there's no reason to bash Mike Arvilla. He's not obnoxious about himself like some other rug headed punks out there.

Just let him do his thing

CAN YOU TELL me sites to purchase music/voice over stuff for routines
recommendations for "posing oil"
anything else i might need

(what to pack in a gym bag for pre-judging and the evening show)

thanks CQq!@!!!

I would just get a DJ to do your music. Having a couple of professionally mixed songs w/sound effects adds a lot. Most DJ's will have all the sound effects and voiceovers etc. Get it done sooner rather than later and practice like mad. Smile when you hit your shots, make it look easy. Your best parts are your arms/delt..cheorograph the routine around that...lots of double bi shots etc.

Posing oil, as long as it not mineral based it will work. Some people use the special 'posing' ones they sell, which are normally sweet almond based. The Neutrogena oil is also used by alot of ppl [not the 'dry' one']. Jan Tana sells a posing oil that is popular. I would stay away from Pam if I was you...you feel so greasy

This sounds really gay - but here is a good tip. 2/3 weeks before the show get some fine sea salt and olive oil [yes...the stuff from the grocery store]. Mix it together like half and half. Use it to exfoilate your skin 3/4 times a week. Rub in on dry skin for like 5 mins a time. That will ensure you have the smoothest skin possible and just give it a 'good' look. Also and your tanning product will slide right on evenly. That exfoilating stuff they sell for bodybuilding is crap. That precise mix is what top spas use [and charge people $100 for no less] I own a fancy spa here, and we make a mint off it. Combine that with the fact that you should be able to get a good natural tan in FL, and your end tan should be great. Practice with the tanning product prior. Perfect color makes a huge difference. Pics may not show it - but up close at a show you can normally see all sorts of spots/lines etc on competitors.

Oh sorry to rant...but I hope you are not buying those cheap ass ready made trunks that come in like 5 colors that everyone has, and never fit quite perfectly

If you haven't ordered custom trunks hop on it now. They are not too expensive and add a nice touch.

Who here thinks it's irresponsible of Arvilla to be fuccking up his health with gear at his age, just to look like total dogshit?

Don't get me wrong, for a 40-something natural novice entering his first show, he looks okay.

But for someone who's been juicing since the first George Bush was in office, he looks terrible.

Is this Palumboism, maybe?

What makes you think he is juicing? I don't think he is.

well.................... .......what would ur advice be??

(seeing as it is my first show and all)

id like to do the open class,................but if im not ready ill understand

Do the Novice!
I remembner my first show, holy shit- There will be some TOUGH competition in the Novice, dont get me wrong, but the Open class is Usually REALLY GOOD...

You look good in those pics, keep it up and try to focus on diet and really sharpening your midsection. I was training abs every day, and practiced posing every day. I think flexing/training my abs every day really helped them come in sharp for the big day.

And start training those wheels dammit!

Good luck, there is no better feeling than your first show- give it 110%, and when you think about cheatin on your diet- ask yourself, "Are my competitors cheating on THEIR diets?" Made me not crave anything.

Practice your mandatory poses, with someone that knows posing and is watching you.

you came a long way. You have my nod. Good luck have fun, and enjoy!

Yeah presentation is very important during those mandatories...practise the mandatories, believe me...its TOUGH holding them for a while, you dont want to be up there cramping up and shaking.. I would go through all of them (with an expert watching) at least 2-3 times after my workouts..its cool when your all pumped

Mike,

You are an inspiration because of your great attitude. You are putting your ego on the line- you aren't afraid of putting up your photos and having the on line world critique them. That takes a lot of guts. And you don't hide behind a fake name, LOL.

I appreciate how you have documented your transformation over the weeks. Its great to see somebody show it can be done.

Great work so far!

His prison-weightlifter's physique may have come in handy when they went to shank him in the yard, or when scoring a punk or two, but it has absolutely NO PLACE on the outside. Anyways, the pipecleaner legs and the oddly shaped head will kill any chances of competitive success.

All the best,
