good for u,guy knows what to do,i expect a different look this time around correct?the shape and look to ur build will always be "classic" but maybe that pro fullness with the conditioning u brought at the ny pro cause u were pretty tight for that show just a bit flat,ur not trying to rebuild the wheel ,just getting all the pieces together at once ,i think your masters win look was really good ,i think thats where u want to be but with a bit more thickness look for the pro's no?202 or open thats the other question,,,

right now i'm eating more food in general, yes more carbs.

my training is going back to doing what works for me, heavy weight, low reps do nothing for me except injury.

moderate to lighter weight and higher reps keep me full, round, and dense. last year i trained too heavy and got too big at 230, and it was a killer to get down to 202 and look good. so right now i'm around 217 and in a better position for when i start my contest prep.

very good,,,at least your smart enough to do it your way and not force something that will only injure u or hurt your overall look,you have enough muscle on your frame by now,it is what it is,conditioning is never a problem for u either,carbs i bet will give a better look for u i think,i'm sure u will play with amounts and adjust it from there.we post on ur thread for a reason cause we want u to well,jersey guys have to stick together,,,

cool vinny, thanx for laying that out.

do u think that eating massive amounts of food like most bodybuilders do is overrated??

personally i feel that bb'ers eat too much food, and there is no possible way to assimilate 7 or 8 meals of massive amounts of food like most guys think they need to eat to grow.

what u think about this vinny?

flexingtonsteele · « **Reply #347 on:** January 06, 2010, 07:09:33 PM »

yes i think some guys eat way too much, but i think we are seeing an END to that way of thinking.
bottom line, why gain 60 to only be 5-10 lbs heavier at next years contest. that makes no sense to me.

better to stay 15 lbs above contest weight. at 12 weeks out....it should be easy for anyone to get ready for a contest.

most guys make BETTER gains while dieting anyway.
