Very thick! Lat spread looks great with a wide back and low lat tie in.
What's your weight at?

Looking massive what are you weighing in at here Shelby?

 

[Shelby]

Thanks guys. I'm still just a munchkin... 228 this morning

Look great. How does this offseason compare with previous ones? Have you done something differently this year that you feel worked better for you than previous strategies?

I'm always experimenting a little bit here and there, but nothing radical.. the basics always remain pretty much the same. I think my biggest strength is consistency.

Shelby u look great. U brought offseason to a new level.

Big, thick and round but that's some serious bloat.
Holding water like a sponge. Amaizing how you transform to contest condition.

This is about as non-bloated as I get in the offseason

Not to sure on the bloat comment...Upon first seeing the video i was like thinking wow...looking thick and full!!!!
Quite deceptive as only seen recent pics in full on fleeces etc....Impressed Shelby!!!

 

[NOSUPERMODEL]

Very impressed. Looking great.

 

[BIGGMIKE295]

Ya, i dont think he looks bloated at all. Just a nice thick and full off season look.

If I compete this year it will probably be the Chicago show again in July.
I have a couple clients doing it, and it's only a few hours away.

Shelby, what would u say u did differently this offseason in order to retain your placing?

What package do u plan to bring on stage?

 

[NZRABBIT]

Frequency?

Weight training three times a week or EOD correct?

What brought you to this frequency vs your experiences in trying more Shelby?

Seems to be a tendency towards 'more is better' amongst the 'trendsetters' nowadays?!

My hometown, It would be great to attend and meet you in person .
You are A major credit to this board and I hope you now I meant no offense.
I would love to get that full of a look and if I ever competed you would be #1 to get me to freakazoid status.

I stick with 4 days a week, pretty much year round:

Mon - calves, chest, shoulders
Tues - OFF
Wed - back, traps
Thurs - OFF
Fri - calves, arms
Sat - legs
Sun - OFF

I've tried training more days per week but I don't notice much difference, and it definitely wears me down more. I enjoy my off days.
