Layne Norton Reloaded: Back on my feet, like a freight train I'm coming!

[str8flexed]

thanks guys, I am honestly embarrassed of the prejudging pictures because I look closer to what I was when I was an amatuer! But I wanted to show you I wasn't just talking BS and there really was quite a bit of difference and the head judge said it was just 2 completely different bodybuilders. I didn't really do that much different from the first show to the Cape Cod pro which is why it was so confusing, but it just goes to show that your body can respond differently and you can't stick rigidly to a game plan and assume your body will respond the same way, you have to pay attention. I definitely did that for the Yorton and it made a huge difference

I just wanted to say thank you for posting the prejudging pics. It is easy to post pics when we think we look great. This really shows what a difference you can make in such a small period of time. It is a constant learning process but you really dialled it in and look fantastic in the night photos. Kudos for sharing!

huge diff pj to night layne, and yeah just high-lites the importance of being flexible with your peaking plan and having a good eye for flat vs full, looks like you did a great job on that front for the yorton, did you adjust more on how you looked?

[str8flexed]

Exactly I just kept eating and kept a close eye on my condition and if it held I just ate more

no problem, like I said, I think a lot of people thought I was making excuses, I really wasn't, in the end it was still my fault for not paying attention to my body not responding the same way, but I wanted to show that I wasn't full of it, even though I was terrified to post those prejudging pics because I just looked awful

Layne, what's your goal for the NGA Universe? Top 5 in your class?

[str8flexed]

hard to know because I really have no idea who will be there. It's definitely the toughest show on the NGA circuit. I'd really like to place top 3, but ultimately my goal is just to come in my best combo of conditioning and fullness and whatever happens happens

so far this year, what do you think was your best package that you brought to the stage?

[str8flexed]

either the yorton or kansas city

[StuchWSU]

Layne do you think that doing 4 shows so close together like this is difficult for you or any other natural BB in terms of being able to hold that combo of conditioining, size and fullness? Do you think it hurts your placings in the later shows? (although you have admitted your later shows Yorton cup especially have a greater level of competition)

[str8flexed]

i think it gets tougher to hold but I don't think that's why i placed lower in the last 2 shows. It's just I came in way too flat at one show and at my last 2 shows the level of competition was higher

[mikez]

i apologize if this has been answered already, but how many weeks total will you have dieted for? including after your last photoshoot.

[str8flexed]

well it's a guest posing not a photoshoot but I gotcha.

33 weeks total I believe. Started april 3rd

How has your energy been throughout the day since KC?

[str8flexed]

[My_Legacy]

I take it your vid series for MD "In the Trenches" just fell through? Or what happened with that? Have they been in contact lately?

[str8flexed]

apparantly the video was misplaced and was never found

[patroclus32]

that is bull****, an in the trenches with you would have been awesome to watch, i don't understand how such a big company like md can lose a video

[str8flexed]

People make mistakes man. It happens. Sucks but it is what it is

[NoBeer]

Enjoyed that interview.

Excited about your next video, and also at the possibility of restocking your current one!

[str8flexed]
