The Muscle Hustle & Bustle
This week’s entry is a guest post. I know, I know…you’re heartbroken because reading shit written by me is the highlight of your measly existence. Dry your eye, kiddo! No need to wallow, because I’ve left blog duties in the more than capable hands — or at least I think I have — of Andrew DaCosta.1Who the hell is Andrew DaCosta?!?! Why, he’s a scientist currently living in New Jersey (I think he owed some Russian mobsters a shitload of money, so he fled New York and moved there. I’m not sure of the exact story, but it has to be something like that. I mean, why else would someone live in that godforsaken state?). When not sciencing, he’s on stage as an NPC competitor. Yup, he enjoys spending his free time strutting his stuff half-naked and oiled up in front of an audience full of guys. Oh, he also knows how to polka like nobody’s business and happens to be one of my earliest training partners. Some (definitely not me) would even go out of their way to say he’s a good friend. SO THAT’S WHO THE FUCK ANDREW DACOSTA IS!!!
Someone stopped me in the gym yesterday and asked me if I’m getting ready for a show, then asked me how many weeks it takes to get ready for one.
I assume that most people would probably say, “Well, prep is typically 12 weeks; so about 2 to 3 months.”
That couldn’t be further from the truth.
Bodybuilding doesn’t stop.
