I'm right on mark so if I come in right with the prep I should put some fear into the other competitors...hope all is well on your side...fyi, after this show I want to get up to 280lbs, let's see what happens....
yes, sir...it was easy for me though because I ate the same thing every meal and I MEAN the same thing every meal...4 slices of wheat bread, 5oz of chicken, 5.33oz of 93/7 ground beef patty, 2 slices of cheese, and a scoop of whey protein....7 times a day with 1 carb/pro shake after workout
so this would be the breakdown:
I was 240lbs offseason then 207lbs onstage in june 06 2009
I am 263lbs offseason then 225lbs on stage in november 2009
I will be 270 offseason then 232lbs onstage in june 2010...
I think I could be 230lbs but I'll strip 5lbs of muscle if I have to, to stay in the top of my weight class which ends at 225 1/4lbs...
probably bigger...january, 09 I got to 240lbs which was my heaviest at the time, this time around I got to 260lbs and looked ten times better then 240...I'll be aiming for 270 after my november show...and should be onstage for a june 2010 show at around 232...
yeah, I actually hit 263lbs...man, the work it requires to breathe at that weight is ridiculous...i started cutting today, so happy because i feel like death with all this weight...you want to know whats crazy? i count my protein intake, i calculated that i was putting in 740grams/day...was in the bathroom a lot...haha
trust me it's wasn't a breeze...I've wanted to throw up a few times doing it and kept pushing...if you have any questions just send me a message on how I did it...
I hear ya, my weight is creeping back up agin, as long as I can keep the fat low%. I would like to be a solid 245 or 250 in the future, we can all dream a bit...lol...
No comps for me...I lift for sanity and pleasure, and to try to be the best that I can be. You on the hand are one of the BIGS on here. You should definately consider cutting and competing. you have a great physique bet you'd kick major ass!!
