Yeah, that'll happen.  Good job on losing the gut.  Listen, you'll never be your best at your first contest, so don't beat yourself up too much.  You're doing very well.  What is your training regimen?

Looks like you're losing a lot of weight.

What are you weighing Mike?

Honestly Mike....you're looking good is some areas....& in others....you look like you said...very flat.

Nutrition is a topic I have don't extensive knowledge about....but something looks like it's really missing.

Looking good, bro.  I know you're feeling like crap, because like you said you're looking flat.  Isn't it amazing what carbs do for your body.  The days that you carb up you'll look full and harder.  I remember those flat, sluggish days vividly, man.  I was so lethargic for my last show, I was in an accident just pulling out of my stinkin' driveway.  Everything felt like it was slo-mo. 

You're doing great, man.  Serious improvements.  Have you bitten Cheri's head off yet?  Sounds like you and I are alot alike in the sense that when you're depleted, you're more depressed than irritated.  At least when you're depressed you don't have to go back and apologize for snapping at people later.  lol

Awesome improvement.  Keep going.  Take a look at your legs in the pic below.  Don't lock them out like that.  Bring them closer together and bend your legs slightly.  It will bring out your sweep...

Trick for your hams to come out more on that pose...  press your left quad against your right hamstring to push it out..

heels about an inch or 2 apart, point toes out alittle................a nd pretend you are trying to push your knees outwards.  On the front shots.















did that make sense, that is hard to explain?
