Spring 2007 Final Thoughts - What is Next?
I am very pleased with my performance in the NPC Northern Kentucky and Natural Ohio shows. I placed top 5 in a very competitive non-tested regional show and won my class at the Natural Ohio. Most importantly, I displayed a much thicker and better conditioned physique than last time I competed. My posing was also much improved.
I competed as welterweight and realize that I still need to add more density all over, but particularly to my arms, delts, chest and hamstrings. I plan on competing again this fall taking off only 3-4 months to grow and doing some larger shows. The timing falls very well in line with my bodybuilding and training goals as I will be unveiling my RichBodyFit.com website as well as some other ventures that are lurking about.
I also feel that I can train more efficiently postcontest than last time and am fortunate enough to have sponsored testings/logs of a couple new products. I will be testing Athletic Edge’s IntraXcell and Steel Edge for the first 4 weeks and Xfactor for the next 50 days.
I have tentatively targeted the NPC Ohio State Championships here in Columbus, OH and the INBF Naturalmania Nationals in NYC this coming September. I will see how the next 1-2 months of growth goes before I commit.
TIME TO GROW!!!
