Look right on track. Hammies and low back need to tighten a bit but should in time. In RDB get your elbows up higher, it also actually helps to allow ur stomach to pooch out a bit (judges wont see) and you can add a slight head turn to accentuate the trapezius lines. Keep it up. Any chance your doing master Nationals in July? I think you would do good in your age group.

Go look up old pics from the last 2 years in your age group and class and judge fro yourself. I think you could potentially do well. I can tell you that you need to be shredded. Glutes, hams, x-mas tree. All tops guys are and its a tough show. Its also good to do it a few times so they get to know you. I did it 2 yeras ago and got smoked 15/26 in heavies, but class was tough and I dropped to much weight 8 lbs the final week.. Hoping for a better shot this year. Its exactly 11 weeks from today. food for thought

I would say the biggest improvement would come from better posing, you can hit much better poses than those pictures. I would say calves could come up a bit, as for the back/shoulders/biceps i can't tell from that pose.
One tip for you, always keep tight when waiting while others are called out, the judges are still watching you!
