August Most Improved Competition [ENTRY OPEN until start]

[PeanutbutterDC]

Just to be fair, shouldn’t we have a date or a code word to make sure that the pics are from that day. Not that there is any trust issues, it is just common in every competition to have something special that notes that it was from that day forward.

You look amazing! I can't believe you've been out of the gym for 3 months.

[Charlie67]

I don’t have the patience to go at 5pm! 5-5:30 am gal here!

Oh geezzzz.... at 5 a.m. I'm still dreaming about winning the lottery and toting around an IV drip full of tren.

Stop over-thinking, simplicity facilitate many things.

[Charlie67]

That is the downside. But it’s so easy. I mix 10 egg whites a pack of instant grits and an 8oz yogurt fruit smoothie in a shaker turn it up and drink it every morning when I wake up. 15 sec tops.

"Instant grits? No self respecting Southerner uses Instant grits...".

Best movie ever.

But seriously, I'm absolutely going to try that.

I appreciate the kind words. I look so small. Can only go up from here.

Perfect timing for the competition. Wishing you all the gains!

It embarrasses me to post these, mainly because of my lose skin on my stomach, the extra water weight I have put is not helping with that. Current weight 235

Nonsense Guitarzan, looking good brother.... My pics will make you feel better about yourself, LOL.

Why don’t I see the muscles flexed in half the pics??LOL
Charger will be here watching making sure that you do not take advantage of the others. LOL
Nice quads man- I am really looking to see what you can do. Not that I am putting any pressure on.

I thought these were for the comp.
It’s funny you say that. My wife says now you are wearing younger peoples clothes and color. I asked , what are you talking about. You now wear red and brighter colors like the young people.
My answer- because I was so fat only dark colors worked on me so I didn’t look so obese. LOL

Wtf? You look 220 plus... How tall are you?
If you run a cut I put my money on you.

No way you are 190 unless you are 5'5"

Holy fuck just saw the height was on here. Goddamn I am better than I thought.

Tren it up tight diet. You got this. You have awesome shape below that fat. Very impressive!

[charger69]

Charlie, nice thickness and wideness

Octaneforce welcome what are your goals, you would look amazing with low %bf (cut that hair tho).


I agree so much potential here, this going be gud lol

[Couchlockd]

God dayum pb. You definitely put in more work than half of us talk about

Great fucking transformation. No matter what, that's a hard task, I know it.

Octane- just a recommendation- get new pics with better light for the judges. If not you are hoping the judges will fill it in. They may or may not. You are taking a risk with the judges rather than on your actual improvement. My $.02.

Thanks, buddy! 99% diet

It was worse. That was at 140. I was 150 a year before that pic. I lost 10 in a year then hired a diet coach. Ftr, I was exercising daily at that point. 99% diet!

[cousinmuscles]

Got done with morning cardio. Feels great!


Looking good guys! Will compile pics after work.

[marcus300]

Looks like a great comp and you'll looking great. I'll be watching and reserve judgement at this stage

Wow thanks obs i feel like my crush just asked me to the dance lmao. Im always scared to do hard cut because i dont want to sacrifice mass. But you just gave me a good reason to shred the fuck up for the next 12 weeks.

Its so weird not seeing your name as bizzarro! The hair is a wig for disguise haha. I wish i had hair like that. I guess my goal is to just shed bodyfat without losing muscle. If i could add some size on top of that goal id be impressed with myself.

Morning all,

Looking forward to seeing everyone's pics this week.

@Cousinmuscles Dude, just a quick thanks for keep this thing moving, I know its a lot of work, Its greatly appreciated and means a lot!

Best,

I am just going to throw this out there. If you think it is silly so be it.....
How about at the half way point a preliminary evaluation and scoring is accomplished?
I think that this will let the contestants have a little feedback on where they are ( in the eyes of the judges) and it may provide some guidance that may lead to a better end result.
Furthermore, the judges may become a little more calibrated to each other causing less disparity in the placings.
