Vets? Anybody Help?

[thebige]

I am ready to take it to the next level as a bodybuilder and want to start walking the road to my pro card. I really am in need of a mentor. Someone who is willing to coach an aspiring athlete like myself, and give them the tools and info they need to do it. I have the background, and the genetics to make this work. I talked to Kai Greene at the last Olympia, and asked him who I could find that would do that, and he hesitated and carefully thought out his response. I told him that there has to be someone who took even him from the amateur level into pro-level contention. He said that yes, someone had done this for him but couldn't say who, and that the only name he could think of was Dave Pulumbo. Well, Dave, said he would do it for me, but that his complete program was like $450! It included training, diet and supps. The only thing I really needed was an example cycle and an idea of what doses I would need to be taking to make the pro-level leap.
Kai said to just keep asking everywhere and never give up. He said eventually someone would come forward if I kept putting myself out there. So here I am. Does anybody know of someone that might help me. I have essentially the same level of information as the average poster around here if not better when it comes to intelligent cycle design and effective training, but I really need "expert advice." I'm 5'11'', and 290lb at an off-seasonish 14-17%bf. I can rep out 600lb squats to a depth of 13", bench over 500lb, and deadlift 650lb (when my back is ok). I have 21'' arms and 38'' thighs, and when I am lean my waist is only 33''. I make a living exclusively as a personal trainer, but the info I need anymore requires pro-level experience. Can anyone help me? At least point me the right direction?

Sincerely,

e

Goodness, I can't help you become a pro but there are some here you might. I am sure they will contact you if interested. However, after hearing your description of yourself, I would love to see some pics. You must be a behemoth.............

Funny to hear you say that. Whenever I look at myself in the mirror I see a small little bitch. Every year I think I look small, but maybe thats what keeps getting me bigger! Worried about sending pics online though. Sent some to Palumbo, and he said I had good mass, but I think I look like shit. Especially with this off season fat.

If the above description is accurate, you have nothing to be ashamed of. Post 'em up bro.

Hard to imagine a 5'11 bro at 290 being a "little bitch" as you say LOL.

I would think palumbo would be more expsensive than that 450 isn't too much I think if he's going to guide you up until competition its a good deal...post up some pics like the bros said here so we can see what were working with haah

How the fuck do I do that?

If you are looking for free advice, most of the qualified people will not give it... you are looking for a guru, and the best thing would be to hire someone if you are serious, otherwise learn on your own. Reading Building The Perfect Beast should help.

I actually think $450 is pretty cheap for the level of expertise you'll be getting from someone like Palumbo.

agreed, to get where you wanna go is gonna take a lot more than drive and dedication. hey look Palumbo took Evan Centopani to the nationals and that kid won, and hes a fucking beast
