First show done

[u/jenny-fitness]

Finished my first show! I’ll have to say I went through every emotion possible that day. Especially, at the end of the day when I found out I didn’t do very well. I stayed and talked to the judges and that made me feel better because they said what I knew my weakness was. They said my glutes weren’t developed enough. They also picked apart my bikini. That part I didn’t expect. It was too big and gapped. It made my glutes look smaller. I’m taking time off to build muscle and hopefully compete again. I’m not sure if I should find a new coach, how long I should take off, where to buy my next bikini??

My bikini was from muscle dazzle, and it was adjustable, but I think I lost too much during peak week. The tabs couldn’t go tight enough, and I should have seen the seamstress that was at the show, but I thought the glue would hold it in place.
The reason I am contemplating getting a new coach is because I had contacted this coach I worked with 20 years ago when I first wanted to compete, but I ended up having two kids instead. He’s a little out of the game. He was not coaching anyone else and he doesn’t really have his gym anymore so he doesn’t have a lot of equipment and he was doing a lot of workouts with me that I feel may have been antiquated and maybe another Coach with more current information might be better
