Both Bast and daddywadders have been good sports about it. They congratulated whateva and were cool with the results.

Pretty much only one guy who couldn't live with the results. 8)

Bast were fcuked by his calves and shitty posing, otherwise he would probably have gotten 2nd.

Adonis and Bast will be in the top 2 for sure, supposedly danielson's friend is doing it and he might place pretty well, DW will do well if he puts his size back on, is Alexxx doing it?

I heard there's a minimum weight of 140 pounds without gear. Looks like you're out, paki. Come back when you've got that video of you squatting 225 for 12 that you promised all of us 6 months ago.  I mean, that's a helluva lot of weight, if you can do that then you must surely be capable of winning the Mr. Getbig. ::)

I wouldn't call that a good thing for a bodybuilding contest. If that's the case he'll really look like a ripped swimmer.

I'll lose it in 6 weeks if I want - I simply crash diet ;D

It's fast and you lose about 10 lbs of muscle tops, but it's easy and you don't have to do Cardio which I'm opposed to doing in principle - cause it's boring :-X

I expect to weigh about 200 - 205 lbs. I'm as tall as the man DJ himself 8)

But doesn't drafting a guy in to compete go against the spirit of the competition?  ???

Whether he racks up the requisite number of posts between now and the comp or not, he couldn't really ever claim the title of Mr. Getbig. 

I would recognise the highest finishing, natural, regular getbigger as the REAL Mr. Getbig!

Maybe, but I tend to think of this contest as an excellent way for the site to grow. I hope many new people sign up to Getbig, to either enter the contest or to just watch from the sidelines. Do you really want to see the same 7 people enter every year?

I take your point about not wanting to see the same 7 year after year, but i AM interested to see the improvements/regressions in TA's or Waddy's physiques for example.  Besides, from the response so far we'll have several more entries from the pool of regular getbig posters.

I suppose my argument is that the element of rivalry between Bast/kiwiol/goodrum (we can but hope he of the peerless calves will throw his hat in the ring!!) etc and the subsequent bragging rights depending on who places where will be somewhat diluted should a few non-getbiggers sweep the top few places.  See where i'm coming from?

Again, fair point, but the lack of prestige afforded the MD cyber classic (where the physiques were of a much higher quality than the Mr. getbig) was due to the lack of rivalry and backstory.

I'd much rather see goodrum and 240 lock horns than "danielson's buddy" against some other randomer, regardless of the quality of physique.

Just my 2 cents, as u yanks say.

The MD comp was a poor imitation of the Mr Getbig, which missed the point all together. They had people enter/register that were not even from their board and the vast majority have not been seen since.. The best thing about the Mr Getbig was that it got the keyboard warriors involved- the actual contributors to this board, which is something MD cannot (much to their disdain) cant claim.

Awesome! I haven't been there in 6 years, but I used to train in a few gyms - Thor's gym in WestEnd, Archer's Gym in Annerly (later on South Bank Fitness club :P). I also trained in QUT's gym (city campus - circa 1995) and UQ's gym over the bridge.

Ah the memories 8)

I also trained in a studio in Greenlane and there were these guys who were just about the most awesome crew ever ;D Do you know any of those places?

No offense intended to MD, but this is a valid point.

MD, obviously as a magazine was able to offer the exposure etc. Mr. Getbig was far more grassroots and had far more camaraderie. The contest included 'real' members, which MD's did not. One thing about the contest that was very nice, was for a brief 24hr period everyone was all nice, congratulating others, the biggest 'trolls' on the site came out with supportive comments. Naturally.....the flaming started back up, but for a while we had some really good spirits on the board.

No offense intended to MD, but this is a valid point.

MD, obviously as a magazine was able to offer the exposure etc. Mr. Getbig was far more grassroots and had far more camaraderie. The contest included 'real' members, which MD's did not. One thing about the contest that was very nice, was for a brief 24hr period everyone was all nice, congratulating others, the biggest 'trolls' on the site came out with supportive comments. Naturally.....the flaming started back up, but for a while we had some really good spirits on the board.



Thanks CQ.

The exposure given to the MD winner hasn't to date eventuated - they were promised a cover (the winner was judged early March, its almost now July).

MD initially marketed their competition to their grassroots then it became a "fringe" national caliber competition, which really didn't capture the exitement of their regular board members.

Oh man this really sounds cool. I fully know that i will get wasted by the rest of the guys here ;D but I'm thinking about entering to give me an extra reason to keep motivated to train hard. I've only been back in the gym for about 3 months though so I really should stick to bulking up i guess. Just sounds like fun though :). When do we have to confirm that we are entering or not?

Awesome! I haven't been there in 6 years, but I used to train in a few gyms - Thor's gym in WestEnd, Archer's Gym in Annerly (later on South Bank Fitness club :P). I also trained in QUT's gym (city campus - circa 1995) and UQ's gym over the bridge.

Ah the memories 8)

I also trained in a studio in Greenlane and there were these guys who were just about the most awesome crew ever ;D Do you know any of those places?

I have heard of the first 2, and I'll probably sign up at UQ's gym sometime soon caus I'm studying there.

I might enter.  The only thing stoping me is im pale white but I think I might start getting a tan.  I think I have a good chance of winning.  Meatheadis might give me some competition though so i'll get either 1st or 2nd.

no, I have a bad farmers tan.  Some of the photos give the apearence that I actually have color for some reason the lighting gave that apearence.  The bottom one shows how pale I am.  The one of me at 156 is at an upward angle so it looks funny.  The bad side chest pose was today at 164.
sorry not you this photo 8)

You don't have to confirm anytime per se, yes it's nice to know early, but you can enter right up to the day if you want.

I think the personalities behind Mr. Getbig made it a hit.

Kiwiol - you're a big dude; props. I gather you're 5'8', how heavy are you in the 1st series of pics? I can't see many good shots of the wheels. I suspect if you dieted down you'd look really good

Herc - Good upper body from the front, I think your back and legs (leg photo in the other thread) are behind in development compared to chest & arms.

BabyHerc didn't even diet for the last Mr.Getbig, but he is a serious competitor and looks great when in shape

True Adonis is supposedly leaner, but I don't think his conditioning was bad in the first place, if he loses more fat & muscle without working on his deficiencies (i.e. legs), I doubt he will win

Alexx has made some good improvements, especially in the legs, just looking at the pics posted vs. BillyGuns

Daddywaddy has withered away.

If Bast worked his legs as hard as his upper body, he'd be a serious threat.

Herc,
You look great.  You should slap on some tanning oil and snap pics - you would do damage TODAY if you entered.

Livewire,
Whateva didn't cheat - the rules said nothing about WNBF or any other pros.

I'm entering the Mr getbig.

Cheers mate. I'm about 220 in those pics and perhaps 215 or so in the clip that I took late last year / early this year. I'm 31. And yeah, I'm somewhere between 5'8" and 5'9"

Bast only takes M1T, so he's basically natural.  ::) ::)

DW is only on 400mg test, 250mg stanozolol, cocaine, weed and pizza, that's natural according to the gh15 rules.

Wow man you look great.

the thing is noone will be better "prepared" than Anus, last year he by his own admission took over 800 photos!!

Too easy right he obsessed with it for days..camera angles lightings exaggerated poses shadows photoshopping them a bit as well.

the guy who takes the best pics will win unfortunately hopefully some of you guys will put some effort into the photos and tan and posing to show off your physiques because anus has the worst genetics we have ever seen and if he is truely 15 lbs lighter than last year he'll be in the 150's and look like a tree limb.

Both Bast and daddywadders have been good sports about it. They congratulated whateva and were cool with the results.

Pretty much only one guy who couldn't live with the results. 8)

Bast were fcuked by his calves and shitty posing, otherwise he would probably have gotten 2nd.

-Hedge

True that. He has to learn to pose and give the illusion that he's wider. All his poses accentuated his narrowness.

Yeah and think about this:  This year the title's gonna mean industry celebrity.  For the first "real" time.  So anyone motivated enough to win the title should be motivated enough to show their face, 'cause hey, that's just gonna be a part of it.
