Hahahahaha! Yeah, I'm not a fan of bikini either. I agree with you about the physique girls getting almost too big. I need to go look harder for vids from the figure girls, I saw some pics of them and thought maybe I should just become a figure fan and forget about physique lol. Like maybe I could get somewhat close to that natty at least?
ETA- like a chubby off season version of course lmao1 -
I keep thinking one day imam do it- and looking at the girls at the physique who won didn't look too big. I'm pretty big even though I'm super fluffy.TresaAswegan wrote: »Also- I'm watching the awards ceremony for bikini- "oh great suit selection"

But getting under 20% for me is super hard- and even then I would have another 15 pounds to go to get on stage- figure would have to be me. I'm way to big for bikini- and way to fluffy for physique- so that would be where I would have to go.
except. ugh- heels man- why.

Current best on this cycle.

That 5th rep almost took me out. Ha8 -

As soon as I posted that I was like WAIT the heels, nope! lol
You wouldn't have anything near that kind of competition at a smaller/local show any way. You could probably do whatever division you wanted and crush them!0 -

Squat- 275x4x1, 285x1
Deads- 285x5, 300x1, 315x1
Deadlift rep pr I guess, but I was disappointed with the singles.
Making me question what I want to shoot for at the meet. 4 more weeks though, we shall see.
Definitely one of this days where I'm like screw it I'll just be a bodybuilder instead..... but then I remember how much I like pizza.
Sigh.8 -
@TresaAswegan Nice Work!!0

maybe- I haven't been to any of the shoes- but I've seen what my gym girls look like- which is funny #pettyforaminute- people fawn on them- the little stage groupies- and I just keep looking at them and chuckling in my head because they are so tiny.
They are leaner- far leaner than I am- but I'm easily twice the size of most of them- so it's just all very comical to me.
And then I repeat Grrrl Mantra- not my competition.
They are in there working- and it doesn't *kitten* matter- it's not a popularity contest LOL- I just keep squatting away.3 -

Here's deadlifts from last night. 515 moved very, very well.9

I was sick as a dog 6-7 weeks ago and didn't train for a week. Squat? Oy, went down hard. 365 is a bytch now. Bench? Eh, went down a little, although that might be due to cutting a little bit of weight before my meet on the 25th. Deadlift? Up. :huh:
455x3. Didn't quite lock out the 3rd, but that was probably for 4 reasons: general fatigue; got a little lightheaded after the second, so I took another breath or two, but might not have been ready; tore a callus on my right middle finger which hurt like hell (wah); and TMI:shart.3 -
@TR0berts we don't judge you- it happens LOL
@TresaAswegan did you see Crystal Tate's lift from the Arnold? someone just posted it up on another group- HOLYFKCSTICK.
She pulled 600 DL.
Her total number is now 1540.
I am in awe. Truly in awe.2 -

Holy crap, no I don't think I've seen that yet!
I follow a girl on IG who pulls 500+ and I think she's only totaled 1100+ @ 165. I thought she was hella impressive, but geeze. That's like double my total lol.
Now I'm drawing a blank on the name of the younger guy who's been squatting 1000+... Ray Williams? Crazy *kitten* there too. He was on Mark Bell's powercast a while back and was like yeah I usually lift alone and this and that. Just casually squats 1000 lbs by himself... Crazy.
Sometimes I have to remind myself most of the world doesn't even lift, and then I feel slightly less inadequate lol.4 -

I just saw this
It's crazy how excited people get when someone is lean haha. Body fat is such a trivial thing though. You could take top level bodybuilders and get them a lil over fat and people would blow them off because they don't have abs so they must not be that great.
I follow (was friends with but no longer) a girl who does bikini and has lost over 100 lbs. She looks great, but not bikini competition great. She's supposedly sub 15% bf but does not look it because she has so little muscle. All the comments "omg your legs/shoulders and sub par squat, you're so wonderful!" (she loves to post like "30 lbs above bodyweight!" and I'm always like b!tch, please! I'd like to think if I got down to 15% I'd look pretty decent lol)
(Maybe I'm just salty because not many people appreciate my slightly above average squat?
)
I like eating all the food and being strong though.4 -
I have my USAPL State Referee test this Sunday! I'm actually nervous, because I get performance anxiety, which I know sounds odd from a guy who wears tight spandex that gives a good view ones package making the faces I make up on the platform odd, but there it is.7

That's really cool! I'd be nervous, too.1 -
Got the date for my second comp! May 13th - gonna bust out some PRs!5

Exactly!! I always am like- eh- YOU DON"T KNOW!!! But you're right- the rest of the world- not so much with the lifting- that's why I'm totally in love with the "not my competition" mantra- really trying to make that my actual soul and life mantra- it's hard sometimes- but there is always that stronger person- and then people who look up to you as some sort of swolemate freak of strength- but all of it is irrelevant. Just keep squatting away to be better.TresaAswegan wrote: »@TR0berts we don't judge you- it happens LOL

yeepppppp- I would be a liar if I didn't feel a little twinge of salt for similar reasons. But I just keep trying to go back to "no my competition"
but I would be happy if I had better shoulders- as if somehow that would make people take me more seriously LMAO1
