thansk guys


what's your bodyweight now and how much do you plan to weigh come competition time?


My weight in those pics was 188 (5'5"). That was at 13 weeks out. I am now 11 weeks out. I am around 185-186 now. I got my BF% clipped at 9%. I hope to not loose to much more weight. I really wanted to diet slow and hang onto as much muscle as possible this year. Hopefully I can get down to 180 at 5%, if I can diet slow enough (we shall see) and then once I carb up I will be up in the high 180s. But, I think realistically I wil drop down to like 175lbs after dropping water and then carb up into the low-mid 180s. I don't really want to focus on weight as much this year. I am trying to really get my conditioning solid so that I can appear bigger than I am. My waist is already at 31", last year on contest day it was kust under 29". Also, I haven't done any cardio this far and am trying not to do any until like the last 4 weeks. Really trying to rely on my diet to drop body fat because cardio makes me loose to much muscle and look flat.
