When I was in Highschool, there was this one kid that everyone always talked about. To be a teenager, this guy had an amazing body. So when I decided to go to college, I thought to myself that I wanted to be that type of person, the type that people talk about.
Why I Love It:
I love the challenge of pushing myself beyond my limits in order to try to achieve something new, something better.
How I Stay Motivated:
I've been having a hard time staying motivated. I work long hours and sometimes all I want to do is go home. As of late, my sister has been doing an amazing job of changing her body, that is my new motivation AND I surf to BodySpace during my lunch break to see some of the pics and remind myself that I can achieve that, too.
BB Accomplishments:
I placed in the top 10% of all entries in the Muscle and Fitness Rock Hard Challenge in 2004. The coolest thing about it was that I got a hand written card thanking me for my participation...BOOYAH!

I am REALLY looking forward to the next six weeks! My abs are kinda out of shape, BUT I think that my diet is going to help me resolve a lot of those issues.

This protein works better for me in particular because it's easier for me to use it as a meal replacement. I don't like casein because it seems to get really frothy.
I did two types of diet: High carb day, then low carb day. Here's how it panned out:
Day 1: High Carb
Day 2: Low Carb
Day 3: Low Carb
Day 4: High Carb
Day 5: Restart from day 1
My HC days looked like this:
Meal 1 (when I first wake up)
2 scoops whey protein
THANKS FOR the heads up and NO this is not my site! i emailed that guy about 30 times with no response, about to get a lawyer for it, hes selling products on my body, its BS!!! thanks alot bro!
Whatsup Markito?! yeah I miss competin, its alot harder to diet and eat right when you know your in off season but I'm putting on alot of mass and strength! hbu man?
Hey man! Progress is coming along much better this 2nd week of my cut. The first week was a bit disappointing, but this past week has been great. I am starting week 3 of my 4 week cutting routine. I'll keep you posted. I plan to have progress pics up at the end of it. Although i did break my camera last weekend at the belmont stakes, so i'll have to get a new one. hows your training going?
haha i actually read the first msg as -coming along- not -alot- i beleive i read properly even when it's not because i don't watch much tv haha:)
i am doing great, thanks. very happy with my progress... no starvation, no deprivation, i eat well, train well. and staying happy:)
how are you ?:)
yeah i was on the crutches for a couple months. nothing but my ankle was damaged. so i am happy with myself for going back on track and i m an inspiration :) but what do you mean by -slim and never settle- you mean i should slim down? anywo, i wouldnt want to be too slender, i prefer being fit and with curves.
good luck on your endeavor
yeah i have not had time to look at it yet. i am gonna try to this week. Training is going well, diet has been slipping a bit, as i find my self busier and busier, but i am still working on eating better. how about on your end?
Well hopefully a lot leaner than my pic... I was at about 7% there (3 weeks out) and am taking an extra 4 more weeks with my diet this time around. So instead of 10 weeks of dieting i am going 14. I'm really hoping to do a little better this year but its a tough comp. Good luck with the bulking man!
Right now I've got my eye set on the WNBF Mid-America Pro-Am. After that i may want to take some time off to build up but not sure I'll see when the day comes. So are you competing in it this year?
looking great in your comp pics! what weight class did you end up competing in? also can you send your diet and routine leading up to the comp? whens the next one?
