So here I am 2 days after the show and couldnt be happier. A lil pissed but still happy...lol. I won the Open Super Heavyweight Class and took 2nd in the Overall Show. I havent seen all the pictures yet but from what I have seen I couldnt be happier. The improvements I have made in not even a full years time since my last show are phenomenal in my eyes. My psoing was better than the first show and all was on point. I ahve no regrets. As far as my 2nd place showing for the overall show well lets just say some politcis and favortism may have come into play. Im not one to make excuses but the heavyweight who beat me for the overall title did train at the gym and knew the guy runnuing the show. When I was backstage pumping up I was comparing myself to him and not to take anything away from him but I know I was better than him on this day. People after the show, not just my family and freinds, came up to me and said I was robbed. But you know what fuck it, just adds more fuel to the fire for me. Ill be back on stage and will bust my ass once again with no handouts. The show all together was a let down to me, totallly unorganized. Nothing like the first show I did which was a smaller show. Shit they had some 12 year old kid who was one of teh promoters sons telling us when to get ready. Kids voice was so fuckin annoying and he was fucking up big time with peoples numbers and names. Was a total shitshow behind the curtains. As far as now goes, I am taking the week off from training and still following somewhat of a strict diet but if I want to have something I will. Then come next Monday its back to teh gym and back on the heavy grind. I plan to take a full year to add more size and shape to my physique and then come next April I will sit down with my trainer and decide on a show to do. Right now I am just enjoying another win and getting back in touch with all those I have put on the backburner in the final few weeks of the prep. As soon as the pics get posted online I will post up the link for everyone to check out. Just wanted to thank everyone here for all of teh support you guys gave me. So great to be part of such a great onlne family. Truly am blessed with all I have in life.
