Re: BOSTIN LOYD 2016 NPC Border Clash - - What do you think?
i must not be a real competitor because i understand both anabolic threshold and i also dont need nowhere near that amount of supplements after over a decade of constant use. that and my blood work always comes back damn close to pristine. then again i am also not full of shit and normally dont advertise to the entire world with my face what i do and do not do.
ok let's break down why cry baby didnt win. well for starters i once got some good advice from a judge right before telling me that if i worked with the local coaches that i would have swept the show. he told me that not always the biggest guy on stage won and at the end of the day, the guy with the best conditioning is going to win 9 out of 10 times. so first off out of the gate the dude that won has superior conditioning. two: the guy that won as has better color under the lighting which gives him the appearance of being harder and drier. 3- he flows much better and his upper body and lower body matches from the front back and sides. quick note for you guys about the npc. read the rules: you are not permitted to pull your trunks up your butt at any point and doing so can and may result in a disqualification. that and his glutes compared to the winner are not ripped. so i have no idea what he is trying to show there. the other guys hams are also much better conditioned so that usually means your glutes arent either. both their posing sucks but boston's is a little bit worse. fi you watch him he collapses his shoulders down to contract his chest. that makes you look narrow and compact and that is not good, you want to appear as big and wide as possible and create a good flow. he thinks he is all of that but at the end of the day he isnt. i tend to ***** and complain about my placings and the politics from time to time but i would never do it openly for the npc people to see. they will hold it against you and you can and may be black balled for doing stuff that can hurt the sport. my advice to him would be get a better posing coach and practice for one and then shut the f$$k up and maybe listen to someone to provide some good guidance from a coaching stand point. but in all reality he has probably lost all chances of that when he openly posted what palumbo was doing with his diet and supplement program a little while back. so no one will probably ever work with him and he will fade away eventually
i should also say that i am not by far an expert and try to learn as much as possible every chance i get. i talk to judges, other coaches and people that i know in the game that have either been around longer than me or are much larger than i am. that's what and where i get my info from. i like to read the research papers and things of that nature and then get info from dudes that are in the trenches applying it successfully. learning from those that are successful and better than you and also coaching people to achieving more than you are or where able to are the earmarks of a great competitor and coach. i love to complain and gripe about this and that but i have been around the game and politics for a very long time. so for the most part placing dont even piss me off any more, i just roll with it and enjoy beating what i was able to do the last time and always getting better
