Lightening sucked,took pics too early in the day,but that's what I had,couldn't pose either cause of my partial tears and the fucked up tendon in my Biceps.
Am going to rest my arm till WEdnesday,then I will start posing,hope it won't hurt me,but I will see.
Eventually I will find a good light-shadow hour so not too much light will be on my body.
I just think I look much better than the pics show:-)

DUDE no offense but you need to be alot leaner 7 days out,,, id say from here on out its fish and low carbs.

Everybody stated DROPPING the water??? you should be prepared a week out at least dropping the water is not always a necessity if onehas dieted correctly.

[EPU]

Though vander was blunt in his statement, he was correct. IMO, you should be leaner for 7 days out, but dont worry about it. At this point, work on your final week approach and do the best you can in your contest.

If you can find another show a few weeks from Aug 8, i think you'll be able to drop more fat and come in looking much sharper.

All the best

Vander always has a way of saying negative before positive. I hope he realizes you did something right at least. You are busting your ass man, keep it up!

Now im on both sides here. I agree with vander that you could be a lil bit leaner and that water retention is not all thats left. You can look at it two ways, if you havent competed that many times up to date, then your doing a great job, however if you have competed quite a few times then perhaps when this is over, go back and look through your dieting journal and see what could be changed. Like Vander said, if one has dieted sufficiently then water retention is not really a necessity.

Thx guys.

This is my first show and I will post better pics tomorrow and you will have a different opinion then cause I look much leaner and better than what these pics show,but I will let my next pics do the talking.

Handled very well fitnessman. Like i said in my other post, if this is your first show, then you look good. You'll learn more and more each time you diet. Now, just drop your water, go on stage and enjoy every minute of it!! Because after 3 and a half months of dieting all we get is 5 minutes on stage.
