PM Carlos he would know.

[PROTEINSHAKE]

the atlantic states is usually around june 1 or so

[jackjackson]

Nice, whats the first thing that needs to be done.
Weigh in first? Register?

[PROTEINSHAKE]

when the date is announced, get the application, fill it out & pay your entry fee & you will also need to get your NPC card....which you can get the day of the comp--or prior to that online....but wait til the 1st of the year as it expires dec 31 no matter when you purchased it.

[jackjackson]

Are you competing at all?
Where do I go get this infomation, i went to a npc show last year, not to compete, but was pretty motivated by the scene.

[PROTEINSHAKE]

yep....I'll be in the mix somewhere.probly the atlantic states..... not sure 100% yet... U can check bev francis' powerhouse gym website... she has most of the local NY shows listed when they are scheduled..

[jackjackson]

The one on francis lewis boulevard?
Im not to far from there.
Good to know there is someone in range also competing, at my gym, I highley doubt anyone there is competing.

[PROTEINSHAKE]

nah bro...its on LI in syosset.....

what r the details of what you want to do? weight class? age etc?

Im masters liteweight.... if my condition is spot on, I'll do the open & try to whoop some younger dudes..lol

[jackjackson]

Well Welter weight, Currently Im at 172.
My goal is 165 , then i will bulk.
I assume 150-159 class, what is that welter?
Age 24
Let me know if your gonna do it, It be my first time.

[PROTEINSHAKE]

i would think thats liteweight.......whats ur current stats bro? Im def training for it.... worst case scenario --i look sick for summer

[jackjackson]

5'8
24 years old
172 Goal 165
Im training for it and Its been in my mind since last year.
Im on a strict diet and def dedicated.
Im In whitestone, pm me if anything.
Im gonna try natty even though I know it not all natty, But i wanna get the most size natty before anything else.

[PROTEINSHAKE]

you weigh 172 now & want to compete @ 165? so ....ur like 6% bodfat or less? cuz u can lose that 7lbs in a few days...

[jackjackson]

No, I want to get down to 165 before I even start bulking.
I started out at 225 like 2 years ago.
Right now im 172, I wanan get down to 165 before I hit 1 or 2 bulking phases.
Then drop down for a show if possible.
So Id assume 10-15 pounds water weight at 165
I've posted a few pics in other threads.

[PROTEINSHAKE]

if you plan on competing in june or so.... u should be bulking like a mofo rite now dude... diet will start march 1st --thats not far off........ whats ur bodyfat? LBM? if you are going to compete at lets say 155..... u should be like 185 or so by now

[jackjackson]

So you think I should grab some creatine monohydrate + stack all I know to boost GH.
Thinking abuot trying some of the meth 1d stuff.
I wanna try and stay natty for now, but try some OTC crap and see what happens.
Let me know your thoughts as I really do wanna compete in 08
Here are some pics, Havent checked body fat yet, Last time I was like 15% at 180 sometin.
Here is where Im currently at.
I should be hittni 170 this week

[jackjackson]

This photo was taken o about 4 mins from this post

[PROTEINSHAKE]

just briefly....lets say u are 175 in those pics..... you will have to compete around 150 or so to be ripped up...lift hard & heavy brother...EAT BIG...but clean..

[Renesis]

Yeah I am looking to compete this summer as well cept I am nowhere near the weight I want to be at ;(

[jackjackson]

just briefly....lets say u are 175 in those pics..... you will have to compete around 150 or so to be ripped up...lift hard & heavy brother...EAT BIG...but clean..

I will brother, Looking to take possibly some methyl 1d and some OTC test boosters and creatine monohydrate, along with my pure vitargo 1 full serving.

Whats your thoughs on this as for gaining size?
6-8 reps range 4 sets

[PROTEINSHAKE]

@ 24 I wouldnt think you need to take much except the basics...unless you want to go to another level all together..but thats up 2 u. 6-8 reps will yield some good strength & size... google "hypertrophy" training...u probably want to do that most of the time, but switch up your routines every 8 weeks or so to keep it fresh.....u need to work out a good bulking plan.......then a good cutting plan.

[jackjackson]

Yeh 6-8 = hypertrophy. along with size comes strength.
4-6 power
8-12 endurance
Changing up every 4 weeks to give the muscles shock and not to adapt.
Any ideas on what to take, I know what were talking about but not ready to hit there yet.
Will be changing meals up and adding some sweet potato, more carbs, gonna start with 500+ cal intake.

[jackjackson]

Found some haladrol-50 lot 82743 and IDS Mass Tabs (Superdrol)
Think its worth getting?

[PROTEINSHAKE]

thats up to you....

hypertrophy is 8-12
power is 3-6
endurance is 12-18
max strength is 1-2

[jackjackson]

Have on thoughts on it? Doing something like this before the other stuff.

[PROTEINSHAKE]

I've never used that stuff man... no clue about it.

[jackjackson]

Well im gonna try that and a few other things stacked before I head the other route.
