Road to the Canadian Nationals - 4 weeks Out - What is my Game Plan?

In this Road to the Canadian Nationals 4 weeks out update video I talk about what I need to do in a very short amount of time to get ready for my next challenge which will be meeting all the top 5 winners from each province and of course all the guys that placed along side me in the BC Championships. This is going to take things up a notch and so I need to come in even more prepared for the Canadian Nationals.

My plan is to try and put on a couple more pounds of muscle which is doable since after a cut your body gets super anabolic and absorbs everything you put into it and wants to convert it into mass. The trick is making sure that mass is mostly muscle and not so much fat :) I will be treading a very fine line of trying to add some weight but not let it get out of hand or I may not be able to cut enough of the fat to come in conditioned at the end of it all.

Headed to the Canadian Nationals in 4 Week!

I'm all signed up and headed to the Canadian Nationals this August 13th 2016 so in 4 weeks time! I will be representing British Columbia (BCABBA) in both Men's Masters and Open Physique classes. This years Canadian Nationals are held right here in my own back yard in New Westminster at the Massy Theatre so if you are local then buy some tickets and come on out and support me!

For now I have my work cut out for me, the plan is to come in just as shredded as I did for the BC's but perhaps with a couple extra pounds of muscle, not an easy task to say the least but I am up for the challenge :)

Vancouver Pro Am - BC Championships - Mens Physique Awards

Here is the final chapter in my last Men's Physique Fitness Contest where I competed at the Vancouver Pro Am - BC Championships in both Men's Physique Masters and Men's Physique Open "D" Division which is the tall class. As I have already mentioned in previous posts, I placed 1st in my age category which is Masters 40+. I am 47 after all so I have earned this right :) I also qualified at my last Victoria Cup Competition to enter in the Open division with the younger folk and low and behold I got a second place finish this time around and I have to say that all the competitor in both Masters and Open where in great shape and made it that much more special placing where I did since it was no cake walk.

All of this basically means I am moving onward to the Canadian National competition held on August 13 2016 in New Westminster BC. That's not a long time to get ready but since I am kind of already somewhat ready and will be experiencing a rebound effect from my recent cut, I hope to put on a couple more pounds for my next show, this is going to take some serious hard work but I may never get another opportunity like this again so I will rise to the challenge and prevail :)

Vancouver Pro Am - BC Championships - Mens Physique Prejudging

I think most everyone now knows where I placed in the Vancouver Pro Am - BC Championships - Men's Physique Masters and Open classes. Well now you can watch the competition prejudging video and decide for yourself how you think I did. Everyone on stage looked awesome out there so in honor to all the competitors and their hard work, I decided to include all of the show footage my wife took so if they happen to stumble on this video, they will get to see themselves in action even if only for some of it.

I will follow-up this video very shortly with the Awards portion for Men's Physique Masters and Open Divisions so make sure to check back.
