i am going to agree with someone from a previous comment that said your stance really took away from your legs... I assume that is the best pose for you to bring all of your best lines? anyway... you looked great dude, conditioning was spot on... i am hoping to be close to the same in that respect come this August... (hoping to compete in the NPC bama show.) Kind of shooting myself in the foot being a natural guy competing in a non-tested show..
yo bro i noticed on your interview for simply shredded that you weigh your meats cooked and you weigh your carbs raw < why do you weigh carbs raw im really curious because i have been weighin my carbs cooked ?
@AIFitnesslife Carbs expand when you cook em... Could easily under eat in carbs.. As for meats contract when you cook em when they lose water and fat.. So you could under eat in protein.. Just a guess
@BuiltFitness I hear yea man. This year, 2012 I'm really focusing on getting them bigger. Changing the way I've done lats in the past that's for sure.
hey matt, my lats are so smalll, what do you think is the best exercise for back to gain some more muscle and to make my lats appear more? and what is the best set and rep range would be the best?
Yo bro whats your take on calves? I think its gentics for size and shape , i have done a video on this and i wanted to hear some others on this topic. Thanks bro and for sure if that guy was your age you would have owned him end of story.
@BeastBodyBuilding yeah, I think calf development is majorly genetic. There are people who don't work them at all and they're huge and sexy. That said, they still have potential to grow like any other muscle within respectable proportions.
@flexforall2 True very true. I was just talking to whole bunch of my gym bros there always mirrin my calves saying they wish they had calves like mine, some of them train hard some are lazy on training them. I also train EVERY muscle group intense my proportions are good now just need to get every thing bigger. But thanks for the reply bro and love the ending Frank Yangs 480 dl i remember watching that video in the 11th grade @ 17 looking up to looney toon lifter lol now im hitting bigger PRS!
@BeastBodyBuilding BTW broski your symmetry, proportions i think where better then the guy who beat you and you look more lean / dry / lower bodyfat % then him. He just had like you said 5lbs+ extra muscle on you.
He seems to be a good 20-25lbs heavier than you, Matt. If he's only 10lbs heavier just goes to show how superior his genetics are because his insertions and muscle bellies are far superior than yours.
Still you put on the work, i though you would be more conditioned in the end as well as fuller but good work noneoftheless.
legs and abs pose was always my trickiest one, brought lolz when you didn't even flex them. funny cause you think it'd be the easiest. its obvious Cecil took it with that tan of his, mad props to all.
@Mr8000D Yep. That's something that a lot of people don't consider when judging a lineup. We natural bodybuilders automatically see it and instantly pay credit where its due.
wish i didn't fuck up my wirst... all i wanted was to be doing what you're doing. don't see my wrist getting better as well. oh well time to find a new hobby
@ezravdb i have to give up because my wrist gets in major pain if i workout. been like this for 4 months, and it'll be like this for at least a year, if not for ever.
Hey Matt I was wondering if I was to become a competitive bodybuilder how much would I have to pay for coaches I no alot of people that spend heaps of money for gym member ship and even more personal trainer so do I have to be rich to hire coached?
@snevv Nope, you don't have to be rich man, but I'll be honest coaching CAN run up a pretty big bill. When are you planning on going competitive? I'm currently working on the solution to help many of you guys out there looking for coaching and guidance through bodybuilding.
@flexforall2 i'm 18 and thought i would never be able to come close to you (i'm a tall and lanky build) but now that gives me hope lol, i look hella skinny compared to you but my bench max is 250 and my squat is 325 so maybe one day
