Very well could be bro, haven't decided yet. I'm hitting the SOA in 4 weeks. I'll prob volunteer at the NS, if not at least attend or compete. Good to see your stepping on stage though! If you ever need any help let me know!

I'm training for this show, as well. It'll be my second contest. Helped a friend with his debut in the 2010 Never Surrender. Ken Arsenault is a nice guy and great promoter. He's really focused on the quality of the competition and the efforts of the competitors.

Good luck and see you on stage!

Awesome man sounds great. Looks like I'll be sharing the stage with you since we are both 6ft+ guys. Let's do it man. Looking big.

That's great! It'll be an honor to take the stage with you and pose it out! Think you've got me beat on arms and your waist looks narrow.

Where do you train?

Right on man. I doubt I'll make that though. I'm going to hit a few NPC/IFBB shows coming up soon. I've actualy never even been to a natural show. I want to check one out before Never Surrender. It only makes sense since I'll be competing in one haha.

Good idea to check out a show! Talk to some of the competitors and some of the judges if you get a chance. Real opportunity to learn before you take the stage.

Which NPC/IFBB shows do you have in mind?

Thanks, I'll have to see if I can attend any of these, as well. I might try to do a second show after the Never Surrender, if there's one within the timeframe.

Are you working with a trainer for your contest prep? If so, who? I've been lucky to work with a pro who move here from Boston!

Yea I am leaving the door open to a second show within a month or so after the NS as well. Just will depend on how I feel and if I feel confident after my first show. It would be nice to put 2 shows under my belt then go back into hibernation for a year or two.

I am working with IFBB pro Jose Raymond on my prep. I really couldn't ask for a better prep coach so I am lucky. You should be all set as well with your prep working with a pro as well. Good luck man and I will see you in couple of months.

This show is in Amherst and given the names of some of the competitors already signed up with me for their spray tanning, this is going to be one heck of a line up!

I would love to, but you will just have to wait or enter the show yourself! Better yet, maybe Ken Arsenault, your Promoter is willing to share:>))

Won't share specific names of the amateurs, but I can tell you with 2 weeks left we already have 25 men's open division competitors. I know some of the names and it will be extremely competitive. IFPA Pro card to the overall winner!!!

Just got your online registration... good luck!!!

Anyone else wants to sign up online... www.ocbbaystatenatural.com
