Short1 - Bodybuilding Competition Log

You should be proud of his progress. He has come a long way in such a short time. Keep nagging it seems to be working...lol.


Do you know if it would be possible for me to get some here in Australia??
I would love to get some of this for myself as from what I have read about it it will cut my tanning time which will suit me perfectly. With 4 small kids I find it hard to get time to tan.

there is an australian company who did the research on it - they used a bunch of test subjects. Company is called Clinuvel. Tehy call it epitan in Australia.

ok. took some pictures today. I was alone, so you'll have to suffer through the bad photography. sorry. I kept the camera low. this helped me a lot with some of the poses - I now see better at what angle I need to present myself.

my lat spread still needs some work - but it's getting better. Jeff says he'll help me out some more tonight. (he was the biggest help so far out of anybody here - and he's never competed in his life. lolol) go figure.

I also took video of my posing practice today. I'm downloading editing software from Adobe right now - so probably won't get that posted until later tonight or tomorrow.

Everything is coming in sooo nicely! My couple comments -

I'm not sure how you want to do your side chest - I've always tried to avoid that twist & bend to keep the line across your shoulders straight. Also reduces the squish down on your abs -- up & high, chest out, rotate from the waist shows off a really nice lean waist. IMO anyway.

Rear poses - you said you were working on an alternative to the up on the toes poses -- I woudln't do the rear foot flat on the ground and I woudltn' do it straight back -- I'd put it out to the side & back - same idea as your front poses. I tried to find some good specific examples of this --- here's a couple --

-- look at the women's bb comparison pictures for rear lat & rear dbl bi
-- look at the ALL pictures - in the first 4 pages there are some nice rear poses to look at as well -- its a matter of finding a pose that looks elegant but also allows you to plant your feet well so you dont' tip over.

The smile is great - make sure you make eye contact w/ each of the judges too! (Don't stare at them like you're a stalker ....) but so they make the connection with you.

With the size of your legs I think this one might be an option for leg placement.
