needsize 10 weeks out...critiques welcome

[needsize]

I'm now just over 10 weeks out from my first show, just a level 1 show. These pics were taken today, I tested at 9% bf, so still have 4-5% to go. For some reason the lighting makes the one side look bigger, in this pic my smaller arm (smaller by 1/4") actually looks bigger than the other...oh well, you get the idea. And I know, the calves suck...

my posing sucks, I didnt bring my lats out near enough in this pic

 

[needsize]

with the lighting, now the other arm looks bigger

looking great! in the first, and third pic your waist looks really tiny

need more calves though.

 

[bigerisbetter]

nice. Your right your calves need improvement but most of ours do. Do you do chins? They will help to widen your lats. You should be able to drop another 4% in 10 weeks. Are you on anything right now? Keep up the good work and good luck at your show it takes guts to step on that stage.

Looking real good. More traps and lats in the future. Also, how's the chest? Did you do a most muscular?

You look like shit. In fact, I can stack shit 5'9" and it will come out being better built than you. JUST JOKING. You look great, and bring up your calves because stupid judges are picky. Good luck with the contest.

Yea looking good, work those calves and post some pics of your results. You should do good dropping %fat and size on calves.

Thanks guys. The calves are a given, no matter what I do the bastards wont grow. The back actually looks better than in these pics, I just cant pose, although I'm working on it(this is the guy that deadlifts 500lbs for sets of 10, the videos still around here somewhere).


Heres a shot of the chest, taken at 16 weeks out

I don't have much calves either. I can pose pretty well but I damn sure can't deadlift 500 for 10 so more power to ya.
How much weight have you dropped so far?
