That was kind of my thought too, but it's hard to tell from the pics. I had a similar issue when I was trying to 'get ripped,' and the solution was to change my protein shake. I had been using one with a calorie/energy supplement along with the protein, and at the end of the day, I was way above what I should have been for calories. (I was eating a lot, so I got enough calories that way).
So I switched to a pure protein shake with no calorie supplement. I think one glass was only 90 calories instead of 600 or so. I think it was "Designer Whey" - tasted pretty good too. |
i'm using syntrax's nectar protein, it's great and tastes like juice. no carbs, no fat, just 23g of whey isolate per scoop :D. |

I've seen good things about that stuff too. I just think it's wise to stay away from those combo drinks. Hell, some people get heart palpitations from the EAS stuff. |

From the looks of those pic's I'd say you might have the size but you need to drop a lot more bodyfat in order to be contest ready.
You might try limiting your calories even further, even though you'll lose energy and be hungry all the time. It's the price you have to pay for getting ripped.
Just a liitle friendly advide from a fellow athlete. |

mi amigo the bodybuilder usually cuts to 4% fat before competitions. He does a week of calorie restricting and then he fasts the two days before the competition. Every time he is gonna go you can see all the veins in his stomach and everything. After that he goes back to a healthy 8%.
I dont remember if youre doing a competition, but i thought it was mentioned. if not, ignore me. |

could use a bit of work on the forearms
try holding a clean or bench bar with a bit of weight behind your back and down by your ass, just hanging. then curl yoour wrists up backwards, like, oppisite way you would if you were to floor a motorcycle. this will build up strength fast, and bulk. |

what kinda contest is it? that's gonna make a big difference ;)
you definitely need to lose some fat before it. it was already asked, but i didn't see an answer...how far away is the contest. judging the pics i would say you need to lose another 10-15lbs of body fat. what is your weight right now? what weight class where you going to be in? heavy weight? middle weights? |

Shane...take this criticism as constructive, buddy.
What you really need to focus on is fat burning, because you have way too much body fat to be concerned with a contest at this point. Contest bodybuilders spend a few months bulking up as much muscles as they can, targeting EVERY specific muscle group and working each muscle to the greatest extent, then about 12 weeks out, start dieting down to strip their body fat.
However, you would have way too much bodyfat to strip down for a contest. So, my suggestion is that you keep training the way you are, but stop eating like . Cut out the saturated fats and sweets. Grill your chicken, don't fry it. No breading. Drink water instead of soda or juice. No ty condiments, especially mayonnaise. Mustard is the best, ketchup is okay also.
For more specific information, here's a document I've created over the past year or two from my own knowledge:

youre asking for advice on the wrong forum bro :) bb.com forums are good, stay there for advice. this is a music junkie forum, people on here have no idea what they are talking about.
good work though |
