There was a pro photographer taking mandatory photos waiting to see them but I was leaner than him and drier. Yes his legs are good and mine are a little weak but I am twice his size he had no chest arms or delts. I thought those were important as well.
And yes it is one pic but you can see by the obliques my condition was better a lot better or at least that is what I see. The arms don't even compare he had none. Again though I am not a judge. I did curse out one of the judges about two weeks prior to the show and call him obese and delusional but there was a panel of judges.
Anyway don't want to be a bad sport congrats to the winner I just don't get it at all I didn't think it was close
I am the white guy on the right the little guy won the overall I took second. I also thought I was leaner more vascular and more muscular however apparently the judges disagreed. Does that seem like a legit call? Is it close?
From what I can see....
Apples and oranges physique onstage.
You have a bigger upper body and he has the lower.
His midsection does stand out a bit as well.
You have him in some bodyparts, he was you in some. Bigger doesn't always mean you win. Pics aren't sharp enough for me to call conditioning. You calling out a judge a couple weeks prior wasn't a smart move and could've had some impact on your placing.
My suggestion. Hop on a plane and hit a W Coast NPC show. You'll get a fair shake and more than likely the show will be pretty big. I see two guys on stage for the overall. Just two classes? Maybe you didn't get a fair shake. There's always another show around the corner you could do.
And if you do decide to compete in an NPC show, I would leave talking about the judges out of your prep. Talking down about an NPC judge will render you in tied for last place placing or last call out!
