Well all, the time has come.  This sat March 6, I start my contest diet for the South Jersey Bodybuilding Championships.  Hopefully this time around i can stay healthy and injury free.  Wish me luck, talk to all of you soon.

well all, i have begun training for the south jersey bodybuilding championships on may 30… i start my contest diet on feb 28 so lets keep our fingers crossed

well unfortunatelybecause of a problem with diet at the end here, i am out of the show.  my metabolism kicked off for some reason and we couldnt get it to recover soon enough.  no regrets though, i look the best i have in years.  i am going to finish out the diet and then take two weeks off from everything to heal.  after that i will begin a 12 week bulk up phase and start moving to do a summer show.  thank you all for your support during this diet and we’ll get em in 08.

well all this morning me and my trainer made a very difficult decision…we have backed out of the sept 22 show b/c we felt i just wouldnt be in the best shape i could be.  we have decided to enter the golds classic on oct 27 in point pleasant.  this gives me 8 weeks more to really clean up and be at my best.  thats what this sport is all about.  and to be honest, i feel a lot better with the decision that we made.

well, we made a couple of small changes in my diet and it paid off.  last week at this time, i was 233 lbs…a week later, we can see the outsides of my abs and the line down the middle forming…my bodyweight also dropped from 233 to 228…feels awesome

well all, its lookin good for september 22. im at 8 weeks out and the bodyfat is melting away.  so far, ive lost 20 lbs(from 252 to 232) and shed 2 inches off my waist size…cant rem the last time i wore a size 34…lol.  the diet has its moments of frustration but im getting through it. it is truly amazing to watch the body respond to dieting.   we’ve begun not only the cumpulsory poses, but also my actual routine.  so all of my friends, im asking your opinion.  for my music, the frontrunner is higher by creed.  however we’re also looking at the song with arms wide open.  keep in mind that we only have 60 seconds to pose so tell me what you all like….as always thank you all for your support 

im 13 weeks out from a show and i have run into a small problem.  my surgically repaired left leg is smaller than my right one.  does anybody have any ideas that may help?…any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

i made a mistake on my last post.  during week 1, i dropped from 252 to 240 not 245…sorry about that.

well everybody week one of my contest diet is over with. the first week went really well…im down from 252 on june 2 to 245 on june 9.  im already seeing definition…cant wait to see what week 2 brings…talk to you all later 

well all, its time to start.  After meeting with my trainer we decided to start the contest diet a week early so we had a little extra time in case we ran into any unexpected trouble.  im really amped up to get it all going.  So my contest diet start date will be june 2 instead of june 9.  d-day is here.  looks like my starting weight will be 252 and looking at 220 as a marker.  i should have my pics up this weekend or early next week…let the games begin.
