know on the audience on the stage and some pictures you know I think you should just change his posing but he does have big he fix it he fix it I mean I I see the new posing especially for double biceps yeah so he used to be he used to be little vacuum bring your chest up so to bring uh his long tors yeah he needs to angle more so right now he bring a chest up and squeezing ABS he he he fixed his yeah yeah just fix the posing and uh I mean the one he does straight on that's probably the one he's talking about where he's you know his upper body is so Superior his legs aren't small he's got huge legs but when you see him and his upper body kind of gives you that effect of they do look smaller and uh he's just really angling you know his posing um but um as far as Andrew Jack and and Nick Walker you know it has to do with popularity just like anything else you know I mean are there other great players in every other sport that are not as you know well known and less popular of course and just much better but it has to do with you know your your following your following and people discussing you you're getting out there social media um is Andrew Jack as active as Nick Walker um maybe not you know and again Nick Walker is here so you'll see him more and Andrew Jack is all the way on the other side of the world you know so yeah he's that's the only thing I can say and uh as far as you know competing and all that you know I always think the best man win and uh you always going to have the people that like the freak and the people who like the you know the aesthetic IM balance of on the other side so you think it's a popularity thing yes yes it's popular Nick is you know I think I believe he's younger too right yeah he's younger in 20 yeah he's younger so you're always going to get a little different it's just not going to be it and uh you know I mean Andrew Jack you know language barrier Nick you know he connects more so you know it just has to do with with so many factors I can't really give you an individual answer but that's you know in the scope of it all that's the best I can do you know I really like I really like U him I can't wait to see yeah Nick Walker I can't I can't wait to see Nick Walker in uh in New York Pro it's going to be crazy coming up as a great is a great show show crazy show and we we it's in our backyard which is great but better you know but um it's always a great show in New York Pro um it's I mean buy your tickets now man cuz if they're not so out already I wouldn't be surprised yeah so I don't even know on sale but it's definitely a lot of people going to be left out I mean most people some people going to just stream it if they do have streaming I don't know yet but it's going to be a good show and uh I know people uh having seen an Olympian I I think Dexter did it after he's done the Olympian right yeah you a few other people so Nick is one of those guys that did the Olympia is going back to New York Pro and uh it's going to can we can we say New York Pro that the third show of the year of AR classic or Bas importance is most important yes yes it is New York Pro is the show that if you win it on Saturday you still remember two months later who won and you know very few shows you can say that once you win on Saturday Monday everybody's forgot and always the winner and always the winner has a good place in Mr Olympia yes yes I mean is that is the top five or top three no it's a strong lineup it's always a strong line up New York Pro U Arnolds always a strong lineup obviously Arnold Classic Ohio being more you know a stronger lineup than any other Arnold and uh I mean it was we were talking last podcast about Iron Man you know that was the first show of the year that lineup was stacked and usually most of those guys in the top five even top 10 were always at the Olympia yeah so the new Pros going to be stacked so what's the guy's name so second winner the winner is uh built to laugh unfound cousin yeah built to laugh you know I mean give uh Nick Walker a chance and enjoy the muscle meds you know Carnival pro team man you all right exactly so let's go right into since we're talking about the New York Pro I guess you know obviously that's Steve weinberger's Big Show Steve Weinberger is known as the head judge of the Olympia of the ifbb Olympia so you know that being said I mean he did come out and say that judging right has become very I mean people criticize judging a lot but 99% of the judging is in fact correct correct 99.9% is correct um what is your opinion of that today except 2007 for the except that was a 0.1% when it went wrong and what do you feel that the judging has gotten better this you know the last last couple years and what is your opinion on judging I mean look question get better yeah that's a good question you know what is your thoughts on that I'll answer question two yes it has gotten better yes yes and uh you know 2007 got better yes it's gotten better um and again it has to do a lot with the uh you know with the judges you know um just I guess they kind of brainstorm a little more together yeah and just again you know you got to remember the first three or one through five is cool and then the rest is kind of like always the toss up yeah so do you think anybody has ever gotten paid who under the table table like do you think any judges in the past have ever been paid under the table in your opinion not to say that you knew of anybody but have you think do you think that's gone on oh I mean third world countries yes I mean because third world countries always you know you know but I cannot say I have seen it I have witnessed it or paid I have noticed it or I haven't paid on myself but um it it's not that I heard of I don't know I don't think there's ever been an article on that or I mean you got remember people always came out and spoke negative about bodybuilding and those but I don't think one person's ever said you know what I got this placeing because I paid right so never heard that story yeah that story has not yet to come out so that's why I can actually say that but um I anything's possible thir the story this this the conspiracy theories that was circulating uh is that a big supplement company for example and they have a guy in Olympia and then they push him to win but the question is are they paying who are they paying in that situation are they paying like all the judges on the panel are they paying just one judge are they paying the Olympics believable maybe just like just paying for a sponsor well you got to remember right but who are they paying to to as a bribe you know what I mean like well also you got to remember it's basically the bodybuilders are the pawn in all this right the companies will be the on yeah the companies and everybody else are the big players so if somebody's getting paid it's not any of the bodybuilders you just hope to get what they deserve to get based on you know what company they represent and I remember one year muscle tech was always like top five yeah they're athletes yeah you know yeah athletes so but they good athlet on that behalf can I say no I mean it's possible but they had very good athletes though they signed the top top of the top you know what I'm saying but um you know they had the best athletes you know but um I I would know and uh it it could happen it's possible I'm skeptical because like who are they paying exactly that they are they buying every single judge in the panel you see what I'm saying I'm skeptical about I don't I don't think I don't think this is happen in a big show like Arnold or Mr Olympia it could be like on a smaller level maybe where they that's exactly what he said in a third country all of America maybe or a small show here in the United States but I want to I want to go back to the the the the word what you said about Steve wber Steve wber is I believe he's a he's the best judge in the world because because he's working long time on this industry as a Jud in and he's not just judging The Athlete on stage he's working out on gym too his gym is one of the oldest gym in in New York Powerhouse and so many athlete from history of this sport visiting him ask him about uh what's the problem what's what's what you see he has a very special eyes to see a proportion the balance symmetry so judge the the first thing the judge need is the eyes has to be good eyes judge and Coach had need two these two person need need the eyes good eyes to see what's the problem to fix the problem what the athlete needs to add it what this body what's what they need to cut off to balance to become fixed so uh Steve is one of them has a very very good eye if any show still wurger was sitting down at H judge I believe it's 100% fair but are Judges I don't know no I agree a combination of I think it's eight judges on the panel eight judges eight or nine n yeah you don't n is the head judge and then so basically you got to take an average score of everybody right so what I'm saying if there was but if the question if Mr Olympia judging someone give the money for the judge no I don't think so but if athletes on the stage affected in judges as a face or personality yes it could be it could be Athlete on stage affected yes affected the judge as a favor athlete then you can see it happen then you can see but not like a transaction no no transaction yeah definitely not personal cuz uh uh Steve is one of the guys that you would go see and if you wanted good news you're not going to get it if if you look like crap he brutally honest right no he's very he's very two three I mean he he he tell lose your face yeah he doesn't care about feels no and if he didn't like you on a personal level you brought it on to the stage he gave it to you yeah you know it's one of those things it was like you know what if you did the work you you took the advice and you made the changes you got the the judging on on your favor I see the amateur athlete nobody no one doesn't know that that athlete goes to power Powerhouse Gym and Steve Powerhouse gy and ask him can you can you check my body and he go to the takes the time takes a time put a time talk to him give him advice work here bring here exactly the stage so this is brilliant and this SP we have actually so many people on this sport which is judges from different category or or coaches he cannot talk to them they act and walk like a god but Steve wber always humble and talk to athletes very well it was a period of time when Phil Heath had this run of seven Olympia wins right and during that period of time and even after he defeated Kai for three years in a row and it was like for another four years he still kept winning and I remember the fans were like so upset why does he keep winning or you guys just favored him and I remember I spoke to uh janion about that and he was like well he's just that good I mean the judges select him because he was so dominant for like that that run that he had so it was like well as a judge then because the fans don't want him to win anymore do you supposed to just then say okay well let make him lose you know you know the people's champ kind of you know yes exactly judge and the people's champ like let's throw you guys a bone you know exactly yeah but um it's you know when you're stepping on that stage and it's a fine line I mean at the end of the day now you have two guys that are great you know pose for pose now you you have to go with presentation now yeah then it's so you start chipping away at them you know what's it going to be are you going to tire out earlier you know you're going to be more aggressive so now that's how they start chipping at you yeah and always that person the Lost himself and the fan don't like it you know it's and and yeah and all the all the all the of this sport has to be understand any Athlete on stage they're working for win yeah no one no one goes St so over we here agree with Steve Weber Bas definely oh judging has evolved has evolved and again it has to I mean with time everything is always supposed to get better and and I believe they get better much better compared to 10 years ago compared to 15 years ago get much better I believe because it's too much show this his experience more show is more more show is more practicing you know the judge right now know what they want they know what they want and also believe I think when it first kind of judging you talking about 20 years ago 10 years ago you when you had I mean longer you had a strong lineup oh yeah when you have you know five guys that are stacked up and yeah it was like so much harder so either way people wind up being unhappy you know well yeah what's the next thing on the agenda well I mean the other big item that got a lot of attention this past week was uh Little Wayne's diet um everybody knows Little Wayne of course and his incredible physique um he do he does have Gorilla forearms though for his physique but he's he's like ripped nobody I don't know if he's on the uh you know the Canabis diet or is it it's because he's on a real legitimate diet but no all jokes aside it looks like 2013 he gave up meat um he became a vegetarian um and re up until recently he announced that he has put a lot of focus on his diet he never he never goes to the gym ever he know to go to the gym he was caught it was caught he was on camera with a with meal prep and prep he had a bunch of meal prep and I guess he started cooking the meals he's skateboard he's a border yeah he's a border so he he started cooking his meals P he hasn't tasted he hasn't tasted fast food he hasn't had McDonald's and he has a private Chef in like decades apparently I mean your little Wayne making that kind of income you don't really need to brag about all this bro you're supposed to be in shape when you're that loaded you're supposed to be now you're telling me you're poor and you're you know staying in shape you know I think it was bragging about not eating McDonald's listen man there three kinds of people I eat McDonald's you know poor because you have no choice you know um people that don't give a damn and that's it and kids that's it you know nobody else should be no those are the kind of people that just choose it but at the end of the day you have money you're always going to have again like you said he had a chef and all that you know if you're rich and you're out of shape is because you choose too it's not because you're in a situation you know you could have a trainer you could have dietician you can have your brought out to you your trainer can even pick you up take you to the gym I mean all sorts of thing you know so you know you can't feel bad for an out of shaped rich person you know it's like you know you just want to I think it's one of those old school things that you know being rich and successful was you know you're supposed to be fat but what about the fact that he says with the fact that he's able to maintain ripped physique without ever going to the gym do you find that impression with a little lean on the side whatever words but no but no gy no gy just take the lean so what do you what do you say so so you see people okay I mean here's a good question so people with money what do you think what do you think money buys I mean ter obviously time but in terms listen you have a dietician you have the best uh supplementation you have the coach you have supplementation from a dietitian I mean you name it you can have it you your own gym your own gym your private it's like you're supposed to be in sh supposed to look good it's like saying oh my God look at this you know J JLo's hair I'm like you're supposed to have good hair like one these things are like supposed to now if you don't you gave up somewhere the good example is Jeff if you look at the Jeff bezo previous picture he's he's on TT though so he's right now time he put the time and affort to his for himself but Elon Musk you know he getting bigger and bigger about the about the rich people talking it's supposed to it just goes along with everything else success you know taking care of yourself before it was like you could be sloppy and just be rich no no it's just it won't fly well I mean look I mean you just make the argument Donald Trump is still richy and he eats his McDonald's he loves McDonald's Warren Buffett eats McDonald's every day yeah but he's old school Rich you know old school ra the new Rich you know it's like an old money yeah old SCH you don't really care that much you know it's like you can hire somebody to work out for you and he hope to get in shape you know but you have to add he didn't drink he he's not drinking and he's not smoking that's true well he never smoke he doesn't Dr because of his brother's you know yeah problem so he didn't want to reflect he did say he never drank either though because his brother he was just like you know remember his brother's alcoholic his brother was supposed to be at the helm when the father died yeah and because you know of his you know falling short in deals he gave it to Trump but I think obviously he's his his body is healthy they can't the just McDonald you know I mean McDonald's is may he doesn't have time to really sit down and eat so is he eating every day mdal I don't know when he was in the white house he in MD every day yeah that's crazy that's don't we have uh don't they have chefs over there chef chef R yeah man that's Chef rough man show up there fing feed him with his forearms and [ __ ] I guess he shout out to Chef Rush Chef Rush is a good friend rush so yeah I mean look think I think Little Wayne obviously is inspiring everybody out there to be healthy and you know young again we a new world you know everything's just now choices so if you're you know you can buy you know horrible meat or you can buy the good meat at the end of the day it's just to feel good can you afford it even with inflation it's one of those things that people still spend money on is their health look during pandemic what took off Health yeah Health was the number one thing speaking of health and eating let's talk about this so this is a interesting topic right so there was a study made and I guess it's been people knew that for years but nobody I guess in the fitness industry we talked about it so everybody makes rice obviously meal prep is a huge in in Fitness industry right and the study says that Rice it's a rice mold warning it says never eat leftover cooked cooked rice specifically uh the mold forms in a cooked rice within 24 hours which could be deadly so not not the dry rice but when you cook the rice you got to eat it immediately and you cannot basically prep it for a week or you can die have you heard about anything like that before in your life um no and I'm still alive cuz you prepped a lot of you prepped a lot of rice right I prepped a lot of rice carried it for 24 48 Hours traveling to Europe and ate it and you know I mean little molding on still doing that that study is absolute bull you know what you're always going to get one person that they just have a weaker immune system they try something and you know and they just die and it becomes you know one of the damn unfortunate for this guy you know but um it it's happens sporadically it's not a big thing and again how was the right store you know was it 24 hours maybe was it in fridge was it in the fridge I mean was it even in a container you know was it left open yeah so it's a lot of factors to it so you can't say you know rice 24 hours you know if you have go to the store by Sushi it's like sushi rolls that's that's been cooked for Le come on man people buying you know fake freaking what is it crabsticks in surviving you know it's like a a lot of crappy stuff out there you know I mean I don't know I think the just one thing is Chang for the rice is test when you cook the fresh is fresh is more delicious always always B salt a little oil just the test is Chang I think you know but yeah so but now now they have those simple Rices you can just carry and just pop it in the microwave and you're good to Ben make it I think it's like a it's like a pouch right yeah yeah well I like the Korean ones man those are the best Koreans yeah yeah the Korean rice I don't like hard rice I've had uh pretty a bad white rice at one point not because it was there was mold in it but it was because may it was mold it was because it was just wasn't cooked right maybe was fake rice not good processed rice I believe the Persian has the best rice because we are cooking double time and we washing double time basar basar yeah we we basically put the we put the we cook the gist with water and then we wash it again we wash it we take it off the water and then we we put the in the pot again they cook again nice so basically we take it off all the carbs as much we can on the carbs yeah probably that's why there's less carbs right l l cars less carbs more less carbs so the same yeah with the same portion rice has less carbs you can actually eat more exactly and have you you basically basically you get same portion but less carbs yeah that's how you got to do it yeah all right well I guess we answer that question yeah eat the rice as much as you want basically yeah eat the rice and have your own cook if you want to look like Little Wing yeah we're expecting the New York Pro coming up obviously very soon and hopefully we'll have some predictions yeah got to have the prediction see what the lineup is I don't think we have Nick Walker wins spoiler alert I mean it's his short to lose his short to lose it's uh he already dominated the Olympia you think n can win Mr Olympia or no or you have to see him in the 100% he no this year this year this year I think 90% he come I mean you have the way how looked at the Arnold he's got a big run man cuz HTI HTI look was good yeah he looked good man I mean it was just um ridiculous man like people I mean we spoke Sam some but when he got there it was like nah like that's it it's it's hottie and then you know from a distance I I you know everybody looks a little soft to me so he looked hard he's too hard no matter how far I looked he's too hard they look everyone he look shredded yeah so he stood out I mean they look everyone soft because he's too hard yeah so unless anybody comes in with his muscle bellies at the same time the muscle bellies that's what it is and uh you know the balance he has is good enough and then you have Derek is Derek gonna come in better than last year yeah he needs to to get that again you know and um he's got a four years rest how do he you know competed two shows already I saw d uh last week I mean in picture with h rot posted I think he goes to fourth fifth Master Olympia back to back who D Derek yeah yeah so I I I believe all around man Dre can win five Mr Olympia back to back you know he's just right now he has the most muscle no he has the most muscle right now and he's got that huge did you see his size and the maturity is coming yes maturity is coming and that's going to be very hard to beat and you talking about muscle maturity the roundest and at the same time clean muscle clean
