Well, I will tell everyone the truth: I am done with gurus. I think it is too easy to become dependent on them, and then if they are not there when you need them the most, things can turn out very badly for you. This was my experience last year at the Olympia, and this weekend in New York I once again had problems with my trainer - now my former trainer.

In the days coming into the show, I was looking crazy. Diet was good, shape was good, everything. But by Saturday night, I was not full enough. If you are not full, your muscles lose their shape and hardness...you don't look so ripped, you lose striations - this is what happened to me. What this tells me is that I didn't eat enough during the carb-loading phase. Looking back now, I was always hungry during carb-loading; this should not happen. You should be eating so much that you don't want any more; but I was always hungry, and still my trainer told me not to eat more. This was a mistake.

After pre-judging, we saw I was a little flat, and my trainer told me to eat some rice and a banana. I said, "I don't have any more bananas." He said this was ok; maybe I should eat a burger. This is the one night we have been working so hard for, and he is not sure what advice to give me? I will be honest - I was very upset.

What I ended up doing is eating about 600 grams of dry cake between pre-judging and finals. I filled up a little bit, and looked much better for the finals. So, third place is ok for now. I know what happened, and I know what I have to do now. What's done is done; I can't change it. But from now on, I will do everything by myself. I have had enough of the gurus. I know what works; I won the German Championships, I won the World Championships, and I turned pro doing everything myself. So I will go back to what I've done in the past.

Honestly, I think I could have taken second place. But I am happy for Hide; I know him and he is a good guy, and he deserves his success. I also want to say congratulations to Roelly; to win a show in your first year is fantastic.

I would also like to thank BSN® for all their support. They've been unbelievable to me, and I really appreciate everything. Thank you guys very much.

Well, this week I am just going to train my legs a little bit. I will have five weeks off, and then I will begin my prep for the Olympia. I think it's a good amount of time in between; I will be ready. This weekend was not a bad start, but I am still determined to show everybody what I can do.

Patrick Tuor as a response to Dennis Wolf's statement on bsnonline.net :

I don't wanna fight, and I admitted that I made a mistake.
But the fact that Dennis tries to drag me through the mire and says that I didn't know what to do after the prejudging is not correct and is very hard on me !
But I won't say anything else …. that's better for everyone.
Well, there's one more thing to say.... for the people who think one has to pay much for a trainer.....
I payed everything myself !(flights... got no wage for months.... hotel....).
I lived with Dennis and they cooked for me. He had nothing more to pay for.
I just think it's sad that 99 % went right. and just because that one afternoon I'm presented as incapable.
That's all I wanted to say.

Patrick Tuor.

Dennis Wolf's response on that:

Dear Patrick,

Actually I didn't want to write something … but it's too much.
You apologize to the people here on the board . but what about me ????
You didn't apologize to me !
On sunday after the competition I thanked you and explained that everything went right except a few days before the competition. I also asked you why you weren't there for me on friday to make sure that my shape is ok.
You didn't have a explanation for that. I ask myself : Is that your way to prepare an athlete ?

To the second statement:

Martina introduced you to me in Katar and you wanted to prepare me for a show. You didn't want money for it. You said it is your dream to work with a professional. And if anything goes wrong you'd take the responsibility for it. These were your words !!!!
You've been at my place in vegas and my wife cooked for you ! Did you ever ask yourself for how much money you eated ??? Aside from all the other things that cost money !
According the hotel costs:
You only had to pay the costs for 2 nights in New York, 2 nights in Pittsburgh and 1 night in Utah.
But what about the week in Long Island??? I payed for it !

When my trainer is in the audience and shows me a „thumbs up“ to say that I look good but actually I look like shit ….. than I feel pranked !
Then you come to me and say „we need to eat something“ . and I ask „what should I eat? „. you say „120 grams of rice and a banana“ …... I ask myself – how should THAT make me fuller ?
Then I say that I don't have any bananas with me. Then you say „that's ok“.
My toenails curve up ! [LOL …. can you say that in English ?]
Then you ask me if I should eat a hamburger......!!!!!!!!
I almost went crazy after that !!!!!!!!!
After that conversation it was clear that this person I'm talking to has no clue after all !
Every good trainer would come back to with the athlet to the hotel to try to make the best of it.
But you stayed at the competition to watch the female bodybuilders !
At the evening I received a short message but I had to call you 3 times to finally have a conversation with you.
But the by far worst thing is that you didn't say thank you to my wife for all the cooking !
But you took all that for granted right ?


Dennis

Patricks response:

Hello Dennis,

well, everything you say sounds pretty good . But you explain everything the way you want it to be !!!
You payed for Long Island??? Yeah you did.... but you forget that I had to sleep on a couch in the kitchen while you had huge room with two king size beds !!!!
And I cooked for you the whole week !
And Pittsburgh …. when we arrived at night …. and you just booked a room for yourself ? And I had to drive all the way to the other side of the city !!!!
Oh escuse me ! You offered me to sleep on your floor.
Your wife cooked for me, yes. And I did say thank you every time. But we are talking about the woman who didn't even talk to me ! just like I'm a nobody ! And after the prejudging she even said that you shouldn't listen to me. And after that I really should come with you to the hotel ??
If you want.... we can discuss more. the people sure will like it !
I did everything I could ! But you are the big DENNIS WOLF and I'm just a small trainer.
I did apologize in public !!! But that's not good enough for you... you have to display me as incompetent.

Patrick

Dennis's response :


Ah, so you want to continue ! I have many more things to say !
In Pittsburgh they always book a room for a guestposer. I tried to get another room but it didn't work. So you didn't want to sleep on my floor. Is that my problem ?
And the couch on Long Island was not good enough for you ---- for free !?!!
Why didn't you just book a room ?
Because it would have cost 1000 $ ? And the 100 $ for buying bananas and ricecakes were also too much. I offered you to pay for it.... but you said no, it's ok.
My wife doesn't have to talk to you ! You were with us to do your job . not to be our friend !
And once again – where's the apology ??!?!?
You did not do what you could have. Otherwise you would have been with me on friday to check my shape !
I hope, since you are such a smart guy, that you don't continue to write anything about all that in public.
You've got my telephone number. You can call me to discuss all that and cry !
Over and out...

Hvor har du fundet deres beskeder henne, TheCzech?

Poliquin skrev:Wolf må dælme snart tag sig sammen og se ind af. Det er så pisse let at gi alle andre skylden for ens nederlag. I bund og grund handler det om ham selv og ikke alle andre! Manden har stillet op til utallige shows og burde efterhånden bare vide en lille smule om at carbe korrekt op. Derudover kan han for helved da selv ha styr på hvad han har med at mad og ikke brokke sig over andre ikke har købt bananer nok. Alle andre der stiller op køber altid rigeligt ind for netop ikke at mangle.

Kæft jeg synes han piver og skyder skylden på alle andre!

Med den logik, så burde folk vel ikke have brug for en coach så snart de har lidt erfaring?
Man har vel netop en coach for, at de har styr på alt op til konkurrencen, når man selv har diæthjerne mm.?

Men derfor kan vi godt blive enige om, at han piver lidt når han nu har været off et par gange på konkurrencedagen burde han nok lige være lidt mere kritisk

Btw. hold kæft Wolf's kone virker til at være under den tyske tøffel
