And so people know I do train calves too.

I didn’t even attempt any sort of peak week. All I did was eat some more carbs and less fat yesterday and kept my calories the same. No peak week training. I actually had a max squat and bench session yesterday and went and had a regular training session after pictures. Legs and arms are worn and desperately in need of my beach deload next week.

Just wanted to wish everyone else good luck, but I’m glad I’m done. Ready to start added in calories and getting back some better energy levels.

Congrats man, awesome job!

Well, disappointed with how this all turned out finding out the majority of your progress didn’t count in the voting, but it is what it is. Probably would have done things different if I’d known. Think I was probably taking this thing too seriously, because it bothers me more than it should. Probably should take a break for a bit.

You had arguably the best transformation of anyone (Top 3 for sure) so I wouldn’t let it sweet you too much.

Yeah, but that’s part of why it pisses me off. I think it was pretty clear some of the other guys were unaware that part of their progress was going to get chopped off either. I really thought I had a shot at it right up until I saw the pictures that got selected for my submission. Just wish I’d known a little earlier. It makes the ending a little bitter sweet.

Just got to remember this one was for me anyway. I’m a natty guy in my mid thirty’s with health issues, jobs, and a kid that got to cross something off my bucket list.
