Results of the show
Well I ended up thiird at the NPC Cal show which was really disappointing after I checked out the contest photos today at Musclecontest.com. I thought it should have been 2nd at least. But I was really pleased with my condition which was the best ever. The week before the show I carb depleated for 3 days at 50gms a day and went from 182 to 175. Then 2 days to carb up and ended up at 180 at 5.8%bf. From the pictures the detail I achieved especially with my back was very satisfing. The combination of leaness and size was my best ever. So I know it is still possible to change and effect your physique at thi age. The guy who won is 65 and he just missed winning the NPC National Masters Champ. last year by 1 point. So I guess I’ll still keep training because it still keeps working. russyoung/oldsage

Doing a show is just a bonus, the lifestyle you are leading is the true reward. Rock on!

I checked out the contest pics and you definitely got the shaft Russ. Second place was too smooth and regarding the winner, your upper body was a wash with his, but your legs had him beat. I would have had you in 1st…
