4.5 Weeks Out

tri-terror · Mar 17, 2012

Q convinced me to put some pic up I got taken earlier in the week. We're both four weeks out now from the same show, luckily he's a super, and I'll be a heavy!
I'm a little behind, but I've got a plan of attack and should be respectable come show time.

You shouldn't be so worried about posting... you look great. I wish you all the best. Your alittle behind but you still have time so come show day I bet you look phenomenal. I hope you do great and enjoy yourself on the day.

For my first contest I did three hours of cardio for the last month, so you can always step it up as you go. I actually think you will end up being a light heavy, but then again, you might be able to grow into the show. You have a lot of muscle, it's just a matter of showing it at this point. YOU CAN DO IT!

can i ask why the photos you post are always done so professionally?

GerryT · Mar 17, 2012

Not bad t all. Serious potential. Think you will surprise yourself at show. Keep at it and good luck.

My buddy is a photographer, so he hooked me up.

Thanks for the kind words guys. I'm going to do a big push here at the end and bring it come show day as best I can.

I weighed 218 this AM so I'd have to lose 5lbs a week to make LH. I think ill probably weigh in around 205, and hopefully fillout/Carb up to 210 or something. Just guessing.

218 right now....I think maybe you should try to shoot for the LH bro...I think you would be better off being on the bigger end of the LH then the smaller end of the HW. You are alittle behind ..but nothing to worry about. Are you working with anyone on your posing? Its so hard to try to tell ppl online little tips that you think will help them with posing but I def think your lat spread could be tweeked alittle to make you look better.

Go give it to them brother :headbang: Best of luck!!!

You look good bro. Slightly behind IMO for 4 weeks out, but thats more then enough time to pull out little tricks! Best of luck bro, keep it up and keep us updated

tri-terror · Mar 17, 2012

There's a trainer at the gym that I'm going to work with tomorrow in posing.
I'm actually trying to free up time to go work with Queefer also.

i think youre more than slightly behind, and never put a number on anything.

at 218.....you SHOULD NOT be a heavyweight

your going to sell yourself short if you do the show
and your NOT ready and 100%

just sayin, gotta keep it real with you

Some times the truth hurts. Good advice Tenny.

I think your a big guy with alot to bring to the stage. But if you don't bring "all" of it, you sell yourself short and never find out how you really stacked up. I would regroup and hit a show when ready. Good luck!

Well I'm glad people are keeping it real and not blowing smoke up my ass. I will say though that I do not have number picked out or anything. I'm really just estimating where I would end up.

Also, believe it or not I've tightend up a lot in the last four days. I think I can be ready for this show so I'm going to push for it. If it doesn't happen it doesn't happen, but I have to try. I'm not just going to abandon my prep. There is also a show two weeks later I may do.

GerryT · Mar 18, 2012

I would go for the second show. Would probably look even better two weeks later. Go day to day and see what happens. No harm doing both if you are able.

JonnyO · Mar 18, 2012

I agree with the others, 4.5 weeks out your looking to be way behind. You never want to be in the position of HAVING to lose more than 5lbs a week to make a weight class as at that stage your going to lose muscle for sure.

I wish you the best of luck and hopefully you can do another show thats a bit later than this one.

Queefer · Mar 22, 2012

Queefer,
I just want to say I appreciate everything you've done for me. It may not seem like a lot, but little words and help here and there have done a lot for me. Not to mention that I know I can't show up looking like complete ass when at least one bro from PM is going to be competing! Oh AND that dude won the supers last year...
