Latest routine I saw demonstrated in my gym earlier this week. (Really I did!) The scene - Large younger black guy who plays college football, wearing a dark blue sweat shirt and sweat pants. Probably about 6' 300, should be about 250 - 50 extra is probably just holding water - ;) So he's...

Pace I was thinking the same thing as Randy - you are allready at an ~ 600/cal day deficit so even with out a lot of cardio you should be able to loose weight. I second the suggestion to keep protein high. Also if you have been doing steady pace cardio you may want to switch to a...

You won't like this either Most of you won't like this - but if you look at natural body building compared to A/S enhanced BBing most of these "we are going in the wrong direction" issues go away. There are no issues with synthol, bloating/distension, or any of the other weird and unnatural...

Poker If you really said "Oh sorry I thought that you were going to do a full rep that time" without laughing you must be a very good poker player! This was funny. Of course if the guy had gotten hurt we would have to lable you a "bad person". Big mean BBer would not help Homer Simpson Squat...

Up at 3? Welcome to MC Heckman. Up at 3 am to go work out? Bet you never have to wait for equipment! Must be cool to also have your wife involved and going with you even at o-dark-early in the morning! Bet you have awsome wheels after being a competitive cyclist.

Road Warrior I can relate. For the past 6 years I have been a 100,000 mile plus flyer so I have been on the road a lot. Fortunately I was almost always able to make my own travel arrangements and I would normally have a rental car. That way I could find a gym and have transportation. There...

Cardio...bad...Cardio good...? This past year I did cardio only for five minutes at the beginning of my workout as a warm-up. I know of several other competitive BBers who like myself, used to do a lot of cardio year round and during contest prep, but who also went to no cardio this past year...

Good observations Good job Eye candy! I think that you also offer some good suggestions and insights. It shows that you have your act together and have some class when you can step back and think through how you can be even better the next time and not look for excuses. You should feel good...

Duval Matt Duval has been at this for a long time and is certainly impressive, but I sure don't think that I would have selected him as the overall winner. Other class winners seemed to have better symetry and conditioning. Sometimes I think that the overall, and even the class winner...

I agree I agree - great for pushing the limits without a spotter. One thing that I ran into this year was a shoulder injury that came about when I used a slightly different machine at a gym while I was traveling. I did not realize it, but your body very much adapts to the arc and range of...

Priorities Pumpseeker - Yo bro - I think that you have your priorities in the wrong order - Should be: Seeking out good looking women, Seeking out good food, Fun in the sun Logging into MC when you are on a Carribean Cruise is way down the list! - lol

Welcome to MC Welcome to MC. Impressive record as a local competitor. Keep up the good work and feel free to share your experiences. It is always good to have new members who have been around the block a few times.

Pumpseeker I would suggest that you PM Skip and at least discuss with him how he might be able to help you out. Then you will have something to compare with. One thing to consider - everyone who is good at getting themselves ready for a contest is not necessarily going to be a good coach...

Would it be difficult to to add a few new fields to the profile screen? I was thnking about things like: How long have you been training? Have you ever competed? If so what class/divisions? Ever place? What are your current fitness/lifting/BBing goals? Some members would still leave them...

Go for it I don't remember from your past posts if you have competed before or not or if you have used the help of someone like Skip. I can say that having a coach does remove a lot of the stress factor. If you have never had a coach before I would suggest that you consider it. It can be a...

Good progress Looking good! Your shoulders are a strong point. WIsh I had em... Quads are also good for someone who is tall. You probably need to bring up your calfs some to be better balanced. You managed to add some size yet stay lean. Congrats! It can be done! Personally I think that...

R-ala R-ALA is an interesting "new" product that I had not heard about until recently. One source for it is from aor.ca For those who are wondering about this supplement here are a couple of info links. http://www.1fast400.com/product_info.php?products_id=457...

Thanks mid. Just wondering how her leaning out program was going.

T82 - You still out there? Have not seen you post for awhile. How's it going?

Great idea For any wierd stuff why don't you just use some generic person as an example, someone like... kidrok, ya, ya that's it... kidrok.... he'll try anything... ;) This will probably be a pretty big effort for Skip - l can see him combing through stacks of notes all written in crayon...
