NO BULLSHIT TRAINING THREAD..........JUST TRAINING !

You had 10 pounds of water to loose and no fat?

Correct I was on stage at 215lbs I should have ideally been about 205lbs. I was slamming fluids with the carbs after weigh ins and the next day. I was worried about not being full and I should have just taken in carbs without the fluids. I had a least a gallon of fluids post weigh in that's 8lbs. I also just got nervous and ate too much. If I had simply eaten carbs that night after weigh ins and cut all fluids then not eaten at all the next day I would have had a much leaner look but really just a water change not fat.  But live and learn.

That build
really would’ve been shredded on stage against those two other dudes man. That’s the condition you need. What did you wear there?

Loose fitting shorts or pants and a belt.

If I had simply eaten carbs that night after weigh ins and cut all fluids then not eaten at all the next day I would have had a much leaner look but really just a water change not fat.  But live and learn.

The thing is I can be 215 and in better condition but I would need to weigh in heavier the previous day. It's not a matter of being fat it is a matter of being mid digestion process on stage. My condition can change dramatically in a few hours with fluid and sodium. I need to be empty and not digesting or processing food or fluids. I didn't do that this last time. I was 203lbs the Tuesday morning after the show and looked spectacular. But yeah I was a little heavier and holding fluid and digesting food at the show. However regardless of not hitting my peak right I still had the muscle to win. I can peak a lot better but yeah I probably should be about 205lbs on stage. But the weight class is 209 and I had a day to eat so I came in as big of a 209 as I could. Does that mean i was just carrying 10lbs of undigested food and extra water yeah probably.  I really just wanted to get through the show and I did that. Next show I will diet the last day vs pigging out not a big fix. My body cant really replenish itself overnight like that.

Honestly I would look better I think if I competed heavier but like as in weighed in heavier and everything was fully digested and carb loaded. I did actually have to cut calories the last week to make weight.

Light heavy is 198lbs this is too much for me
Heavyweight is 225lbs I am not there yet.
Classic is 209lbs this is skip eating 1 day make weight for me

I would like to think I could make the jump to 225lb heavy in the next year or 2 but I also think I would be more competitive at Classic as Heavy guys are shorter and will have larger legs. Eventually given my height I should be a super but it will take time. Also yeah the over 40 classes sometimes dont have the weight divisions anyway.

But regardless I am out going to get some work done may be 2026 by the time I get back to stage.

Coach told me what he did. We are all different. There were some things in particular he did differently I will incorporate that I think will make a big difference. But everyone has a different metabolism structure and frame. I will make a change or 2 and see how it goes next time.  Not everyone just wants to emaciate themselves. Stage ready does not mean emaciated. I prefer my look at 230lbs over my look at 200lbs I am going to bring the look I prefer not you.

Great that you finish each session w/ 40 mins on Elliptical SF.
Many ignore cardio... I tend to slack on cardio in winter months as I like to do mine outdoors.
(45 minute daily walk with dog on our hilly course we have in the neighborhood).

When winter is here I tend to only do it like 2 times a week...

YOU FUCKING IDIOT!!  LOL 

If you were halfway intelligent,and a decent guy when you joined here, you could have listened to veterans advice..... but no,you have so much experience you winged it and fucked up like a rank beginner.....which is what you are.

Now all of a sudden Jeo tells you something profound,and you`ve become enlightened.

Humility is a hard learned lesson.....a lesson too hard for you to ever even come close to grasping.
