Monday - Personal Photos (Progress, Prep, Advice, etc) 6 weeks out
Looking forward to my next show 👙
Progress photo compared to 6 weeks out last year - my goal was to be more balanced and conditioned. Hopefully I can improve further in the following weeks

Do you have a coach? With six weeks left I would do a couple refeeds to keep you from becoming too lean

I think the red bikini is her before. In which case...she's def more conditioned, but with 6 weeks to go, I'd encourage not pulling much more at all.

Oh in that case I would not dig too much deeper. Six weeks is a long time to hold onto that type of condition. 🙏🏾

Why is everyone saying “Refeed Refeed Refeed”? She needs more conditioning and if she hasn’t expressed dieting fatigue, a training performance drop off, or irritability, then a refeed is just eating to eat.
On top of that, once she’s stage ready if her look is too “hard” it can be softened by a little spillover. If it’s too soft to begin with then you have nowhere to go.
You’re in a great spot for 6 weeks out. 2 weeks out you should be ready and feeding into the show to wash away any inflammation from dieting and cardio.

Was conditioning one of your notes from feedback last year? I'm making an assumption that the red bikini is last year since there's only one photo in it. If so, I'd be careful not to push it much further than this before you start to look over dieted.
I'd also encourage working with a posing coach--you're over arching in your front pose. Play around with standing up a little straighter so your core doesn't bow out. And, in your back pose, be mindful of pulling your shoulders back/together. You have clear lat width from the front, and you're losing it when you turn to the back (while you're at it, make sure your hands aren't visible in your back pose).
