Just got back from the MABBA prejudging... Coco looked great. I'm pretty sure she won the first round in both her classes. In round 2 her routine was darn near perfect but from a difficutly/technical perspective I'm not sure she did as well. The fitness routines were really quite good. Women's bodybuilding and fitness were the high point of the show.

Bikini and Figure really didn't do much for me.

Men's bodybuilding showed was interesting but I only saw 1 guy that looked ready for the nationals, Todd and about 5 guys that really looked like bodybuilders. The new "classic" seems to be a class for men with no legs.

Thanks for the update.

Interesting show, for a 'freak-love-fest'...some fitness girls got shafted, some bodybuilders accidentally won FIGURE...and nobody knows what they want in bikini cause they clearly didn't want anyone with any form of athleticism...

Both Ryan Malo and Mike Zylstra looked great in the superheavy weight mens. But of course my main mang Big Mike came on top!! Congrats Mike!

So I got it superheavies
Mike in 1st, Ryan, 2nd.

Anyone have any more placings...all is quiet everywhere online.

Hi Guys!!

I dont know how that happens.

I;m proud of what I accomplished this year. I competed against some seasoned competitors (joyce competing over 6 years and a fame pro and national level competitor.. shelly competing something like 14 years and a national level competitor)
I know i left nothing on the table... i played my hand... I did my BEST I am proud of myself. I made some huge changes to my physique.. came in with the best conditioning possible I just wasn't what the judges were looking that day! I can never prove it, but I think having all the ink I have hurts me a bit. I had the best abs on stage and the only chick with any quad seperation. Pretty confident that.. routines aside... my physique was (if not the best up there in my class) at least the best I could make it!

I ate alot of pizza, Drank a Bilini. had some cupcakes then barfed my guts out! LOL ..
My kid told me she was Proud of me.. Guys.. to have a 17 year old tell thier mom they are proud of them is a HUGE win! lol

Im taking a week to heal and replencish then starting training for Nationals. Im going. I want to see where I stand next to the best in the country. .. sooo see yya in Toronto Aug 28!

you and joyce must have been close since you came 2nd in short, and 3rd in masters, and she came 3rd in short and 2nd in masters.

Thanks for the updates Dryvrgrl. I organized them best I could.

Big congrats to you. I don't think I only speak for myself here but all of CBB is proud of you. Your drive motivates others and people like to see good things happen to good people.

Looking forward to you taking it to the national level.

Thanks MP!

I agree, my good friend Mike Zylstra looked the best out their. He has potential to go pro.

Mike Zylastra looked the best out their. He has alot of potential.

He's been looking large and in superb condition for awhile now. I figure he's going to take a shot at the nationals this year?

thanks!
P22- I did my best... the 3rd place was actually a tie in score for second... and I gauge that as an accomplishment since the same girl beat me unannamously last year!

Mike and Ryan were pretty much both insanely conditioned and equally matched... one point seperated them! total split decision, rumour has it, both will be heading to Nationals, along with Todd Payette, Amber Pawlyshyn (trying for middle weight) joyce, and myself, and a bunch of the figure girls.

i meet with my trainer on wed. going to start national prep. the feedback i got was more shoulders and hams. This is where the line is fine for a natty athlete.. I SERIOUSLY pounded as much on me as i could over the winter... i mean there is nothing else i could have done to get bigger shoulders, and it seems thats the first palce the girls who supplement with a little more power than creatine gain... Oh well... Ill keep pushing through, working on perfecting my routine and raise the bar of where my "best" is!!

If anyone at the show has any tips, advice or critiques for me... i'd be real glad to hear them! I take it all in and try to improve! I appreciate thanks CBB for all the support!

OH and i need a t-shirt by aug 14, because i should be repping CBB at BB Nationals in saskatoon.. lol ill be 2 weeks out then and lookin good!!!
;)

Me and the champ. (I am the smaller, paler guy on the right.)

Actually neither Mike or Ryan are headed to the Canadians, and it wasn't as close a competition as you may have thought. The 'one point' difference was really an insult to Mike, not a complement to Ryan, as Mike was just that much better conditioned then Ryan. When you are carrying so much water in your lower legs that you have no calf definition, let alone have the same legs you did when you were a 20 lbs lighter heavy weight you don't deserve to win anything.

And Ryan knows that full well.

If he had legs to match his upperbody he would be a pro already. But at 29 years old and a torn pectoral, if he hasn't brought those legs up by now, Chances are they aint coming up period.

As for Big Mike, he is well on his way to winning a procard! so next year Montreal look out!

From the 8th row it was Todd Payette that stood out in the line up. While I thought his conditioning looked about 8 weeks from shredded his muscle shape, symmetry and size stood out over the competition. If I were to pick who was going to be the most competitive from the manitoba crew Payette would be the guy. I think Mike looked great and his conditioning was spot on but this year I think we have seen his best and Todd's best would be better. Payette picked his parents better.

Are ya nuts or what. Mike won for a reason he Beat Todd in every aspect. Even if Todd came in a 100% he would have to lose at least 20 more pounds. He would look wayyyy to small standing next to Mike.

Mike deserved the win for sure!

As far as myself, I did the show for fun. I wasn't at my best. Just wanted to have some laughs. As far as having to lose 20lbs to be in shape as Emes said....LOL! That would mean I would be competing under 200lbs and that is not going to happen. As far as looking small next to Mike, you might be suprised. Muscle shape and symmetry can go a loooong way when you are peeled with the right shapes. I am not saying I would have beat Mike, but if my focus would have been Provincials and I came in like I will at Nationals this year, well I would have pushed Mike hard. At that point it becomes the judges preference.

Big Mike has a great shot at going pro, as does Prisoner 22.

As for myself, I will continue to do my best. Try to grow, polish and refine. As a good friend told me "change your set point for conditioning". Nationals will be fun.

Congrats to big Mike. He was outstanding and you will not find a nicer guy!

T

Its stupid, looking in hindsight you should have won best poser hands down, but they gave it to Ryan as sort of a consolation prize for not beating Mike.

Bodybuilding and politics eh!

Well bro, I can hardly wait to see you get bigger, coz those routines you pull out are gonna look even more impressive...

See in Saskatoon!
