So what happened to our protagonist? Did he make it to the stage to capture bodybuilding glory? Was he soundly defeated and sent home to focus for another show? Actually…neither in the curse that continues I was not able to make it to the stage yet again. I made it to the show and got some nice photos done but competition would allude me yet again. As I was preparing last minute, the wife began having stomach pains. Normally this would not be an issue but because she is pregnant, it was an issue. We actually thought she was going into labor since the baby is due in a few weeks. We knew when I first started training for this show a possibility of this may happen but we decided to focus on things and let the chips fall were they may. We ended up going to the hospital for about 4 hours of false labor and nothing much else. The day ended with no spotlight, no stage, and no roar of the crowd but I did end up on my couch with three trophies, the wife, the baby and the baby on the way. EPILOGUE:What’s next? Well I still want to eventually hit the stage this year. Now it is going to be a matter of time as the new baby is coming and a matter of finances. I’m going back to really heavy training tomorrow. I will continue with cardio somewhat to stay somewhat in shape. As for now, there isn’t a plan!
