Are there any bodybuilders on RallyPoint?

7.53K

On March 4, 2015, I decided to pursue bodybuilding. I was 165 lbs. when I started and now I am 190 lbs. I still passed my APFT (at 181 lbs./first time to ever get taped) and surprisingly my sit-ups improved. My overall being is better than before. I eat better and definitely sleep better than my old insomniac self. It is also one of a few positive outlets that help me coup with PTSD.

I vouched to compete as a natural bodybuilder in 2017 (still working on those calves). Any tips, advice from those who have competed in BB would be greatly appreciated. As a certified fitness trainer, I am pretty keen on exercises but can still heed to a few formulas in shaping my body. Currently I am at a bulking phase (200 grams of protein; 100+ carbs; and minimal fat but I I do get more out of Omega 3 and Almonds).

Try "Arnold's Encyclopedia of Bodybuilding" this is a comprehensive book of knowledge about bodybuilding. It includes all exercises and diet plans. It also prepares you for competition. I have been following this program for about a month now and recently maxed out my PT test as well as gaining 10 pounds of muscle. Check it out !

I have been looking at this post for a couple hours and surprised nobody has replied. I am not a body builder but I wish you luck on your goal!

Started a new bodybuilding regiment beginning this month as a pre 2023 New Year's Resolution. Not to get huge bulging competitive bodybuilder muscles mind you, but simple to maximize muscle and minimize fat. I was inspired by this 68 year old I saw on youtube with a solid six pack. A true inspiration and are reminder that age is just a number.

Hopefully he didn't give up, but just no longer responding to the site.

Bodybuilder but only in the technical sense, not mass sense. I workout to define, shape and sculpt. I'm not impressive by any means, but people do on occasion ask me if I workout. That's more than enough recognition for me.

Good luck on your bodybuilding, and train safely.
