What's up Rxmuscle.com? I'm back from my month long vacation. Really not much of a vacation but I'm well rested and ready to pick up where I left off. As most of you may have read, I was moved from Westchester County Jail to a Federal prison. It's better here in some way but it does have drawbacks. Club Fed it's not! Listen up; I'm gonna tell you the difference between the county and federal jails that I've experienced and my "move" from one to the other.
Editors Note (Big Sean Andros): Week after week you've gotten to read my predictions and previews for the ladies side of the sport and occasionally I throw some insight into the men (if you can call it insight). This week's Europa Super Show in Dallas is shaping up the be the premier event of the summer and Rx Muscle will be providing the most in-depth coverage of any media outlet out there (CHECK BACK TO RX MUSCLE ALL WEEKEND FOR UP-TO-THE SECOND RESULTS, PLAY BY PLAY, PHOTOS, AND VIDEOS). To get things started on the right foot, I was able to twist the arm of the one and only Dave Palumbo to offer his pre-show commentary on some of the key athletes competing in the Mens Under-202.
Hello again everyone from my secluded paradise. Ha-Ha-sounded good - right? Secluded, yes - paradise, not so much but I always try to make the best out of a shitty situation. As you all know, I don't have access to any weights in here so this month I'll be talking about my interesting workout routine. Believe it or not, I won't be able to fit all my jailhouse routines into one article so this will be Part 1 of 4 - hell, it might even be a 5-part series. I think everyone out there will find these workouts very different from anything they have seen before. I'm not going to talk about push-ups and pull-ups or basic calisthenics. We all know about those and if you don't then you probably shouldn't be on this site. This is Rx Muscle where it's about hardcore training and learning things about bodybuilding that no other site can teach you.
Our first 500-word essay contest is in the bag and I have to say that, for the first one, it went pretty damn well. I also have to say that I was disappointed that so many of you who entered didn't follow the simple directions l laid out and explained in the simplest of terms. I had to disqualify over half of the entrants because they were submitted without a "by-line" under the title. I had no idea who wrote them! Just because your name is in your e-mail doesn't mean you can leave it off your essay. I drag them all into a folder and read them all at once at the end of the month. If your name isn't on your essay I'm not going to know who wrote it. Sounds like school doesn't it?
I hope all of you are going to be at the Dallas Convention Center August 13–14th to attend the 2010 IFBB/NPC Europa Super Show put on by Ed and Betty Pariso. It’s shaping up to be a really cool show with lots and lots of events to attend well beyond the pro/am bodybuilding competition.
