    HERE'S WHY I PLACED BAD....w/pics

    Hey Bros. After Talking to one of the judges I was in contact with and sending that judge my picture.I sent that judge pictures twice 4 weeks out an d1 week out. at 4 weeks The judge said looking great be careful not to peak too early. at 1 week out the judge say looking ripped and ready. So after emailing the judge, I was told that I over peaked, got flat and looked smoother than I should have been. My 1 week out photo is what I should have looked like. The Judge also said even 2 weeks out photo would have been a better look. So now I'm going to test that theory and do the November show (Eastern USA 11/4/06) and do it in top of LH or Heavy weight, I believe Carlos is doing that show also. After looking at the pictures the judge was right. take a look for yourself.

    You did flaten out a bit, still looked great in the show photo, but a bit flatter less vascular, chest striations look less appearant etc...what do you think you did wrong, did you over deplete? Under carbed/fatloaded, or too much diuretics?

    I would have to say too much duiretic would be the answer. I had to use demadex which I hate because its so powerful and it was a drug tested show and dexamex is not on the banned list. I only took less than half thurdays at 3pm so thats maybe 7-8mg out of 20mg then another 7-8mg by bed time after 10pm then half which is 10mg after my big morning breakfast. an dI think that did it. I would have been better off without duiretics and use only dandy lion root or something. Well like I said lesson learned. I wish I was able to use diazide, it always treated me well. I'll never use demadex anymore too strong and if your not careful you can kill yourself on demadex. so to all who read this try to avoid demadex. I'd rather dry out naturally.

    Its true that you did peak quite early, but you were so over looked bro, there were guys that should have placed lower than you. Even though the shows over and done with, know ment, that you were overlooked badly. You will come to your next even better man, and there will be no way they can deny you then

    Hey M, its possible that you peaked to early, yes, but what do you think about spilling from the shitload? Mate, im taking nothing away from you, you really do look good, but from my previous experiences from shitloading, and i only did a very small amount, i felt that i would have been better if i had let it alone, and just cruized on in to the show on a normal diet plan and using herbal diretics(which i have successfully done b4). I guess everyone is different, but just want to ask your opinion of this by your experience......

    Bro. I've done this numerous times, shittloading alway worked well for me and I did nothing different this time. infact if I spilled over I'd look much bigger, fuller and probably smoother. It was the duiretic for sure that did me dirty, lol.

    very true...Demadex is strong, and caution should be used.
