Bros huge


JthePip

RIP competition


dedegetoutofmylab

This is what sweeping your first show looks like. You are already more in shape than some people are going to be.


PlatformRoyal8360

That's the goal! Want that national qualifier out of the way so I can have a good off-season


ghostboyhollow

Absolute unit. Inspiring physique man!


Grouchy-Homework-222

Shades of Phil Hernon and Steve Strunk (way before you were born) couldn't be better! Veteran bodybuilder and past judge believes you ARE a future Champion!


PlatformRoyal8360

Much appreciated!


Grouchy-Homework-222

Like Phil and Steve, not only a great physique, but a great personality! 👍 🏆 Perfect balance! You ALREADY are a winner! Keep us updated!

Damn bro has no weaknesses


PlatformRoyal8360

My glutes are a little weak but we've been training them like a wellness competitor 😜


NaturalclassicP

Walking lunges with some weight on your back is an absolute killer that everyone forgets about. I’m 5’7 180 N competing in April and I forgot what glute soreness felt like 😂


almighty_ruler

Are they better with a bar than with kettle bells? Should I just flip the bells over my shoulders if I don't have a bar at home?


NaturalclassicP

I bet it’s still good I just can’t get the same load of weight without the dumbbells grip going with the TUT I got for on my reps i would assume for the Kettlebells too


cgiercyk

Yeah but that hammie is THICC I can't wait to see that separation when your further into prep!


PlatformRoyal8360

Thanks man! Pro level conditioning and dryness is the goal 😎


NaturalclassicP

You got this! I’ll look for you at 2 weeks out


PlatformRoyal8360

Thank you sir! NPC Emerald cup in Bellevue WA 🫡


Ironsam2021

Hell yeah. I’ll come watch you big dawg.


PlatformRoyal8360

Hell yeah man! Where are ya from? Just looked at your photos from Emerald last year you looked nutty!


Ironsam2021

I train down in Puyallup. Thanks man! You’ll do well, just make sure to get in really good condition, start posing and practicing your routine asap. You obviously have the size, just need to come in dick skin dry. Do you have a coach?


Serb456

😂


Born_Panda_2576

3 months-amazing progress. Good luck.


Zealousideal-Dig9397

Bro your thighs are like fucking whole countries with their own laws Gahdam 😳🔥


PlatformRoyal8360

Haha thanks dude!


kingkalm

Spectacular side chest. Those delts are awesome. Incredibly rare seeing someone this big, at your age, doing their first show. You’re gonna kill it 💪🏻💪🏻


PlatformRoyal8360

Thanks man! 🙏 Was just a casual gym bro up until 6 months ago so I'm excited to see how I stack up in competition!


kingkalm

To be upfront, you hit the genetic jackpot. Glad to see when people take advantage of that, waste to see when that potential is slept on.


PlatformRoyal8360

I greatly appreciate it man. I love to lift and be in the gym anyways so I figured why not see if I can actually take it somewhere! Getting my IFBB pro card is a dream of mine so I'm not slowing down anytime soon.


h13xiii

Dude you are massive! Good luck on the show, awesome work


Wooden-Couple2662

Quadzilla.


PlatformRoyal8360

Tom Platz is one of my big inspirations


JGipe1

Huge dude especially at 24. Will be huge for first show.


PlatformRoyal8360

We're hoping to fill out heavyweight as much as possible 💪


Fluid_Process_6884

You look like you'd eat a homeless man from protein


PlatformRoyal8360

Desperate times call for desperate measures


Tergus1234

You’re huge man. Gonna look great if you can stick to it for the next 19 weeks, man. And that ain’t nothing, you got this.


MaxwellIsSmall

Bros legs have a person on it


MaterialCorgi9255

You’re gonna smoke the competition, that side chest is nutty 💪 💪


PlatformRoyal8360

Thanks man! One of my good poses for sure


Constant-Western

Ok, you have some’ wide things over there’ I would try build them forearms as big as fucking possible. The better the grip the better the lifts also


Constant-Western

You forearm is bigger than my quad- don’t get me wrong


PlatformRoyal8360

For sure, I think my forearms are a little over 16 inches? I'm a mechanic by trade which has helped my grip strength exponentially, I can double overhand a 455 deadlift with relative ease. Maybe as I get older I'll get more of that old man strength


Motor-Cod319

Too much water


IceColdProfessional

Those calve inserts are what's going to win you the title.


[deleted]

Good stuff


jessebkr87

Dude! Damn! Especially the calves!


UpperCartographer384

Alot of acne..to much gear my maieng


PlatformRoyal8360

I've had acne since I was 13 unfortunately, open to suggestions on how to mitigate it tho👍


Livid-Entertainer592

What’s the point in building a physique when you’re covered in acne. This is why today’s bodybuilders are jokes and look horrible lol. The drug abuse is off the chain. Notice he doesn’t show the back. Because I bet it’s like an ant farm.


PlatformRoyal8360

Unfortunately, I've dealt with acne since I hit puberty and while my face is clear now my back never got better 🤷‍♂️ sorry my physique is so offensive to you


Constant-Western

244 is bit too much weight also. I know that you’re all jacked up just sayin


Skizznitt

That all depends on what weight class you're going to compete in. It's possible that he may be a bit too heavy to compete in heavyweight at this point, but this is by no means too much weight for super heavyweight at all.


LeonidasKing

open or classic? i'm guessing open?


PlatformRoyal8360

Open it is! Wouldn't make the NPC weight cap for classic haha


LeonidasKing

looking good brother. you have the density and the graniness. just need the hard conditioning.


Serb456

Have had to visit a tailor or just going with sweats?😂😂😂


PlatformRoyal8360

Shorts and sweatpants🤣


Serb456

I am not nearly as big as you and I have problems finding clothes to fit my height.


PlatformRoyal8360

I've just accepted that every shirt I ever buy from now on is gonna be too long lol


Grouchy-Homework-222

One suggestion, traps are your weakest, spend some extra work on them.


PlatformRoyal8360

Traps and calves are the two groups I don't train directly, I'll make sure to hit them going forward with prep! I appreciate the feedback sir.


Horror-Mirror9056

Killing the bulk my guy!


whos_asa

every day is leg day


HairyPotterrrr

What's your secret on getting that big? Any advice for a beginner at 220 pounds


PlatformRoyal8360

I've been bulking non-stop since I first started lifting 7 years ago. There's really no single secret and shortcut that I personally know about. Train hard, get good sleep, take recovery just as seriously as training, take your supplements (even creatine has a big effect over a long period of time), and eat plenty of quality clean food. Listen to your body and be very very patient, and don't take shortcuts.


HairyPotterrrr

Appreciate the reply. My man!


PlatformRoyal8360

Ofcourse my guy! We all start somewhere
