Torn bicep. Right now all I want to be able to do is get past this bs. $:-\$

Tough luck buddy .

My rotary cuff is shagged , left knee is hanging on by a thread and I've never dieted for a show but if I can get to look half decent them I am in .
The Shawn factor swung it for me .

That would be the closest fought category .

more than almost anyone in pro BBing, shawn knows what it's like to be screwed for politics. I think he'll vote for the best man pictured, and also, he'll be able to more accurately judge summetry than most.

I'm shocked... Some are probably wondering why he should give a rats ass at this point. BS aside, I think this is good shit. Can't wait to see this happen.

This is a real bummer for me. I would never step on stage, but this is something I would like to do. It would be cool to have an actual goal to be shooting for. next year!

shawn keeps his name out there, puts a positive light on it, gives VYO's name a bump, and wins lots of goodwill that'll come in handy during the rampup to the Colo Pro next year. And he gets to have some fun with it.

we get an ifbb pro who has been robbed enough times to know the importance of judging fairly.

Right 240 you have got to be a good lad and not piss of the judges before the show . They will either kick you out or pack their bags .
As I said to you months ago - this competition could be really good for you and will help you appreciate what these guys have to go through to get on stage .
Turn the corner 240 and revel in this competition which you are helping to create . Now isn't this alot better than bitching about a pro .
See being good can be fun .

Sorry about the mini-preach.

no prob. i sometimes take on too many projects (4 a week sometimes) and i work 12 hours a day, so i turn into a prick and take it out on getbig, then regret it later. i'm taking a break from so many, and focusing more on family and getting in shape. I just dug up my Arnold Encylopedia which I plan on starting tonight.

Damn, this book is heavy!

With so little time to get into shape I am going to start the HIT tomorrow morning . I did sprint training once a week as I began to lose interest in boxing so I should enjoy that .
Diet should be easy as I don't like junk food but as we are only about 8 weeks away I am not sure what to expect regarding fat loss . Some of my mates compete but they are juicers and I am defintently not going down that route .

Just wondering, is this really enough time from official announcment to showtime??? Seems like a short time???

Oliver Klaushof · « **Reply #1216 on:** July 12, 2006, 08:47:55 PM »

Alexxx is confirmed as a competitor!

You know Sarcasm is just gonna say shit like "brutal legs", "monster 16 inch arms". Can't you find a better judge?

Haha, god I hope he does. That'd be hilarious.

andre_avigdor · « **Reply #1219 on:** July 12, 2006, 09:35:41 PM »

Isn't sarcasm either True Adonis or 240? Doesn't matter, both of them need a new and EXTREME training program ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!

what if someone brings in a ringer? My buddy makes True Adonis look like a piece of shit, serious. I would never do it(you guys all know I am not even big, anyway), but seriously have you guys thought about that?

he brings up a good point...i think competitors need to be approved first by the judges. a certain number of posts, or soemthing like that. so it really is MR. GET BIG.

What's to keep somebody from submitting old photos from 5 years ago or something, when they might be a fat sack of shit right now?

Also, what are the elegibility requirement? Can someone with a pro card enter? How about national competitors? Will there be a "Master's division"? If BB.com is willing to pay for it, can we add a master's division?

Let them hold up a copy of a newspaper from the day the photo is taken, and then 240 can verify that it's not photoshopped.

perhaps the final pics should involve a USA Today (or something readily available in your region that is easily identifiable thru website cover shots) with GetBig scribbled on it?

And top 3 in each category would have to submit LARGE jpegs in order to collect their prize

This way, there is no blurring or blending. Easy to do on a few small pics. If you have seven 1200x1600 pixel pictures, the experts here will catch any shadiness.

Will you be photoshopping a "virtual posedown"?
