No excuses, just wasn't real focused or dedicated this month.

Well bro, you sure as hell got the size, now it's up to you to do something with it. Only 3 months left, get crackin, you should have been in the Open Division with your size

I agree with Viper. You should be in the open. You're growing some guns there I see.

Towards the beginning of the contest I had mentioned that I was thinking about competing in the open, but I just was a little unsure because I have never done any type of bodybuilding and I have never used any supplements besides protein powder. Right now I am kicking myself because I have not cut the weight that I need to to compete in any class. I've only got three months to get my head right and lose weight and only about 7 months before I originally planned to actually step on a stage in a competition. I will strongly consider your suggestions and try to get myself more committed to my nutrition.

I'm in the same boat as you. I have to lose about 30 lbs. to get into shape for the IMPC. So that is about 10 lbs. a month, plus a little drying out in the last week.

If you're planning on competing, you should definitely do what I'm doing and set your cut goal for November. That will give you a window of 3-4 months to build back up any lost muscle composition for your stage appearance.
