Weight: 159.0
On Monday, I officially start my contest prep diet in preparation for my 28th contest and fourth Pro Show. My goal for the next 13 weeks is to focus on continuing to lift heavy, increase my cardio and maintain a strict contest diet. My diet will begin with a series of low carb days followed by a high carb or refeed day. This is the same plan I used last season which brought me to my best contest condition ever. The only area where I was not as my best was size. I was hard, lean, cut and vascular, but only could bring a 138 pound bantam weight body to the stage. After taking a year off from competing to add some size, this year I will compete 10-12 pounds heavier in weight, while maintaining my same low body fat percentage. The fat burners I will use are VPX’s Meltdown, Beverly International ’s Lean Out and PrimaForce’s Lean Green. I’m hoping to come in at around 148-150 pounds and to look good enough to win my Master Pro class.
I will also maintain a busy contest schedule on the other side of the lights. I am judging the 2009 NGA 2nd Annual Natural Muscle and Figure Classic in Atlanta, GA on March 28, the 2009 NGA Carolina Night of the Champions in Greensboro, NC on June 6, where I will also Guest Pose, the 2009 NGA Music City Night of the Champions in Nashville, TN and I’ll promote my show, the 2009 NGA Alabama Natural Open Bodybuilding, Figure and Fitness Model Championships in Birmingham, AL on July 11.
