Some people who voted for me the other year did state that they had opted for me over other members who were assisted at the time.

I personally think disclosing any AAS or OPED use is relevant as the bloody things work after all and therefore should effect how progress is judged.
 If I do the comp I may well be assisted myself so I'm not being bitter about assisted competitors.

I agree people on AAS/PED's should disclose as it does make a difference, i'll start:

Omanadren
Primo
Anavar
HGH

This is gonna be a lovely cycle (overkill i know) but.... nya nya nya

Not sure if i'll be using HGH for sure, got some on way gonna try for december and if i like then i will include for full 12 weeks of my proposed cycle in Jan.

This time im really gonna nail diet/cardio, the last time it was all spot on and by week 6 was looking good but it all slipped then, i'd been on AAS on a bulk and then went straight in to the challenge was too much time on couldnt keep up 100%, this time ive had good time off and i was looking to train my ass of in the new year anyway.

Blue you actually have to train as well you know?!

I tried bicep curls the other week it actually went ok, gonna try bench press soon

p.s thats rich coming from someone who has self admittedly not trained in 8 weeks

im in, just ordered my supps, and changed job to fit gym in..lol  this will be a real good motivator..

I'll throw my hat in for this. If I can manage 12 weeks of consistent training I'd feel I'd accomplished something. Seeing some kind of decent progress would just be a bonus TBH.

I'm up for it if my shoulder doesn't fall off.  It's been burning for months when training and after a few heavy sessions it went properly and I've had to have three weeks off !

I think it's rotator cuff... The pain has stopped now but the clicking I've had for a few years got 10x louder and feels uncomfortable when it clicks (everytime I move my arm through a press movement).

That said, I'm fat as **** at the moment and totally out of shape, but I'm getting married on April 3rd and going to go Goa for 10 days.

So I'd rather die than be fat for that, worst case is I end up skinny with no muscle... !!  It would be nice to be skinny again though lol.  I need to lose 2 stone.

Think i'll have a go at this... how do i enter?

Have a read of the rules in the Shape-up forum here  You need to submit photos with evidence of the date taken , i.e. newspaper tv in background with date showing in a thread in the shape-up forum.  You can post regularly in your thread if you like and then post more photos at the end of the 12 weeks.

Thank you... defo going to enter and give it my best shot!!

I'll think about it, because i've finaly started training again, BUT I will just be bulking the whole time, so not sure if it would be worth it.....

I don't think the aim is to cut- the aim is to pick you goal and make as much progress towards it as possible...?

I might just use it as motivation to work on the bulking and core strength then. Cheers!

Is there a prize for highest body fat? haha
