What a weekend here in Moncton New Brunswick… <\/p>\n

It was the BIGGEST Atlantic Canadian Bodybuilding Competition<\/strong> ever with over 80 competitors total. I’ve never been apart of such a high caliber show before so it was quite an experience.<\/p>\n

I was down to a ripped and dry 187 pounds on Saturday morning. That’s the leanest I’ve ever been. But even though I was in the best shape of my life and really pleased with everything. I still wasn’t at the level needed to hang with the more experienced competitors on stage. There were 10 guys in the light-heavyweight class and I placed 6th. <\/p>\n

However, I was awarded the best posing routine of the night. That was an unexpected surprise because there were A LOT of competitors. So I was really happy with that, I worked hard on my posing and the judges could see it as well. So now I’ve got another kick ass trophy to add to the collection!<\/p>\n

My girlfriend Patricia also competed in the figure division and she placed 2nd in the medium height class and 2nd in the masters (over 35) class. We’re both really happy with this because it was her first time doing figure and she did really well.<\/p>\n

On Sunday we did a photo shoot with our friend Serge Bordage at his Megaflex Gym. I haven’t seen all the pics yet, but I know there are going to be some awesome shots. Serge is a bodybuilder himself and knows how to get some killer photos.<\/p>\n

I’ve posted some of the sample ones that Serge put up on Facebook here below… <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I’ll add more pics as I get them. I’ll also be adding some contest stage pics as well as they come in.<\/p>\n

The whole point of a bodybuilding \/ figure competition is to simply get in your own personal best shape. We use the show as a goal with a deadline and then give it 100%. Obviously, no one can control who else shows up to a contest, all you can do is be at your best and let the chips fall where they may.<\/p>\n

Even though we never won, it doesn’t matter. We still achieved massive success by getting in our best shape ever. And the best part is that this Thursday we are going to enjoy the fruits of our labors by taking a much deserved beach vacation to Cuba. <\/p>\n

We may not have had the best bodies on stage this weekend, but none the less we’ll be in killer shape for the beach in Cuba!<\/p>\n

======================<\/p>\n

If you would like to know the exact diet and training program that both Patricia and I followed to get in our best contest shape ever. Then I have it all outlined in my brand new DVD program called “Extreme Fat Loss” which you can get at: http:\/\/www.leehayward.com\/dvd<\/a><\/p>\n
