I agree that he woulda finished third to Whatever and Adonis in the getbig I. He definitely would get killed by Whatever, but probably challenges Adonis for 2nd. With some wheels though, Honour will be one of the favorites at getbig III.

alexxx is the man to watch for getbig 3.

he would have won getbig 2 if he'd dieted for 2 weeks.

It would have been really close between him & Adonis.  Maybe we'll have a Mr GetBig "Legend" contest where at the 5 yr mark we get the top guy in each year and vote the best of the best.

Interview conducted on Oct 27, 2008 with Mr Getbig II Champion "Honour"
By 240


What is your height/weight/age?
5'9 79kg for the comp down from about 84kg, age 32

How long have you been training?
Just got back into training abut 6 months ago after a few years off due to work and family demands. It's the kind of thing where you wake up one day and say, "To hell with the long work hours for a little extra cash, i'm sick of being ordinary, bring back the IRON!!!"

When you initially saw the pics, did you think you had it won?
After seeing the pics I knew it would be all on what the judges were after, I had the condition and shape but I was way down on size compared to the other guys. I was thinking of all those times when size wins over shape and cuts, ala Jay always smokes guys like Dexter lol.

Which competitor impressed you the most?  The least?
Tough one, all the guys had some strong and weak points. Alexx has great wheels but could probably use a little more mass up top to balance it out, but lookout if that happens (oh and he needs to use some prize money to buy a razor lol). Neo was just solid all round, with better condition he may have smoked me. Waddy has great mass and was in good condition, for him I think it is all about his presentation and how he shows what he has, he was my early pic to win it. Rowdy could dominate this thing in a couple of years, he has all the tools as they say, just needs time. JJ was just way out of shape, I would have to say I was least Impressed with his condition, as an in shape JJ may have really shook things up.

Where do you think you would have placed in the Mr GetBig I?
In the MrGetBiG 1 I think I would have most likely placed 3rd behind Whateva and Adonis, but I think it might have been quite close. Give me a year or 2 back in the gym and I expect to be able to take it too them though lol.



How long did you diet for the show?
I dieted for around 8 weeks in total, I didn't really get tough though until the last 2 weeks. Next time around I will start out at 10 weeks or so and get real tough over the last 3-4 weeks and see how that goes.

What was your precontest diet like?
Tbh my diet was quite simple, I didn't count calories or anything along those lines, I just tried to make sure I was eating around 20-30 grams of good clean Protein every 3 hours. I kept the Fat and Carbs very low in these meals as well at around 10grams of each max. I made my meals before work and just ate by the clock. Chicken Breast, Eggs, Tuna and Protein shakes in water were generally what I ate. I followed a lot of advice from the boards and from guys like Jrod etc. I also drank a lot of water which seemed to work well for me. It's hard to do at the start but once you get the hang of it it's not so bad, you just have to try to keep a water bottle in your hand all day and just keep on sipping. It also tends to help with some of the food cravings that start to drive you mad in the last couple of weeks.



What's your offseason like?  Do you get heavy?
I only had a short Offseason as I have not been back into it for that long. But I like to stick to the Basics, compound movements and free weights, and I feel that it is paying off as my chest, back and shoulders have been really adding bulk. As most people could tell I had been slacking on legs a bit and not really noticed until I cut up, and man what a wake up call. Since the comp I have been hitting my squats very hard and am already starting to see and feel a difference. I am wearing shorts all the time as well to remind myself every time I look in the mirror what needs to be done!

How are you going to spend the money?
I am going to be spending the money on Xmas presents for my kids, an Ipod for my little girl and a Nintendo Wii for my little boy. I will also buy the missus some nice clothes or something and take her out on the town and see where it gets me, she's pretty hot so I'll try get some pics to post on the forums....kidding. I will also be buying a few tubs of Protein Powder and some other Supplements like BCAA's etc that I have been wanting to try to help me progress.

Will you compete in the Mr GetBig III contest? 
Hmmm tough question, but atm I will have to say yes I will compete, but it just depends on If I feel I have made enough improvements to bring a better package and am able to call myself the "THUNDER FROM DOWNUNDER" and not "that little cut guy with no legs" lol........but yes I will compete again in the MrGetBig, it's a great contest and I think more people should enter!!!! Thanks again to MS, CQ and 240 for all the work they did on the show.
 


Props to Honour for the great win.  Looking fwd to a great contest when the Mr Getbig 3 rolls around!
