    I wouldn't suggest going into bikini competing unless you have been lifting weights for at least a year or 2. Then you need to research a coach to help you. I would say a coach is pretty much necessary for your first show. And make sure you do a lot of research..some coaches have no idea what they are doing and you just end up doing massive amounts of cardio and eating tilapia 5x a day.. I did my first show this year. You have to be able to dedicate several months of your life to food prepping, counting macros/calories daily, and exercising 5-6 days a week. It's not easy, and it's hard to maintain a social life..so you need to be prepared to give up certain aspects of your life during that time.
