WELL

YOU NEED MORE MUSCLE AND YOU NEEDED TO BE LEANER.

I have to agree with Phil, in order for you to do better at this show you needed to be leaner and you need more thickness and overall size. It is difficult to give you an accurate critique seeing these pictures. It is easier to see if we could see quarter turns or full body shots. Close ups are bad at telling what you might need to work because you lose a sense of proportion.

Best advice: go to the basics, and just train hard, eat.. and rest. Give yourself at least 2 years and then come back to the competitive arena and see how your physique has come along. If you want to fast track your progress, get with a coach, like Phil or myself who can guide you during this time of building. Good luck bro, keep at it and you will do well. Just don't give up. That is how you fail.

I agree with all above. You definately need more mass for your frame. It's that thickness that judges are looking for today in all classes....

Thanks Guys! I have plans to get with phil about a workout and a diet, and I'll make sure I put full body shots up next time so I can get a better evaluation. I'm defiantly going to keep training and pushing hard. and thanks again.

Since most of what I have to say has been covered, I'll just add that if you want to do well take the time to learn how to pose. You can have a great physique but if you don't know how to present it you won't place high.

Buy some instructional videos or hire an experienced posing coach and practice over and over and over.... until hitting a solid pose is second nature.

Amen! So many athletes come to shows looking pretty good or sometimes great and they have bad posing and bad skin color. Thus destroying any chances of showing off their physiques to their fullest. Most don't do as well as they could.

This is very good advice.

Thank you again.

Thanks for the feed back fellows. I'll keep looking for some one to help me with my posing but there isn't anyone in my area that I know of that could help. I'm near Memphis, Tn so if yall know of anyone let me know lol.
