Posing is different for bodybuilding and figure. Which one are you doing?

Generally, judges are looking for a different physique for each category. While you may cross over in some shows, you'd be better off choosing the discipline that is better for your frame and physique at this time.

It is best to get a local competitor or judge to teach you how to pose. That way you're not relying on what you think is correct, you can have hands-on training and corrections.

I would call around your local gyms as sometimes they hold posing seminars.

Good luck!
