well am back from my hols... didnt train whilst there... decided it was pointless as my nutrition the days after training wouldnt be very good so no point wasting my time and might as well just rest up...

back to full throttle as of today... feel like ive had 7 bells of hell kicked out of me after training legs last night!... lol.. although i did follow it up with a chicken korma and a couple of bottles of wine!

i tend to spend most of my time around other people who train/bodybuild... so apart from at work im around big lads most of the time... its amazing how many odd looks you get when out and about in new places... i dont really consider myself that big... but found myself putting my t-shirt on when walking around (even tho heat was very intense) cause of all the stares!!!

i should have the pics from the show on my PC.. it was a very close top 3 in my opinion... although i wasnt at my 100% best i have to admit. it could have gone either way on the day.. the guy that won was absolutely shredded with a not too good shape... but when your shredded like that yoru hard to beat... and wayne robinson who came second had some big full muscle and a good shape... i think i had the best all round combination.. and a better smile

i was happy on the day... and the two guys that beat me were good and deserving!!

theres a great moment on the DVD though... just as were all walking off stage... one of my mates shouts at the top of his voice... its totally clear on the DVD too.. "Unlucky lee mate you should have been second" lol...

there was also a lad from paul georges gym competing.. cant remember his name but he had some great bodyparts.. especially legs and chest.. and was just lacking a little extra conditioning.. had he had that it might have been a different story!

thanks for the kind words tho squatty mate... and tell bert ill call....

well i did dumbell flat benching last night for the first time in i dont know how many months... felt very odd and a little sore around my shoulder area.. but was more of a stiffness than anything else... so im putting it down to simply being over-careful with my form on that side.. no pain this morning either which is good!

on a bad note... i must have some kind of stomach bug... feel nauseous every time i eat (not good when you eat 7 times a day)... for the last 2 days ive managed to get all my meals into me apart from my last meal of the day... as i felt too sick... bu this morning i couldnt face my oats for breakfast!!! still got my protein in and some wholemeal toast... will see how it goes next few days!

had a good look at a mate of mine last night whos competing at the UKBFF north east show in leeds on 10th sept... and hes looking very very good and will do some serious damage as long as he does not lose his head over next four weeks! hell be in the light heavyweight class (under 90kg) which is usually a tough one as theyre all good... ill post some pics of him after the show for everyone to see...

the most impressive past is hes dieted without the use of HGH which alot of competitors at that level regularly use (i dont/havent)... and they dont get anywhere near his condition!! hes done it the hard way and kept things simple and not messed about and worked hard and his condition has come down slowly each week! let this be a lesson to all those (i.e. joe16) who think theres an easy way in bodybuilding!!!

well my stomach bug seems to have gone... although it did make me eat alot of junk food - im not one to stick to a clean diet when not feeling well!

im just happy i can eat again now and get stuck into some good muscle building grub!

everyone in the gym keeps telling me im looking big.... so something must be working! lol...

personally i know alot of the size ive put on is fat and water as i know what to expect from my body.. but heres a couple of stats:

28th may - 11stone 00lb (on stage)
20th aug - 13stone 12lb (err.. NOT on stage lol)

juding from what ive seen over the last 3 months id guess about 5-7lbs of that will be solid muscle... which is what id hoped for... ive just put on a little extra fat i think (although not too much).. so im on course for having my extra 21lbs of muscle on stage around this time next year! but theres plenty of hard graft ahead.

everyone seems to be posting photos on here at moment so ill try and take some this week sometime and post some up!

quite a few people have also remarked that from the recent pictures published in the beef they thought i was hard done by at my last show.. (as squatty did).. as ive said i thought it could have gone any way.... BUT i know personally that i was off my diet for a day the week before the show so in all honesty the only person i can blame for any decision is my self... im not the kind of person that feels i should be rewarded when i know i could have worked harder so its really tuff titties to me in that respect and im grateful i got 3rd! roll on next year!!

okay... well as promised here are some pics.. taken last night at a weight of just under 14 stone.

as you can see im a littel fat.. lol.. but thats fine is i was expecting something like this anyways...

originally i was hoping my legs would have filled out a little more by now but due to my knee pain they are a few weeks behind i think!

my triceps and lower chest are filling out in the areas i had planned... although its hard to tell from the photo.. and when theres fat covering them too.



this shows off my chubby belly the most! - again lower chest filling out and lats where they need to be for now.. want them a little lower but thats going to take a loooong time!



okay so ive forgot how to pose! lol... hmm.. look a bit awkward here! not much more to be said.. hams are coming on.. and you can see a little more of tricep here... "little" being the word! lol



lower back starting to look thicker! stop looking at me bum!!!! :shock:



i always twist when i do this pose.. hmmm..



last but not least.. should give a good indication of overall shape..



all in all considering ive only been back from my hols a couple of weeks and had a stomach bug last week im fairly happy.. my condition isnt where id planned for it to be.. but im not going to beat myself up about that... itll all come off when i start dieting.. just means ill need to start earlier thats all!

any thoughts/opinions/comments both good and bad are always welcome... as you can see from the photos im not hiding anything.. im quite happy for people on here to see my telly-tubby look! lol
