Brock posing

Rest day today. Didn’t sleep great — I may have ingested a little too much St-Hubert chicken 🍗 last night. Kids had a great time though, so worth it.

Got in 30 minutes on the elliptical while my youngest was at basketball practice.

Also… big update:

I’m officially registered for WWA Physique Sports — July 19 🎟️
(link here)

I’m competing in:

  • Men’s Novice Muscle Physique
  • Men’s Masters 40+ Muscle Physique

“Muscle Physique” is basically their version of Classic Physique.

The only downside: I still can’t use my fresh new posing trunks. They require more of a square-cut / box-short style. Pain.

Judging Criteria (WWA)

1️⃣ Physique Development

  • Muscle size, density, and shape
  • Balanced development across all major muscle groups
  • Full, round muscle bellies

2️⃣ Symmetry & Proportion

  • Upper-to-lower body balance
  • Left-to-right symmetry
  • Overall structural aesthetics

3️⃣ Conditioning

  • Lean and controlled
  • Clearly defined
  • Healthy and sustainable

Important note:
Extreme dryness, vascularity, or unhealthy appearance is not required — and may actually be marked down.

4️⃣ Presentation & Stage Presence

  • Confidence and composure
  • Controlled transitions between poses
  • Professional demeanor on stage

Posing Routine

  • Line up on stage in numerical order
  • Face the judges in a Front Relaxed Pose

Now What?

Now all I have to do is:

  • Practice these poses
  • Figure out my best side
  • Develop some fucking confidence
