I'd also suggest working on adding size to your upper and middle chest. Take a look at Franco Columbo and Lou Ferrigno's upper chests. IMO, to many guys at the amateur level don't focus enough on upper chest. A good upper chest, in addition to lower, goes a long way to creating better symétrie especially when you have to do a side chest pose during pre-judging.

yes calves and hams I have seen they need bringing up too but poor calves don't grow well saying that they have come on loads
and also chest these was exact same things I picked out on myself
to be fair I got bit lazy on legs and skipped few workouts here and there but back at it now
I was about 82ish when started my cut last yeah very fat gut lol and when weighed in I was 71kg but to be fair I needed to be more lean and still had little areas could have done better with cutting
im 90kg now and looking to keep gaining till early 2018 before cut 95kg would be good starting point for cut
but if have any suggestions to help hams calves and chest im willing to give try
with calves the high reps I have been doing have done well
but with extra fat carry now hard to see hams progress
chest doing ok cant complain really
Here is side pose for some reason can't find any of my pics
Also I beat the two people in the pics as was beginner class
