I’ve been thinking on it for some time, and I’m going to compete.
Just bought my NPC card and I’m looking at a show on Oct 18th.
I’d like to compete in Mens Classic Physique, but we’ll see as we get closer to the show.
I dont know shit about competing, NPC categories, or anything, so this will be a learning experience.
I’ll be starting a new training log for the competition prep. Stay tuned, I’ll link it here once I’ve made it.
It’s probably going to get overshadowed by news of the competition, but i got to be the hero this morning.
I woke up to the sound of my wife’s scream.
I yell across the house asking if everything is okay.
… no response
I yell again “What is it?!”
Wife says “THERE’S A SNAKE IN THE HOUSE”
“Like a big one??”
“Yeah!”
So I’m up, rush to get my redneck snake protection gear on (beltless jeans and cowboy boots - no shirt)
“Where is it?”
“I picked it up thinking it was one of [our daughter]'s toys and then it did the snake tongue thing so i screamed and-”
“Babe!
… where is it?”
She points over to it and its this little baby gopher snake with a head smaller than the tip of your pinky.
I threw a towel over it, grabbed it by the back of the head and gave it a new home outside.
So what I’m trying to say is that i saved the girl from a dragon.
Anyways, training stuff.

Working on bringing up hams so I’ve added more sets to leg day and I’ll do a hamstring exercise on a non-leg day as well.
I look forward to your log with you competing, great news and i think you needed a goal to work towards (my opinion but our log has read like you needed that).
Also you badass snake wrangler!!! You are basically an alive Steve Irwin!
Cyber Security is massive all of a sudden, we really struggle to get cyber people in so it could be a great move (although i know that the UK and US economies are different).
