As a comp "virgin" setting out on the trek to the stage, I have no idea what to expect. So, for those of you, what was your experience like during your preparation? Sticking to diet, getting in those early AM cardios, how did you continue to motivate yourself? Were there times you wanted to...

I thought it a good idea to have a thread where competitors can get support, when they need it, that is specifically for their comp. prep. So, here it is.... I'm officially freaking out. I'm 14 weeks out from my comp. and need to lose about 15-17lbs :sad: I'm so scared that I won't be ready in...
Rebounding You’re a fitness enthusiast about to enter your first competition. You’ve talked to other competitors, read about contest preparation, studied the diets of the champions, and pored over lists of tips and tricks. Music has been chosen and your choreography is in the works. Water intake...

Hey everyone just wanted to see who is going to the Arnolds this year? This will be my first time, and I keep hearing that it's pretty amazing. peace
It's still very early on (potential comp in November) but I'm already thinking of music. Any ideas out there? Not too fast, not too slow....strong beat. What have you guys seen other women use? No go's: Nelly Furtado - Maneater (friend used) Def Leppard - Pour Some Sugar on Me (friend used)
This is mainly for Ontario's athletes who competed in the OPA. This was a memo sent out a few days ago. They are calling this new group CBBF-Ontario division. Dear Friends, We are writing to inform you of some exciting changes related to the Ontario Physique Association. It is recognized by...
I read the rules for the bikini division suit and it just says off the rack is okay and it must be v shaped for the bottoms. I found a suit today that may be too flashy. It's white with a bunch of colored hearts all over it. The top and bottom is the same. I saw pics of NPC bikini and I saw...
I'm not sure if I should've put this in nutrition, but here goes. My NPC Bikini comp is July 11th and I've recently made my diet stricter. I was given advice by my bodybuilder friend to avoid dairy and red meat (even if it's lean) the month before since it will make me retain water. What do you...

So, there's a new bikini division for NPC. I was thinking of doing a July 11th show. Does anyone know how strict I should be dieting for the show? I'd say I'm less than 20% bf, but in no way have the leaness of an oxygen cover model. I have some hereditary love handles to get rid of and a...
Have any of you used UD2 and taken it into the final week of competition? If so, how did you adapt it? Here was my plan: (my carb-up is Sat and Power Sunday) Competition on Saturday - pre-judge in AM. I'm doing figure... Sat before - tension and carb-up...thinking of reducing the carbs a bit...
Just thought I'd share my experience so far... I just finished my first week and I have to say - it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be given some of the threads I've read. The diet was good (by the fourth day at less than 20% carbs it was a little touch and go) and the workouts were...
My question relates to figure competition. Is it better to have long hair or does it not matter (for judging purposes)? Im not competing. Just asking for someone else.
PEOPLE , I NEED HELP! Was this big enough? Well, not me, but the Dutch woman whose pic I post below. If someone can have bad luck, it's her.. she had been ill while prepping for the show, but overcame everything. What happens.. all flights out of NYC get cancelled due to the snow, which...
Leah- I am sorry if I am not allowed to put this here- please delete if you don't want it- I am selling 2 suits. The one piece is Jagware, hundreds of stones and black shiny fabric. Gorgeous suit, very flattering. The back straps are stoned as well. $300. The 2 piece is Lydia Conti, plain...
I've just been told....by a successful trainer/competitive bodybuilder......that my physique is just too muscular for figure/fitness. I know I'm still fat...gotta get from here (145lbs) to bout 125. But once that is done....I would still be too muscular. What a mind fuck. He feels like I...
And what are you doing?
This is a question for anyone really who has bulked up and leaned down several times. Has anyone else noticed a shift in their fat pattern storage since competing? I've leaned down and "bulked up" twice now and I've noticed I'm getting closer and a closer to a normal female fat pattern. ...
Can someone please explain to me why it is so hard to nail down the dates for the NPC shows? I want to do the Metrolina in Greensboro, NC for my first show. I can't find the info I need on it. Also, where can I find the official info about NPC sanctioned shows..for instance, I heard there...
Part One Part Two Part Three coming soon!
Has anyone used Dermablend or anything else that worked well to cover tattoos?
Has anyone entered this relatively new division, or been to a comp to watch it? I'm wondering if the judging is as subjective as that for figure.
I could post this at his message board, which I will, but just thought I would ask...how low does your bodyfat have to be to start this book? I am around 20% or so...also, I want to compete in a figure show in late April 09..just curious if this will prepare me for the show. Thanks guys!
If you could/would compete in a physique competition what category would you compete in?
^ yeah that - and have fun!
So, this is probably more of a personal question, but I kind of wanted to hear from others on when they decided to stop competing. When was the effort not worth all the sacrifice? I'm wanting to compete in fitness next year, however, having done BB for two years now, I know all too well the...
Has anyone competed in one and / or does anyone know of any anywhere LOL
Ummmm... I found this on a blog I was reading. At first I was thinking, that's a bit rude...you don't know how far these people have come, then I realised the guy was crazy :S http://vimeo.com/2292882

This is as close as I will get to legitimately posting in this section:oops: I am running the Vegas half marathon this Sunday:cardio: I have only been training since September but am hoping for a time with a 2 in front of it. Wish me well and think of me at 6:00am Sunday morning when the race...
IIRC, this weekend Mrs. Iscariot is representing NZ at the Oceania PL meet in Tahiti... Rock 'em Mrs. I! new PRs! :grin:
Since I'm not familiar I just thought I'd see what the general concensus is about this. Thanks. NANBF/OCB/IFPA Affiliation Announcement Dear competitors, Please note the North American Natural Bodybuilding Federation (NANBF) is no longer affiliated with the World Natural Bodybuilding...
