Just thought I would try posting a pic, seeing as I've never done it and never competed. Anyone think I should give it a shot? I know I have some major weak points, but I've been fighting some hard genetics for a long time. Sorry I didn't show my legs in this pic.

Yeah, you could certainly compete if the legs are up to par. Chest could use more thickness, but we all have things that need to be improved. Doing a local show could be a very good start. Fairly lean too.

I'm not sure how much I weighed in this pic. Maybe 180-185lbs. I'm just starting to bulk up again, but I gain weight extremely slowly, otherwise it just goes to my waist. I'll hopefully get around to taking some new pictures very soon. Thanks for the compliments and encouragement.

Pretty jack'd. How much do you whey?
I only use whey protein with breakfast and post workouts. I currently hit the weights once every 3-4 days for about 15 minutes, so I use about 30 grams of whey a day aside from lifting days. On those days, I use about 90 grams. As you can tell, I'm a huge Heavy Duty advocate.

i dont know if i read this completely wrong, but 15mins every 3 or 4 days? Also 90grams of whey is highly unnessary, 40grams is about the max your body can digest at once ne ways. Clarification is needed bro.

You read correctly. I'm a Heavy Duty advocate. I train for about 15-20 minutes every 3-4 days.
As far as my whey protein use, I meant I use 90 grams TOTAL on lifting days. On none lifting days I only use it at breakfast. Post workout, I take in about 60. How much the body can utilize at any given time is dependant on the individual and situation. Also there is no proof showing what kind of average a certain amount of muscle can absorb at a given time, especially post-training.
Do I think 60 is more then enough? Yes, but I suppose I take in excess carbs post workout too. I don't think it hurts anything (unless I'm cutting) and I'm sure my bases are covered in this way.
I have come here to do two things, kick ass, and chew bubble gum

If you're lifting balls to the wall 15-20 minutes is all you need.

Those are the HIT principles. Get in, hit it hard, and get the hell out. Not a big fan myself but have tried many different approaches to it from time to time and it was great for a change up to my routine.
