You act like they just have bodybuilding contest every weekend in my local town. Newsflash there are only 2 contest worth entering Masters Nationals in July in PA or Masters USA in November which is all the way out in California. Anything else is just going to cost a fortune and be a waste of time shit show with 2 guys in the division and they will just declare the local guy the winner.
Enter the Southern States,it`s one of the top 10 contests in the USA,and it`s only in Florida,you live down south....I went there all the way from Massachusetts....or enter your N.C. State contest.....you`d get crushed.
How can you call any contest a shit show the way you placed in your first outing.
At the Masters Nats you wouldn`t even make the cut for top 5 unless only 5 guys were in your class but that wouldn`t be the case as the Over 40 is always stacked.
So continue your delusion by comparing pics and saying nobody looks better than you do.....pics are far different than being under the lights on stage....just an FYI !!
