Road to my first show

[grind4it]

Yea, I came in a .25" under 6' 1" which threw me in the 215 class. I showed sliced at 224. Honestly I should have showed at 228-230. I ran t3 way too long and lost muscle in my back and upper chest trying to get down to classic weights. It all worked out, I left with a 2nd and 3rd in the two bodybuilding categories I showed in.

Looking good my friend. Did you get feedback from the judges?

 

[Armenian]

Head npc judge said I needed to be more full. My coach didn't think so, but I weighed in at 173 with clothes/jacket/sweats etc and max weight limit was 177. So I know I was one of the smaller guys up there
