Work in Progress - Advice please

[michelin]

Been a member for a few months now so I thought I'd throw a few pics up for critique.

I'm 5'10" and 210lbs. I train 4 days a week free weights in my garage. Been lifting on and off for 10 years but training solid and getting diet in check for the past 6 months. This board and some of the cool guys on here have been very inspirational.
I'm wanting to compete in 12 months time at a local comp, I know its a long way off but its one of my life ambitions and its what I'm aiming for.

Please take it easy, its quite daunting to post these and I know my posing is crap but its all a learning curve for me

I don't know your diet, but I wouldn't wait till the end to start eating clean, give yourself plenty of time.

good base with the help of a good nutrition guy or gal with the rest of your offseason then through your prep you should look great good balance top to bottom.

You have reasonable balance and some good muscle happing there. Just keep doing what you are doing, it takes time to get there, but you are on your way!!

A contest sounds like a great idea. No matter how you do it will give you a guage as to where you want to go from there. Plus you will be in really good shape after all the dieting. Pursue your goals and good luck!
