Looking great Mike! But I thought you said you wanted to train without dieting down for a year or more to be able to gain more mass? How comes you're leaning out again?
I wanted to see what I could bring to the stage when I'm no longer a teen.
I only did 1 show last year and gave me some good time to make some decent gains and prep for the same show the following year (now)
Although I was happy with my efforts last year, I simply wasnt satisfied with what I brought and knew I could do better / bring something better.
THE GOAL is to compete in 2-3 shows this summer and take 2014 off completely and compete summer of 2015 in sight of a natty pro q.
Optimally I would have taken this year off but I'm still hungry to bring my best package so its a final straw until I take a true year off from competing.
@ face comment -

My face changes so much during prep, facial hair grows slower and my baby face becomes more prominent.
