Thanks so much guys! It feels so good to set a goal and accomplish it.

My fiancé and I are actually kicking around the idea of a double prep log. He's prepping for USAs to do bodybuilding, and I'm...

Here we go! First couple are gettingn a little practice in the night before the show.

Thanks!

Quick update with pics to follow later! I got second in women's physique. They condensed it all into one height class.

I also got third in figure. It was the largest national...

Today is the last day before the show! My fiancé applied my base coat of tanner last night and it looks great.

We got our DEXA scan yesterday too. I can't believe it but I'm down to 8.09%! I'll...

Sickness is almost gone. I feel much better today. Still a little head cold crap, but not being killed by fatigue. Took another day off yesterday. Headed in to do a chest/back pump, and I'll...

So I've picked up some sort of bug. The I had some nyquil and some dayquil. Then I realized I'd ingested almost 80g extra of carbs! Of course, I'm furious. I took yesterday completely off to try...

Holy cow! Just under two weeks out now! Noticeable changes are really happening every few days. I've only got a week of work remaining before we start manipulating how I look. I'm finally...

I agree with megdaid 100%. Also take into account that you're pushing 50, so you're looking at lower hormone levels than a woman in her mid 20s. This means lean tissue production will be on the...

If I'm doing leg/calf work I wear basketball shoes (high tops) or chucks. Anything with a heavy duty sole.

Short answer: if your diet is on point yes. Bodyweight training is sufficient to achieve a respectable level of leanness, given that your training protocol is sufficient and demands adaptation from...

If you want a real critique we need to see some actual poses. Are you doing MP or BB? You aren't 5% though. Again we can give you a better idea of how lean you are with better pics.

If you've never dieted for a show don't pick something that is less than 12 weeks out. The extra time won't hurt you, it'll only make you better and more prepared. Good luck.

Don't pay too much attention to your weight. You need to be absolutely ripped. If you get down to that point and you feel that you should have more muscle then slowly add calories back in and put...

I don't think you should use the term bulk. You just need to track what you're eating, and get on a nutrition plan that incorporates healthy whole foods and allows you to grow. Work on building a...

This is why it's good to have a good reliable honest third person perspective. You may not look as good though because you may be in an in between stage where you are flat and burning away fat. ...

Thanks so much guys! I appreciate the support! Once I hit a few more posts I'll be ableto throw up pictures easier, and they'll populate without having to click a link. Not a big deal to some, but...

Just so you guys are aware, all of these pictures are taken first thing in the morning when I wake up. I'm depleted, and I have no pump. Which is exactly the same as all of my posing practices. It...

Well here we are, a little over two weeks left. I've been putting in what little extra time I have available to practice my posing routines. My diet continues to be refined and restricted to get...

Having a cardio machine at home has been a huge time saver for me! How come you're doing so many shows this season? Any reason? Just curious.

Alright I am now down to a little over three weeks out! My diet has changed slightly. A little lower low days, a little higher high days, and I'm not 4 low and 1 high. Changes are happening quite...
