robert Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 (edited) The Biceps contest is wrapping up voting in a couple of days and then we'll move on to the triceps contest before moving on to other muscle groups. Below you'll find the schedule. Remember there are men's and women's categories and the winners of each muscle contest will be featured on http://www.veganbodybuilding.com, receive a FREE Vegan Bodybuilding & Fitness t-shirt and we'll be the reigning champ until that muscle group comes around again. Please vote in our contests to support our participants! The contest schedule looks like this (one week to submit photos, one week to vote for the contestants): Weeks 1+2 = BicepsWeeks 3+4 = TricepsWeeks 5+6 = ChestWeeks 7+8 = Upper Legs (quads, hams, glutes)Weeks 9+10 = BackWeeks 11+12 = ShouldersWeeks 13+14 = AbsWeeks 15+16 = CalvesWeeks 17+18 = Most Muscular (whole body judged) We may do special ones for forearms, neck, etc. I left plenty of time to train legs for this contest, and back which is a favorite for many, and abs should be right in the middle of summer (Northern Hemisphere), around Vegan Vacation time! Have fun, best of luck, and thanks so much for your participation! Edited May 22, 2008 by robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted April 22, 2008 Author Share Posted April 22, 2008 There was a question as to whether the muscle should be cold (not pumped) or pumped and my feeling is, take your photos just as you would a bodybuilding competition! PUMPED!! Why not put your best foot forward? Why enter cold photos? That isn't how bodybuilding is judged, so I'll leave it up to each person, but my suggestion, is get PUMPED before the pics and you'll have the best chance of winning and put the best presentation together for featuring on our website. We want to feature winners who our thousands of visitors will look at and say, "Wow! I can be vegan and look like that!" Thanks again and have fun! Stay SWOL and get PUMPED!

sydneyvegan Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 Abs in the middle of Southern Hemisphere winter!!!!Don't think I'll be entering that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spine Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 There was a question as to whether the muscle should be cold (not pumped) or pumped and my feeling is, take your photos just as you would a bodybuilding competition! PUMPED!! Why not put your best foot forward? I was wondering the same thing with respect to progress photos. It would be fun to take the pics while pumped, but I don't know if that would create an accurate impression of the progress I'm making. What do you all think? Cold or pumped for progress pics?

robert Posted April 23, 2008 Author Share Posted April 23, 2008 For progress pics you can choose whatever you like, maybe cold is better, but for these contests, pumped for sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
