Got your PM bro

today at 10 weeks out. Tell me whatcha think as far as mass gains.

Your shape is similar to mine.

You're carrying a lot of mass however.



Props!

As to condition however, I think you're behind for 10 weeks out.

Step it up and you should do well!

Awesome build!

Thanks for the support bro. Its funny because I was thinking i was a little ahead until I took these pictures and looked at them myself on the computer haha. Now I can see I have my work cut out for me these next 10 weeks. Hopefully the clen/t3/yohimbe combo will do its share. Plus im bumping up my cardio up about 5 minutes every week or so. These are the first pics ive taken of myself since Ive started to diet so I guess I should do it more often to really critique myself. Thanks again for the help bro. You gonna be competing anytime in 2008 yourself?

It happens mate...

That's why it always helps to have a second pair of (experienced) eyes.

See if you can find a competitor who isn't doing this show to watch you pose at least once per week. That'll give you the feedback you need.

Now I can see I have my work cut out for me these next 10 weeks.

You can do it mate. From where you at, you can be shredded in 8 weeks, providing that you know what you're about. Plug away at it.

Hopefully the clen/t3/yohimbe combo will do its share. Plus im bumping up my cardio up about 5 minutes every week or so.

Leave nothing to chance.

Bump your training intensity and cardio up now.

If you get ahead of schedule, you can always bring the cardio back down while keeping the intensity high.

Definitely.

Some suggest taking 'em every 2 weeks.

Personally i take them from week to week... cus drastic shit happens when i'm cutting.

If it isn't happening, I'm doing something wrong.

Every week i MUST look better than the week prior.

Not the same.. better.

Always take the pics around the same time, and around the same conditions (i.e. first thing in the morning when you're flat.. etc. Last thing at night, provided that: carb intake was the same etc,)

Thanks again for the help bro.

np bro

I'm hoping to.

Got injured pretty seriously in 2007.

This caused me to take the year off.

Got injured again at the start of this year.

The body's telling me to take it easy...so i will.

Imma start my prep for Nationals 6 months out, as opposed to my usual 3.

Depending on where i'm at 3 months out, I'll decide if i'm competing or not.

The nationals here are on August 16th.

I'm starting my prep on the 17th of March.

I know i won't be huge... but i plan on being striated from neck to ankle.

Busted both knees, so i figure that my best bodypart (legs) will be my worst this time around.

Bumping the ante on calves, back and arms (my better bodyparts) to add width to my torso and extremeties.

My calves are already the same size as my arms... but I'm hoping to get them larger to pull attention away from my quads.

Hams will be large despite the ACL/LCL injury.

I'm still able to do deadlifts/SLDLs in the interim.

Wish me luck
