5 days out first NPC show Advice?

[wes]

That is what I am saying not saying I am going to take the open but over 40 or true novice I should be ok

 I have buns but not eating them which is upsettig as they look good

What dedication to sacrifice hamburger rolls.........I don`t think I could be that hardcore. 

I`d hate to see you bulky and GH free and have to do an actual 16 week prep............you`d give up in 2 days.

[webstar]

Also Brian for perfect peaking follow Momo's protocol.

Start (ALDACTONE/Spirinolactone) Today until Saturday while carbing up with foods  high amounts of potassium...Raisins, Banana and lots of beans.

Stop water 1-2 or even 3 days if you can.

if you are thirsty eat apples or make apple sauce no water with Aldactone + Aldactazide...

if you have a source inject potassium the night before

Howard,

As a former competitor and judge, do you think judges mark down people that don't know the basic poses during the afternoon prejudging?  I would think not having a clue would be a sign of disrespect, no?

I did only one show (back in the 90s) and prejudging seemed to matter most.  The placing didn't change at all after the night show concluded.

1.At npc shows, the places and class winners are determined at the prejudging.

2. You only judge what you see on stage in front of you.
If a guy can't pose or assumes awkward positions, it hurts his look and he might get placed lower.
The judges are looking back/forth at everyone,  just stand rock solid still and hold the damn pose.

3. Whatever he weighs in at will determine his class in the open.

Fixed it for you.

LOL, nice touch,  BUT, awkward posing never helps...even  in the hotel room

Ok but I will less of a fool in the light heavy class yes? I can cut down to 198.5 friday and then carb load for saturday? I mean if I do make the 198.5 after dehydrating myself and not eating much do I then eat and fill out for saturday or will that smooth me out

Who said posing, lol.

[IroNat]

You cant afford chicken breasts for $1.80 a pound?

Just do whatever you want.....you`re in good shape.

Good luck.

$1.80/lb?

Outrageous!  Highway robbery!

[Bevo]

That is what I am saying not saying I am going to take the open but over 40 or true novice I should be ok

Also I don't have chicken breast I have burgers so prepping on burgers and I have buns but not eating them which is upsettig as they look good

You can always buy kfc and Popeyes chicken breast, just peel the skin off and it should be ok for prepping

Thought you said you are going to win the show with ease and get the sword? You cannot doubt yourself now, that’s not the mindset

Also remember to scream loud when you pose

[michael arvilla]

Start documenting this shit! (Bring getbig along for the ride) have your girl take pics and videos of the weigh in/pre- judging the finals etc ) …. Might be the only time you ever do all of this shit!  .. LFG!

If you look great do nothin....if you look flat carb up a bit... I like baked potatoes (yes eaten cold or microwaved but made a day or 2 ahead),and a few rice cakes with natty PB.....keep an eye on your condition......dont spill over......dont pig out and drink just a bit of water.

You should have loaded up on water a few day before, then slowly cut it back over a few days time, then stop drinking completely if you look good just sip a bit or eat an ice cube or two.

You actually dont have enough time to manipulate your water intake but you can at least do your best.

If you look dry and hard on the morning of show day..... I would do nothing just a bit of water and a small meal after pre-judging.

Last minute tricks like shitloading and the like, usually fuck you up.

[Taffin]

Squeeze the floor with your toes and flex them hard.................... ..always start the pose this way so you dont forget to flex the quads cuz it` a very common mistake even among experienced competitor.

I told you what to eat and you want sushi with rice.

You asked for a critique, then asked for advice and just disregarded anything and everything anyone suggests to you.

Listen to others to learn....you did zero contests before and 5 days is ridiculous enough but dont just eat any fucking thing......eat what a person on a contest prep diet would eat.

I hope you place....I really do,,,,, but in the same vein I hope you learn that you aren`t the greatest thing since sliced bread......humble yourelf cuz the other contestants surely will.

POSE POSE POSE....THEN POSE SOME MORE.

Yeah, it's a bit late now, but this

My first show, I couldn't believe how winded I was from just grinding it out.  I was trying to make up everything I'd missed in my prep by trying to be the hardest 'flexer' on stage (oh brother)

Second time around, I practised for 6 weeks - much better - and it built my confidence too - remembering little things helps you feel less of a naked d1ck on stage


Good luck!

(Just imagine the fallout if he wins FFS!  )

Posing gets tough especially if you are in the call outs with a ton of guys in your class...............quit e the workout.

Learn to look relaxed while flexing and do not shake.....posing harder until you end up shaking is not a good thing and doesn`t make you look harder it just make you look like a novice

The Excaliber is always a tough contest................a lways !!

No novice winner is getting a sword trust me on that......have confidence but dont be overconfident one thing about competing is that you never know who`s gonna` show up.

Those sword cost the promoters more money than a statue or a "bowling" trophy as I like to call them.

They dont just hand them out to anyone.

[wes]

Fuck the sword get to posing and just hope you place.

What's alcohal? What's Voiodka?
