Before dieting.



Here is an updated picture. My quads look flat from carb cycling. They are usually much fuller. I'm 5'6" 202. 5 1/2 weeks out from show. I hate dieting!!!
I'll take more pictures after I eat some carbs.

RIGHT ON! Good to see...for is it... almost 6 weeks out? Jeez...202lbs depleted@ 5'6"ish....those wheels must be...I'm guessin' around 28-30inches?

I happened to like that fat and water. I miss it.

[Carlos_E]

For fun...

This is what I used to look like. 130ish I think. I forget. ...And the wheels. This is what I see when I look in the mirror.

At 130lbs you look bigger than I look at 200lbs...

[THE_DOME]

[Hackamaniac]

[marcus300]

carlos your looking very impressive

[Carlos_E]

Thank you. It's coming along and my weight isn't dropping which is good. If you can tell I haven't trained abs in 2 years. I'm going to start this weekend. Also uping cardio.

[Hackamaniac]

Looking damn good bro!!!I can't wait to see the final product!!!

[C_Bino]

Right on my friend, like I said all these times you are looking great, really porportioned and just an overall VERY balanced and pleasing look.

[1buffsob]

Damn Carlos. Great physique brother. You look real good. A little flat in the pics, but it's expected when carb cycling.

Keep it up.

[BigLittleTim]

Oh, Carlos! Before! Before!!!

With legs like that you should NEVER diet down.

I don't think I'm alone in saying that you (and most guys) look much more jacked when you're still six weeks out from competition.

Muscle + fat + water = Hot

-BigLittleTim

[BajanBastard]

Looking great........................ as usual

[FITFANATIK]

....5 weeks and a day...so only about 33 fat burning days left!
We need to see a back double bi and the glute ham tie in....

I'd say you are still within range...don't get sloppy though...keep them cheat meals to an absolute bare minimum. I've hear of guys going 16 weeks without even 1 cheat meal....I couldn't do it.

Keep your eyes on the prize!

[Carlos_E]

Here's a comparison from last prep.

10.28.04 / 2 Weeks out................................................... .................................9.29.06 / 5.5 Weeks out

[Carlos_E]

I've hear of guys going 16 weeks without even 1 cheat meal....I couldn't do it.

Keep your eyes on the prize!

I'm one of those guys. I don't do cheat meals during prep. I stick to the diet.

[IBdmfkr]

There is no cheating within 8-10wks out.

Carlos, big difference brother! Shoulders look much more capped, chest/lats have added a bit of mass.
What's the weight difference?

[Carlos_E]

What's the weight difference?

25-28 pounds. Mainly mass added to my legs and back.

I think I am on track as far as weight loss. I want to keep it slow so I keep as much muscle as possible. I'm still 200+.

Another thing ... as far as "supplements." I'm taking less than half of what Jason had me take last time. Victor is not big on running high doses of "supps." I find that interesting considering I weigh about 30 pounds more.

[*Narkissos*]

Jeez.. your quads

Your arms..

Heck Carlos you even have a chest now..

You're perfect.. i hate you

[JohnboyF]

He really means he loves you....


Carlos looking amazing bro!!! When is the exact date of your contest?
