I finally did a show (A natural show)

U got to be kidding me right ?....u preach me about contest prep and the amount of muscle u can loose , never did a show , never used aas .....wtf are u doing in this conversation ?...no offence but u should stick to just going to the gym. The point I made about jerry I believe u cannot understand.

I never did "preach" about contest prep or the amount of muscle one can lose; perhaps you're confusing me with the other guy that was posting to you.  Anyhow, the only point that I was trying to get across (which I've pointed out and emphasized in a previous post) is that I wish you would not be so quick to question people's character, especially someone like Jerry who doesn't seem to have any reason to hide anything and has been more than open about many facets of his life both present and past.  He seems to be a good, honest guy who has acknowledged his past mistakes and can take constructive criticism well.  He started this thread to share his first-time contest experience with us.  We should be congratulating him and thanking him for sharing what he went through to get there.  I'm sure you would like the same if you had outlined your contest prep and let us in on how you busted your butt to get there.  The good thing about you Sevastase is that you certainly are passionate about the sport.  All winners in any type of sport or other aspects of life have that same passion; the trick is to focus it in the right direction.  Best of luck to you in your future endeavors, in all seriousness.

You look like Keith in contest shape.

Uhhh........thanks??    Oh well, like I said, I'm a work in progress.  For only 4 months back hitting the weights after a 7-year layoff, I'm about where I expected to be as far as my progress.  I'm in it for the long haul now.

Best of luck to Keith by the way.  If I'm having trouble losing a few inches off of my waist, I cannot even imagine the task that Keith is undertaking.  I wish him all the best; we should be pulling for him.
