Introduction

Raw muscularity is the exact training, diet and nutrition program that Steve Davis followed from June of 1980 through December of 1980, to achieve what many in the bodybuilding world considered the absolute maximum in muscularity and maximum in muscle size, simultaneously.

So the purpose then of this book is to give you a personalized glimpse and analysis of exactly the methods that he used, the lessons he learned, the philosophies he has come to espouse and exactly how these factors can be used by you readers, both men and women, to achieve the absolute maximum in hard muscularity and still (this is the key factor) maintain the huge mass of muscle that only heavy deliberate training can cause.

In addition to discussing with you training, diet, and nutrition, he is also going into a detailed analysis and explanation of the proper way to use a daily training diary or record, which will contain not only body weight notations, training weights (per reps and sets) but also your reactions to various stimuli. For example, let’s say you have been on a strict calorie regime of 1500 calories per day for 10 days and on the 11th day you decided to eat a tremendous amount of carbohydrates. Well, on the 12th day, did you look better or worse than you did before you ate carbohydrates?

And of course, no matter what your reaction, this is a notation that you must make in your daily training record on the 12th day. This is a very, very positive means for you to obtain maximum muscle size then with minimum body fat. So you must make these notations. These daily training records can be totally invaluable to you, especially at a later date, when you again are going to achieve maximum rawhide style muscularity. All you have to do is take a glance back at your old training diary to see exactly what you were eating per day, exactly what weights, sets, and reps that you used in your training and how your body weight varied and your reactions to different vitamin stimuli, or as in the example cited above, what happened after your carbohydrate overload.

Also, he is going to share with you some of the basic questions that were most often asked at his seminars around the world. And of course these questions will relate totally to achieving raw muscularity.

Training

Steve Davis Speaks

The first topic in consideration in obtaining raw muscularity, is training.

Training, however, should not be considered as primarily the most important of the elements of raw muscularity, but as simply one of the three of the major elements, with diet and nutrition being the other two. By nutrition I mean nutritional supplementation. I often said in my seminar talks that you could work out 8 hours a day, lift tremendously heavy
