I finished my show in Rockford, Illinois. I weighed in at about 195lbs...I felt like I looked great; but, the judges awarded me a 2nd place. I don't have any regrets over how I looked and I'm not sure I would have changed anything. This is a sport where, if you believe you looked the best you could then that's all you can ask of yourself. I finally met another milestone that I had for myself and that was to 'peak' on the day of the competition - in other words...I didn't look better on Friday or Sunday - I looked my best on Saturday...this is a big deal in this sport and shows that I've come a long way in learning how to prep. Now, I have one more competition this Saturday...I'm going to change one thing, and add another thing...and experiment a bit to see how I look for this one. |
