Well, I just got back a couple of days ago from working the Team U/ National Figure Championships in NY, as well as the NY Pro Figure show. It seems like the judging criteria is leaning more towards the lean, streamlined look, and less muscle. I noticed this on both the amateur and pro level. Interesting. It is unfortunate for the women who have trained for many years to build muscle and who possess muscle maturity, just to be marked down as too muscular.

 

I'm going to make an attempt at coming in leaner than ever for the Motor City show. My goal is to be five pounds lighter than my usual contest weight of 107-108 lbs. Again, I say "attempt". I can't remember the last time I was under 105 lbs. I think it had something to do with food poisoning.....lol...
