Hi everyone! I did my 2nd figure show in March 2010 won my class. Was really small about 109lbs. Was told to add size so trained hard went to USA's in Vegas and ended up 16th out of 30 girls my first national show and only my 3rd show. I know I'm improving each time. Did my 4th show this Oct 2010 ended up 4th. At this show told me waist was to big? Not sure what I need to do at this point. Training shoulders and legs hard to big out more. My back seems crazy for figure but I just do basic movements for it. Any advice. I have come a long way from single over weight mom to stepping on stage. Emerald Cup 2011 is my next show and back to USA's. I'm open to any suggestions.
Thanks guys!

The first two pics are from 2nd show, then USA's, and My Oct show.83131

You look fabulous. Consider doing the new Women's Physique class at the National level this year. I think you'd be a perfect fit!

id have to agree with the other judges, your waist is the problem. idk how you could go about correcting that. adding more back width wouldnt be a good idea since you are figure, unless you went to the PD, but i suspect it would be an issue in PD as well.

Thanks! I'm going to try to add as much as I can to shoulder caps and quad sweeps and hope it will help my waist look smaller. I'm planning on Emerald Cup in April so I will keep you posted.
And thanks again for looking me over!...
