Hi Guys,

Thought I'd introduce myself briefly...I've been training a long time, started at 17, now 37, twenty years wow.

I guess I have been less than regular in the last 10 or so years (after my last show), but I want to get more serious and start to compete again. Back when I started I also worked at a gym so I had the opportunity to be quite serious, winning 13 titles and competing 17 times as a Junior and Open classes, some NZFBB and some NABBA, got the trophies collecting dust some where in our garage now.

Currently at 5'10ish I'm weighing 118kg, arms are around 19 cold and legs at 30, don't measure anything else; guts isn't too big at the moment. I think if I can get my diet right and keep training consistently I could really progress. I guess the main reason to come here was to get motivated to get me back into the swing of things seriously.

Anyhow, nice to be here and I hope to post responses to topics where I can.

Regards,

QZ

Gidday man - those are some pretty impressive numbers! Are you planning on competing again soon?

...guts isn't too big at the moment...

Can't say the same about mine. :pfft:

G'day mate, I'm new here too. Wow you got some some impressive measurements.

Welcome!

Thanks for the welcome guys, I appreciate it.

Pseudonym, I’ll be looking at competing in the next 18 months or so in a natural comp. I guess I’m like most bodybuilders, I can always do with more size (I have never felt big, I may have Body dysmorphic disorder!), so like I said, I have to get more consistent, no more weeks when I only train twice and only eat 3 meals in a day .

It’s interesting reading through the posts here to see Mike Kingsnorth is still around and is a Pro (Good on ya fella). I remember competing against Mike in my first show, I was 3rd and he was 4th I think….good times, that was the Jr Mr Northland back in 1990 (I think). Those were the days when Top Shape Gym on the North Shore was a great place to train, sadly it’s gone now but I still see Peter Hardwick occasionally.

Take Care,

QZ
