A week ago (July 20th). I started my official show prep for the NPC Nationals. The NPC Nationals is the top amateur show in the country. The winner of each weight class earns his Pro Card. This will be a step up in competition for me. I've always competed in drug tested shows in the past, but this year in order to earn my Pro card I will be competing drug free in a non-tested event. This may make things a little tougher but after winning my weight class two times at the Team Universe (the top drug tested show in the NPC) I feel I'm ready to step onto the Nationals stage to see what I can do.
NPC Nationals is held in Florida on November 21st. This puts me 18 weeks out from the contest. I had a very good "off-season" staying lean while making improvements to my week points. In the past I think I've had a tendency to flatten out while attempting to get leaner. My friend and coach Chris Faildo noticed this last year and helped me devise a game plan to come into the show a little fuller.
I plan on sticking with the same strategy this year and hopefully earn my Pro card in the Lightweight Class.
