Well I attended my first show today.  A kinda hokey show at a HS auditorium.  Not the best run show ever but there were a few decent competetors there.  I went with 3 guys from my gym at work.  We have a great little gym at work.  Right on site, only 12 bucks a month.  I go durring lunch.  Well a few people in there have been doing bodybuilding shows.  And they win their classes.  It really is kinda inspiring.  So two of these guys, Jeff and Rich, asked myself and another guy, Jason, if we wanted to go check out this show.  Another co-worker Kelly was competing in the show.  She looked as though she was going to do well.  Again the show wasn’t the best run ever, but entertaining enough.  We didn’t stay for the whole thing.  Just went for the morning pre-judging.  It was interesting.  Even with it being kind of a corny contest, it didnt deter me from wanting to train for a show.  Still not sure I’m going to be able to stand up there in some little speedos and let some group of strangers judge me.  The concept is still difficult for me to accept.  But I would love to be in much better shape.  We will see.  There is a show in the area that all these same people that I work with, will be entering in October.  I am going to try and bulk up now through June.  Then I will attempt to cut through the summer til August where I have set a goal of 9% bodyfat.  If I can be disiplined enough to get to that point, I will concider that october show.
