do i wanna compete at 235 or do i just wanna train my ass off till i reach my goal of 205?

or do i wanna compete as i drop through super heavy and heavy on my way down to light heavy?

compete as you drop.

Good experience

Creed is on to something

figure out your normal weight and cut 10 lbs

Fight Fight Fight......

What weight is concidered super heavy?

265 and up

it will take a while to lose that kind of weight, compete as you go down

35 lbs is a lot of weight to drop if you also want to keep your muscle - no more than 2.2lb a week.

How long are you going to wait to compete?

I say eat pizzas, gain weight, fight as you go.

Agreed!

Creed super heavyweight is not 265, at least not down here.

Down here SHW, starts where heavy weight ends 225!!
WTF is that!

You'll take beatings competing as you drop. Do that sparsely... the whole reason you're dropping weight is because you don't want to be in there with guys who hit as hard as those big monstrous ****s do, so don't think you're gonna get any type of lasting "experience", other than cereberal damage, by putting yourself in front of a 260 lber because you can't lay off the ****ing twinkies.

You know I'm just giving you **** Ben... but come on bro, 23****ing5? You're better than that. If I can drop from 240 to 197 in less than 3 months, you can too.

i've come from 262 to 235 in like 3 months WHILE i was injured for 5 weeks.

I agree with Dave. Weren't you 235 when I was 235? I am down to 208 now. You can do it bro, just work hard at it!

See, I never knew you were 265.

265!! ****in christ Ben, unless you're 6'5 or benching 300 you shouldn't be competing at that weight!!! You do realize that you're putting yourself in there with guys like Erikson, Sapp & Barnett right?!!??!

some big guys in here. Im 178 and want to go down to 170,****.

Well at the moment I wasn't talkin about fighting NHB jst grappling tornaments.

Saturday is the post UFC NAGA in Miami. It was more in reference to that.

I was really considering competing cause for a while now i've been doin really good with people my level and a bit above.

Today i'm re-thinking I rolled wih a blackbelt and got housed now i feel like a failure. Granted I've only been in 2 months and this dude has been in for a minimum of 10 years but i feel like a failure cause iwas tappin every min at least.

Ben, compete in the Naga. You got nothing to lose in a grappling tournament. Do it.

I say go for it man......

I'm heavily considering it.

I just don;t want to cost my teacher 50-60 dollars it costs to get in.

its ludacris!

I don;t got the $$ to get in thats my main problem.

Well if your teacher is going to pay for you to enter he must think you will do well enough not to embarrass him or yourself......

So true, it took me 7 months to go from 280 to 200. Ben is cheating on his workouts and/or diet...It has to be the diet

2 Months and lost 30, but you still have been talking about losing weight forever

I'm at 167, but want to cut down to 155. I'm ripped at that weight. Right now I got a little chub on me.

benching 300 isn't anything. Drop the weight Vulgar and be patient.

Not much, Tom mah man, just procrastinating till my appointment at 2:00. How about with you?

time to go to work in about 5 mins. Just relaxing.

What do you do?

Just a part time manager <third key> at a retail store in a mall. I work while i go to school.

Oh yeah. God I miss school and all that quality college tang! You probably meet a lot of chicks at the mall too, huh?

I meet some. A lot of them are nasty. The area i live in is not a rich area. It's pretty much lower class, so i see more skanks and dirty sluts then hotties. But i'm talking to Diana, a hot columbian chick with an accent, that graduated with me, she works at Footlocker in the mall also. So it's okay i guess, just very boring.

I will talk to ya later, i can post at work every now and then because business is usually slow.

Later bro!
