I am toying around with doing my 1st show next year... I took this shot earlier this morning at my gym... the photo below was me back in 2002 when I used to believe, "to be as strong as horse you had to eat like one"... I will take some better shots next week...

I think he is talking about me being on a keto diet just trying to maintain my muscle without losing it...you look like you are eating healthy but you are having carbs my only carbs per day are 2 cups of baby spinach. You are looking cut though since you are so big already!

cutting is the process that happens in the last few days of a show to get stage ready. Dieting is simply trying to lose weight/fat.

People interchange these terms all the time but they really are two different things.

ah, i had a feeling you were referring to contest prep...

it's pretty much the same thing.. it may have been used to describe contest prep back in the day, but it seems everyone these days uses it to say they're dieting to lose weight and gain muscle definition.

some of these photos look similiar to ones I've seen when I was on ripped canadians. As I remember they were like anti-steroid advertisements or something like that.
Anyways. ... great progress.
Best of luck with your upcoming show

I put some photos up when I lost weight back in 03/04... I did it without any sort of juice during or before... I got into an arguement with alot of internet haters... At the time I made it up to to around 200lbs... this can be done naturally with good diet, decent genetics and knowing how to eat properly...

How much you weighing these days? If you have 21 inch arms you must be around 230ish. You should put your pics in the member pic section to.

Im in the same boat.Legs and calves dont come easy.Im squatting 4 plates pretty good now and can go damn heavy on the calf machine,but my genetics wont let me get them too big,too quickly....

I guess we need to be more patient.
