Is it a 'look' thing or do none of you guys have any lats?
I am genuinely curious because you - kai - seem to have good guns, legs and front (much more so than these other guys) but none of you has that 'power' look that comes from a proper (in my book) back or wings...?
I am not knocking any of you or your achievements because I think they are seriously impressive transformations...

As in their powerlifting total? I very much doubt the accuracy of that.
Compare the difference in back mass in those guys to LiE, Dom or myself. The last guy appears to have some erector mass, but not enough to have 200+kg deadlifts and squats (the legs on that other guy definitely have not taken a 200kg squat to parallel).
I think you'll beat these guys, but then I don't entirely understand the criteria

Hrm yea those powerlifting number seem dubious!
Seems to be all about getting super lean.

ok my bad, on asking the question - they want to be joining the 600 total. They are more around the 400-450 (people in post #220) total as it's hard to judge at the moment as we are all so depleted.
As for criteria, its being judged on physique alone. So overall symmetry, muscle mass etc. very much like how a judge would mark on when judging WBFF Pro's. Slight issue is we are all very different in body shape and size but the guys judging at BP are well aware of this.

Wow Lie, those traps are epic, along with huuuuge! chest.
So 10 days out from the shoot, the man behind the plan's has just posted his transformation, its on the 90th day so he still has a bit of time for water loading, carb manipulation for the shoot but I think! im in trouble....
This is one amazing transformation for such a short period of time. Either way I take my hat off to him.
However, the biggest shock for me is an instrgram pic I found of one of the other boy's he done a sneaky back snap. I am not 100% sure on the time-frame but I would say this was around 25-30 days ago.
I am in trouble!!!
Time to up my game with only 10 day's to go.
That is a fantastic transformation. Dedication there and it shows, well done to him.
However, I still think you have this Kai

Have to agree with Nick here, there's not much tapering going on by a lot of guys for some reason. Mind you, the transformation going on for the 'man behind the plan' is absolutely stunning managing to lean out that much. I mean I guess it's just as much as bodybuilders would. But still...

So I am officially into photo-shoot prep week. I have two shoots next Monday in Sussex.
All last week I had zero carbs - Monday to Saturday, with the plan of having a clean reefed on the Sunday. Saturday afternoon I was told I was allowed my last cheat meal before water manipulation and another week of zero carbs.
Sunday morning I went with;
1 double sausage & egg mcmuffin
1 breakfast wrap
1 bagel with Philadelphia
1 pancakes and sausage
1 pancakes with syrup
1 pack reeses cups
1 Easter egg
1 Bag of haribo
so today, it's back to the grind. I have 4ltrs of bottled water today, increasing every day up until 9lts on Saturday
Sorry for the just random food pictures, but it works out in the space of 5 months I have been allowed 4 cheat meals..... it's a very momentous occasion every meal I am allowed to be let loose.

And that, right there is why I'll never have a great 6 pack for more than a few weeks.
Congrats though, it takes a lot of dedication. Celebrate your gluttony for a day

6 lts of water today leading up to 9lts Saturday. Vitamin C is now up to 4,000 and dandelion root has been introduced.
really struggling, as both coffee and diet coke has been completely cut so I cant even get a full feeling from the bloat
On the plus side I am looking really dry, skin is paper tight.
Bring on the carb loading Saturday night

Dat 3rd world lean!
This is the bit I hate..................................... today's water intake - 9Ltrs.
can never be more than 5m away from a toilet - all round nightmare. Last night's drive home from work was interesting I got caught in a traffic jam.

What's wrong with tap water? 
What's wrong with tap water?
Sodium levels. Marginal, when it comes down to the overall grand scheme of things but I need all the help I can get
Plus I have always used Evian for 90% my previous shoots in the last closing week, don't want to change things and rock the boat. Stick to what I know works!

Not really, this is the sort of qty I would be eating if I had a mcdonalds or pizza anyway. Foods like this have never been a regular occurrence for me even before training.
They are there to enjoy as a treat, some people clearly abuse this and think they can eat like this each and every day.
Some people I guess would class this amount of food as a binge, but im doing it because I can, and secondly it is actually helping me in that is spikes my metabolism.
So anyway I am 4 days out from BP, the shoot is over and I am not really dieting that hard. I am eating clean, but if I fancy something I am having it! I could roll up to BP with a budda belly if I get wrong, but ill just stick on a vest while on the stand.
I was pushed for time yesterday but I needed to get in a quad session - so I went with the following;
leg extensions quadruple drop set - 15 x 4 tempo 4:4:2
50m walking lunges - 30kg db each hand x4
leg press 225kg x 8
leg extensions quadruple drop set - 15 x 4 tempo 4:4:2
tempo was fast with 30 seconds rest each set
