Well after the weeks of contest prep and then keepin my condition for my shoots with Geared Up it was time for a break. My body was beat up! So for the last 7 weeks I was just resting. Training 2 or 3 days a week to keep the blood flowin. Now I'm sick of feeling small so Monday it will be back to work.
As of now I have 1 year and 1 month till I will have to start my contest prep for 2011. I will most likly be doing the Branch Warren Classic to requalify for the USA's in July 2011. The goal is to add the 15 lbs I need to be at the top of the light heavies. I will be doing apperences with Geared Up the NPC shows around Texas so I won't be puttin on the bodyfat I did last year, but I WILL BE GROWING!
I'm going to do my best to keep posting here as often as possible. Thanks to everyone for the feed back!

Last shoot done!
I'm finally done with everything. No more shoots or cardio for awhile.
We got a lot of great training footage. This was my 1st time training on video & I'm pretty happy with the results. What we shot last Wed looked really good. My condition was still pretty tight. Today I still looked good but not quite as hard. I'll post some pics soon here & on my website. I'll also try to put some of the training on there as well, but soon all the training videos will be on the new Geared Up web site. The NEW site hopfully will up & running next week. But the videos will need 2 be edited so it may take some time for the finished product.

Back Home
Well I don't know how many of you are going to be lookin on here now that Nationals are over but I plan to keep posting here to keep you updated and to get used to writing. No it's not going to help my spelling any I gave up on that years ago so just sound it out and I'm sure you'll figure out what I'm trien to get at.
So I had to be at the airport at 5:00am on Monday which ment I had to be up at 4:00am, but that is 3:00 our time here in SA. Got back to town Jessica picked me up at the airport when home had a shake and got ready to go to the gym (YES I WENT TO THE GYM!!). Knowing that this week some time I would be doing a shoot for Geared Up I had to get back in the routine ASAP. Actually had a good workout.
We nailed down the shoot for tomorrow morning so hopfully we'll get some different shots and some good video clips for the website. I'll post what I can when I can.

Thanks to you...
There are so many people that stepped up and came through for me during this journie. There is no way I can thank all of you the way in which you deserve.
Without the support of Geared Up Nutrion and there belief in me none of this could have happened. With them beside me I know there is nothing we cant accomplish! I am proud to be a member of the Geared Up team!
When I lost my appartment 5 weeks out from the show and I felt hopless my buddy Greg stepped in and let me move in to his home & made me feel welcome. I don't even want to think about how things could have gone had he not been there for me!
When the stress was at it's worst and my body stop allowing the fat to come off one of my bestfriend of 10 years Scott Salburg took over my diet and forced the last bit off fat off (basicly tried to kill me). Without the stress of making desition on my diet & just doing as I was told I was able to focus on the work and everything else!
Whenever I just needed to esscape my world and be a normal person Jessica was there for me so I could just relax and not be a bodybuilder if only for a bit. She is also takin care of our puppies while I'm away.
I have to thank The Muscle Factory Gym. They gave me a great place to train when I moved to there side of town. Other wise I would have had to drive 40 extra min each night to get my cardio in! It's great to have a hardcore place to train again.
There are so many more of you that have been there in countless ways that you may not even know how much it ment to me. Such as my amazing Parents and brother who have supported me from the begining. Thank all of you that have touched my life, been there for me along the way, and allowed me to pursue my dream. I hope in some way I can give back some what you have given me.
This setback has only made me stronger and more determined succeed. I promise I WILL NOT let you down.
From the bottom of my heart thank you all...

After prejudging...
Ok I'm sittin here alone at IHOP just finished eatin so I can now tell you a what happened.
It was a very tough class you can see pics on www.rxmuscle.com & www.musculardevelopment.com to see. I was about the lightest guy in the class (182 lbs) top of the class is 198. Top make it to the night show Sat you must place in the top 15. There were about 40 in my class. I was in the shape of my life but being the smallest made me not a factor so the show is over for me. As soon as I know what my place was I will let you know.
So now it's back to the drawing board. I will be goin to the gym here to start pushin for 2010! I don't want to let this get me down so new goals are set.
I have a photo shoot set up for tomorrow & maybe one Sun. Once I get back to town I will be doing more shoots for Geared Up as well as training vidieos for the new Geared Up web site. So after a bit of wallowing in negativity tonight it's time to focus on the improvment! Thanks everyone for all your support! Keep checkin back as I plan to keep up with this atleast through the shoots & training videos.
