Datas Prep for 2012 NPC Team Universe

**Provo82** · 07-09-2012, 08:59 AM

congrats buddy time to eat and grow. looking forward to following your rebound.

**KevinCouch** · 07-09-2012, 09:21 AM

Congrats Austin! You had great conditioning. Now it's time to get that middleweight title next year.
It's unfortunate that the Team U has become some convoluated with "drug testing" that guys that are clearly not natty's or even clean for 1 year are competing in this show.

If these guys had any confidence in their own abilities they would be competing at the Junior Nats or USAs instead and don't see how they could get any satisfaction out of cheating to get a trophy. That's just how I feel anyway. You should be very proud of your accomplishments and will make an incredible middleweight next year!

Go enjoy the rebound!

Belated Congrats, Sir.

Improvments were very noticible. With your work ethic and attention to detail the Sky is the limit for you! Keep up the good work!

I agree Kevin. I am not taking sides with natural or non natural but they are seperated for a reason. Its pretty simple, if you arent natural or dont meet the shows drug testing criteria dont do the show!

Completely agree. I obviously have no probably with using. I was also natural for a long time. But every motherfucker who signs that contract to compete is signin that they have not taken anabolics for 1 year. Austin would have been 2nd if not 1st if people didn't try and play the bullshit game. Anyway you looked sick even in that shit lighting. And top 5 at any national show especially your first is awesome.

Ya man it was shady to say the least. Sadly it seemed like so many people were cheating that you almost couldnt pick people out of the crowd. The guys that were clean may have been the minority lol

NPC Not Possibly Clean!

I have done two other tested NPC shows and they did in fact test us. I know some tested NPC shows even use poly. Those shows exist I just know that wasnt one of them.

I know they do, just joking. I've seen way too many "natural" shows, not being natural. Really sad thats the only way some people can win is to cheat.

Data you were peeled to the bone with great quad separation, i don't think you looked flat at all, awesome job. Have you ever considered doing a natural show outside the NPC? http://www.thenaturalmusclenetwork.com/schedules.html

Fuck that. You have what it takes to be successful in NPC. You're young. And without fear it's gonna take a bit longer but will be well worth it in the end. Panexce won overall and was completely natural. Of course you'd do great in a natty org but I think if you can do this well against guys runnin tons of shit why bother. Just keep improving, that's all you need to do and the size you need to win will come.

seriously i doubt he was natural, look at him at the 2011 team universe,

Now this was him this year at the 2012 NY Pro 212

Next your gonna tell me Marc Lobliner is natural.

**juiceinator3000** · 07-10-2012, 12:47 AM

I said he won as a natural. What he did after that I don't care. He was ready toc
pete in two pro ifpa shows after. You're saying you don't think he could have been natural when he won? If not then I'll say data has some traits that look like he's not either (which we all know he is)

The first show I did was an NGA show and I actually want to go for my NGA pro card next time I compete.

lol thanks Juice, thats a compliment

I actually like the idea of doing both. I want to get my natty pro card next time I compete. I would like to get it in the NGA. However, I do like the depth of the NPC and I dont give a shit if I compete against guys that are ON. I forsee myself possibly doing the Team U again at some point and I truely think I could win that show. If I did go onto win an overall at that show someday then ya I would probably have to throw being natural out the window but at that point I wouldnt care if I was able to compete in the IFBB.

**Provo82** · 07-10-2012, 12:14 PM

I know Panex personally and id be shocked if he wasnt natural when he one. Cheating and sneaking around tests arent his style.

Thanks fellas! Switch, my pics right now would not be that great. I am holding more water than a fire truck lol I always have this issue after a show. I was back to my macros right after the show night but it never fails I bloat alot. It is slowly coming off though.
