Recommended Posts

Hey forum family!

 

On saturday, Rob and i are having our competitions!

 

We both go on a road trip to reach the place, though i have to go only 4 hours by car, not 8.

 

I leave tomorrow, this is my last post before i return on sunday. I'll post the results in this very thread.

 

Rob, good luck to you!

Kick ass out on the stage man

 

I'm excited for pictures of your contest as well as mine

 

Have a great time, have fun while winning

 

Love and peace,

Daywalker

Alex when they see that you're ripped enough to take on Superman, they'll have to let you win.

 

Rob when everyone sees the veins bulging in your forearms, your competitors will just look like a bunch of wheaties.

 

I'm looking forward to see you two win! VEGAN POWER!

You will do an awesome job Alex!

 

You are the guy I've been looking up to every since I met you through this site. I took photos yesterday and I even said to Topher, "Look, my back looks like Daywalker's" in some of the photos Not quite as great as you, but I'm in pretty awesome shape right now.

 

You will do great and I look forward to hearing the report and seeing pics!

Ok I just spent 10 minutes trying to take a decent photo of myself to prove I'm wearing my vegan fitness team t-shirt, but it's not working out to well...so you'll just have to trust me

Robert is in the shower now, our stuff is packed, and we're hitting the road in maybe half an hour? I'm pumped!!!!

California here we come!

So...

 

Here is my report.

 

We left on friday and traveled 7 hours and 30 minutes to the place only 380 kilometers away Damn traffic jams.

 

The competition was fun The organization was ... erm... mediocre but the atmosphere among the athletes was awesome.

K-oz did a wonderful job as my coach and Dream-TanTM-applier

 

Everything went good, except for the back poses that i messed up

 

I ate a ton of rice, rice wafers, and a whole cake in the process That was the best part

 

The result was very close, i was tied for the place and we were compared again - maybe better posing with the back poses could have changed the outcome.

 

I went second - vice-champion. Damn

 

K-oz and i wore the VBB T-shirts all day We talked ot many people about veganism and did good promotion and advertising I handed out your cards, Rob, and generally showed a good example of a vegan

 

Below are some shots.

 

First, my shape backstage:

Most muscular: Front shot:

My arm can look big, too!

Here are pics to give you an impression of the action on stage.

The light was not good, and the pics are inferior to those backstage (where the light wasn't exactly perfect as well).

 

The winner in front pose:

The second place in back pose:

First place abs:

Second place abs:

Okay, he was not bad. He had advantadges over me, mainly his legs and arms. His middle (abs) were crap, and i think he had no good proportions. But it's okay that he won, we were tied, and he was bulkier, that's waht it's about in BB after all.

Note: on some pics he seems taller and bigger than me, but he was half a head shorter, he just stands nearer to the camera.

 

Side chest comparison:

Back comparison:

Latspread comparison:

On this pic you see well how tiny my arms are, especially compared to his

Last pic: Line up shot where you can see that the winner is really "a bit" bulkier than me.

So, that was it. I hope Robert did a little better

Nest time it's figure class for me

 

And next year i'm gonna return 4kg's heavier!

 

Oh, here, one last pic - after contest

i second what madre said - i think that you were shortchanged too.

 

i mean, i think that it was close, and he did have a little more mass, but his abs were, as you said, crap (infact non existant - probably all the hormones!), and his general aesthetics were also not good.

 

you looked great for the contest, and all i can say is that i hope you are more fortunate with the judging at the next one

Congrats on the second place!

 

But, I agree with this:

 

. . . his abs were, as you said, crap (infact non existant - probably all the hormones!), and his general aesthetics were also not good.

 

Overall, I think you just looked better aesthetically, perhaps because you have more definition and a better midsection.

 

You looked great!
