What show are you planning to do in the spring?

Southern States Classic Bodybuilding...Liberty, MO. Less then 100 days to go

Have u ever competed?

Cool. Good luck. No I have not competed. I may do Muscle Mania in the spring. Im one of those people that gets into contest shape, but never competes. Im a trainer so I have to expirement on myself in order to help others.

Very cool, I used to also just get in contest shape as the idea of doing a show never really appealed to me...this will only be my 2nd and after this I think Im going to retire....not my cup of tea its just been a great challenge for myself.

I just noticed you are from Boston, I lived there until about 18 months ago...Southie and Dorchester...how about you? I used to train at the World's Gym in Sommerville.

Nice. Im in Woburn. Hope you are still a Pat's fan. The thought of competing really doesnt do it for me either, but with all this work it seems like the right thing to do.

Good stuff, I used to work in Burlington right next to you off of Mall Rd. Sounds like you are in the same place I was a year ago or so...always getting into great shape but not sure about all that contest stuff...its not really in my personality to oil myself up and pose in front of others but the allure of the challenge eventually convinced me to do it.

If you ever do a show and need some tips feel free to send them over.

GO Pats.

Cool. I totaly agree with you on the oil up and pose thing. Pat's rock. Superbowl!!!!!

Yes that part is not fun but the wine I drink to bring out my vascularity before I step on stage helps to get me past some of that...

Go Pats....

Obviously you are glad that you finally took the plunge or you probably wouldnt do it again. Right?

Im still torn on it really...

My motivation for this second show is to win this time...if I win I am retired, a nice quick career.

Wwell I guess its the challenge then. Cool. I dont want to compete unless I have full confidance in winning. So, I hear ya.
