bodybuilding questions

Hi guys
I have been training for one year now made some good gains. I just wanted to know how does somebody can train for a bodybuilding competition. Something along that line. I just want to try and get into the fitness side of things now. If anybody has had some experience please contact me or comment thank you.

I have a friend who competes and want to in the future.

I'm aiming on about 5-6 years training before competing. Since I started weight lifting I practice posing most days (helps my mind muscle connection so I can really contract them while training, this helped so much with my lats.)

I'd recommend training for a good few years before attempting to go for one. Build a solid physique and get to know your body. Try go for a tested competition as well. Was looking through photos of the competition near me and it was a mix of naturals and non naturals, seemed a bit unfair!
