I moved out of bodybuilding shows because it was too subjective and it\u2019s very political. I give props for those who are still competing in this sport, I just can\u2019t do it anymore. For example, if you take the top 5 bodybuilder who placed 1st to 5th for one week, they could have a totally different results at another competition a week later. It\u2019s totally different from power lifting, where it\u2019s very measurable.<\/span><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #666699;\">I started bulking a few months ago to prepare for this this year\u2019s power lifting competition. I was 173 lbs and after 2 months, I weigh 191. It wasn\u2019t easy counting calories and consistently eating until I felt uncomfortable bloated. However, with the surplus of calorie combined with heavy lifting, I had the strength of an ox and I loved it. Before, certain amount of weights were so heavy that I couldn\u2019t pick up and now they became super light to me. I had a clean bulk, I\u2019ve added very little body fat and gained a lot of muscle.<\/span><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #666699;\">Now, it\u2019s time to shred the body fat and make weight for the power lifting competitions at 83 kg.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_30956\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-30956\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.peterfever.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-30956\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"30956\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blog.peterfever.com\/index.php\/2016\/03\/17\/bulking-phased-out\/lifting\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/blog.peterfever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Lifting.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"600,350\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Wish Me Luck\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Wish Me Luck&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/blog.peterfever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Lifting-600x250.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-30956 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.peterfever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Lifting.jpg\" alt=\"Lifting\" width=\"600\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.peterfever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Lifting.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blog.peterfever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Lifting-300x175.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-30956\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lifting<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019ve decided to compete in power lifting competitions this year.
