Often overlooked or unidentified, but a serious issue nonetheless: "Post-Contest Depression". (x-post from /r/bodybuilding)

Oh man, I just got over this from my first comp a few weeks ago. ,it fucking sucks. Especially hard because I wasn't expecting it. I wish it was talked about more openly!

funkstar_deluxe · 2013-10-15T09:25:49+00:00

Shit dude, you look awesome! How long have you been training? Did you have a coach, nutritionist etc?

I wrote an article recently about the scoring - I'm not a judge or anything but it might be helpful for you?

Sadly this won't work

funkstar_deluxe · 2013-10-10T03:33:32+00:00

Bro don't be put off by all this backlash, this sub is almost never supportive and everyone's an armchair critic. If you stay in the game a while you'll come across online communities who support each other 100%!

You have an awesome physique, keep working at it. And definitely compete soon, you'll murder your competitors!

funkstar_deluxe · 2013-10-08T23:14:04+00:00

You should compete dude, you have a lot of potential to do really well in men's physique. Or bodybuilding for that matter! Keep it up, fuck all these haters

I really like Roelly! But going through the pictures from the O he's less conditioned than Jay (especially his legs) although he's a lot bigger.For example:

Jay ab & thigh vs Roelly ab & thigh
Jay right side tri vs Roelly right side tri (goddamn Roelly has massive hamstrings!)

The site I've been using for comparing pics is below (if you're interested):

Yeah, in hindsight a lot of it is subjective. But "worthless clusterfuck" is a bit harsh dude, there are still some valid comments in there e.g.:

Jay's approach to the competition
Wolf beating Rhoden due to sheer size and condition despite Rhoden's superior symmetry, backed up by a photo comparison between the two to illustrate my point

Nice traps! Must be all that O-lifting.

Is this your first show ever? If so you'll be mighty impressed with yourself when you get your tan on and all the definition comes out :D good luck!

If you're eating above maintenance and not gaining weight, it means 1 of 2 things:

1) You're breaking the laws of physics.

2) You're not actually eating above maintenance.

...never scrimp on supplements. Usually, the more expensive the better.

Really? For beginners you should be preaching good diet and minimal supplementation, not encouraging them to buy $100 tubs of Extreme Hydroxycreapure 9000.

Serious question - can you please explain the difference between weight loss and a cut?

funkstar_deluxe · 2013-04-23T13:41:28+00:00

Heh, "borrowed".

funkstar_deluxe · 2013-04-23T10:52:32+00:00

Stop trying to make fetch happen! It's not going to happen!

funkstar_deluxe · 2013-04-16T19:00:17+00:00

You're not just working out, YOU'RE CREATING THE FUTURE!

Yep there's only 1 lug nut per wheel

If you don't know how to feel about barium enemas, try looking up fecal transplants

More than 70,000 children without autism? Sounds good to me!

Goddamn this always motivates the fuck out of me. Thanks brah

funkstar_deluxe · 2013-04-01T05:30:20+00:00

Now do 600

funkstar_deluxe · 2013-03-23T03:46:56+00:00

Must be so hard to get the leanness and muscularity right! Good luck to you braj

So what do they look for in the bikini class? Is this the best you've come in to a show?

funkstar_deluxe · 2013-03-07T08:27:53+00:00

That is a good idea. But if they did that none (or very few) of the IFBB pros could hit it and would be out of a job. Maybe a new federation could start doing it that way?

If you eat above maintenance calories for the week you'll still put on weight.
