The Road to the Stage!
Let's take a look at The NPC or National physique committee.
In all fairness you could go Pro in just 2 shows, possible YES!---Probable NOT LIKELY!
Let's look at the break down...
First show you win a open class Bam you qualify for nationals, then if you win that show overall or first place in your class say hello to your IFBB PRO CARD!
So let's look at the full step progress.
1.) Pick a show but allow 16 weeks to prep esp if this is your first show this gives you plently of time for trail and error and stay above the curve.
2.) Register for the show this makes you commit to doing the damn thing!
3.) Register for your NPC card this allows you to compete at a NPC show!
4.) HAVE ALL YOUR GEAR READY FOR PREP.
5.) Start getting a nice base tan
6.) Have your diet prep planned out the week before you start.
7.) Work on posing every chance you get you want to look like a pro on stage!
8.) Start working on your posing routine the whole prep dont want to look sloppy
This is the basic run down checklist before hitting the stage and making a run to first place!

Looking at an npc contest in Oct. I am carrying a ton of fat but lets see what I look like after the EBC recomp. I would be in a masters division. Think first one is 35+.
phil113kgI peeped your pics and your not as fat as you make yourself out to be.I think it will not take you long to dial it in at your present condition. Minus the fact that you will need to bring up some areas. If I were you I would do just that for this recomp EBC and not focus so much on getting leaner. You build and let the compounds, if the right ones are used, do the leaning for you. But your focus should be to add depth to what you have.
Thx bro. I am open to hear what areas you, and anyone else, think I need to bring up. I know my legs are behind and I've been working them hard. Bad lower back makes it difficult.
AnonGood stuff. I'm taking a year off. Placed 2nd my first show in light heavies, lost by a point. 3 judges had me at 1st, 4 had him. Last year, held too much water, fuckin sucked, 4th place. Taking all of 2013 off.....
My question is this. My spring cycle now is
Test e 750mg
Deca 500mg 16 week cycle, drop deca at week 14.
I wanted to run the same cycle in the fall but add eq. What are your thoughts, PapaSwole?
If you are taking a year off, i would honestly focus on mass. Up that Test, High dosage of EQ Maybe some Tren. thats my favorite cycle, never liked deca.....
AnonTest will be upped to 900mg in the fall cycle, eq at 600mg, deca 500mg, and possibly anadrol for the first 4 weeks...thanks for the input brother, I appreciate it
If possible, jump that EQ up too 800, rest sounds pretty good though......
AnonIs there much strength difference bewteen 600mg-800mg?
EQ is not so much about strength, but yes you will see better affects at higher dosage with EQ.......
It's on!
Skipped step 2 because there are 5 shows I'm looking at in the Summer and will make better choices once I gather more information.
But step 3 is in my hands! http://www.eroids.com/pics/npc-here-i-come
Step 4 is pretty much covered or on its way.
Way ahead on step 5.
Papa is working on step 6.
Step 7 covered. Try to keep me away from a mirror!
Step 8 gotta work on! LOL ;-P
Nothing to it but to do it!
yeah buddy!
I see I'm gona learn a lot from this group, just joined your group couple days ago and heard good shit about it, they weren't wrong, hoping do do a show by the end of the year, thanks for accepting me in the group papa
told ya brotha
More than welcome brother any question please ask
phil113kgGreat post. First show is like having sex for the first time. You don't know what the fuck is going on. But the second is "eyes wide open." There are a few gents on here that are wanting to compete for the first time and this post is a good check list.
Sent my NPC registration today!!!!
Hell ya that's my boy we got this
I'm ready Papa, lets show em how to do it!!
its $100 to register right? you are gonna kill it brother! when is your show?
There are multiple shows in the tri state area. I wanna see if they let me do the spring EBC before making a show decision, and talk with Papa about size to be competitive in the masters. Lots of work ahead, I love it!!!
thats awesome man! i hope i have the drive you have in 25 years, its inspirational to say the least. i see no reason why they should keep you out of the ebc, you work hard and get rewarded for it, nothing wrong with that. good luck with ebc and the npc, have a feeling papa is going to be producing quite a few winners this year!
Hope that you all kick ass in the comp. Just have fun show off all the hard work..
I have my first show this august, nervous as fuck. Just hope i got a good coach, he is cheap cause i am broke lol. we shall see....
Me too brother! Just take it day by day. You on the east coast by chance?
Na bro, UT.
oh ok, have one in aug too, was going to be unreal if it was the same one
lol no doubt bro, either way we can keep in touch and compare notes on our first show man...... I might even make a video log on it for some of the bros....
thats not a bad idea, i have a couple of distinctive tats so i wouldnt be able to do it but it def would benefit a lot of ppl
I do also, it would only be shown to select peeps.
Im east coast bro
I'm right beside u in va! Meant to say that the other day
No fuckin shit!!! Pm me bro
Thanks for believing in me Papa and putting me on this Road. Hangin on your every word Brother!

Brother you have drive that is amazing you have a true passion and loved working with you now just to the big stage in a few months
Can't wait Papa! Working with you has been a pleasure!
On our way to VitaminWorld to pick up supplies for "Cleaning the Receptors" and of course more protein (have 30% total and 40% off single item coupons!!) It sucks they don't carry Karbolyn.
Good I will get to your pm this evening...and karbolyn is amazing one of my favorite supplements for sure!!!
Thanks Papa, Mrs.Fit and I started the Split tonight Chest, hell of a pump! The woman is amazing in the gym! I'd like to talk with you about adaptations to these workouts or Nutrition plans for her, although she just sticks with me in the routines, I don't know if its the best way to get to her goals!

samick94have you ever used karbolic by pro sups?
Hate it too thick and filling and bloats me
samick94i thought i was the only one. i work at a supplement store a few days a week to help the owner out, and everyone loves it and we sell out right away always. but i hated it, which is why i never got around to trying any other carb shakes
This might b a stupid fuckin question but if im n off season and run out of cyto carb or whatever cant i just dump sum table sugar in my pwo shake??
