15 weeks out from first show

[maxwkw]

I've never done any kind of posing before, so I thought I'd get some critiques.

This will be my first show. I'm 15 weeks out, sitting at 178lbs this morning.

I'm aware that I still have a decent amount of fat to lose, I'm more looking for critiques on posing and presenting my physique. Thanks.

15 weeks your looking good bro depending on who you hire or how you do it you probably could add some quality muscle while leaning out. From looking at back double bicep pose I would suggest hitting back a litter harder to add some muscle you'll come in perfect middle weight IMO. Good work and good luck!

Thanks for the feedback.

I've always had a hard time adding mass to my back. Working on it.

 

[maxwkw]

Bump.

Anyone else?

lookin pretty good man. Have you hired a posing coach yet?

 

[maxwkw]

Not
Specifically for posing. I'm working with John meadows and he's giving pointers.

Also I'm taking video and showing it to other competitors I know and taking advice.

You definitely can come in shape in that time period.

But like you already know, posing is super weak for you.

Practice frequently, watch videos (instructional and otherwise)- Rusty Jeffers is a good guy to watch.

You have plenty of time to make your posing better. Your physique will look worlds better once you learn to present it correctly (or at least better than now), even at your current bodyfat.

Is John doing your diet and training? Your already pretty lean with good time to go. With John in your corner you could make some drastic changes imo. You'll be shredded I bet

He is doing both.

I know I'm pretty bad at posing, when I have a good pump going I look like I'm ready to step on stage already.

Here's a leg shot

Just got done with prejudging.

Looks like it's between me and one other guy.

He's got better shape than me, but I'm definitely better conditioned.
