just want to start off by saying that im not mad in my placing if anything it woke up a beast inside of me. one of stated my size but the guy next to me with the same shorts weighs in at 165-168 ON STAGE i was only 142 point is that i stood my own in my class i feel like if i would of had a better peek week then i would of got top 4. With me knowing that and knowing i got size to go then im going to take a year off and get back on stage at the same show next year to win my novice class at the minimum! looking to bulk up to 165-170 max keep my waist at 30" scale wont be that important but keeping me tight will.

this experience was so amazing i remember when i first bought my muscle development magazine that i bought from target. guy that caught my attention was the big JAY CUTLER ever since then i got addicted to the gym but i did a "dirty bulk" so we know how that went haha so then just thought i would never be able to step on stage that i would just be a fan and never experience the diet face, sleeping all day before the show from a crazy prep and not to mess up your first coat of tanning then waking up on show day pumped up buy so drained and heading to get your second coat. even go back to pumping up before you hit the stage like you would see all the greats do before they hit the stage. honored that i did take home 1 medal wished it was 2 but its just an honor being able to hold my own against those guys that have more experience under their belt and a lot heavier so if i keep my waist small and grow to be able to get on stage 10-15 lbs heavier i know ill win. cant wait for whats to come in this year to get ready for my next show and win for my redemption.
