Despite the fact i had planned to have a long offseason away from competing, i have decided to get my national qualification over with..and enter the 2010 eastern usa..oct 9th..in new york city! im not sure if they will be implmenting a welterweight division..so i may enter the lightweight class and in doing so will go above and beyond any conditioning i have put forth previously. although ive not lost a lightweight class in the 8 years ive competed..i still havent gone above the state level or come in completely rock hard. ive never had any assistance in the form of a coach before...and although ill still be managing my training myself..i have teamed up with nationally ranked top 4 welterweight Daniel Rocha (2009 rochester welterwt champ) for this contest prep. the eastern usa is considered one of the top 3 toughest non national amature shows in the country. most of the athletes are national contestants..most have coaches..and use this show as a qualifier. Daniel has assured me between the two of us..i will come in better than ever..and take my class. he is currently 7 weeks out from the npc usa in july(the 2nd top national show -4 pro cards awarded)..and our motivation combined should keep this thing running perfectly till we get it done. starting weight is 185lbs..not sure exact bodyfat but mostlikely 9-10%. im currently 17 weeks out..i have never dieted more than 10 weeks..this time we are taking a longer more planned approach..ive already started..and will post updates periodically.17 weeks to the show.....!

after 5 weeks of dieting im currently 11 weeks out from the eastern USA. this is BY FAR the leanest ive been at 11 weeks out..or anywhere near 11 wks from a show. abs are in and hams and glutes are starting to show lines.. bodyweight is hovering around 173...which leaves 19lbs to go in order to make the lightwt class. im gaining lean tissue as im dieting which is always a great thing..but as of rt now ill hv to be peeled to the bone to make the class...all part of the plan anyhow.
