My pic looks great whether 1 guy showed up or a 100 but yes first show made some mistakes and came in too light and depleted. I will improve and come in fuller next time May even get some proper posing trunks. I think super heavy is a stretch will probably go as a full 225 but you never know may just go super to prove a point. And don’t worry the show I kind of have my eyes on should be a full lineup just need to pop up to 240 first and fill out a little in the Hams
Ok, I always said you have a decent physique and have been more then fair in my posts about you.
You only beat ONE guy in three different divisions and then brag about the medals.
That means you got last in 2 out of 3 divisions.
Nothing wrong with doing your best and still getting beaten on stage by others in a BB contest.
It's happened to me , Wes and many others posting here.
The problem is, the experience should make you more humble, modest and realistic now.
However, the impression I get , is you're more "full of yourself " with grand plans for future contests.
You ignored the contest prep advice from experience men like Wes and I .
Then , you posted what you did by losing rapid wt was foolish. That showed some honest, self reflection.
Despite this brief humility, you quickly resorted back to unrealistic goals in future contests.
You need to dominate via obvious win in a regional novice division , BEFORE you can do well in a national masters event.
I suspect you think I'm a "hater" now for posting this honest reply.
No, you don't need to tell me why I'm wrong or make some rambling defensive post.
I never made a personal insult attack against you .
Just suck it up like a man, train hard for a full year and compete in the SAME show next yr.
Win big in the masters 40 , post pics of your dominant win and that will prove your point.
Good luck
