On the side tri - put your legs the same way as you do w/ the side chest - dont' lock out your back leg. Also make sure you do the whole 'roll' thing w/ the tri pose - roll your shoulder forward to back - remember that on stage you need to show the WHOLE row of judges and WHOLE audience so show 'em everything. Also gives you a totally cool chance to show off the shoulder striations that pop at various angles.
Lat spreads are a bitch. I have to start by sticking my arms behind my back and sticking my thumbs all the way to my spine. Then roll shoulders back / chest up like a cable row and pull out from the widest point in your back - I used to try to pull my shoulders up to get the flare out, but if you can visualize the lats, like right under your shoulders flaring out. Another way you might feel it more is if you visualize like how the ridiculously hyuge BB guys do those step-wise flare outs - like roll it out in steps where it keeps getting bigger & bigger? Hard to describe....
Abs & thighs - these are great for showing off a whole bunch of different angles - make sure you do a lock out on your legs - that's the best time you get to show off a nice quadsweep and any striations that may show up...
oi. I have to practice the lat spread.
I went through the whole sequence you suggested to me (with the quarter turns). Jeff timed me through a couple of them until I hit 60 seconds, exactly. I think I'll go in on my non-cardio mornings and practice this. for some reason, this sequence of moves is calming to me. lol

naughty food.
Jeff and I went to the mall today - hit GNC for some more flax oil - and the smell of the food court about knocked me over. Jeff had chinese food. I had...9oz chicken with salad greens and a diet pepsi. lolol. Packed my lunch to the mall.

It is actually pretty cool when you can execute them all comfortably - that's where you get the smoothness for good presentation.
Also helps w/ timing so you hold the poses long enough for presentation - when you get on stage it is really easy to go too fast because there's just so much going on & the adrenalin rush, etc. Get comfortable w/ those moves and they are yours for life takniteasy

Once you get the lat spread the first time, you never, ever forget it. Like Sassy said, trying to visualize the spread. I know I took about 3 weeks before it finally clicked and now all I have do is think it. And boy oh boy, when you get it, you will be magnificent!
