Those who choose to do some alcohol prior to going on stage are doing it for the vasodialation effect not for diuretic purposes.

And for some...not the best choice. After dieting, diuretics and dehydrating ones self for show...can backfire. I've seen many girls who need'nt have done this pass out on stage!Originally Posted by FireGuy

Ah, that makes sense! I've always felt more vascular following a martini but just assumed placebo.

ahh yeah my mistake. I just went back and read it again. Also explains the drunk flush or bushing of the face. Opening up the capalaries in the skin

I think you should go on and compete in it. Even if you come in last, which I don't think you will, you'll have this experience to build on.

Do you know what show she is doing? Have you seen the list of her fellow competitor? Have you read the NPC judging criteria for the Bikini Class? How many NPC bodybuilding shows have you personally attended? Even if your answers are "yes, yes, yes, and several" How can possibly tell her you dont think she will come in last? Doesnt matter what person I may be helping get ready for a show (or myself), if someone asks "How do you think I will place"? The answer is always, somewhere before first and last. Not trying to be overly critical here but what exactly will she "build upon" by spending a ton of money and stepping on stage for a show she hasnt prepared properly for?

Quick, loose critique. You're just gonna whither away if you don't implement at very least those suggestions, maybe more carbs yet.
Knowledgeable~Female Member
in total agreement.
all you'll look like on stage is a twig...not a "bikini model"
Knowledgeable~Female Member
I think your too low calorie...your going to starve your body for the nutrients it needs.
You'll loose weight...fast...and not in a healthy way

Looking better. My issues are still with the extremities mainly. More definition of quad heads and definition between arm/shoulder. Again, both will be achieved with a high protein diet that's not too low on calories as Kawi said. Your body fat isn't the main issue, you don't have much that needs to go - it's just losing it while adding/maintaining lean mass to give you definition in those areas. You can't just become a lighter version of your current self.

Not sure how the pics appear to have been posted by Focusmen and not the OP, but that's neither here nor there.
Maybe it's me or the lighting, but I see a pretty dramatic difference from the last set of pics, in a good way. Don't take that the wrong way; you could have been hitting it hard and making great strides, so i'm not doubting your hard work!
I would just take heed of what Damien and Kawi said; you don't want to lose LBM along with the bodyfat. You don't have far to go, so keep your food intake up, keep working out and doing your cardio and you'll get there!

As you can see we did take the pics with a differnet back drop and lighting. that may have something to do with the difference in apperence but she has also came down in all her measurments...

I'm confused now... you said we - how are you involved? Sorry if I missed something earlier in the thread that answers this question. =)
Pissing Excellence!
you have definitely made some progress! especially in the mid-section and glutes. i agree with damien, need to get those quads a little more developed. and by the way, i have no competition experience what so ever, just giving my two cents.

nice and noticable improvements, a way to go yet, but definitely showing progress.

Biggest improvement I see is in her posture. Although, she needs to work on the pose from the back. Pinching too much causing her shoulder blades to pop out.

Focusman are you the photographer?
I too am confused.....all of the sudden you have new photos of Way11...

He trains with her doesnt he
Dnt i remember 11way saying that her male friend got her to join this site?
AR's Diet Pimp! ~HOF~
^ ^ this!!!
Maybe that's what it is, it's all I could figure too. That would explain Focus getting defensive (no offense brotha) early in the thread when FG was talking about being able to see these same girls anytime in a bar or by the pool.

11way is my girlfriend... in real life. The pics were on my computer so i uploade them, didnt know this would be a problem. lol
I dont recall ever getting "defensive"... i was just disagreeing with his stamentment. thats what this forum seems to be all about. haha
~Knowledgeable Female Extraordinaire~
^^^^ well....you've got a nice looking girlfriend!
AR's Diet Pimp! ~HOF~
Not a problem at all man, just confusing, at least for me (and Slimmer evidently!).
Now you're getting defensive about me calling you defensive... lol - i'm just fvcking with u bro.
x2, and props to you for having the balls to post her pics and listen to criticisms.

Is there a good technical way to test bf%. I'm told I'm between 8-11%. But wish it was more accurate
9/11/2001~343 Never Forget!~E-HOF~RETIRED
How much leaner than these two girls are you? Thats MrsFire on the left at 11% bodyfat and the girl to her right is close to 10%.
Female Member
Way to go 11Way!! Congrats to you!

She competed.... and did DAMN WELL for her first time.
CONGRATS!!

The girls in the pic above are all like 16-18% rollergirl - I doubt you're 8-11%
Transformation Challenge Trainer
^^ i agree, 8-11% for females is competitive female BB's on stage BF percentage
Female Member
I would say my body is very similar to the girl in purple
