Korilon's road to provincials 2014

[natenator]

here is a comparison with me and the guy who won.

It's close I guess

I dunno

Not betwen you and him it isn't. He's much thicker from the sides than you - both below and up top and conditioning is better (hamstring separation and calve definition)

[Korilon]

my arms are bigger, better shoulder separation, abs look better, my obliques stand out more.... guess it's a tough call

[Korilon]

ok the guy who won might have beet me but this is teh guy that got second.....

Come on!!!

[natenator]

pretty smooth looking

but here's my question: why do you care?

If you can honestly say you didd everything possible to come in at your best (offseason and contest prep) then the placing doesn't matter really, especially if you weren't going to come first. 2-5 placings gain no special advantage so basically it comes down to an ego stroke for you to say you placed 2nd or 3rd?

Focus on you and do everything you can to improve is what matters.

[Korilon]

come on man everyone wants to place well! If you say you don't you are lieing.
And when you think you should have placed higher and you don't it is disapointing! it's not an Ego thing!
people go into sports to win!!

I am happy i qualified don't get me wrong! but a better placing would be nice when you know you should have been better placed.

[Delt King]

well contest is over.

I was confused from the weigh in's the the results!!

I weighed in at 179.6 lbs and tehy told me I was light heavy!! I was like WTF???
the combined middle and LH together. 176-198lbs
6 guys in my class.

I think I looked great dry, ripped full.... but I guess the judges didn't think so and I got 4th!! honestly I and everyone else I talked to even the pros that were there could not understand what the judges were looking for! the guy who won my class won the best poser and the overall! not to be an ass or anything but I don't think he deserved to win! he was soft in the upper body. granted he had good legs! but come on.

Same thing happened with the heavy weights. everybody thought the guy that got 3rd or 4th shoulda won.

would be nice to know what the judges were looking for.

Don't get me wrong I am happy i qualified but damn I think I need to rethink what kinda condition I gotta come in next time

gonna do a photoshoot next weekend at my buddy's gym and thinking of trying the physique division in london next month.


here are a couple pics

Thanks to everyone for the words of encouragement throughout my prep. really appreciate it!!

and thanks to Delt King for getting me in the best shape of my life!! you the man!!!

Thanks for the shoutout bro. You did an amazing job pulling it all together once again. Those hours of cardio must've been aweful lol. Think of that this offseason. rest up this week then prepare yourself mentally for the next goal, whatever that may be.

[Korilon]

198lbs on stage in 2014 is the goal hahah

20lbs of solid muscle in 2 years? is that doable?? dunno but I'm gonna try :P

[Korilon]

Well spoke to a wonderful judge that helped me out with what i need to improve.

Legs of course have always been my bane!! gonna hit them super hard over the next 2 years!!
Upper body thickness needs to come up. Once my shoulder is recovered I will be hitting the upper body with heavy sets
DK is setup an off season diet to make sure i get the right nutrients this time to make me grow..

This off season will be the best ever!!

Gotta make CMT proud and make it to the nationals this time

[natenator]

you may need to go with twice a week leg training to make them grow, esp if you have been hitting them as hard as you can and aren't moving the needle as much as you'd like

[Korilon]

Because of my lower back issues I have not been doing them as consistently as I could have been. weight has been a big Issue!!
But my back is much better now so I think i should be able to increase the weight and intensity. but I still plan to do them twice a week cause they are lagging a lot for sure


Any tips on getting huge quads?
