I like it. Thanks for the share.
Hey Cog, I do more than just those two exercises, it is more of a motivational type video then an educational. At this point my channel is in its infancy, because i am less than 6 weeks out i don’t want to put too much time into it, I really wanted some footage of what goes into a show prep work-out. What i show is more or less a small sample; i find it I am to do a long series like I did with the back video's people will get bored.
Once I’m done the show I would like to start up vlogs about nutrition and training, those will be more comprehensive. I am still uncertain about touching on other bodybuilding topics such as sports supplementation and enhanced supplementation; I don’t want the younger audience to get the wrong message although I would prefer them to be educated rather than doing stupidity without proper understanding.
I do 21's as well, hammer curls, close grip bench, skull crushers.. Truth be told I had no camera guy this time around and had to bother some kid to shot the exercises that i did record.
As for the rest of you; I will start an independent Rap battle thread so you guys can duke it out, just don’t talk about my momma
Nice videos. I presume you are not doing this with permission from the gym and just having someone hold a smartphone? I have gone through hell and high water to attempt to get some pictures... video would be a no go at any gym i have tried >_<
Interesting to hear you guys talk about the kingston YMCA, of all the YMCA's i have been to it is by far my favourite, it was dark, and had a think layer of dust under all of the equipment, the equipment was old and well worn, but it had a good vibe and there was not one university student there... my girlfriend graduated from queens and would sneak me into the queens university gym... worse gym experience of my life...
I haven't been to it yet but apparently the new Queen's gym is wicked. A full compliment of powerlifting equipment as well. The Y has piece by piece managed to sell off all their good old stuff. Still have the best DBs ever though.
Yes, that works well. Niggas always be shooting each other in da back yo .
The new queens gym is so odd... there equipment is spread out over 6 floors, it is full of university students (i mean FULL), no body wipes any equipment, no one puts ANYTHING back there is dumb bells and plates all over the floors everywhere. They do not have a incline bar bell bench... i looked EVERYWHERE, asked employees and they did not even know what that was... It is like a sanctuary for yuppies...
non-sense! at 6 foot and 250 shredded you'd likely win a provincial level show and be in the top 5 nationally unless you have symmetry issues. Guys like Ron Partlow are over 6 foot and compete at 250-260. The overall winner this year at nationals (Henri Pierre) was a tall dude - no way was he a pound over 250. Year before Antoine took it and claims to be 6 foot at 250 - and he wasn't even shredded when he took it. Mike Johnson was 218 on stage at 5'10 and took the overall the year before that.
I say go for it. If you wait until you think you're big enough you'll never compete. Kinda like parents waiting until they are prepared to have a kid. No one is ever prepared to have a kid - you have one, then you learn how to be a good parent..... No one is ever as big as they want to be - but you have to take the first step somewhere. Also, to be good in the sport, you don't just take home a title the first try out. it takes years of learning your body, getting leaner and better each show.
As for the youtube videos... memories of my old goodlife gym on walkley! Good to keep those videos too - like you said, it helps put into perspective if you need to still work on some areas. when someone else films you, you really get to see what you look like from all angles. When prepping I usually get too lazy to keep up with pics and vids, although good to have for next prep as well - just to make sure you're on "pace" from last prep. As for the music, put whatever you you like in the videos! If we don't like it, we can turn it down. Not like these vids are going into the generation iron movie, so just have fun with it.
You are correct about never being big enough. when I started training at 175lbs., I thought if I could make it to 200lbs. I'd be happy, then it was 220, 240, now I'm thinking 300.The problem is, in my eyes, because the change in my body has been over the course of 20 years, I don't really see the results like I probably should. 110lbs of extra muscle should make me happy but not ready to say enough. As for symmetry issues, I'm actually very symmetrical but what I see in the super heavyweights is gigantic legs which aren't symmetrical with the rest of their bodies. My legs aren't bad, I have 30 " thighs and 19" calves but I would like at least 2 more inches in both of these. Greg Kovacs trained for a while at our gym in Grimsby and after seeing him train in person I don't think I'll ever feel big. Anyway, I'm gonna keep pluggin' and see what happens by next summer.
Man I'm a shrimp compared to you and I did competitions!
Go for it, do it for the experience, see this as a practice for latter! With all the work you have put into it over the last 20 years, you are more then ready to step on the stage.
+ You'll have nice pictures and memories when you'll look back in another 20 years and you'll be glad you did it.
