He has got a bad case of shingles on his left shoulder, forearm and hand. He is in a great deal of pain and it looks like he will not be in the show! it is to bad as he looked great on Sunday when I trained with him. On Sunday the rash was pretty bad and he said tonight that it has gotten much worse since then! Here are some pics we took on Sunday. if you look close you can see the shingles rash starting. I wish him all the best as I know he is very disappointed!
-
get well soon brother!
-
Speedy recovery !
on a side note, it is strange that every good competitor of the PDI suddenly drop out ;D
-
Shingles??? His immune system must be really weak..thats basically the only way you get shingles, its your old chicken pox virus in you that has found a way to rejuvenate itself in a person when that person is under tons of stress or has a weaken immune system...hmmmmm They can last anywhere from a couple of weeks to a couple of months..
-
He'll be back in time for the NPC Nationals.
Perhaps he'll be able to have an impact in the heavies there.

women get them after they give birth sometimes. Maybe TJ just had a baby? ;D

I heard if you're bald photosynthasis creates more test in your body.

Are you saying that if shave my head and eyebrows off I could theoretically be 0.15% more synergistic without the aid of a celltech stack?
-
Yes. Also thank god a lot. It works for teh blacks.

I spoke to TJ yesterday on the phone.....all is a go for the NOC.

It would be a lethal blow to DeMilia if Lee Priest were offered some guest posing contracts through the IFBB.
Also, if the PDI loses Galanti back to NPC, that could be the final blow to it all. Who wants to pay $100 to see TJ Schoenborn beat a bunch of guys who have problems placing in NPC contests?
If Demilia would've had the money of McMahon, being able to sign athletes to salaries, or have that money for prize in the competitions, it would be a different ball game.

As it turned out, both Galanti and Schoenborn are out.
Lee?
I dunno.
Sami? I highly doubt it. My bet is that he's got an invitation to the Arnold's waiting for him.
If Sami competes in the PDI, I'm really impressed with DeMilia.

Looks like he is in good condition. Just drop the water under the skin and he's ready to go. I hope he is able to bear the pain and compete. Hope its a mild case.
TJ just missed his IFBB pro card at the N.A.'s by one spot. He won his class and was second overall.
-
I've seen him post over @ Mayhem, he seems like a cool guy. Good luck with the recovery bro!
peace

TJ was the ONLY guy that I was worried about, after talking it over with Chick and hearing Shawn's views, I could not compete against guys who could not crack the top 10 in the NPC Nationals....after I have placed top 5 in 6 out of 9 Nationals.
What a blessing it was to injure my bicep....
-
Let's wait until we hear from TJ.
The rumor mill has been hard at work lately.
-
No one could crack top 10 at NPC nationals? I don't know about all the European guys...I'm sure there is some real unseen talent that can be brought in, but TJ, Sami, yourself, Frey and Lee Priest (obviously) are top national level guys. I think if I prepared differently (like most others), that I'd have a shot at getting out of the unplaced group at nationals or USA, at least place somewhere decently at jr. nats. To compare the talent of the IFBB to the PDI is certainly a different level (besides Lee). The organization has to start somewhere and hope to build.
With that said, Vinny, you do whats best for you. If you think you can get that IFBB pro card this year, I agree, that is the ultimate.

It could've been a good thing though.
Had a group of bodybuilders like: Darrem, Melvin, Cicherillo, Garrett Allin (sp?), Rusty, Dave Henry, George Farah et al, been contracted...
Then it would've been entirely different.
Then there would've been same quality but different looks.
And you could've fit in.
But PDI currently looks like a regular NPC contest with hopefully good production.
You can't wrap turds in silver lining.

It's a given about LEE, and TJ, but the rest of the US guys could not crack the top 10 in the NATIONALS, thats why they are doing the PDI.....the European guys are very good, they WILL place top 5

Why shave the eyebrows? Looks weird.

Looks to me like he has alopecia (partial or in this case complete body hair loss).
-
I added to my post above Vinny. I see what your saying overall though. Hopefully, after the first show, they can build more good competitors.
I hope TJ does compete. Keep us updated if you hear anything.

Why would you start a rumor like this?

Because people will think he is just PDI bashing if he uses he real handle....Chick

Hope you're feeling better soon TJ. You look great in the photos.
Try putting flaxseed oil on your shingles. Works like a charm

Every week it's a new rumor. Someone is nervous.
Oh, and my roof has shingles too. Can someone start a rumor that I will be pulling out of the Mr getBig? Thanks in advance!

1) Go see an MD and get some acyclovir and steroids (no, not AAS, prednisone) otherwise, get ready for herpes neuralgia....the MOST intense pain you will ever feel in your life.
2) Ask that physician to do a workup on you, a young "healthy" 30 something year old should not look like a cancer patient and develop immunosupressed disease states like herpes zoster.
3) Please wipe down the equipment after you use it.

I have a complete workup done every 6 months! All is fine with my blood work. I have alopecia that is why I have no hair. And I did go see an MD yesterday and I am on an anti viral drug right now! But hey thanks for your concern!!!

Well, that is fortuitous in a way. I guess you had a choice between bb and swimming. Good choice.
/looking at the glass half full. :)
