Just lost my first show because I wasn't feminine and pretty

natural shows from here on out. Yeah they are boring - everyone loves the freak show of unattainable muscle.

Haha...girl! There are tons of women who would kill to have your look and definition! DO NOT LET IT GET TO YOU... GO KICK SOME ASS :)
Freak show? Lol.... welcome to one of the finest here! Hehehehe
 
My wife just competed in her first figure comp, and imo, she should've won the overall. But....the judges gigged her for being what they called excessively lean. She was absolutely shredded! But that's not what they're looking for. They want a fuller look, per the npc judging criteria.

Anybody that had the discipline to get on stage in that condition is an elite athlete in our world of lazy fat asses! Hold your head high! You looked awesome for your first show!
 
Genetics aka your facial attractiveness does play a major role in both bikini & figure categories. Hell I know a couple of girls who placed lower on shows because of the lack of breast enhancement - it is what it is.

Your not supposed to come in shredded for either of these shows and in fact most bikini girls, if they don't go crazy in the off season, can come in with a short 6-8 week prep only.
I don't know if you had a coach for the show but if you did, he should've been fully aware of the level of conditioning required.

Figure has its issues but its the bikini class that pisses me off - no set standards at all, completely subjective. One of my girls won her show based off 6 months of training and being hot...that was it.

Congrats on your wife's show and it must been a grind for her to get everything right...only to have judge ding her for rather subjective things. Don't you think female judges would have done better judging females?
 
There were 2 females on the judging panel, one being as ifbb pro. But they have to judge, or supposed to judge, based on the criteria set by the NPC.

Sometimes having too many female judges actually works against us females...for some reason I noticed they are a lot more critical compared to male judges who see more or less the complete package and presentation. At least that's what I've noticed in our shows/organizations. It's also a lot of politics involved... those coaches with many athletes competing need to keep up with their reputations, etc.
 
Lol smarty pants... I'm just saying... it's like that here... for someone new, they don't realize it and that's why shouldn't take it personally.

BB is extremely subjective. Its not like 2 fighters. In most cases it will be obvious WHO the better fighter is. Its not like strongman training. If your stronger than Brian Shaw prove it! BB is a set of judges critiquing a stage full of bodies based on "criteria" but of course personal opinion will weigh in on their individual judgements. Not really some thing i can get in to. Although i do admire the products put forth

I totally agree. You really have to study judges to see what look they are after and adjust your body to be closest to it. Of course stage presence is key. Plus I noticed, there was a time they placed me high just so I move out of bikini and into figure with their feedback as they saw the potential and pushed me towards it. Sometimes it has nothing to do with how you look but where they want to see you next. That was years ago but not much has changed in that aspect...

Just came last in a bodybuilding show Because I wasn't pretty enough and I was too ripped according to judges. I don't have fake boobs. I trained hard and I only used 25mg anavar daily with clenbuterol toward the end of my cycle.

That seems to be a conservative amount with minimal androgenic side effects.

I posted a picture of my body and my face - it really hurt so bad to be called ugly in a competition. Well/ they didn't say ugly- they said I didn't meet the criteria of beauty.

I'm so confused and hurt and lost and don't know what to do.

Any suggestions? ( me without tan stuff on)
Sorry to hear this, hopefully you can use the anger to motivate you to new places.

Bikini is basically a sex show, but physique is supposed to be a lot about PHYSIQUE. I don't see any pics, but your avatar looks nicely toned and built, maybe I'm missing something....?
