I started competing a couple years ago and entered in the Mr. Natural MN for my first show. I took 4th in the novice tall and I was hooked! I did a tiny mini bulk and then hired Layne Norton to train me for a 3 show in a row. I placed 1st in novice tall at the Natural Badger Classic in WI! My next two shows (Elk River classic and Yorton Amateur Classic) I did not place in the top five. I took the judges feedback very seriously and have been bulking ever since. I've had some ups and downs with training, diet and injuries. This is my journey to the stage once again! My first show will be in about 22 weeks. I have a couple trips planned in the meantime that I'll need to behave on, but I'm not worried.
When I last competed I weighed in at 159
I am currently 212 after all the bulking the past year.
My first show will be May 19th in Minnesota! I will be planning on 3 to 5 more after that one, depending on travel arrangements.
My initial macros will be
Protein : 250
Carbs: 300 - 450(high carb days)
Fats: 90
I will be doing cardio 3 times a week for 20 minutes as LISS. I will not add HIIT until nessessary. My training will be a heavy pyramid style training of 4 sets of 10, 8, 6, 4 reps. I will run this for about 8 weeks along with my diet at which time I will be hiring Layne Norton to finish out my contest prep for show number 1.
And for yes, this journal will be FULL of contest prep food pr0nz like extreme low carb pizza and loads of different stir frys and seafood dishes!
Here are some photos of me today at 212, white as a ghost and ready to kill this prep. Just for some motivation I'll throw in a couple pics of my last show. Time to shredz!!!

Good luck on your show, I can't wait to see how much you have improved from before."We all have great inner power. The power is self-faith. There's really an attitude to winning. You have to see yourself winning before you win. And you have to be hungry. You have to conquer."
