My head is a thousand miles from the gym and my responsibilities, but it doesn’t matter. I’ve got too much to do and people relying on me. It’s time to be the man i need to be, not the one i am right now. Learning to master myself.

Normal gym was closed so i shamelessly trained in the outdoor crossfitters gym. At least it was only 92 out
It’s much overdue but ive started practicing posing. I’ve got a lot to improve on… might start posting vids once i get more practice in. Need to find a way to easily keep my face blurred in video.
Could you start showing the “relaxed” front, side, and back poses as you will be doing in round 1 of the prejudging?
This is the first look that the judges have of you compared to the rest of the contestants. You want to look as impressive as you can.
The relaxed posing pics you have been posting are not going to leave the judges with a good first impression. The initial “callouts” of round 2 (comparison posing) are based on the head judge’s first impression.
Yes.
My dumbass thought “relaxed” meant literally relaxed.. like no flexing or anything. This is how I’d look if i were alseep standing up.
I’ve been keeping the check in pictures the same so i have a baseline to gauge progress, but I’ll be doing my quarter turns and mandatories when i start posting my posing.

We’re trying to add some volume to the sessions. Targetting 4x sets per exercise, 4x exercises per muscle, with lower intensity.
Working my way up to that volume.
We think high 180’s, but its hard to tell honestly.
6 months ago I would have said there’s no way I’ll ever see under 190 without losing muscle, now I’m not sure
I think high 180s is a long shot. Most of my friends that compete at my height are 160s and you’re like 5;10 right? Prob mid 170s would still look thick.
