LOL threadjacking in progress!
My target is the NPC USAs but I need to requalify first - so possibly the NPC San Jose. I have 3 options for a qualifier. And no I've got a coach, tho I generally train on my own.
Ah, in July - found it! http://www.paullovesvproductions.com/pdf/2010EntryForm.pdf
You competing in middle? What style of precontest do you follow - higher carb, lower carb, high reps, low... ?

LMAO .. um no. I haven't seen < 140 lb in 5 yrs, and that time it was for about 6 hrs for a show. My coach wants me at 139 but we'll see. Last year I competed at 150.
Diet is currently around 2000 cals, ~230 g protein, ~100-150 g carbs, 20-30g fats. Being that its still so far out, I don't want to go too low on the carbs and instead rely on training & cardio. I did a keto approach for 11 months last year for 2 shows and a trip to Cabo for New Years. I think I lost some muscle to it, so going w/ carbs this time. I didn't dial in quite right either so again, going w/ carbs this time and a much longer, slower cut.
Training style - I generally tend to go to 3-4 sets of 8-15 reps depending on the lift. My lifts are at a point where I have a problem going heavier w/o a spotter, so I modify w/ higher reps or alternating leg work to maintain something like comparable volume if I could lift heavier. Higher reps will come into play as I get much closer. And I spent 10-20 min posing just about every nite.
How odd - you cut exactly the opposite of how I do. I go higher fat, much lower volume as I get leaner.
However, you compete while I just go shopping for clothes LOL!
SO low in the fats though. I'd DIE.

Keto & non-keto are two very distinctly different approaches. If you're going keto, you don't have the glycogen available for any sort of burst of energy or high rep anything. I'd get lightheaded when trying to go ultra heavy on the leg press or get winded quickly when trying to do anything more than a walk pace on the treadmill when I was doing keto.
This time around I'm including kickboxing & boxing conditioning classes for cardio right now - primarily because my knees suck enough that I can't really do interval cardio - and I doubt there's any way I could make it thru an hour of heavy bag work on a keto diet.
It has its place and works better for some than for others.
A cyclical dieting plan where you manipulate carbs (mostly) in conjuntion with periodical training schemes to reach sub levels of bodyfat.

Try beating it left handed. 
Sassy, you seriously need to read this. You???ve tried both the low carb, low volume and the higher carb, higher volume approaches.
UD2.0 takes advantage of the best of both.
