i finished my first show in june and learned a TON from it, i'm curious who else on the board competes or plans on competing in the relatively near future
It sucks until you get down around 10-12% and you start seeing the definition come throughI may do it one day if I decide that dieting for 12 weeks ain't that bad.
friggin arcade. :FUfinger:Guys at my gym always ask me if I compete. I just might give myself a local trophy before my 40th bday... :head: Well at 5'11" I think I'd have to be a good 225 ripped to get anywhere.................
In the meantime, the arcade here will do.
5'8 176lbs middleweight .. although i fucked up carbed up a bit too soon and weighed in at 179 making me a shitty light heavyweight lolI plan on competing next fall (2006). Glenihan, how tall are you and what was your competition weight? Just curious, it looks like we have the same body type.
i can't wait to see beelze all oiled up with a deep tan in a posing suit with all those tattoos haha :lol:
It took me forever to get the mental strength to start cutting. It really hasnt been that much of a struggle - but then again its taken me quite a bit longer than 16 weeks to get where I am and Im by no means cut yet.I have thought about it quite a bit, but its only going to work probably whenever I get over this need for gaining as much strength as possible, I would just hate not being able to move as much weight as I used to. I know the diet part would suck, but I really dont think I would mind it too bad, for one I really dont enjoy eating, and even the diet I am eating now trying to bulk some is extremely tasteless and bland lol. I am definately considering it though, just need to bring my calves up a scoche When I decide to do it, it will be with Bobo for sure.
Glenihan how are the weight classes set up? For instance - if you come in at 205 does that put you in a 'heavyweight' class where you have to compete against a guy who is 240?definitely man .. to be perfectly honest you probably are a bit light .. but so was i .. who cares its a great experience and fun as hell .. after you dropped all your water i'm sure you would be under 198 and you'd be at the top of the light heavies .. perfect my man
so sack it up and quit being a little bitch
i'm not sure about bantam and light weights butGlenihan how are the weight classes set up? For instance - if you come in at 205 does that put you in a 'heavyweight' class where you have to compete against a guy who is 240?
Also, even as an amateur do you get time on stage to do a solo posing routine, and can you choose your own music?
bantam is up to 143(and change)i'm not sure about bantam and light weights but
middleweight 146lbs (i think) - 176.25
light heavies 176.5 - 198.25
heavies 198.5 - 225.25
super heavies 225.5 and up
i'm around 220 right now.thanks for clearing that up kyfra .. i never paid attention to anything less than the max for middleweights
what do you weigh during your offseason kyfra?
Right now: 5'10", 209 lbs. @ 6% bodyfat. I next bulking next Monday and hope to hit 230+ by January 1st.was waiting for you to chime in derek .. what are your stats now a days?
If that is you in your avatar, you could DEFINITELY compete and do well.I'd luv to compete someday, but I've been cursed with an offset sternum where one side on my ribcage is sunk in nearly an inch from the other side....hmmmmm...symmetry problems much? lol
I'll just cheer you guys on instead. :woohoo:
I'm 5'11-6'0ishSounds like a perfect plan, BOHICA. Similar to what I will probably do. Nice to be just at the limit of the heavies. How tall are you?
yes sir, I'll be doing the Teen class and middle weights at the East Coast on November 5thHey IrSerge thanks for the link and I will definitely be there at those shows but as a fan....one is in patterson correct? I am from J.C.
