North American Championships
Well we are 10 days out from one heck of a monster show. This one will feature some of the best the US, Canada and Mexico have to offer and is so big it lasts 4 days. Masters 40 and over Classic Physique Class C will be my challenge and I plan on being dialed in and ready. I fly out on the 30th and weigh in that evening then the show is on the 31st. I'm going to get as good as I can get and go throw it down best I can and see what happens.

Ketosis and sodium load and carb load. No pics now with all the salt I'm smoothing over.

I'm off the oils and onto winny and var so I'm backing down and doing a bit more volume. Don't want to push and get an injury at this point in the game. The hard work has been done now it's time to cruise across the finish line.

First cardio session done in the extreme heat and holy hell I'm tired. 5 days out and feeling like I got hit by a truck but we keep on digging. More food then off to the gym for some chest and back action.

Thanks for the motivation E I'm staying the course brother. I see the light at the end of the tunnel and I know I'm doing everything I can day in and out. Going to stay relaxed and keep the anxiety away and make what I want to happen become a reality.

Well here we go I've done my first cardio session and my last workout now one more cardio session to go. I fly out in the morning headed for Pittsburgh and check in tomorrow evening. Getting all my things together now for the trip. Really excited can't wait to hit that stage for pre judging. I will check in here through the day tomorrow and show day and evening to let everyone know what's going on. Try to get some pics of some hotties also for Leatherhead.

First challenge on Wednesday morning is to win my height class. If I pull that off I will go against probably 6 other height class winners for the Class C overall. Top 2 get their pro cards, it's go time baby.

There are some big ass pros here for sure. There a foot shorter than me but look like two times as wide lol. Practicing posing now getting the meat charged up for the morning and still drying out. Going to get a good nights rest and see how well I look in the morning.
