I love Jillian's look. I thought she was an easy 2nd. Great job to all the ladies, beautifully done!!

Best post I've read in this entire thread and I couldn't agree more. There is nothing wrong with speaking your mind, so good for you!

Building a solid physique will take more then just a few years. It's harder for women to add good quality muscle to their frames. If you choose to compete and diet for constant back to shows, then...

Slept in today because I was feeling tired. I don't sleep very well, so anytime I can take advantage of it is always nice.

Hit the gym for some some chest/bis.

Based on this, it sounds like a beefed up version of a figure class. Throw in some pretty posing and ditch the heels.

I haven't read every response, but I understand the look is softer so would...

Looks good girl!!

I agree, they continue lowering the bar...so sad for all these women that have busted their asses to get where the are today.

Honestly, I'm still not over bringing in the bikini division (no offense to bikini women...but that was a fuckin kick in the teeth...) now this...I should just retire now lol...

I started using the heating pad a good 15 min before I hit the gym. It warms up the muscle and it feels so much better. I'm still healing, but it feels good compared to the past few weeks.

BB is my passion and I love it. I'm not the biggest girl, but I do my best to try to nail my conditioning. I'm a good bb, but I'll never be great...and I'm ok with that.

I've only did figure...

I couldn't agree more...it's fukin ridiculous...

Here's a couple pics from my last show:

Yes, I've been competing in bb for almost 10 yrs. Tried figure a few times, but it's not my thing. I haven't been on the stage since 2008...took a long needed break. I will be getting back on...

Oh thanks girlie! I've missed you! :)

This should sum it up...

I still do this:

Wow it's been so long since I've been here. I don't have much time, but I wanted to drop in a post my workout. I'll have more time to catch up with everyone's journals over the weekend.

Everyone made some great points, so please read this thread over and over before you make any kind of drastic decisions.

If you're worried about losing muscle, then keep your focus on lifting...

Sounds like a blast, you all look great!! :)

Hi Baldie!

I absolutely hate the pec dec, but I use it. I don't know it seems when I do single arm I feel it's hits the pecs so much better.

Sully was my trainer for a few years and helped me take it to the next level...good times. :)

Just saying hello Mike. :)

Looks great Blu, have a kick ass week girlie!! :)

Hi Bucki, that sucks about your gym. I'm sure you'll make it work with what you've got. :)

Oh that's too bad, sorry to hear that. I've been training solo for years and I seriously love it! I might not be able to go as heavy is some exercises, but I make up for it in others. :)

I'm...

Happy Monday all, hope you had a great weekend! I'm on my 2nd week of dieting and it's going great. I'm focused and feeling good.

Today was Back/Tris...very strong workout. Then after I was done a...

Why, what happened to Max??

Right, got them flipped and almost up...but not quite there.

This is what happens when you train alone with no spotters...:(
