Thanks for the comments. To answer some questions:

1) I really don't know what I will do to cut yet....I plan to try to bulk until Jan 2003 really wanting to add 10-15 more pounds of lean muscle before I cut.

2) I haven't had my bodyfat checked in a long time. I usually am content as long as my abs are somewhat visible.

3) Many people do say I look bigger than 185....but unfortunately not. I guess being only 5'9" makes me look thicker...and my quads are only like 24" (but they are growing finally).

4) I plan to do the South Carolina NPC State which is early June 2003. I have never competed and probably am too old to really do it...but what they heck. I just want to give it my best effort. The placement isn't that important as long as I feel I gave it my all.

I'll try to get some new leg shots soon.

God damn im 5'7" 182lbs. I dont look half as big as you. Im not sure of my body fat percentage, but the abs are still showing and you cant grab any fat anywhere. You sure that scale aint wrong. Your bones must be hollow or something. Well no matter what you look good and good luck.

Thanks for the comments guys. This week has been tough....I had to force myself to take a week off from training. I needed it bad.....hadn't taken a break in almost 1 year. Hope to come back stronger and full force for 4 months trying to add 10 pounds or so.

I'm 42 BTW.....wished I'd started lifting sooner. Started when I was 39.

Man...isn't that the hardest thing in the world?? I actually had to cancel my gym membership one time in order to force myself to take a week off.....that was the longest week of my life...
