Pro/Am Contests Blog

I received this email from IFBB Pro Figure Competitor Heather Green yesterday, and am reposting it here, with permission, for your reading pleasure.  Enjoy!

"Hi Richard,

Thanks for the congratulations, I had a really great time in Pittsburgh!  Everyone was very accommodating and the show was well organized so things ran smoothly which I always appreciate.

The callouts at prejudging were a bit confusing for me, and I walked out of there not knowing at all where I had placed.  I was really psyched to learn later that I placed 6th.  In my opinion the competition was extremely tough and the element of mystery that came along with "the letter" had a lot of us guessing.  I tried to keep it soft for this show, and I could only chuckle when I got the feedback from the judges.  "Your legs were a little too soft.  Just tighten up a bit…"

I think they know what they’re looking for, I just may have a hard time finding the balance.  I’ve got Mike Davies helping me prepare for the California Pro in a few weeks and I’m confident he’ll bring me in with the right combination.

Thanks, have a great night!”
