Just wondering, ive never competeted before but I have a disease which makes my muscles ripple, would that give me an advantage in a contest? Dont worry there arent any serious negative side effects lol
Now I cannot show you an example as I guess this website has a stupid rule were you can post links or images until you have posted over 50 threads, but if go on youtube and just search rippling muscle disease you can see some examples.
Also keep in mind the bigger the muscles the more they'll ripple

I think it's called neuromyotonia (AKA Isaac's Disease) and there are three types, acquired, heriditary, and paraneoplastic. There's a very concise synopsis at the Wiki site and also check out isaacsyndrome.proboards.com in case you want more info.

It should not affect your placing at all but I would let the contest promotor know and maybe he/she/they will inform the judges so they don't think you're doing some weird posing up there.
All competitors usually get to have some stuff read to the audience, you mght want to mention this there for the same reasons.
Not for sympathy purposes, but to let them know what your body is doing up there and why.

Wow...I have never seen that before! Does that affect your mobility/sensation, etc at all?

Sometimes I tend to cramp up abit but if I stretch its okay, I also find though during workouts it can help with my endurance because it can kind of massage the muscle lol

I went into this thread thinking it was a joke, but here is something I have never heard of before...very enlightening...
Lift as MUCH as you can, for as MANY reps as you can,
while in complete control of the exercise.
Thanks for sharing that. Def interesting!
