I'm competing in a novice show this year and was looking for a good deal on posing trunks. I found a few places on the internet. Most of the trucks are around 30-40 bucks. Is this about average on price? Anybody know where I can get a better deal? Seems a little high to me for a pair of undies I'm going wear one time.

Speedo swim trunks at a sporting good store that caters to hard core swimmers.

Ah good idea. I didn't think of speedos. I'll check around. I'll probably have to order online though. Thanks.

You'll likely be competing with guys who are wearing custom designed posing trunks that show off their physique to best advantage. There are a lot of companies out there making posing suits, some are custom and some are off the rack. For a very personal fit, you might try these: http://store.musclepotential.com/ (http://store.musclepotential.com/). I have no idea what they cost, but if you expect to compete or even win, they are probably worth the price.

I want to win. I'll check it out thanks.

Just go to Ebay. Lots of trunks including Andreas Cahlung line. They ship fast.

If you want something off the rack that may not fit well, then Ebay is a possibility. Personally, if I am going to put all the time and work into building a competition ready body, I am not going to take a chance on something small but very significant like the posing trunks. Heck, even Arnold wrote a few paragraphs about the importance of well fitting posing suits in one of his books.

Never got a bad fitting suit yet and I've been buying trunks through the mail for almost 30 years. My first trunks were out of Flex magazine in 1984 from Andreas Cahling. My competitions now are with trunks I get on line. They are cheap and if you take care of them they last forever. Get a few sizes and colors. Over the years you will outgrow them and styles will change. There is a lot less material now than there was in the 80's. I went from a middleweight to a super heavyweight over the years but I still have most of my suits. Hand wash them and toss them in the dryer. Good luck.

Just so you know, the drying them in the dryer using anything but really low heat is hard on the fabric. Overtime it will lose all elasticity.

you know that i'm a newbie so i don't have personal experience with being "big" but what i've heard is that when fellas get real big they lose the female pull and start attracting the f@gs would you say that's true in general?

no its quite funny, the girls always said "dont get any bigger you are perfect now and will be to big". 20 poumds later they said the same thing and 10 pounds aftee that the same. But i have never been that big so i dont know how it is for the 5'8 270 pound dudes but i dont think thats to attractive for the chicks. The homo thing i dont know but i had a 65 year old schmoewho trained im the same gym after me lol. Even if he jist started to train and noticed that i was done And heading down to the showers he always followed me down to shower and waa really quick to take off hus own clothes but i always showered at home when he was there lol

were ya getting turned on :D :D :D
and yeah, my girl tells me that i don't need to add any more than 10 more kilos MAX and i've added 7 kilo so far, but the funny thing is once we start getting intimate she has a hard time keeping her hands off of my pecs and lats ;D
and truth be told, she didn't do those things when i was 7 kilos lighter, so go figure
also, i think females like it better when a fella isn't so fucking ripped, like 8-10% is better for them than 5-6%

You could get big to find out and then report back here on it.

I would think you could take care of yourself. It's not like the schmoe is going to attack you in the showers. Were you afraid of him? That's pretty funny when you think about it.
The gym I belong to has private stall showers so your schmoe friend might be disappointed if he hit the showers there. I shower at home unless I use the pool area at the gym.

Different strokes for different folks. Some women like men who are lean and others like them big and muscular. It is not different than some men liking women with big tits and ass, while others like me find athletic looking women more attractive.

if you show most females this pic they will say "gross" "too big" etc
but the thing is... if they would be next to him in the flesh they'd get pretty damn wet pussies me thinks ;)

yeah he was harmless and i didnt have a problem with him but the gym had only 2 showers that where side by side and it felt to awkward to shower beside a homo that had a crush on me

I can see where that might be a problem. After all, you wouldn't want him to get the wrong idea and think you were leading him on. I'd probably avoid the shower too in this situation.

Physique competitors try to hide there legs because they are too lazy to work them hence long shorts. Yes the Andreas Cahling line has been around awhile for real bodybuilders I got 3 of them.

Nasser sells them.
..oh wait
