Default First Contest Prep!
Alright, I've decided I am going to do the Musclemania Texas competition on October 16, 2010. It will be my first competition, and I started this thread to get any tips and advice anyone may be able to provide. I am planning to bulk until approx. July 24, that will give me 12 weeks to prepare for the contest (cut down, pose, etc.). I will be posting my workouts on Andy's Bodybuilding Journey I would appreciate any tips on any aspects of contest prep you can give me.

Thanks,
Andy

Ripped, I literally just sent you a PM. Also, could you look at my pictures and tell me what you think I need to work on from what you can see? I will be posting leg pictures and back pictures when I get a chance.

Thanks!

I'm coming to that show. My advice is to stick with it, and never thick you're not big enough (some guys do - you don't need to be huge to win a novice). I would also hook up with an experienced contest prep coach to help you with a diet.
