    Default October 8th last show

    Well it's time to finish strong and shut er down for the reset before next season. Final show of the year for me will be NPC Southern Muscle in Baton Rouge, La on October 8th. Coming out of the North American I'm still lean and just trying not to put on too much weight so I can make weight for Classic. I might go all out at this one and do 4 events but not sure yet. Definitely 40 and over bodybuilding, 35 and over classic physique and I will probably do the Open Classic Physique and Open Bodybuilding also. Shit, I might even toss on my board shorts just for the hell of it because waving my hands and arms around gives me a 1.5" boner.

    Honestly, My hair grows in the perfect areas on my abs and chest and kinda accentuates the lines, and when i shave down i look less cut up , now im not talking about during show prep or precontest, as it makes a huge difference when your super shredded for a show but i mean in general when your in good shape and decide to shave , for me my little bit of hair grows just right to bring my lines out more, its weird, not sure if ya know what i mean or not lol

    anyhow, masher my man your looking dedicated!

    I know what you are saying it makes a shadow in the valleys making the cuts show better. Like how they airbrushed those guys for the 300 movie to make em look a lot more trim.

    Thanks, I'm excited this was the biggest show in the state last year but Nationals was right behind it so a lot of people came to prep for nationals. This year Nationals is 4 more weeks out I believe in Miami. Goals: Win the Classic Physique Class C in Masters and the Classic Physique Overall in Masters, Win Classic Physique Class C in the Open then win the classic physique Open Overall. Top 3 in Masters Bodybuilding.

    I weighed 251 pounds yesterday so I had to start my water dump a bit early. I lost 6 pounds last night and I'm only taking in enough water today to get pills and protein down. As long as I'm within a couple pounds of 240 I will be good. I feel so skinny dropping down this low I hope they give us at least 14 pounds for the 2017 year.

    Yeah bro, no comparison daddio!

    Wolfman jack could look great if he came in peeled, I wonder what happened, and man he looks so defeated in that picture lol, , so congrats to you big guy! You look dedicated, and you also look like you have your diet x timing down!

    Did you feel like you nailed the timing and was tight and ready at that point on the stage, or did you feel like you could have pumped up more or maybe was losing pump at that point, you look fabulous, im just asking, as for all i know you may have thought you were flat and that was without a pump or losing pump, so just asking my man!


    Looking forward to seeing the overall comparisons, as im sure those class winners have their shit together like you!

    Congrats man, thats some serious dedication to look peeled like that at that exact given moment!

    Did you feel like you nailed the timing and was tight and ready at that point on the stage, or did you feel like you could have pumped up more or maybe was losing pump at that point, you look fabulous, im just asking, as for all i know you may have thought you were flat and that was without a pump or losing pump, so just asking my man!


    Looking forward to seeing the overall comparisons, as im sure those class winners have their shit together like you!

    Congrats man, thats some serious dedication to look peeled like that at that exact given moment!
    I was a little deflated I'm actually looking better right now. But I had to start pulling water a day early because I was overweight which makes the timing waay more difficult when trying to load back up. I just went to lunch and had a big ribeye, garlic mashed potatoes and steamed spinach. When I walked back into the hotel everyone was like damn whatever you just ate did you right because you are fuller and look way bigger.

    I didn't pump up a whole lot in the back just did some poses to pump because I'm so dry. I could have pumped up more and I probably will for the night show.

    Masters Classic Physique 1st.

    Got hosed in the open and the crowd actually started booing when they called my name for second place. I think they didn't want me winning 3 events.

    I'm stoked I owned this show I probably could have finished second in super heavy open bodybuilding.

    Yeah, thats the shit that keeps you coming back for more! When you win a show or do super well and your the only one who knows you either couldnt pump / carbs hit late, or vice versa and know you have looked way better either before the show or right after then thats what makes you hungrier to really nail that shit next time!

    In all honesty , i have never felt like i came in on point, i mean you know when you look better than everyone else up there, but knowing you just didnt look as good as you know you can, makes me nuts! lol Anyhow thats why i asked, and congratz again daddio!
