Road to OCB: Show Day & Awards/Results !!

This may be a longer video, but I promise you'll find it interesting; especially when you see how structured I am on SHOW DAY, my 10-min pump exercises, physique check, etc.

QUICK BACKGROUND:

After almost 6 years of grinding with my Health, Diet and Strength Training...the day finally arrived for my very first Men's Physique Competition -- at almost 45 years old!

I got below 10% body fat, and in the absolute best shape of my entire life. Totally shredded.

According to my calculations, I did (over last 6 years): +1,200 visits to the gym totaling over 1,800 hours of workout time, +3,000 hours of doing my own meal prep and I lost +40 lbs. since my "Day #1".

For this competition, I entered into 3 divisions for the association called OCB which promoted NATURAL BODY BUILDING. They do both lie detector tests and Urine tests.

The 3 divisions I signed up for were: Novice, Masters 40+ and Open.

In this video I take you really behind the scenes of the day before and day of the show. It was an AMAZING and HARD experience all put together.
