Last year about this time – I had considered doing the Masters Nationals. I have decided to put this on hold (MAYBE LOL) , until next year. I had done 3 shows so far this year – the majors being the Arnold Amateur and the Metropolitans. I am committed to doing 2 more for the season, and then hang up the figure suit until next year. Unless I see substantial changes and this can only come if I rest and eat appropriately will I consider doing Team U and/or the Eastern’s, considering I really don’t have that much time, I may save those for next year too. Next year for sure - I will only do larger shows rather than the smaller ones, although nice and I have fun, its no competition when you place 3rd and there’s 3 people in your class LOL

My body can only take so much. LOL The caliber of figure womens at these HUGE shows is phenomenal; I saw this first hand at the Arnold! Despite the fact that I am where in terms of physique, I would like to be , rounded capped shoulders, ripped abs ,  and legs,  I still have to work on and have been firming up the glutes and hams. Although the soft look, that I have been seeing in the “smaller shows” is not what I am seeing at the BIG shows…definitely a big difference in the two.

Here are some pictures of the WINNERS in last years Masters National – no SOFTIES here
