Mike & Laura....Congrats.  Looks like this show was tougher based on some of the other competitors you posted.

My only complaint.......


Laura....I like your hair longer.   :'(

Mike, You look way tighter.
But not fuller. What did you do?

I wonder how Laura ended up.
She was certainly ON.

(Like the judges said.....i just need to "fill out more"/add more muscle to my frame)





You got an IFBB Pro working right beside you. Have Marty put you on a leg & back routine & follow it to the tee. You have no excuses at your next show. From the front Mike you looked pretty good,but you've got to get some size on those legs esp the hams. Your ass needs to be crawling out of the gym on leg day. You cannot just rely on Chest ,shoulders & arms. No excuses, just do what you got to do. I don't want to hear what your gonna do, I want to see you do it.

Laura ended up in 7th place  (she looked great!)
Larry ...your right! (plan on exactly that!!!!)

i was dead-dog tired/drained and should not have let it show on stage! (in this pic you can clearly see that)
every show is a learning process for me (only been competing for a few years now)

Well, she looks best in those pics at least. Congrats!

What did you do? Diuretic?

Well pick Marty's brain as often as possible, follow it too a tee & I guarantee you will start moving up. Laura looked great (esp considering what she's been thru) but put her on the stairmaster 25min a day & her lower body will match the upper in no no time. Laura has a really good frame on her, just need to dial that lower body & she's there.

Laura getting onstage after her health issues is a victory in itself. Don't listen to the haters, do your homework & if you improve from show to show thats all you really need. Placing are in the judges hands, but if you make improvement & you know 100% that you have made improvements(esp in weak areas) that's all that matters. Sooner or later the judges can't ignore you. The only comp. you have is with yourself.

 That most muscular is your best shot, Arvilla...


 Laura needs to be in lighter colors. The deep purple doesn't suit her well. She'd stand out more and look better in green or even teal.

I can pick out every felon in those pics.
all those drugs, risking everything you may have by engaging in illegal
felonious activities and not even a plastic trophy.
pathetic

Another great effort Mike. Congratulations...You've made some excellent improvements and Laura....wow, just so amazed after all she's been through to be able to get into that kind of shape. You're both very inspiring..I now have no excuse not to be in top shape.
