Today I'm starting my Diet for the 2010 NPC Nationals on October 16th and possibly the NPC North American on on Sept 4th. Last year was my first attempt at Nationals and I placed 4th in the Lightweight Class. This year I plna on making some improvements, winning my class and earning my IFBB Pro Card.
Successful Off-season
This "Off-season" I did some things a little different and I really think they will pay off come show time. In the past I would normally get my weight up into the high 170's and then diet down to 154. This year, knowing that I wanted to be in the Lightweight class again, I followed my diet much closer and as a result I'm staring my show prep in much better condition and only weighing 167 pounds. This should allow me the luxury of nor worrying about my weight and just concentrating on being the best I can be.
Mistakes made last year
When I look at my pictures from last year, I know I could have been much harder. Going into the show I was worried that I wouldn't be big enough. I had never competed in a non-tested show before and I knew those guys would be thick! I was pleased that I appeared as big as any of them on stage so that is no longer a worry for me. Now I just have to keep my muscle and come in tighter.
