Hahaha!! DC is hilarious...
Question is: Do you want to spend your life getting big, or being big?
Bro, if you want to compete, I don't think you have a choice. Pretty much everyone said you need to bulk up further. Throw in some cardio, GH, T3 and be smart about it. Anyhow, you look very good.
This is a battle with your ego. Do you risk a few lbs of fat (that no-one notices) to be the best you can? Is it worth it? I think so.
Just DON'T let your ego limit your progress. Most things we want to achieve are about the End goal. Risk vs. Benefit. We risk health, time, shitloads of money and even frigging prison time. For the end result. If we're making all these sacrifices, risking all these things and not getting closer, as fast as possible, why are we doing it? So we can make these sacrifices endlessly? Fuck that! IMO, this applies to all goals. And this is where semi-successful people lose their shit...They are too in fear of losing what little they've built, too much to take measured risks.
Now...if you're "there" already and happy with things, great. Do as little as possible to maintain it within good range.
Whatever you do, just make a decision you'll be happy with in the END. The process sometimes sucks. Think of work...it sucks, but becoming wealthy (the end result) = great! Building a house sucks...having a house=great.
Assess the Risk: Being a little fatter for 9 months vs. Benefit: 20 keepable lbs of muscle for as long as you want to maintain it...no brainer. Good luck!!
