ok, ive been dieting for 12 weeks now for the first of 3 competitions starting this weekend. ive been meaning to post up pics for ages but never got around to it, so i took these last nite, i started out around 16 stone and a fat bast*rd, am now roughly 13 stone 10lbs, i know the pics a re not the best quality (phone camera) and they dont really show my condidition very well, but ill post up pics of the show for comparison afterwards.

any negative comments will be taken very badly, with the possible result of suicide...... just kidding, say what you think, ill be onstage regardless of wether you lot think im a small skinny fat bast*rd, or not,lol.

the lighting was terrible where the pics got taken del, it kinda only goes 1/3 of the way down your body if you know what i mean so the legs shots i got were flat and pretty bad. i know excuses excuses! my quads are quite good size wise, but youll see a lack of definition in hamstrings and calfs on saturday. definatley wont be in best condition for this weekend but im still happy, hopefully see some real improvements before the last show.

mickus

Mate you look good! Your back shot is ace... Keep up the good work lad!!!!

Coco you have nothing to worry about you are in great shape (Better than me). None of us will be in the exact condition we wanted (We are first timers remember).

I am seeing this show as an "Experience" its the first time I have dieted and really had an opportunity to see what was underneath all that blubber.
This alone has made the whole thing worthwhile, as it has enabled me to trully asses where I need to improve over the next few years (For me back, calves and BF).

Damm it I was going to post some pics in my thread on thursday but I am going to do it today......................these pictures will show you how succesfull I have been in getting to this point in the first place, and will once and for all put to bed that no matter how I place I have already won.
And I am sure it is a similar story for you and most other competitors.

Be proud of what you have been, who you are and who you are going to be.

cheers del, very encouraging words.
doing this diet has really emphasised the weak points i didnt realise i had, my arms are really overpowered by my delts which leads to an unbalanced physique, also calfs are the same really overpowered by my quads. but as you say its a learning curve and this will definatley make you and me better bodybuilders mate. the next two years will be spent rectifying these points.

your story del has been full of posistive attitude and its very inspiring, your friendliness and help has really made a difference to my own journey and for this i thank you.

Hello mate. I think you have a very good physique. You're chest needs a little more attention although the pose won't do it much justice. Delts look very good and a ncie taper on your back, try and do some close grip pull downs and single arm dbell rows to lengthen your lats a little but all in all, good job mate. good luck for your first comp, I recon you'll do well.

cheers luke, the dreaded high lats eh, lol. dumbell rows is one of my main back excercises, although dont ever do close grip pulldowns, always wide chins, i should really give them a go. as for chest its def one of my weak points, when pumped i think it looks awsome, thick and hard but when not pumped, small an flat like two tiny chicken fillets, lol. wish i was pumped up all the time. hopefully ill get some decent pics at the show and this will give all a better look at me

you look awesome mate, bstard
