I am too embarrassed. I looked better IMO in the beginning pics. I just started my TRT back, yup, totally forgot it when I was sent up north to sit on my ass in classes for weeks and today was the first day back at the gym..... Those ladies kicked my ass in cardio and I could not even look at their asses. Need some test P to get me going and confidence back up. Now my job / work has been excellent if you would like to see those pics. LOL

Walking? You need to speed your ass up!

[cousinmuscles]

Any idea when the winner will be announced?
We can start with me in last place and work our way up.

I needed more time to look closely at the pics and score. Haven't gotten PMs from all judges, I think NACH3 might not do in time since he hasn't been active for a while and had to get surgery for his shoulder

Either way I will post up the scorings slowly, for the suspense

[guitarzan]

Are the rest of the judges still participating?

Post to night or I will name myself as champion. No just kidding. No hurry just was curious.
Thanks for everything you did and are doing.

I’m not racing, slow and steady

Will be incorporating some sprints here soon though, just not hydrated enough

[charger69]

People over the half century mark should get extra points. LOL

4th. musclescience
5th. guitarzan
6th. ragincajun

Fuck if I regret this. I have been comparing pics of each position to the one above and the one below and this is what I can make of it, in terms of muscle gain and/or fat loss. I have penalized muscle loss and fat gain because that is a de-improvement. I don't get offended easily so any response I accept and would like to hear what you think of my scoring (or me lol), but for the other judges keep it respectful

[hollowedzeus]

Av put my votes in lads

Some day they will be old and wise like us.

I got the old covered. Still working on wise.

They can run fast in a straight line for about 30-40 yards. The way to do is zig-zag away from them. They have those scrawny legs so they can’t turn or maneuver quick. And watch out for that tail, they can take your legs out really easy.

And as they say, just have to not be the slowest!

The gators are starting to come out now that it is warming up.

I’ll take that as a no. My buddy Boudreaux and me out run 3 gators one night possum huntin in the bayou. You know gators loves possum.

[Quester]

I pm'd Cousin my ranking a moment ago. They are similar to his, but not same. Here's my top five:
Charger-1
Tarmyg-2
Diesel-3
G-zan-4
MS-5

G-zan and MS are close. MS is closer toward competing but G-zan's fat loss is dramatic. Either way, you both did great and neither is clearly above the other.
Tarmyg did really great too but Charger did slightly better, IMO. I gave it to Charger because it's that much harder to start out big, cut and still grow. I envy both of you.
Diesel, your shoulders look great.

[cousinmuscles]

Still don't have all scorings but I guess I can add one more judges placings and the scoring

almostgone's placings:
1) Tarmyg (+7pt)
2) Charger (+6pt) et.c.
3) Diesel
4) Ghetto
5) MuscleSci
6) Cape
7) Guitarzan
8) RaginCajun

This puts the total scorings at:
tarmyg 14pts
charger69 12pts
diesel101 10pts
musclescience 7pts
guitarzan 4pts
ghettoboyd 4pts
capebuffalo 3pts
ragincajun 2pts

Thank you for all of your efforts! This wouldn’t have been possible without you.
When you do a lat pose, do send your thumbs back and roll forward or do you use your fist in your side and roll forward?

no probs!

I "hook" my thumbs on the back side of my obliques. I push the scapulas outwards and rotate the elbows forward.

[almostgone]

It was really tough ranking you guys. I'm old and slow, but I literally had hours involved in this. Everyone did phenomenal, especially considering the differences in ages, use or nonuse of anabolics, level of development, and of course the frustrating as hell injuries.

Much respect to each of you.

[clarky.]

Very well done fellas, i never posted but i did pop in to see how yous were all doing.

To add some comments to this

Guitarzan showed some serious change. Out of all the before and afters his is the most hard hitting like 'what the fuck' a tremendous change in body composition that i would put forward for the win.

Tarmyg and charger. Very close

This was a hard comp. Lots things to pull focus, injuries, families, the time of year.

But great job to those who finished. You should all be proud of yourselfs. Even to those that got most of the way through, life got in the way but you gave it your best shot.

Jolly well done

[cousinmuscles]

Yep check first post for judge list.

Charger I had some good advantages early on when I started training. When I was 16-17 I trained in a very old hardcore bodybuilding gym full of old and a few young bbers even national level guys at top 3 in the heavy divisions. Some things I learned from them very quickly and easily and somehow my posing isn't too bad. I remember they said not to pull the skin on your midsection as it will stretch the skin on your lower back/lats and will take away definition from there and will take away separation/Christmas tree on the lower lat insertion. I do it anyway never been so lean that you can see any Xmas tree lol nor do I have enough muscle.
