That's way too big for physique anyways dude.
you have to come in about 185 to 195 tops depending on the show.
yeah those were my old goals. Now 190lbs on stage would rock! :headbang:

Yeah way to make a hypothetical scenario up. No one mentioned anything about his poor neglected family.
Maybe he's a cancer researcher and before he started bodybuilding he was just on the brink of a cure, now that he's a bodybuilder people are dying every day because he wants to get swole.
Or maybe he is actually captain america, and the US military wanted him to stop taking tren because then he killed everyone on the battlefield and not just the bad guys. But he refused because he loves the hard dense look and aggression in the gym. Now our troops are getting killed because they don't have captain america to help them.
That would be a real tragedy, if only he could put on his big boy pants...
TP4U, you answered your own question earlier in the thread when you said walking away is not an option. And i fully understand your reasoning behind not being able to walk away... I dont compete this is my hobby but if i was in your shoes and walked away the regret and what if would kill me also.
So you need to push forward. Im not blowing smoke up your ass, im just telling you what i think. I have seen your pictures and i feel like you have what it takes to get a pro card, so you better keep at it or you will regret it.
Maybe just skip a few shows, and just focus on training but not competing. Maybe all the diet and contest prep is taking a toll. Whats the worst that could happen if you skip a few shows and just train and eat? Maybe you will put on some nice mass and come in even bigger when you return to the stage?
I dont know i dont even compete so maybe im clueless. But you arent gonna quit, so i dont see how missing a few shows could hurt as long as you train.
Lol way to avoid my comment. How do we know he isn't hurting someone else if he leaves this planet too early. I can see it now on his tombstone. .."died young but man was he vascular"

for the most part i am as healthy as the sport permits. Most who know me know i dont and cant take a lot. I drink or "party" 3-4x a yr tops. Iv had numerous long (6+mo) breaks since i started. And lastly as soon as im done competing im done being huge. I will get below 200 and stay there. Health isnt an issue.
working out, competiting, the eating, its all a hobby for me, i enjoy my hobby, it brings me joy and pleasure, so that in itself is motivation... happyness!!
I think that you sound like a guy who needs a break. OBJECTIVELY you know that if you took 3-4 months OFF from the gym, didn't touch a weight....it would in no way hurt your long term potential. Giving yourself that time to miss it will only fire your workouts to a new level.
I would reduce your lifts to just primary moves but still walk out of that gym pounded to shit. Look hard at you anti--es and any reason for the loss of drive. Your knocking at the door Phil. Just man up and get the job done! Remember, every one of the guys that beat you last year go through the same thing man. You can beat them in the gym before you get on stage.

It's called freedom bud. He's not hurting anyone other than himself, and it makes him happy. How is it sad that he's going to die doing what he loves?
Damn my secret is out....
For real though this made me laugh.
I will admit i dont have much to do other than bodybuilding and work. Not close w any family except my brother (who graduates college this year so il be seeing him more) and the 3 friends i have who are like family are all in serious relationships and spend a lot of their time w their gf. My problem may be that this is ALL i do.... even when i hang out with my good friends we lift or go eat.....
