NPC debut wrapped up!

Man, what a weekend. This was my favorite prep yet. The atmosphere, the crowd, all of it.

I competed in Bodybuilding and Classic Physique, placing 1st in Classic Physique Class A (only one in my class) and 2nd in Lightweight Bodybuilding. I’m not completely proud of my package, but it was my best to date. last year was 50%, this year was a solid 60%, and I’m grateful for that progress.

Although I’m still nationally qualified, I’ll be back next year to grab that overall title. For now, I got 12 days to improve. If it’s only 10% each time I step onstage, I’m still grateful.

Family, friends, and people I never met told me they had me winning the Overall. That means a lot because it shows I have an overall-winning physique. The competition showed me the conditioning it takes to win an NPC overall. I wasn’t lean enough and was missing some of the detail and “pop” I can bring. I held less water than before, but my fullness can improve. Now I know what needs work.

This was a last-minute decision. I started prep in late May aiming for late September, and that’s still the plan. I jumped in because God presented the opportunity and gave me signs to take it. I gave it what I had and learned from it. I have the size, shape, and posing. Now it’s time to bring the condition and fullness to match.

Thank you to my family, friends, gym crew, and everyone who came out. whoever watched the whole show and didn’t get to speak with or take a picture with, please know I saw you and felt your support ❤️

Bodybuilding teaches me that the work nobody sees matters most. Patience when progress is slow, discipline when motivation disappears, honesty when you fall short. You can appreciate how far you came while taking responsibility for what needs work.

I love those quiet battles. Every hard day is a chance to keep your word to yourself, every setback is a chance to get back up and learn. It’s not about being perfect or feeling 100% every day. It’s about becoming better than yesterday, onstage & as a person. I plan to compete every September for as long as God allows.

AlHamdillah for this life, the story continues. Just a kid with a dream.

52 weeks of coaching

140 lbs -> 180 lbs

Scroll through the slides… this is body BUILD ing.

Often, younger athletes seem to miss the building aspect, and focus too closely on staying lean, to fit either preference or social media.

Neither of which will win you shows, if that’s your goal.

Feel free to share this post with a friend who needs to see what building muscle looks like 😎

The process so far with @pushpullpatrick

33 weeks

145 lbs to 170 lbs

“Boy to man”

Patrick approached me with the goal of building a competitive physique, but I already knew (I have gotten very good at understanding someone’s personality through the way they answer an application form) that he was going to be a little nervous pushing bodyweight, and equally perhaps have some overthinking of the process.

I was very blunt out of the gates.

Here is the timeline, we must now just execute, get aggressive with your sets, care more about the intensity than the perfect execution.

Scroll to see what that looks like ✅

And here we are… a fair bit of tissue slapped on, and much more to come.

A very competitive physique will land on stage when the time is right.

Hi guys! My name is Patrick Moore, and I’m a junior majoring in Mechanical Engineering and minoring in CS. I started weightlifting in high school for wrestling, and I’ve gotten into more bodybuilding-oriented training since then. I’m planning on competing in the WNBF in 2026, and I aspire to become a successful coach in parallel. I’ve made many good friends in IBB, and I’m excited to continue to grow the club!

I’m fairly sleep-deprived from all the Christmas travels/festivities and when I get sleep-deprived I get cranky which usually results in me yelling at the Smith Machine. Sorry, Smith Machine. Need to get to bed early tonight and get back on track to avoid digging myself in too deep of a hole.

Todays workout fueled by ham, mashed potatoes and sugar cookies.
