Old Navy’s Quest

Sunday, May 24, 2009, Two Weeks Until My Guest Poser Appearance and Three Weeks Until My Next Pro Show

Weight: 150.0 Pounds

I had a great time judging the 2009 SNBF Capital Classic Pro Am Bodybuilding and Figure Championships in Montgomery, Alabama on Saturday.  There were 52 competitors and we awarded three Pro Cards: Open, Figure and Masters.  I competed in this show a few years ago and judged it once before.  I leave for Greensboro, NC a week from Friday to judge and Guest Pose at the 2009 NGA Carolina Night of Champions and then a week later, fly to Montreal for the 2009 FAME Masters Professional World Championships. 

I’m doing well with my diet and am slowly leaning out.  I should be good at around 145-148 pounds for the Guest Posing and competition.  I am still lifting heavy and showing good energy.  And, I’m having a great time.

Friday, May 15, Four Weeks Until My Next Pro Show, the 2009 FAME Master Pro World Championships.

Weight: 152.0 Pounds

I have a busy four weeks between now and June 13, when I step onto the stage for my 28th contest and fifth Pro Show in Montreal, Canada. My weight is on target and I am leaning out nicely. I’m thinking about 148 pounds for stage weight, ten pounds heavier than my last show in June 2008. I continue to lift heavy and feel strong in the gym. I am carefully controlling my contest prep diet. I am also practicing my posing. Meanwhile, I am judging a bodybuilding pro-am contest in Alabama next weekend, judging and guest posing at a show in Greensboro, NC two weeks later and then on to Montreal the following week. Fun stuff.

I am holding posing clinics at my home on Sunday’s for several novice bodybuilders.  They are having a good time learning from “The Old Pro.”
