Teen female BB comps

[pinkbunny55]

My daughter (bless her little heart) wants to get into comps for teen females.
We have looked and they do allow for teen bb, but we see no info for females at all. She does not know what the judges would look for and if she should train for "fitness" or for "Body building" or even IF teen girls are in the comps.

Any help or direction would be appreciated!!!!

Thanks heaps
Bunny

How old is your daughter? How long has she been training? She should take her time and not rush into competition.

Hey Pink, you could probably get a good answer and some upcoming comps by logging on to www.jefftaylor.com . He's the NPC head for Colorado and I believe Utah as well. Good luck!

Thanks heaps!!

I read some great responses to this question and we are going to some comps to see what to expect. I think she is like me (poor kid) and just need some where to focus her energy. I am at least realistic and know she needs to stay "natural" until she is like 50 or so - or mature enough to make her own decisions about it.
She sees how well she did when she worked out last summer with me a little and she was impressed - more inpressed that she became stronger than some of the boys!!!
SHe is 15 this week, but showing her that nutrition and fitness just need to be part of her life is the most imporntant thing to feel good about her self - not some comp that tells her she is good enough.
Kinda coool to have your kid work out with you - but she better not out lift me!!!!!
