    That’s crazy vascularity!
    You look more incredible by the day.
    Your dedication is extremely motivational.
    Remember to take your time and truly enjoy the whole process you have worked so hard for. This is your time!

    I am holding a lot of water. I am carb loading and I hate carbs now. LOL
    I was going to skip cardio tonight however Due to the water, I need to go to cardio tonight and sauna. At least I have energy!!!!!
    Trying to force down 300 g of carbs. I’m at about 225 g.
    I like the way I filled out, concerned about the water.
    I have stopped the pedialyte and going to start diuretic. I was hoping that I would not have to take any.
    I will take pics tonight, but I am expecting to be full of water.

    I would think pedialyte would do just fine if you limited water consumption.

    Remember coffee is a diuretic so you can drink small amounts of it. Just a cap full of water if you need it.

    I just want to clarify and add a small detail to this post . I think Obs means by "when this is over" , is when charger is off season and ready to grow . NOT "when this is over" meaning post contest.

    this would be very very dangerous to do post contest and you could very easily find yourself in the ER with cardiac edema on the verge of heart failure . could you gain 25 pounds in a day and blow up like a monster . yes. but you chance heart failure.
    The things that have been done here over the past couple weeks and these last few days with depletion, electrolytes, mineral and nutrient landing, the water manipulation, certain drugs and the final dehydration at the very end ,, puts your body in a very unique and sensitive position.
    Insulin is going to work very different immediately post show then it every worked in the off season. its going to be 10 x as powerful. its going to strip your body of potassium very rapidly (insulin requires potassium). your already on the verge of low potassium and some people go into cardiac issues because of this alone on top of diuretics . then on the opposite end of the spectrum theres the rebound effect that could happen and because of all the food while in that state your body starts retaining tons of water and sodium to the point that you get cardiac edema . that 25 pound rebound , its not all scale weight in the muscle . its fluid surrounding your organs.

    again just clarifying to casual readers of this blog who may of skimmed over Obs post and did not fully read it and missed the statement about it being "next bulk" , and NOT after contest is over.

    just for safety wanted to put that out there

    Obs idea is great . just remember he said 'next bulk" phase and not after contest

    I am hoping for better pics tomorrow!!
    This prep has me in better spirits. I still have not nailed down my routine.
    I was airbrushes today. I am so glad that I have 0 libido.
    I’m there standing in my posing trunks and she is on her knees and her head very close. I wanted to take a pic. LOL
    She was safe with me though.

    Two days ago I was at 200.5, yesterday 203.7, and today 202.5.
    Carb loading made the difference and hopefully water yesterday.
    I slept in a little. I didn’t get up until 3:30.

    Today 45 minutes of LISS in a wet suit, upper body workout- I’m doing the Cape again. And finally sauna.
    Oh- fasted state.
    I am going to weigh myself before and after.

    Oh- not a better time than now for my prostate to start acting up!! Trying to dehydrate and dribbles only. I will take some flow max which should help. There is no way in hell that I am going to let any Dr near me. In the state that I am in, they will probably tell me that the tests show I’m dead. LOL
    No, no, no. The Dr’s start going down rabbit holes and a ton of testing. You know what it is, but they are looking for an explanation.

    Today T4, Winnie and halo. Today is the last day.
    I’m not sure what is in store for me after, but I can tell you, Monday morning I start training for the next competition. I’m being a slacker and taking Sunday off...... maybe. LOL
    Pics a little later. Tonight I should have the better pics from the poperazzi . LOL
    Feeling good right now, but wondering what I will be like after the workout.
    75 g of carbs today.

    Tonight a chilled bottle of wine and steak dinner????

    I’m proud of you. Your work ethic and dedication leading up to today is second to none buddy. You have busted your ass and it shows. Do me a favor, tomorrow go out there and have fun. No if and but thoughts in your head. You’ve had a long hard journey. Enjoy the finish line.

    Well, it’s almost time.
    I went in to register like they needed to take it from me. No one challenged me. I have never gone into a competition like this before. I usually go in to see who will be in first.
    I really want to thank everyone for their support. This is the first one that I have this confidence like never before. I have been doing LISS lately to save glycogen and I keep going over what everyone has said to me. Obs, Cape, the Wickr crew, etc. at first it was hard, but not now with the confidence. I will never forget where I came from or the effort to get here. I will always be real and I will not become an arrogant sob, however they will perceive the confidence. I couldn’t believe it today, they definitely perceived confidence.
    Truthfully, no one seemed close to my condition. They all seemed very flat. That could definitely change tomorrow. I know that I will change by morning. Hopefully for the better. LOL
    It’s been a long road and tomorrow is the moment of truth. This was even with suspected heart issues ( which was later found to be my fault with the stims and T3). I stopped all stims and cuttinagents for a couple of weeks during prep trying to get things situated.
    It’s not over until the fat lady sings. Working right up until the night show. When it’s all done, I can say I gave it 100% and I have improved from last year and have the best body ever. It’s far from perfect but each year I make it better.
    I registered today and weighed in at 198.8. I lost weight during the day. I am coming in about 15 lbs heavier than last year’s comp.
    I will post in the morning. A couple of sips of wine and I am ready for bed. LOL

    Adamantine conviction does not require humility.

    We should be confident after a long stroll through hell. No one on that stage carried the burdens you did or close.

    Let the chorus of this run through your head on the way there today. When you are walking in and when you’re pumping up.

    I Am Number One

    I’m here. Now it’s just a waiting game.
    I’m feeling good but a little too sensitive. I need to bring my head into it more.
    Hundreds of hours preparing and about 5 minutes to show the hard work.
    I have the physical attributes. Time to be recognized.

    Wifee says you own this. No one can take this from you. Men look away. Women quiver. The stage will quake under you.

    I'll get you an extra reward from her after your win ;-)

    So take it. It's yours

    God damn dude! You’re so shredded. And your 15lbs heavier than last year? Wtf. That’s amazing man. You really do inspire me. And I know I’m not the only one. The things you’re doing right now are simply amazing.

    Poor bastard.

    The cartels will not be happy about this.

    They gave him light work last few months only if he would win it.

    I surely hope they stop at just a few fingers and not the whole head.
