Super lolz, Id say less than 2 months xDDD

350 centuries

In all seriousness, probably close to 3 years. And you have to be dedicated EVERY day. I remember readinf in FLEX a few years back, Milos Sarcev said anyone could be a serious bodybuilder in 3-4 years. Yes, you could be in great shape in a year, but as someone already said, competing is a different game. I'm FAR from a bodybuilder, but I do know competing is much more than being in shape.

Minimum 3 years. But, most likely 4 years. Go for it!!!

Check out this link for the before and after pictures http://asp.elitefts.com/qa/training-...=79461&tid=163 . He did that in 1 year! Amazing! If the OP is serious then he should use this as inspiration.
