Tony's Challenge: SNBF competition pictures, results

Here are the results, the pictures of my body after months of intensive workouts and carefully planned dieting. I placed third in my class, novice middle weight, the biggest class in the competition. This competition was the hardest competition, mentally, that I have ever put myself through. I would rather deal with being in the 4th quarter of the championship game and losing!

Thanks to everyone for their support, especially Tim Joyce for training me, Ben Fitzpatrick and Gisela Hodgson of Fitness @ Five gym for sponsoring me, and to everyone who wished me luck and helped me keep faith in myself. Special shout out to my grandmother who always told me that I could achieve anything I want as long as I put my mind to it. And believe me, this was as much a mental exercise as it was physical.

Night before preparation. That's Tim Joyce with the paintbrush. Thanks for your coaching and support, Tim. I could not have done it without you.
