Hey all!

So I am going to do it. I am going to be competing in my first bodybuilding show. I will be doing the NGA Natural show here in Boise late April. I recentely (Last Month) finished my bulking cycle and topped out at 250lbs. I am 6′2′’ but that was still alot of weight to be carrying around. I kept my BF down relatively speaking by doing a moderately clean bulk. I am not gunna lie, I did enjoy my fair share of bagels with peanut butter and Nutella, best bulking food ever! But no more! I am now working on my diet and leaning out. I have roughly 8 months to get absolutey shredded, which is plenty of time but I want to do it right. I am down to 235lbs right now at 14.5% BF and a lean body mass of just around 211llbs.

My overall goal is to be on stage at 205-210lbs and sub 6% bodyfat. If I do it slow and possibly do one more bulk if necessary I think I got this. I have been working on my diet and figuring out what works best for me and also what is easy because of my schedule. I am currently enrolled at Boise State University and am taking 17 credits. That ontop of working at Bodybuilding.com full time, tackling this competition will be quite the task. But I am game and ready to take on the competition and get that top spot!

I will be competing in the Novice class since it is my first show, but I will be logging my workout program, diet, and anything on my mind throughout the entire journey. So buckle up, it’s going to be one heck of a ride!

Current Diet:

Breakfast: Two Scoops of Gaspari MyoFusion, 1/4 cup of Oats and 1/4 cup of peanut butter

Meal 2: Turkey Pattie (2), 1/2 cup of brown rice, 1 cup of broccoli
Meal 3:  Turkey Pattie (2), 1/2 cup of brown rice

Meal 4 (Pre Workout): 1 Scoop of Gaspari Myofusion, 1/2 cup of oats

Meal 5: Salad with 2 full chicken breasts, 1 cup of cottage cheese, 1 cup of broccoli
Meal 6: Casein shake and some veggies

For my workout routine I am focusing on high volume and generally hitting 1 to 2 bodyparts per workout followed by 30 minutes of low impact cardio. I am getting a ton of ideas from the videos series on Bodybuilding.com’s video portal. It is the Unleashed Series with Brandon Curry. This guy is brilliant and has some unique and insightful ideas on muscular development.
