Testo is right bro your way far from contest level but at your age, you look pretty damn good, and hes right you need to cut down a lot more, and also i would look into a duretic before the comp. to dry out out and make you look even better. best of luck to ya

**bhamstaff** · 02-25-2008, 08:28 AM

haha was tensing as hard as i could!!

the competition isnt till september. i was aiming to put on 6-10 lbs by july then start cutting for september. yeah need to loose some bloat and more bodyfat.

**bhamstaff** · 02-25-2008, 08:30 AM

yeah, alot of people said give it another year and win. but i want to do a comp and would benefit from the experiance. i know ill place top 5 from who ive seen competing. id be happy with that if im in the condition i want to be in. then next time aim for higher.

definetly, you have a great attitude. some ppl dont have the genitics to win and they know that but they still compete because its fun

thanks

**paulzane** · 02-25-2008, 09:24 AM

Plenty to work with there!! Looking good. Bulk up until June and then cut slowly, aiming to be competition ready from 2 weeks before your comp. You will probably not make it to your best condition by then as most first timers miss their target by a week to ten days! So play it canny and aim for peaking earlier than the competition date. Then you should be in peak condition in time for your placement in the comp!!!!!

Good luck

**bhamstaff** · 02-25-2008, 01:55 PM

thanks for replys, appreciate it.

when i do a rear back spread my back looks quite wide, but when i do a back double bicep my back vanishes, what do you think i should concentrate on my back to make it look bigger? do you think weighted chins with a stretch to get my lower lats out?

**admirals56** · 02-25-2008, 02:13 PM

tbars

**JSola** · 02-25-2008, 08:29 PM

I agree with borntobeblue, you may not win but you will gain valuable experience. i began competing in bjj and submission grappling within my first couple months to get used to fighting in tournaments. the experience alone is worth giving it a shot.

**Jfew44** · 02-25-2008, 09:16 PM

I think you're lookin great bud, especially for never having to diet? Keep up the hard work

**BIG PAPI 08** · 02-25-2008, 11:31 PM

keep up the good work bro.

**Lfs2shrt2bsml** · 02-26-2008, 12:39 AM

lookin sweet bro good luck

**awntzu** · 02-26-2008, 04:21 PM

Kill your quads before the comp, you have sick back development

***Alex*** · 02-26-2008, 05:32 PM

looking good and ready to get your feet wet.

**Growingpains** · 02-28-2008, 10:22 PM

I think you look freakin awesome man, 3 months cutting you'll blow them out of the water!

**Test-Prop604** · 02-28-2008, 10:41 PM
