Urgent help needed!

Mr Moley · 06-18-2009, 08:16 AM

So long story short:

Ive trained my ass off for the past 15-18 months to get into shape.
In 3 weeks and 2 days from the date of this post 18/06/09 there is a natural bodybuilding competition in my area. I want to step on stage without a doubt, there is a teen category in which i think i could do well in looking at some of the other competitors from the Scottish category photo's.

In case any of you brits are wondering it's the BNBF championships.
about-us

I'd be in the welsh championships. The scottish have already been done and the teen category looks pretty good for me seeing as im only 16 and still pretty small compared to the other categories.

If i want to enter and decide to i need to become a member which requires me to send of forms and stuff which need to be in 2 weeks prior to competition date. So that would mean i need to make a decision ASAP.

All i want to know is with 3 weeks and 2 days left am i in shape enough to get a tight mid section?

I'm 162.5lbs now and im pretty ripped apart from my mid section. I know ill need to get some photo's up soon and i will get some taken tomorrow during my shoulder workout of all the poses i can muster.

If i do decide to enter im gunna need a crash course on everything from tanning to posing to getting my diet spot on closer to the comp.

What do you guys think?

PLEASE help. Thanks :)

Well its great you are determined to get on stage.
Obviously we need to see pics but 3 weeks is a very short time to get ready for a show.

Mr Moley · 06-18-2009, 09:59 AM

I understand that. I will defiantly defiantly get some tomorrow dude. Can you post any pics of what i SHOULD look 3 weeks out?

It's not like Ive been fannying around for months though....it's been hardcore diet and training to get into shape for the summer months for the past 12 weeks so in essence i have been really working at getting into shape. I have a striated lower back, shoulders hamstrings, quads, pecs, im really in the best shape ive been in apart from a slightly flabby mid section. If i had a solid 6 pack id walk on stage without a doubt but 3 weeks out i need to know if i can "make the cut" to compete as this is the only show in the south wales area for a long while and i want to get on there!

Do you understand where i'm coming from?

Also would you mind checking out the pictures from the teen category of the Scottish championships and telling me what you think theyre weight/height is around. They all look pretty tall and skinny, i really feel i have a good whack at doing well if my mid section is tight.

I definitely see where you are coming from.
Not sure if I got any pics at 3 weeks out or not but.At 3 weeks really you shouldnt have any more excess fat to get rid of.Maybe a pound or so.You should be pretty lean besides holding water at this point in the game.
You should also be posing like everyday for at least 30 mins by now.Posing helps bring out the little cross striations and stuff real well imo.
You should have veins where you never had them before lol

You should also be working on your routine and working on getting a base tan unless youre of color lol

I was 3-4 weeks out from my show here when I decided to go ahead and drop my water and do a different show on this day

Mr Moley · 06-18-2009, 12:00 PM

In alll honesty now i'd say my entire body would be like that if i dropped water and dried out before the show, had a solid tan and posed well, apart from my damn mid section which is carrying the extra baggage.

Ive NEVER had a full on six pack and this is what i think is the reasoning behind me holding the weight there, it beyond stubborn, because its never been removed...ever. Since i was 11 or so i was a fatty.

Here is me 18 months ago:

This is where I was at 3 weeks out, and I was behind where I needed to be.

When are these pics coming up 'Moley' they will really help us determine how well conditioned you are and if it would be possible. Get them up as soon as but 3 weeks is a very short time.

Mr Moley · 06-18-2009, 04:01 PM

well techinally i am 5'7" and 3/4, so not everyone is taller that you. i remember reading about that comp last year you did and remember seeing that picture, right around this time last year because we just moved into our new house if i am correct. actually reading about your comp and seeing your pics is what motivated me to do my first comp., not stroking no ego, just the truth. i think we are similiar in frame and obviously height, of course you have way more muscle than me, but that is one thing that motivates me.
