Creator's Pre-contest 2010

[The Creator]

I was waiting for Rob's in! I knew I would make you proud one day papi Sorry I'm not in a towel

 

[Turkish1530]

You look great brother! Your conditioning is beast and I can def. see that you have improved a lot. I hope the show goes very well for you captain. BEst of luck!

 

[The Creator]

Thanks a ton Turk!

 

[BigBen]

Creator, what are you looking like bro? Drying up and leaning out as expected?

 

[tim290280]

About a week to go now?

When do you plan to start refeeding?

 

[The Creator]

Ben- I feel like I am looking okay. I feel flat and have been struggling with some really bad allergies and the sudafed has been throwing me off. I am frustrated with my glutes not quite coming in yet. Today was about a hundred grams of carbs and it was hard. I plan on getting in 200 tomorrow and then start depleting around 80-90 a day. Do you think 200 tomorrow would be a good idea or should I keep it lower?

Tim- One week! I will deplete sunday through Tuesday and then gradually re-feed starting Wednesday. I want to give myself plenty of time to fill out.

Yesterday was a very long day for me with about ten clients. I took in 2500 calories with 50p 25c 25f. Today was about 2300 calories with app the same ratios. Tomorrow I will shoot for about same calories with 45p 35c 20f.

Here is a pic from just a couple nights ago.

And my fat arse... I guess I will just keep hitting that stair stepper every morning at 6 for the next few days.

Your legs look very wide from the back...

 

[MrChewiebitums]

what if you turn you legs outwards(your feet point outwards) and keep your legs completely straight and flex your ass a bit an push your ribcage upwards and outwards a bit (kind of like when they do a Front Lat spread)

The point isn't presentation, the point is that The Creator feels he has more fat to lose or he won't be satisfied with his conditioning. Of course, he can tweak his posing and whatnot on the day of the show, but he still has about a week to go and feels he can do something about the fat he's still carrying. I think that's the better mental approach, as it eschews a defeatist attitude.

Looking great, by the way. Best of luck this coming week, as I'm sure these final few days can't be easy.

 

[The Creator]

^^ Thank you very much and for elaborating on my concerns. While I am sure that my posing is not perfect, I am sure that I need to take some more fat off my glutes before they could appear conditioned to my expectations under any posing circumstance. Thank you all for the support and feed back.

 

[Line]

No problem, man. My apologies if it seemed like I was trying to speak for you, as that surely was not my intent.

 

[The Creator]

No it did not seem like that. I just dont have the carbs to get that in depth with my posts :-/

On the plus side you'll be able to watch Will Ferrel movies and actually be entertained during your cardio

 

[PistolPete]

Hey Creator, you're doing an awesome job man, stay consistent, you're almost there! The extra cardio and depletion should definitely help you dry out that last bit. You're looking awesome bro seriously, stay positive!!

There are the totals for today and will be similar the next two days. Did chest and bi depletion today and it was brutal but posing afterwards gave me some confidence as I dont think I have ever looked that lean and full.
