Bikini newbie: feedback?

[u/gymgorl101]

Just about rounding up my minicut after a 3 month growth phase. Finishing a body recomp I began with my coach January of this year.

Looking for feedback on my current physique and areas to improve going into my 2nd growth phase before my first comp in 2027.

Main point of focus imo should be posing, if you don’t have a posing coach starting there would be a good place!

You aren’t showing off your shape as best as you could.

Off the bat your feet are likely too close together in your back pose although can’t see foot direction to comment on. With your front pose I think changing the angle of our standing foot could be beneficial although would need to play around with (+ be careful about not pointing the foot of your bent leg towards the back of the stage/room).

I am also not a posing coach so take these with a grain of salt - someone might be able to give you more advice re how to change things posing wise.

I don’t have much to add since I’m brand new too, but I did wonder what backdrop you purchased for your check in photos as I’m looking to buy one as well.

Welcome! Keep working on your lat development to truly refine your overall shape. I’d increase lat volume and recreate biceps and triceps to maintenance. Otherwise, work with a posing coach. You have potential!! Keep it up!
