This video was made 3.5 weeks out from my first show since my Open Heart Surgery back in January of 2023. I plan to compete first at the Vancouver Open on July 6th, and then if everything is still going well, I will also compete at the Vancouver International Pro Qualifier July 13th. I am not sure if I will be competing in both Physique and Classic Physique or just Physique this time around, and what categories I will register for? Open? Masters? Grand Masters? We will see closer to the day and how I look...

Right now I feel on track with a body fat percentage in the single digits, I need to get it down at least 3-4 more points to be stage ready. This should not be a problem as I will be losing about 2 pounds of fat per week which will drop my body fat 6-8 pounds. For around every 2 pounds or so of fat, I will drop 1% body fat so this should get me where I want to be come show day.

Now I need to start my posing practice as I am a little rusty with not a lot of time to get the rust out. I feel really good and so far I am not having any food cravings or hunger issues and I still feel I have a good level of energy. As I get closer my diet will become more and more strict so that will change near the end but I should not have to suffer too much!
