    When I first started competing at the end of 2011, I cut my creatine out because the judges said my look was too hard, and I needed to soften up quickly. This season, I've learned to balance my supplements, Hydration and nutrients to deliver a "Physique" physique without interrupting my training or supplement cycles. ~ Michael A

    Nothing! If it ain't broke don't fix it. Adding/removing supplements in the last week(s) has in the past set me in a tailspin.

    I am interested to see what is involved with the MP when compared to Mens BB.

    I typically cut out any form of Creatine 3-4 days out from competition.

    In the past I have cut Protein Powders; but, i will probably stay on mine up until the day before the show for my next competition.

    I use CLA religiously as well as a multi-vitamin.
    I bump up my Vit C the last 4 days before a show as well as my Dandelion Root.

    A trainer I see occassionally has told me this a few times and is practically begging me to do bodybuillding instead. I don't understand though. Why would you want to look less appealing (in my eyes anyway). How exactly do you go about looking "softer"?
