BIGMD's Pro Debut, Texas August 09

[bigmd]

Well only 11 weeks to go, am pretty happy with the way things are going esp considering the week i had. Full of a head cold and then i had a lady run a red light and rip off the front of my ute, so a couple of days off training and mucked up eating!

[Bobsta]

Looking great Mike, cant say the same bout your Truck though!

Looking at your pics Mike you look pretty much ready now even though you still got 11 weeks to go, is your strategy to lose Body fat (not that theres much left) very slowly? and if so is your LBM slightly increasing during this time doing it this way?

[Luigi]

sharpening up nicely shame about the ute, bet she shat herself when you hopped out ...

also wondering if your adding any mass or strictly maintaining while losing bf%

[Marcus]

Looking awesome Mike, you're really tightening up & still 11 weeks out. :shock: What's your training split like and have you changed anything up?

[BainTrain]

jokes bro, i would been gutted if my pride and joy got smashed into

[weener lad]

:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: I know it's only a Ford but it will be sadly missed by this Holden driver. Shame it's life had to finish so early :pfft:

Looking bloody good fella :clap:

Hi All 10 weeks to go,You will notice the return of the Camo trunks, a special request from Mike K that he likes them and he wanted to see them again, and keeping within the good sportsman ship between mike k and myself, i thought that id keep him happy (the pleading texts are driving me mad)

nice one Mike, the wider your Back gets (and its pretty wide and full) I'd like to see a bigger sweep on those wheels in the front shot, or toes out more?

Looking forward to seeing you up in Auckland next month on stage :clap:

[Optimass]

Your lower back is outstanding - great thickness. Abs are coming in great ...

Mike you know I'm no expert, but I kinda agree with Android. I was wondering whether you should try playing around with your foot positions a bit. Your abs & thigh pic definately shows your legs off better because your feet are a lot closer of course. Perhaps you could have a look at one of your competitors DJ below & how he uses is toes upright to hit them. You have a relatively long torso so poses where the arms are in front seems to me to be the best attack at symmetry & illusion. However this does not negate the compulsories. Perhaps some experts might chime in on that. Otherwise you have done a good job on condition & definition to date & it will be interesting if the "Boss" throws you a bowl of brown rice or two in the next few weeks AND you might like to jump in with me on trap sessions in the next 10 weeks :grin:

[mr natural]

one other small point IMO is your side chest pose, perhaps pull in a little more air into your chest and pull you arm back a fraction more, will help move the air from down low upwards to make your chest ect.. look bigger and your waist smaller

[bigmd]

:wink: My god you guys are going to do me out of a job, with all this advice. i do appreciated it, but as you could imagion much of the weekly photos are for my own critiquing. U guys are a tough bunch im glad ur not judging!

[Android]

LOL you're right...sorry Mike but I would never make it as a judge, hence why I love critiquing Pros on public forums....would it be too much to ask you to get your teeth whitened and remove that earing....oh and .......... too much?

ROFFL! :pfft: Dam Android you are getting a bit pedantic now. I don't think they judge you on the colour of your teeth do they. Don't worry they will come up whiter when he gets a tan! :grin:

[bigmd]

9 weeks to go F U C K ! ! ! :wink:

Hows is the leg sweep lads?

Like the new curtains nice ah?Gretchen has been redecoration lol. up satying in a batch in the sounds this weekend, makes a nice change for the weekend, right off to blenheim to brake some weights!

[pimp]

looking mean...You sitting under 100 now?

[genetic freek]

Going for the cave man look bro.

[musclenz]

Outside sweep better with the heels slightly closer.

I reakon that Desmond Miller has got a 'killer" side chest pose. Check him out here. Uses his body angle to make best of not only chest but delts & arms & leg placement is perfect to show the depth of the thigh & leg bicep.

[bigmd]

looking mean...You sitting under 100 now?

Just under pretty much 99kg +/- .2kg

Going for the cave man look bro.

[mr natural]

your waist looks like its come down alittle more again,In a way it makes your torso look longer.
