Hey guys and gals,

So I did my first show ever in April; the 25th to be exact. First a little background i play rugby, have played for the last 12 years, and over the years my boys from college started to compete and i always wondered what the big deal was, they'd lose madd weight and look all tired all the time. I got talked into the show 6 weeks out, i know standard is 12 weeks right to diet right? Anyway, that night when i got up to do my 1 min of posing... WOW what a rush! I figured i'd do the show for the hell of it and get it over with, now I cant wait to get back to the world so i can start training for a new show. I got bitten by the bug. I took 2nd in the heavy weight, judges told me if i came in dryer it would have made a world of difference.

I attached some pics from the show, id appreciate some feedback.

Wow... 2nd place on your first competition? That's awesome. Big Grats there, man. Looking real lean in those pics. Have any shots of the guy who won?

And I wear gloves when/if the callouses on my hands break open.. which they usually don't.

My callouses used to rip open and bleed after a few sets of dumbell shrugs. they havent lately for some reason..my hands still get roughed up but no blood in a while. Maybe they toughen up over time I couldnt be sure though.
