First timers pics - UK-Muscle Body Building Community

Delhi · 28-11-2006, 02:06 PM

Hi All,
Does anyone have some pics from first timers events around the UK?

I will rep anyone who posts some pics (Esp Nabba Scotland).

I really want to compete, and would like to know what sort of condition I need to be in.

Cheers

the best condition you can be is the only answer you need Del....

i can post up hundreds of pics of guys who have competed as a first timer but non of them will be against you so it is irrelevant...

Del all you need to know is that to be successful onstage you need to be in the best condition you can be on the day if you get beat then you get beat but you where the best you could be on the day...

Paul once again excellent advice....................100% agree.

I only want to see the standard that I must attain.
I WILL do my first show (Already paid my member fees).
I WILL be in the best condition I can be in (With help from ppl like yourself and other board members hopefully).
And I WILL do my level best to win (I am competitive).

However I do not want to step onstage (With 900 people watching) and suddenly realise that this show was not "Right" for me.

If I lose it will not be through lack of desire / ambition / dedication I can assure you of that.

You would not create a local football team and expect to compete with the premiership boys would you?

**Pscarb** · 28-11-2006, 03:00 PM

i agree but what i am trying to say is that the standard of each show changes from year to year.
for example a good friend of mine competes at the NABBA wales every year in class 4 and for the last 4-5yrs has won this class with no problems until this year where he came 2nd and could of been 3rd...

you can never control who will compete and because you are classed as a first timer there is no standard to achieve...

Littleluke · 28-11-2006, 05:27 PM

The standard was very high at the stars contest which Baz competed in and he came 4th which gives an idea of conditioning. As Paul said you can't really predict it. Just go for it.

Once again some good advice Paul.

Del,
Until you step on stage u will never know,if you are in the best condition you can be then u can be proud to be up there but remember not everyone can be first no matter how good you are..thats down to the judges!!!! But until you actually go up against other b/builders you wont relaise how good/bad you are and that where the learning curve kicks in on how to become more competitive,what you need to bring up on your physique,your posing?,mandatories etc...and thats why we all love b/building!!! best of luck.....

My pic in avatar is of nabba north west first timers 2006 I placed 6th in a line up of 17 competitors. But my placing is irrelevant as I looked the best i've ever looked and at only 22 I was against alot of guys and beat guys with alot more training experince etc under their belt. You could turn up to your show and the next Dorian Yates is in your line up doing his first show. All of this is irrelevant just make sure you leave no stone unturned in your contest prep pic the brains of some of the top cvompetitors on her pscarb tinytom supercell etc and you will definately be on the right track mate. Just concentrate on getting as shredded as possible. Dale
