Korilon's 4 week prep to the OPA provincials june 19 2010

[Korilon]

Well following in Tavs footsteps and starting a new log for the provincial prep.
Only got 4 weeks to get ready for this one.
Starti ng all over tomorrow morning with my hour cardio to get rid of some of this junk I put on in the last 2 days.

CMT will be representing in london once again!!

gonna try and get my legs shreaded. I think my upperbody was good but I was lacking in the leanness in my legs. time to rectify that.

[Korilon]

here is a pic from the mississauga show to compare to.

we will see how much better I can get it :)

[steve_o]

I am in for the next 4 weeks. Good luck. Time to get even more shredded!

[Korilon]

Day 1 of 4 week Kill the legs prep.

well today is back to the diet. Yummy egg whites this morning :p

I'm pretty motivated this time around cause I know I have more time to get shreaded.
Felt my legs were not good enough for teh miss so will rectify that for sure!!!


Chest tonight and cadio cardio cardio :)

[Korilon]

ok new diet is going well.

down about 5lbs already from the rebound water weight.

It's extremely hard to get back at it. I am finding it hard to get up in the morning. probably all those carbs I have eaten are still making me sleepy.

I will say i am glad to be back in the gym. I did miss that part :)

well not the cardio part :P

this is the struggle I spoke about in tavi's log. A week between shows is easy to keep focus for. 2 weeks is less easy but you see the end-goal. 4 weeks is tough to get yourself mentally in gear for when you've just spent 12, 16, 20 weeks prepping for the first show.

[Korilon]

When i did my first show my trainer wanted me to do a level 2 show 2 months later. it was a desaster!! i came in last for the level 2.
I couldn't get back in the swing of things. plus he abandoned me at the last minute wioch did not help!!

So this time I am not gonna make the same mistake!! Jumping right back into it with both feet and going hard!!!

[natenator]

2 months I would not have done. Pros can do it (not saying its any easier for them mentally) because they have some added incentive ($) but us regular joes its very difficult.

vry true!!

after the prov if I qualify i am taking a nice looonnngggg break to build up my pain points that's for sure lol :p

this is the precise reason I am doing sudbury. I would have loved to do missisauga since it is likely a bigger show (and a little closer for us but not much).

1 week back to back, get it all done in 1 shabang! 4 weeks apart isn't so bad though if you feel as though you weren't in the best possible shape you could have been in. For example, before I knew there was a show in sudbury 1 week before provincials, I was going to do mississauga, but just show up a little less lean...Not really ideal, because I would hate to do a show "half-ass" just to qualify...especially when half ass might not get me qualified!

[Korilon]

On the treadmill at the gym. This is so boring lol did back today. Down to about 202. Was up as highas 209 one day. Cant wait to be sub 200 again.
40 More mins to go ugh

[bigtavi8]

Good work Korillon. Getting back into the swing of things now eh. Very good to hear. It was looking a little ugly for a few days here with me in the low 210s but everything is getting back eh. I have to admit the rebound after this show is quite hard for me to get out of. But ive been back in action just like you hittin the cardio. Lets get this done and show ppl how the CMT roles just like we did last weekend. Both in top 5 that would be a HELL of an accomplishment for me personally and the team as a whole. Im just thrilled we get to do it all over again in a few weeks. What a fricken blast it was the best weekend of my life honestly.

[Korilon]

London will be awesome!!

We will show that CMT is a force to be reconed with!!

[Korilon]

alright weight is going down good.

199lbs on the dot this am.

Sub 200 already :)

got the day off today so gonnna hit the gym then head downtown and do lots of walking then legs tonight at the gym.

[Korilon]

Killed the legs today. Squats, extensions, lunges, seated leg curls, lying leg curls and 30 mins on the bike.


decided to try an other gym today for a change of pace.

It's an older gym with kinda crappy equipement. The TV sound things didn't even work. Think I will stick to my gym. more posh but nice equipement :P

still pretty vascular in the upper body and can still see my abs so I think that's a good thing :P
need to get the legs to catch up.

[Korilon]

had a god delt workout today!
love working delts since DK gave me a good routine.
seen lots of improvement since then

Still carying alot of water in the mid section.
Arms and shoulders are still pretty vascular. legs are about the same as at contest time.
trying to get rid of the water. drinking lots having asparagus to try and flush some of it out.

will have a pic soon.

[Korilon]

I think things are back on track now.

weighed in at 196.2 this am!!

3 weeks to go 15lbs of water to get rid off. Not a problem!!!


CMT is back on track!!!

[Korilon]

196.2 at 10pm :)

same as this AM since this AM. And i have been eating my diet all day!!
Finaly this stupid rebound weight is going away!!

3 weeks to go and I think I might actually make it.

My legs are looking better then at the show already.

All my weight is held in my midsection.
arms and chest are vascular as hell.
Now that I see results it is motivating me even more.

starting to get excited again :)

[Korilon]

wahooo 194lbs this am :)

looking good!

legs are actually looking better then at the mississauga show!!

3 weeks to get them RIPPED!!!!!

[MuSuLPhReAk]

Korilon, your user title has been upgraded.

[steve_o]

That updated user title looks good on you.

[Korilon]

well back at it again

looking pretty good. gonna try and get some pics at the gym tonight.

CHest day today wahoo

Started my new job today so my meals were kinda off. Managed to get it all in but could not get my water in. first day is always the hardest. tomorrow will be better as I have my desk and know where everythng is. We have a good filtered water dispense :P nice and cold lol



pics soon

[Korilon]

here is a couple pics from the gym tonight.
damn lighting sucks!!

[ironwill]

legs are coming along, really focus on back this year bro.......You need to get that sucker wider and thicker...

[Delt King]

Agreed, wider will give anyone a big visual wow upon first impression.

[natenator]

Agreed, wider will give anyone a big visual wow upon first impression.
not if wider = waist LOL

sigh

[Delt King]

not if wider = waist LOL

sigh

That would be negative WOW. lmao.
Seen plenty of those guys before.:D

[Korilon]

Haha my waist is not gonna get big. not gonna do anything to make that grow lol.

I do agree i need back width. lots of stuff I am gonna work on this year.
Gonna be a new me for teh canada's ;P lol

[natenator]

if you're putting on any decent size you're waist will grow. One cannot maintain a 30" waist while adding 10, 15, 20lbs of muscle.

[Korilon]

ummmm I think we all mean GH gut!!!

at least that's what I'm talking about.

Of course ya can't have a 30' waist on a bulk. but 33' sure.

Then 30 again when I compete :P

[natenator]

Then 30 again when I compete :P
flawed thinking. GH gut is overrated. Sure, no question there are distention issues due to GH and insulin but you pound back 5000, 6000, 7000 calories a day and your gut will be distended too.

Ever seen progress pics of pros who go from 200'ish lbs early in their careers to 230, 240, 250? Waist size has increased and that's not all due to GH.

Just saying don't expect to keep the same stage waist size if you are looking to put on decent size. By decent size I am not talking 3-5lbs in one year. I am talking about 15, 20, 25lbs in 4-6 years.

Anyway, how's prep going?

[Korilon]

Oh god j don't plan on gaining that much muscle lol i'm to old to train that hard lol. If i can gain 10-15 lbs in a few yearz i'll be happy. I did the "get fat" off season, i wanna stay relatively lean this off season.

Prep is good 194.2lbs this am. Legs are looking better. I want cadbs again already lol

[Delt King]

Two and a half weeks to go...crunch time is on, leave nothing at the table, leave no stone unturned, give it 110% and when you think you're ready...give even more. Let's do this Bro!!!!:hu

[Korilon]

oh it's on coach :P

did legs today and killed them.

looking pretty good.

gonna try and get a pic tomorrow morning when I am all dry lol

100% correct...distended abdomen has much less to do with GH then with the amount of food necessary to get very large. You can prove this to yourself by looking at the very large BB's and the smaller 202 guys. Both are running alot of GH...only the big guys have distended guts...this is due to the massive food intake not GH or insulin. If you want to put on significant size youll need to eat much more food than you think is necessary.

Well that makes me want to stay smaller then lol. i really don't like the distended abdomen look.

If you watch portion size it helps.

[Korilon]

what a lazy day today!!!

did 2 sessions of cardio today.

fell asleep while watching a movie :P
am I beat or was it a boring movie? lol Bourne supremacy you be the judge.

[Korilon]

well weight is comming down.
192.2 this am

apparently the cut off is 187lbs for middleweight this time so I am not worried about making weight.
just gonna try and get as shreaded as posible :)

[Dragon1911]

Keep it up bro

[Korilon]

trying to :P

lol

going good so far.


Keep it up bro

[steve_o]

It is all about the conditioning if you ask me. Some guys might be bigger but I like going for the shock factor of "OMG how did that guy get like that????" Keep it up, not long now.

[Korilon]

Ya I wanna be the freaky lean guy but my legs just don't wanna co-opperate to get that lean. granted they are much better then the last show but I want striations out the wazoo but I just can't get there.

guess more diet time.

[Korilon]

SWEEEEEEEEETTTTTTTTTTT

I got an audition for the OLG commercial!! They want bodybuilders to bounce their pecks to music lol

friday night baby. Hope I can do it fast enough it's a bethoven song and it's pretty fast lol :P

[Delt King]

^^^^ great timing there being ripped lol

[steve_o]

Congrats on the commercial, get those pecs a bouncing. Keep up the hard work, progress is happening for you.

[Dragon1911]

Congrats on the commercial man

[laslo101]

congrats i wish i could bounce my pecs lol

[Korilon]

I don't have the commercial yet. it's just an audition first.
I sent them a pic from the sauga show and I guess they liked it :P

what to choose?? Vegas to furthewr my career or a commercial????

ARRRGGGHHHHH

career always comes first over frill things

[Korilon]

Oh I agree for sure. Just sucks that it just happens to fall on the same day lol.

[Korilon]

wow do I ever feel like crap!!!

Tired. lethargic, brain dead.
I got a new job and doing some training and it's sooooo hard to concentrate and not fall asleep looking at a monitor all day reading about CPU's and memory lol


Looking good but looking flat. my skin is pretty thin and vascular but not much definition.
can't wait to eat carbs again!!


7 days till weigh-ins

[steve_o]

Keep it up.....Just think 1 week from now it will be the Eve of your biggest bodybuilding competition to date. So much hard work and effort will pay off once again.

I'm still happy with my conditioning here.
My legs are way better then at the sauga's and over all much beter. Just didn't have the mass to compete. It's all good.


here are a couple pics in the park across from the venue.

Adding mass will make you unbeatable in the next class. Keep it up Korilon! Congrats on a great year. :)
