Agreed, take one in the chin and keep moving. Mick looked great, and I am sure you did to. Mind you, his coach promoted the show you beat him in. Part of being a pro is more than just card, but a responsibility carry yourself in a professional manner.
Go get it bro, your physique is worthy of pro status. Just go make it official.

Mick looked amazing... great bber and a great guy. James came in to my place in NYC pretty watery on Thursday and through Friday- all in his hams and glutes... we eventually did some tricks to dry him up and fill him out more which worked. Dude is always dry from the front, its the rear that kills him. Mick was just tighter and fuller, and had better separation and more detail in the back/ side shots (especially quads & hams). James eventually filled out and looked great at night, but too little too late. All in all a great showing tho!
Hit it hard and dial in the diet next year dude. Good luck at the Cardinal!

Dial in the diet next year? Oh, he is dialed in now:
He was on point for his previous shows, but is better than ever before at this moment. Anyone will look watery if refeeding and sitting around for 9 hours in a car. But, that is not anything that could not be fixed by doing a little work. Cutting water and taking natural diuretics is not the answer and nor was it in his case.
And don't confuse dry with lean. Mick gets MEGA shredded and that's it. He doesn't cut his water and take natural diuretics to get them that way and neither did James in the above pictures. Continuing to add quality mass to his legs (as we have focused on since 2006) will give him that added detail. Heck, I think he added a pound of lean mass to his glutes just since August with our training haha.
----------------
BTW folks, James is competing in a very competitive lineup at the INBF Cardinal Classic lineup this weekend that awards a WNBF pro card to the overall winner. Several previous INBF and Natural NPC champs are slated to compete. Yo Yellock took it last year and Robert Peacock took it the year before and this year it's going to big James!!!

It's great to see all these top level Natties posting so much information...really helps. I have personally learned so much its making my prep that much better. Thanks.

Getting that dry look includes being super lean, but its also about putting the water in the right places by manipulating your food. You're right though, cutting out water is not a part of my regiment. You look great James. Good luck and keep us posted.

Just talked to James. He said that it is between him and Greg Bremec in his weight class, but that it is really close. There is some competition in each class that is going to be pushing for the overall and that pro card. James took a shot last night that I will post up when I get home. He is certainly at his best ever. Stay tuned!

Quick Update: James took 2nd to Greg Bremec. If I were to guess, Greg most likely went on to win the overall and the WNBF card.
It goes to show that achieving a WNBF card is not an easy task and the competition grows more fierce each year.

Congrats to James! I know he was of course gunning for the card but he has great structure and his legs look fantastic in that first shot! 2nd in two qualifiers is certainly nothing to sneeze at!

James,
You looked awesome at Naturalmania. You told me about this thread, but Wow! You made a lot of sacrifices along the way but I'm sure you would do it all over again. See you in 2010!

Thanks, I will be doing the INBF Natural Herculies in 2010. It was nice to meet you.
We will be doing our show INBF Natural Buckeye Classic in April. The site is naturalbuckeyeclassic.com
I will have that card in 2010 My diet and training is going to be off the charts.
I will be keeping another log on my day to day moves till show day. I may have not gotten the card this year but I'm that much closer to it.
I did make the INBF website page.
What is your next step ?
