  1. Sticky Thread Sticky: The Road to Competition

  3. Sticky Thread Sticky: Comp Prep Support Thread

    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...

  2. BB Competition Music

    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)

  7. Bikini comp!

    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...
