Az Championships recap

HUTCH · Jul 9, 2006

They said it was the toughest middleweight class they have ever had in AZ!!!! I hit my conditioning perfect for this weekend after totally changing my carb load and water depletion...I placed third and I can't complain a bit after I saw the class I was questioning whether or not I would be in the top 5...I felt great onstage and hit all my poses strong...Rob was a very very close second and Scott got the first spot and the overall...This guy was big for a middle but was a lil smooth in the legs but he looked amazing for sure...It was a great show and I had a lot of fun....I have pics to post and a few videos that I will put links to but I am leaving for vacation in a few hours so i post them when I can, hopefully soon....

Now I plan on taking 2 years off and moving up to light heavy, (finally)...So time to eat and lift heavy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for all the support guys it really makes a difference.....

Congrats to you both. Cant wait to see the pics.

Hutch: Moving up to a light-heavy and putting on more muscle will fit you nicely. I'll be looking forward to watching you progress.

Leaving for a Bed & Breakfast, Sedona ahhhh....

Well... The outcome from last night didn't turn out the way that I'd have liked it to, but that was just the way things fell last night. The entire time I was at the show walking around the buzz was how close it was between Scott Turner and myself. Many would even comment on a striking resembelence between each other. As I said yesterday, Scott had full upper body and his abs came in really tight. He was yolked. I had many complents on my leg development(once again the Platz curse), my conditioning overall and symmetry. I do need to fill out a little bit more for that class. Not to make excuses, but I did have to take of 2 months from all upper body exercise in which I just started working it again 10 weeks ago. In knowing that I lost mainly because of upper body development. I don't feel so bad. I knew that it would be lagging for quite some time, but I know what gains that I've already made. Time. I'll continue to make the needed sacrafices in order to fill out my frame. So all in all, I had a blast yesterday. I looked better than the previous show. I am now going to take 3 days and go to a bed and breakfast in Sedona Az. Clear my head and body. Sedona is just one of the most beautiful places on this planet. I'd say top 5. Time to chill and eat my ass off! That massage is calling my name. If I feel driven when I come back then I'll start hammering it for the USA's. In which I'll come in as a welterweight.

WOW what a great class of Middles, Rob and Hutch did very well amongst a feild of 16 soild competitors.

It was a good show and Scott Turner looked great he deserved to beat Frank and win the overall.

Robs legs were shredded but Scott seemed to just barely outmuscle Rob for the middle wt win, Hutch looked awesome and beat out some solid dudes , Im just glad they made the right decisions and politics didnt take part this yr as Frank has many ties with judges and Miles who runs the show.

CONGRATS thanks for making it a very entertaining show.

I cant wait to get my trunx on again...... and make people sick

Where did that kid to the right of you place? If he was in the Top 10 then something was wrong! He really needs to fill out more, but if that's a rice cake in his hand his diet can't be that bad.
