Author Topic: Should I just pack it in as a comp BB? (Read 2925 times)

Howard · « **on:** June 17, 2009, 06:43:42 PM »

I compted in lots of shows from 1978 - '95.
Now at age 50 I am chunky, perma bulker with a stocky body and bushy butt.
I have to take viagra to get it up

. I have a prescription for Androgel (HRT) because my balls have dried up. My lower back is arthrtic and my six pack had grown into a full keg. My current diet is more Homer Simspon approved than NPC contest prep.
I recently had to start wearing reading glasses, and useing a nose/ear hair trimmer as well.

On the good side, I still have a full head of hair and don't have to get up 3x a night to piss.
My strength is as good or better than ever and I "think" I have more muscle mass now than in younger days.

I keep having this delusion that I can diet for a contest , again and get back up on stage.
I am not sure if anyone needs to see me up there however. It might not be pretty, even if I get leaner.
Last yr I saw a guy almost 80 who compted and wore a depends undergrament under his 1955 trunks. Hmmm, I thought, hiow bad could I look after this? $:-\$
Thoughts/feedback?

I figure if I up it to once EVERY week, I will be twice as likely NOT to do it.

I think you've got one more in you; cycle up one last time!

I hear where you're coming from. There's times when I consider going in a show again, even though it's been about 15 years, only because I know it will force me to stay on a strict diet and get ripped again. I think, however I have the discipline to get in top shape again at 46, without going in a contest. Maybe you should just get in shape for yourself....not to have to compete. Just look great so when you go to the pool, or take your shirt off in front of a chick, you can feel proud and confident.

No offense, but please shut the motherfuck up. I think it's safe to say no one hear gives a rat's ass whether you live or die, much less if you "compete"

That is actually a good idea. On a serious note, my current goal is running more nad getting my wt and waist line down.
