[image] After reading the prep logs of so many outstanding competitors on this site, it’s time to hop in the pool. I am prepping ultimately for the WNBF Hercules contest, a super pro-qualifier and a very competitive contest, the oldest natural show in the country. I’m hoping to earn my pro card in…

Down to 154.6, down a pound from last week with this new method and couldn’t be happier with how it’s working out.
