Cool 2 Competitions In A Row?

The competition I'm training for to look my best in is Jr Nationals on June 19-20. I was thinking about doing a competition on June 13 for practice/preparation/get the nerves out. My concern is depleting my body for the first competition going to have a negative effect on the second competiton which is a pro card earning show? I've done back to back shows in the past, but they were local shows, not national shows.....

Any suggestions on whether or not this is a good idea? I don't want to jeopardize any chance of earning my pro card.

My best advice would be to just go into your June 13 show conditioned as you are and save any manipulations you're planning to do for the week before jr nationals which is your priority. You wouldn't want anything to backfire on you so better play it safe

GOOD LUCK!

For me it is the tan - I can never get it right the 2 show in a row. By that time it is starting to peel/shed. Maybe your skin would be different.
