    Upper body is very good - I think your legs could do with some more, have you got a quad sweep? Hard to tell. But good job nonetheless, esp with 15 weeks to go

    I think you are looking quite good but do you have a better lower pose photo? I think it's just the picture but it makes your lower body look very small compared to the upper.

    I'm almost wondering if you would do better in the physique category? That's just IMO

    Thank You

    Legs are my weakest link...I am working them twice a week to put on size. But the first goal when I decided to compete was to get them to match my upper body - its tough! I do not want to have to decrease the size of my upper body at all..and actually would like to increase it slightly. Here is another shot of the legs.

    You look amazing! I agree with the others about your legs, but all things considered, Nice Job!! Glad to see someone who built first, i was happy to find it wasnt the thread i thought it was.

    No one is going to care more about your progress than you. Everyone else is too busy chasing their own. You either do what you need to do to progress, or you remain where you are. The choice is yours.

    I decided to compete and found my trainer in October. My arms have always looked like this...its the rest of me that needs work Why are the legs so tough to build! I am glad I have 15 weeks...and that I train them twice a week! I just purchased a Bodycraft Elite home gym...so I can really focus on training while I am not with my trainer as well. Thanks everyone so much for the feedback!!
