Great job! You look amazing! You never know with judges but 2nd place for your first show is pretty damn respectable!

Yo finished 2nd in my class. I was a little disappointed. We all thought I took the class but oh well. The only pic I have right now is one from right before I went on stage. View attachment 111683
I had a blast. Can't wait to do another one. I loved everything about the whole weekend. The atmosphere, all the competitors, the venue, the food. It was awesome

Amazing job, bro! Don't be disappointed at all! 2nd place is incredible for your first show.

What class did you end up in and what was your stage weight?I'm a little curious since we are around the same stats and height if I remember correctly (I'm 5'9"). I'm guessing you ended up the middle of light heavies. That's probably where I will end up next time I compete, but just curious where you ended up. I am hesitant to compete at the middle or lower end of a class, but since you got 2nd that is pretty impressive and gives me some assurance.

I did novice. Middle weight went up to 187. I weighed in at 182. I'm 5'10

Awesome. Very close to probably where I will end up stage weight. Middleweight isn't 176 anymore? Is it 187 everywhere?

In novice it is 168-187 because they only have 3 classes. It's 176 in open. If I was conditioned a little bit more i could have been under 176. I started carbing up on Thursday. If I held off on the carbs till after weigh inns and been just a little leaner I could have been under 176. Next year I'm hoping to compete in middle weight at the top of the class conditioned right. I'm excited to get to work this off season
