How many of you compete

[Quadsweep]

I am curious as to how many of you are competitive. Do you use gear just to be big for yourself, To compete in BB competition, Powerlifting, Or collage - pro sports?

I don't compete and don't have any intentions to start any time soon. I do have "mock" competitions were I diet just like any other pre-contest bodybuilder for a specific event like a vacation.

I've learned a great deal about my body with these mock pre-contest preparations.

I'm thinking about doing a competition next june,It would be my first so will have to see how the next 2 bulking cycles go...

I would like too...but I'm so close to the masters division...think I will wait a little bit.

I first started to get that big D-1 scholarship. Tore my acl, mcl, and miniscus and lost all offers. Got surgery. Continued use in hopes of competing one day. Tore my knee again. Now will never be able to because of size difference between good knee and bad knee is about 2 inches.

Did 3 NPC National qualifers from '94 to '00, along with a couple local shows during the same time. Had 3rd back surgery in 2000 and both knees scoped in '03 so trying to get size back hoping I might be able to compete in Master's Division in two years. If I can't, just hoping to get back to same size I used to be-need about another 20 lbs!

Im competitive
3 2nd place finishes in a row so far all in NQ shows

im going to win the next one I enter though(next week)

then ill take a year or 2 off....gain about 50-60 lbs of muscle and compete nationally
I figure @ 6'1 Ill need to be tioppin the scales @ near 290-300 lbs to get my pro card
Man, Grocery stores in my area are gonna love it when I come in!!!

I have'nt competed as yet, but as BigAndy does, I compete for myself. Its attention more than anything. Walking through a busy city centre on a sunny saturday afternoon, and seeing and feeling every eye of a female scanning you. Its a great feeling!!!
