Let the new era begin!
I completed the bodyspace muscletech transformation contest and NPC Flex Wheeler Classic and was at my all time best! I lost 31lbs in 14 weeks, started at 190lbs and cut down to 159.3lbs! I took second place in the middleweights and was edged out by my friend Mike Gritti by several points from what i heard (still waiting for the official score card). The show had quality competitors but lacked the volume. Nonetheless it was an amazing experience! The Muscular Development crew was there. Dave Palumbo was backstage taking pics of us, Flex made his rounds, Shawn Ray and Kevin Levrone were in the audience. Also i BILLCOMSTOCK was on site and took incredible pictures for all of us. He got 4 good pages on me (you can view them at www.musculardevelopment.com and go to contest photos then Flew Wheeler Classic. Unfortunately i was so focused i didnt get to socialize with them. Afterwards we headed out to Pizza Luce and i tacked down a 16" pizza believe that.
Over the past week i gained 23lbs though day by day i am losing my separation but still i look good. I’ve been having one cheat meal everyday PLUS i’ve been implimenting my new bulkup diet. After Sunday I’m going to cut back on cheat meals down to 2 times a week…but thats unofficial as i’m working with my adviser (Shawn Myszka of EEA who has worked extensively with Dorian Yates for several years!) to get the full game plan.
The plan, the new era is to increase my muscle size, mainly to my quads (outter sweep) and lower back thickness/lats as priority. I intend to push my genetic boundry starting with a gain of 15-20lbs of muscle by 2009 North American in one year. I’m going to approach the offseason like i have never before. Less cheat meals, more quality foods, more protein and more complex carbs(simple for breakfast and postworkout). I’m VERY excited, I’ve never actually wanted to be a IFBB pro besides when i was a teenager but I KNOW and believe in myself that i can do it. Seeing what i look like at a mere 159.3lbs just goes to show that i have TONS of potential ready to be unleashed. Just 20lbs more pounds and i confidently believe i could be anyone pound for pound! But dont take my word for it…i’ll show everyone what i have in store next year.
I’m at a new training facility (LA Fitness) which is THE BOMB. The have a plethora amount of equipment, diverse enough for me to take it to the next level. Plus I’ll be hitting up The Press Gym (Little Canada) now and again for a change. BTW - that is the badest gym in the Twin Cities BAR-NONE! They have a powerlifting room, weight upon weight, straight up OLD SCHOOL where legends like BINGO BINH, CARLA NELSON, CHRISTINE BONGIOVONI, ROAD WARRIORS(wrestling) use to train. The have machines there that you will NOT find at some fitness club, which really hit your muscles good!
I’m very excited for this new era. Lets see what my Vietnamese and Finnish genetics can do!
