Preparing for my first Figure Competition

Options
I started lifting weights last year and decided to compete in my first figure competition this year. Anyone else on this mission for 2014?

    That's awesome! I personally would just like to loose at least 15 lbs for the gym competition this June as to anything else not sure just yet. :wink:

    I'm looking at doing one in 2015 and am really intimidated about where to start. Would love any advice/encouragement/friends!

    I just made the decision last month- Im cranky with the food adjustment, but am so dedicated im finding it easy to follow my diet- now getting the right balance of cardio/weights is tricky. Add me :) I need more like-minded friends

    I have considered competing. I have a friend who does and she is very inspiring. I definitely train like I'm preparing for a competition. I have a lot of body fat to lose before I would even go near a stage. I'm currently working on that and improving my body composition. I would love to have friends who are of that mindset. :smile:

    Hi all! I would love to do a figure competition towards the end of the year. Swapping food plans, exercises would be awesome. I'm still new to weights but I do enjoy lifting. I use to have a huge fear of getting bulking like a She-Hulk LOL. Now I realize I can look slamming and still look feminine sexy AND keep the 'twins' :) I will definitely check out the FB page provided thanks...would love to connect with you all as well.
