Hells yes you should! If your receptors are clear from proper time off, this is THE best way to push you to the top of your game. Whether you're doing it for general good looks or headed to that stage someday, this is the prep you need! You have to learn your body, diet, and gear as well as adjustments and meeting the goals deadlines. Take a look at the EBC page and the comments. Those guys and Girrilla are all champions! It takes courage to post your fat, skinny, hugely buffed body online while thousands gawk and talk shit. It proves that you have what it takes to push to YOUR goals. Not the goals of others. The camaraderie is evident if you peep the EBC page. Everyone boosts each other, shares gear/food tips, workout advice and general talk. You get to know the folks here. Its been the best thing I've done in years and has me fired up to get onstage next summer. I too had my diet, gym and gear double checked by the vets here and received excellent advice throughout. Thanks to GS, Tread, Goth, Gorillafit, Shrapnel and every contender. This couldn't happen without the support of the entire team and this site!

JUST DO IT!
