First contest as a light heavy. Here I am two weeks out.

**Toxicwaste** · 10-25-2002, 01:08 PM

Side chest

**Toxicwaste** · 10-25-2002, 01:09 PM

crab shot

**Iron horse** · 10-25-2002, 01:11 PM

overall, pretty good, I think you could try and rip them legs up a little harder though (the upper thigh)

JMO

Look really good, and on track for sure, you look ready to me. Good Luck!

**Pete235** · 10-25-2002, 01:14 PM

I agree with Silverfox, look spot on...last bit of water will disappear before show. Great work bro!

**musclemagGIRL** · 10-25-2002, 02:25 PM

not bad at all.. just not proportional. Need more mass on your legs overall.. and the calves as well.

**bulkmeUP** · 10-25-2002, 06:57 PM

back looks awesome

**latasaurus** · 10-25-2002, 06:58 PM

try and control your abs when you do a side chest .you need to use the old vaccum method .get some size on the legs next year, but fuck it you got to get your feet wet .look ripped otherwise.good luck at you showand be confident.

Wish i was that "disproportional"

But, whether your upper body is just so big that it overwhelms the lower, or your lower is legitimately small (for your size) the fact is that discrepancy does exist. Could you post a calf/bi measurements...i'd be willing to bet your arms have two inches on the calves. But, again, bet there's more than a few people who'd like to have that problem. Best of luck

**MIKE_XXL** · 10-25-2002, 08:54 PM

You look very good Bro, nice and tight, great work all you need is to improve the quad sweep and you are set...good luck at your show...XXL

**freakout** · 10-25-2002, 09:20 PM

Good luck for your show... You could trash them down!!!!

**Warrior** · 10-25-2002, 09:35 PM

Look good... Rear Delts, Traps, Rhomboids... lookin' solid - with good balance.

**Iwan2bsolid2** · 10-25-2002, 10:52 PM

looking ripped bro...nice work. A tan will extentuate even more...GOOD luck bud.

**Carlos_E** · 10-26-2002, 04:29 AM

Nice back symmetry

**sp9** · 10-26-2002, 05:54 AM

Agree with Carlos, that first picture is amazing on the back and delts. You look great. Can definitley see front, side, and back delts distinctly. Back is just popping out all over. great work.

**TurkGucu** · 10-26-2002, 06:42 AM

awesome back , shoulders and arms!!!

**Toxicwaste** · 10-26-2002, 12:38 PM

If all goes well...

I will just barely inch into the light-heavies. Carb up real well after weigh in's and be on stage about 205-210. Should be one of the larger lt heavies. Which is good but I realize this does nothing to help balance my symmetry anymore. Legs arent that strong to begin with and probably burned off some muscle on my legs with the cardio. I got good cuts on my quads by lack some of the thickness to match my upper body. I'm 5'11" too which further excentuates my imbalance. On the up side, if my legs were any bigger, I'd have to compete as a heavy weight. Probably couldnt compete real well as a heavy considering my height and off-season weight of 215. Thanks for the feedback. I'm ready to rock and roll!!!!!

Nice bro, I'm the same height and have the same problem with legs. Since cutting down I've lost alot of mass in them. It sucks. I've started to use this eliptical machine that uses arms and legs in sequence, and I've really tried to focus on using my upper body more than lower to try and even out. Cardio kills the legs

-especially if your not on any gear.

**pumpseeker** · 10-29-2002, 03:31 PM

That back shot is solid. Great lat development! Just keep building up those legs and you will be top ranking. I have the same problem at 6'2" but I'm hitting them very hard and making improvements.
