IronMagazine Competition...who wants in?

camarosuper6 · 10-31-2004, 12:39 PM

In case anyone hasn't been in the Camaro vs Johnnny thread, it has turned into a full on IM bodybuilding competition challenge

The challenge is open to anyone until Friday of this week. If you want in, simply post in this thread, but only once please, to make it easier to count and such.

Friday, Nov 5th is the deadline to sign-up.

You may post before and after pics if you wish, but only after pics are required. I would recommend posting both though, so you can see how much you have improved, and allow everyone else see it too! Its not only motivating to yourself, but others on the board.

Keep a strict journal. This allows you to see both what worked well for you and worked against you.

The pictures are due in by March 6th, the Arnold Classic. That gives you nearly 18 weeks to get in tip top shape.

If allowed by Rob, we will post a single thread during the final week and have an IM vote for overall winner, best bodypart, most improved, etc.

Enjoy and motivate yourself and others. This is an excellent tool to motivate people, and yourself. Remember to buckle in for the long haul. 18 weeks is a long time, but it will be here in NO time.

So far I have the following members entered...

Myself, Saturday Fever, Jeanie, Rock, TwinPeak, and GoalGetter.

You won't be able to get much free info on it, but there is a synopsis of it on www.nasm.org in the education menu under OPT. I have a book, but I would have to type it in here which will not happen.

I will start constructing my program today in the diary section. It will change alot in the next week once I get the videos, but the structure will be the same.

Cool thanks. So you had to buy this program?

**Dale Mabry** · 10-31-2004, 05:38 PM

I got the book for free, but I bought the videos to see the proper form of some of the exercises.

Twin Peak · 10-31-2004, 08:38 PM

Who are the judges?

What's the prize?

Rob going to pony up 3-6 months worth of Anabolic Matrix? If he does, maybe I'll throw in $200 worth of Avant products to the winner.

camarosuper6 · 10-31-2004, 08:44 PM

Judges.... I was thinking about having IM members vote. However, maybe we (moderators and contest competitors) should elect a certain number of board members to judge? Any good ideas?

I say, instead of giving all donated awards (I would be glad to donate something, maybe money er whatever) to the overall winner, pick a select product or prize for a certain catagory (for instance LeptiGen Mass for the strongest, Anabolic matrix for the most ripped, etc)

I would be glad to donate 25 bucks or something for the cause..

What are you guys's ideas.

tryintogetbig · 10-31-2004, 09:33 PM

I love the idea, the before and after pics of the previous comp were really motivating. COUNT ME IN!!!!

What are some of the rules or guidelines, just take pics and measurements along the way?? Most improved at the end of 18 weeks wins???

greekblondechic · 10-31-2004, 10:19 PM

Is it only for those trying to gain size or strength, or can us cutters participate too?

CRASHMAN · 10-31-2004, 11:19 PM

buy in for 20$ or 30$ a neutral mod or Robert keeps hold of the money. Winner of contest takes the prize money plus the supp sponsors contributions.

I'm in for 20$ or more 30$

1.)we do need to elec a board of NON-biased judges

2.)An official thread, list of members entered, and rules a regs; the thread will have to links to all members journals which will consist of their before pics

3.)journal musts: before pics, Weights, sizes, and body fat percent(if possible)
-Pics will consist of general poses, pictures of muscles being measured, and something in the before pic that says the date.
