who competes/plans on competing within next year or so

[glenihan]

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

[Beelzebub]

define relatively near future. i'll probably be game in about 2 years. now, that i've got my diet down, the possibilities are endless.

[punta]

I may compete in the future.

Every year I tell myself that this is the year but I always feel like I don't have enough size to dominate. Plus I don't know how to find out about shows in my area....Hey Glen PM me bro as I know we are in similar areas....I am from Dirty Jersey!

I'm looking to comepte in the NPC NY Metropolitan Bodybuilding competition in MArch of 2006.

Going to start dieting down in late November (the day after Thanksgiving). Yes, that means I'll be dieting during Christmas. No I won't be eating dessert Christmas Day. Sounds harsh, I know, but it's my first competition, and I can't go into it half-assed.

I'm considering it in the next couple of years. I need to lose the fat first to assess where I'm at

[Iron Warrior]

I may do it one day if I decide that dieting for 12 weeks ain't that bad.

It sucks until you get down around 10-12% and you start seeing the definition come through

I did my first contest last year. Started prepping for one this year, but it just wasn't in the cards. Maybe next year.

I 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.

[Mr.Striation]

I have, do, and will, done for this year though, next one will probably be may or june 06.

[ss01]

Guys at my gym always ask me if I compete. I just might give myself a local trophy before my 40th bday... 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 ****ed up carbed up a bit too soon and weighed in at 179 making me a ****ty light heavyweight lol

i'm glad to see so many people aspiring to compete and actual competitors as well

honestly though for your first show i think you should diet for 16 weeks as opposed to 12 just to give yourself enough time

i can't wait to see beelze all oiled up with a deep tan in a posing suit with all those tattoos haha

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.
