very happy how I looked. I need better conditioning in my hams/butt
I am not in the fitness world so its pure hobby for me and I had a blast prepping, posing and competing. gotta have fun doing it and living the dream. I could have been beaten that dude. I think he was 6'5'' he was 2-3 inches taller than me
I was 222lbs at weigh ins
the show was moved to PHX from LV (my home base) which was awesome.
Im more into anti aging/beauty then being swole/jacked so prep was pretty simple and painless.
time to get rehab, clean up/clean out
-
You look great bro! Nice job all the way round.
-
Good job, Tres! Looking healthy!

Yep! Also - nice to see someone who takes the gym seriously, but also puts health and aesthetics over everything else.
To each their own, but I'm of the mindset "Health is wealth."

Great look and great assessment of areas for improvement.

Looks great Taco!
Would rather look like that than the other dude.

Great job TTC!

Nice job man.
You are ripped in the upper body, it's funny how some people still hold water in other areas.
-
fdb like a boxer or mma fighter lol
-
Good showing. Very nice legs and arms.
However I don't know if your real identity is known on here or not, but by posting those pics you've pretty much exposed it. Might wanna delete..
-
Great showing!

Ha ha ;) (Especially without the "warning" message).
Taco, good thing you didnt have this Lat-Beast in your class, would have been lights-out for you buddy.

look great pal, just need to work on the relaxed poses , and locking your knees throws your shape off a bit, just look at the shape the other guy makes, a lot more to look at, sweeps and curves attracts the eye
-
Looking phenomenal, bro. Congrats on the hard work.
-
It’s been so long since we had bodybuilding content on here that I can’t remember if I’m supposed to
jerk off compliment him, criticize him, or call Shizzo a homo?

That was it. The locking of the knees. I knew something looked off.

Well done! You looked really good.

TRES, Do you have any idea regarding the USA winners today?
And what's the brand-name of that mineral water that you mentioned someplace above. Is the tap-water bad in AZ?
And what advantage does mineral water have over decent tap water?
I believe our tap water here in Vegas is good, but I think we'll be running out soon as the Coolorado seems to be getting lower each year. The last time I checked there has been a 100 foot drop in the lake over the past 20 tears or so... which is an interesting subject to talk about on this GetBig Board under an appropriate topic.
Are you planning to compete again in the near future?
-

i have received pay checks and 1099s from American Crew hair modeling back in the day so nice hair is so important haha ;D

no idea today on the USAs. I am busy working at the moment so couldn't make it
I drink zero sugar or flavored drinks (no diet sodas either) so I found mineral waters are a great way to enjoy good tasting drinks without adding junk. perrier water etc etc over anything else.
plus I drink zero alchol unless on special events (holidays, weddings, Bday parties) ill order perrier water at bars/resturants
no I will not compete in 2021. too busy with other things but Its nice to be "off"
I will complete in 2022

taco did you use keto for this show or high carb this time around

taco did you use keto for this show or high carb this time around
I did a 18 week prep (bulk then cut)
I got up around 238lbs which was a diet full or rice, potatoes, oats, chicken, fish, steak (standard stuff) then I went keto the last 6 weeks
I could have gone up to 245lbs but I would have never lost the weight...
then did an epic carb up the last few days
Burger fries, eggo waffles night before
pancakes, morning of
pizza and peanut butter/rice cakes before hand
now that i am off and done. I will be on keto 80% of the time.
2021 = I be very lean around 210lbs. i love being lean, plus Im single so Its easier when you are lean
guys.....all classes from open to mens classic
MASS WON EVERY CLASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! size fuckin matters

1. You were smart to avoid the endless wt gain trap and came in with damn good conditioning.
2. You're pretty big dude yourself ( ht and wt !) and yes, mass will matter, even in classic .
The sport is called bodyBUILDING after all ;)
The best thing with classic is , you can only be so big for every ht ( ht/wt ratios)
3. I think I pseak for many here when I say you looked dame impressive on stage for your experience and are a great source of motivation

You can speak for me anytime, Howard. I totally agree with you on this. There are so few really dedicated bodybuilders and lifters on Getbig that anyone who is in the game big enough to put themselves up against others in a competition is someone to be congratulated, even if they don't take 1st prize....or even place.
Heck, anyone who has the guts to post a photo of themselves on Getbig is a brave person.

How tall are you? Based on the photos you posted, I never would have guessed that you were over 200 lbs. Damn, you must be solid as a rock.
-
i have received pay checks and 1099s from American Crew hair modeling back in the day so nice hair is so important haha ;D
You have nice hair for sure. And I thought real hair too - no doubt about it. On top of that, I thought you were among the genetic lucky few whose hairline is impervious to the forces that cause the hairlines of so many men to recede like a retreating army, resulting in the gradual effects of male pattern baldness to emerge.
And I must say - I was rather taken aback when you said you took preemptive measures starting at age 23 to prevent losing your hair by using hair-preserving formulations to ensure you would keep your hair as you aged.
So here's my question: do you know for a fact that you even needed to use anything to keep your hair? Not all men lose their hair, you know. TOOTING MY OWN HORN TRIGGER WARNING: I am turning 39 next week, and I haven't lost a single follicle of hair so far. I'm still gaining new follicles on my face at a slow pace, and on my back at [luckily] an extremely slow pace [I have 17 hairs on my upper back - up from 3 in 2003, which means I grow one new upper back hair just a little over once a year]. I actually think that my hair is still growing thicker, darker, and even sprouting new follicles here and there as I get older.
My Question to you tres, is:
Do you know for certain that you actually needed to apply hair preservation formulations in order to keep your hair? Did you have older male siblings whose hair shared the same form yours did at the same age, and they eventually started to lose their hair, leading to believe you needed to take preemptive measures to maintain the svelte and aesthetic hair that you possess today?
Or did you just assume that since one of your friends was losing his hair and managed to prevent further hair loss before it became noticeable, that using the same protocol as him would allow you to keep your thick head of hair too?
I'm only asking because it doesn't even look like you needed any help to keep your hair, and I don't understand what reasons you had to consider yourself a candidate requiring hair preservation products in the first place.
Did you already explain this in a post I may have missed?
I guess I'm just surprised that you would need any sort of help, hair-wise. You hair is one of your better features, and I always thought your quality hair was just the product of good genetics. Although that aside, my friend only now at 39 has shed enough hair to consider treatments, but he says that the hair products which would help him maintain the hair he has now [or even grow some back, apparently] have side effects that affect a man's hormones, which is why he doesn't want to go that route.
Instead, as of this summer, he is now bald with a beard. I still think he has enough hair to hold off on shaving the rest bald for a few years yet...but he likes the bald with a beard look, so all the power to him.
But in your case, I can't help but wonder why you think you need any help with your hair, and if you actually had any evidence of that when you initially started taking hair preservation measures.

I am around 6'2'' and the guy next me was 6'5'' (guessing)
Im a big dude but I do my best to stay on the trim side. I could be 250lbs + if i wanted to go the mass route. I can eat 6-7 meals no problem daily but aint my thing
my arms are 19s and my thighs are 27s (yes they need more cuts)
I will hit up the hot yoga 5x per week to slim back down to around a lean 210lbs
yes I have the taking a shit roelly winkler face here :) and this was after a spray tan

Mass won every single class for mens open and mens classic.
you must "getbig" :)

So here's my question: do you know for a fact that you even needed to use anything to keep your hair? Not all men lose their hair, you know. .
my best friend who was older than me when I was in my early 20s was loosing his hair (regular guy, not on AAS) and he was freaking out about it and he told me to get rogaine ASAP.
so I took his word and used Rogaine every so often then started using it daily, my dermatologist also gave me the nod that rogaine is a good idea as well so I have been using it 1-2x a day for years.
before I competed in men's classic I was always in great shape (auditioned for the Chippendales 2x) and did some other things.
here is me before I competed more a lean look (which I will go back to now)
I believe its best to be very trim in the off season then "grow into the show" so next prep I will grow up around 240lbs. again mass wins in our current era
-
8)..look great lighter too sick quads.

when you hit a double bicep like that there isnt a lot that catches the eye, its down and across, try making some shape and flow, think Lee Labrada even Kai Greene, tilt the elbows, open your feet, its easy to flex you thighs without locking your knees, start your pose from the toes up, imagine grabbing the floor with your feet and work upwards, that way you wont forget to flex the whole body.
Practice in a mirror , get the pose right and then close your eyes and feel where your body is in your mind, after a while hit the poses with your eyes shut then look when you think you are in the right place, you can keep making adjustments and it will get to the point where you can hit the poses just right by feel and not look

Sound advice,,your a good poser and come off well in your contest pics...

Bbers like Sergio Olivia who have mass in the lats to waist and cannonball arms,could get way standing straight on no tricks,gaspari and mentzer and even Arnold would tilt or turn slight to create even illusion.

Really good build, but as mentioned, the poor posing position robs your entire torso of its size and development. I’m not being an ass, just saying you busted your ass to get a great build and you’re not displaying it as well as you could.
-
one of the better posers from back in the day,
Great build and poser fluid transitions,in jersey and even till today vinny galanti is great poser does clinics on it as well.

Next up is the OLYMPIA but I am unable to make an accurate guess this year simply because there are too damn many divisions to keep up to date with (Physique, Classic, Bodybuilding, and all the women's divisions) and to the best of my knowledge I've only met/know one contender (Logan Franklin) who I believe will dominate the pro physique or Pro classic.
Didn't you train with him at one time, Tres!?

You look fucking fantastic. My only criticism is something you've heard a million times before: calves, calves, calves.
What are you doing for them now? What does the rest of your training routine look like? I vaguely recall that you of the low to modest volume/high intensity paradigm.
I was gifted with big, lowly-inserted calves, so I'm not the guy to offer advice about bringing them up. But IIRC, Pellius built his to well past spec with a brutally effective method. (Honorable Pellius, are you reading this?) Hopefully he will remind us what that entailed :)

thank you
yes my calves are not getting the attention they need. i loathe training calves ::) love barbell squats and I will hit calves more in this coming year
training split (5x per week) 1 bodypart then rotate a bodypart on day 6 and day 7 is posing class
Monday chest
tuesday legs
wednesday shoulders
thursday back
friday arms
then saturday I will hit a spot i need to work (example would be shoulders or chest with super high reps)
sunday is posing
diet was high calories, high carbs, proteins to bulk up to around 235lbs, and I was training very hard and heavy (6-8 reps) and forced reps when i was big and full. I could have gone up to 245lbs but I never would have been able to drop it in time
then last 6 weeks was a keto diet, cut back on the intensity and increased the reps
going forward for 2021, I will train a standard split, go keto and be very trim/lean as I will not complete in 2021 at all, goal is to look like a million bucks (trim and lean) and be healthy (including hot yoga and fasting) and work on weak bodyparts (calves, tighten hamstrings, bigger chest and lower abs) rehab all shoulders, elbows and hips as well
then see where things are in 2022.

Good job, my German bother!

Pic 1 guy next to you doesn’t have classic look to him,2nd pic that guy did like you more suited.
Agree. How's he more classic? It's not open bb standards. His waist is way bigger than Tacos. Taco has better hair too. LoL I'm only half joking. Being a good looking dude seems to help in classis. Taco should have won.

That's rediculous. The whole point of classic was to get away from that thinking. Not the end of the world. The small snapshot I see of your build in pictures you have better potential to do well than him. He can't make his waist any smaller structuraly but you can get bigger

yep size every time. no big deal and yes I am excited for making gains in the next 12-24 months before I step on stage and really nail my posing too. its a long disciplined work in progress which Im looking forward too.
next time I compete I will do the team universe or lesser pro qualifier (path of least resistance)
