    Don't be afraid to apply more than two coats - you can never be too dark on stage. Those lights are not forgiving and will wash out the physique if not enough color is applied.

    I have used both...

    My 2 cents, definitely try to find someone to work with for your first show. It helps so much to have someone in your corner to take the guesswork out of what needs to be done next. Try contacting...

    Have to agree with this. By 4 weeks, you should be nearly ready. Are you doing men's physique or bodybuilding?

    Not sure about this but I suppose anything is possible under the right conditions. I don't mess with distilled water - plain 'ol Brita filtered water works just fine :) Why don't you ask your prep...

    Is she working with a coach for diet and training? Also, what are her current stats? For me, personally, I would want to be farther along at 6 weeks out, but it also depends on how she is looking to...

    ??? I think his color is perfect. Too many competitors step on stage without enough color. Definitely invest in a coach next time around :)

    Don't forget that you are consuming a lot more food than when you were dieting for your show (regardless of it being healthy). Your body will eventually adjust to the increase in calories and the...

    You should be fairly close to being ready by 4 weeks out. If you have a significant amount of weight to lose, don't expect much out of these next few weeks, even with drastic diet/cardio measures....

    What are you eating right now? Can you post your diet? Do you feel like you've noticed any visual changes in the mirror? I try to go mostly by what I see in the mirror since my weight tends to...

    I down quite a few PB&J rice cake sanwiches during a 1-1.5hr window. My stomach is really sensitive so that's the one thing I keep going back to since I know it won't make me feel like crap.

    The thing about this sport is how subjective it is. It really depends on the area, the type of show (local or National) and the judges. IMO you look great for bikini. The only advice I can offer is...
