MT Shape-Up Challenge in the New Year!! Now prizes for 2nd and 3rd!!

Count me in, I'll try and finish this one. I don't want to be known as the new cardifflad lol

Doesn't everyone say whether they were assisted or not anyway? People can then judge for themselves how impressive the results were.

Given people cheat in natural competitions, and that I've read people on here say that they would, I don't think that it would make 1 jot of difference anyway!!

I dont think some people would appreciate the natural people peoples progress more and just look at it as an overall vote without really caring what they used.

Personally i don't think at this level it's worth worrying about separating groups off - this is a fair forum and the members on the whole are pretty decent people.

Might do this one.. Will be cutting from Jan till April anyways.

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.

Any chance of James or Hazel leading the way and entering this time?

Yes I'm definitely in for this one. Didn't really get started on the last one. AWG did A FANTASTIC JOB in the Natural Section last time it has given me the impetus.

Yeah after I'd been with him it stang when I  wee'd too. Dont worry a quick course of antibiotics soon cleared me up. Next time use protection, I know I will.

I wouldn't ban assistance, simply seperate it into Assisted (prohormones / AS / banned fat burners etc) and none Assisted (eg just whey, creatine etc).

In reality of if anyone inadvertently using an outlawed med (eg synephrine) in a cold med, they wouldn't be using it delibrately and for a significant period of time, unlike some real world competitors who make their money off the sport.

I for one will be using AAS and some peptides from start of Feb next year and a ban on AAS would outlaw me  

Sorry, I should have been clearer, I meant for those in an assisted group should they stick to IOC lists or just for the duration of the SUC.

I quite like the idea of people who use having to disclose it and leaving it at that.  We have to consider the prize too.

But, it's not my call, just adding my 2p.  I'm deligating the running of this entirely to Hazel!!

Im very tempted, tend to blob up alot over xmas and need something to aim for rather than aimlessly cutting!

Jimbo

I'm definitely up for this.
 
Starting my cut on the 4th jan anyway so fits in perfectly.
 
I personally would just keep things as they are and would hope that all assisted folk disclose the fact.
 
We don't want to overcomplicate what is essentially just a bit of fun and motivation to loose the xmas chub.

No.13

As I am running it I can not enter but as for James?

Agree with what's been said about "assisted/un-assisted" 

Personally I'd say if it's allowed in natural comps then they can be classed as un-assisted

Hazel

Does James train then?

I would agree with that... why not put it to a poll?

Hazel

Haha. That James i think is CHECKMATE

As my buddy Detective Alonzo says;

This **** is chess it ain't checkers

Definitely up for it this time round!

I might change my mind as I'll be cutting anyway - it's just the posting pictures of myself looking like soggy packet of trex that I'm less impressed with.

However - at this BF% progress is so much more visible and easier to achieve.




...and I can do that pushy outy belly thing favoured by many a shape up contestant
