Hey Quadsweep,
I didn't recognize your picture, but saw that you competed in the Jr USA as a lightheavyweight. I was also a lightheavyweight in 1998. Did you compete in it that year?
I actually bombed out (my own fault). I did the Protein/fat diet that year as it was popular with national level competitors at that time. The diet went well, I got lean and maintained more muscle and strength than the traditional method, but all hell broke loose in the last 48 hours. My cells would not fill up at all, no matter what I ate. I think it is a great diet for casual use to get lean, but I will NEVER do that again for a show!! It took me years of regional shows to master the diet for my body, and then I went and f**ked myself up by doing something completely new for the bigger one.
It looks like these boards will never be the same with the unwanted publicity. However, I gotta let you in on a little 411. My competitive career was murdered (maybe, maybe not...hehehe) as a result (indirectly) of messin around on the boards long, long before the article on business week!! Got busted, had to submit to drug testing and group therapy with ACTUAL drug addicts, for almost a year- totally ridiculuous, but I took the deal as it was my best option without going to work for them, which by the way, they tried like hell to get me to do. Anyway, during the bust at my house (1.5 years ago), they were immediately very interested in my computer, which they ended up taking with them as evidence. It seems to me that they were hip to the boards long before the article, just because of what i observed about the actions of the task force during my misfortune. I am sure they got quite a further education out of my pc too. I had my user id's set to auto login, all my lists from sources, copies of emails and all that crap. Needless to say, phil763 is a new name.
