Mike Arvilla explain yourself....

[The Master]

Come on Mike, you can do this shit.  We're competing on the same day so lets show these Getbig sucka MC's what time it is.

If you're putting up new pictures, so am I.  5-15-09.  Posing is shaky but this is to let people know that this show isn't a joke for me. 

Haha! You're 20 weeks out there conditioning wise

[The Ugly]

I certainly hope you take the contest more seriously this time 

Like ray-ee-aaain on your wedding day ...

[michael arvilla]

Mike how much sleep do you get per night, i find it amusing to know?

Jeff.............not much (got dark circles under my eyes/between the ECA and "Thermo's" im taking and the diet/going to bed and waking up starving ........plus the nightly and morning cardio sessions)

maybe 5 - 6 hours? (sometimes more/sometimes less)
(having weird/serious "food dreams"  kinna like sex dreams only with food!)

The show might not be, but you & that physique are most def. a joke & a bad one at that & yes 3 were necessary

Mike what rep-range do you generally train with. I know you mention being old school.. free weights... lower reps ?? or are you going for more volume?

8 -12 rep range           (6 - 8 sometimes "offseason")  free weights mostly
now at 2 weeks out .....12 rep range/mix of free weights and machines

(im a "high volume" guy/lot's of sets/reps)

[The ChemistV2]

Ok, in this shot, it looks to me that you might be able to pull this off.. and again if you can keep some of this size..and not come in too flat or depleted, you'll look great. It's not going to be easy of course, but I think you can do it! Looking good here.

if its not too personal and too much work I would be curious what your actual leg and chest training consists of? exercises, sets, reps and weights?

n/p ......todays is "legs" actually so
Squats (smith machine/because it's 2 weeks out plus lower back and knees been really bothering me)
don't count sets/reps (we just go until my legs are "quivering") could be 45 mins - hour just on squats
depending on how much we did leg press/or hack squats (or both) then finish with extensions
(we split quads and hams up on seperate days to really blast them)
hams the next day.......not much variety with ham training

chest = incline presses,hammer inclines,flat dumbell presses,incline dumbell flyes,pec-deck,cable crossovers (again i don't count sets reps just go until im spent)
