Hey,
my name is jen! im from newfoundland, canada and 23 years old. i'm planning on competing in my first figure comp in november :) I've always been athletic playing soccer and hockey all my life. i am 5'1 , 130 pounds right now with 20% body fat. i just want to make sure that the way i am training right now is good until august when i start cutting. i workout mon-sat, do each muscle group once a week. i was wondering for getting ready for figures do i keep doing what i am now which is 4 sets od 8-10 with med heavy weight.. is that right when training for a figure comp????

I wouldn't worry so much about training as I would diet. Even though you might not be cutting right now you really want to make sure your diet is on. I am a firm believer that it's 80% diet and 20% gym. Good luck on your comp!! Your training should be in line with your goals are you still trying to build? Maintain? Do you have certain areas you are focusing on?
