He is the owner of a Gold's Gym here, previous competitor, wife has competed, has worked with 60+ (#) women -- 1 pro fitness, 2 champions, and several who've done their 1st show & won & others who've placed in their first show then did another in a year & won.....He said the Sept show is a Natural show so it will be a LOT different than the girls I saw at Sassy's show.

He seemed kinda impressed with what I've been doing already -- the fact that I keep a log/journal and my diet, which he said is pretty clean. He seemed kinda surprised at the % of bf I have considering my basic diet. He says for me to compete I need to lean out. Calipered me (7 site) at 20.7%

He doesn't seem to be a big "supplement guy." Meaning he suggest a Multi + glutamine but didn't go into a diatribe on "other stuff." His plan would basically tweak what I'm doing now & when I see him again he will give me a plan -- which I need to follow so he can track what works & doesn't. I DON'T have to work out at his gym.

He would want me to lose 20lbs of fat for Figure & 25lbs of fat for BBing. We can decide @ 8 weeks out which we'd do. His costs are: $100 down & $40 when I see him --> 1st month = 1x; then every 2 weeks till the last 4 weeks; then 1x per week or 2x per week if I do BBing.

He can assist me with posing. He does posing clinics ($15). He said my body type is similar to another woman he trains, so he believes my body fat will be hard to move. Oh and he said my skin is still thick. So he wants to adjust my diet to stay 1 step ahead from body adaptation. He thinks my body has adapted to what I've been doing......

SO -- now what to do........
 
You have to remember everyone has a different approach :)

And what Bunny said how do you feel about what he said?

This right here is a dangerous statement!!!!!

Just because someone else is taking or doing something, doesn't mean YOU SHOULD. You need to find out WHY they are taking it!

OK then, if anyone can tell me what are they taking and why, what does it do, so I can decide if its for me or not...

That is true....about the diff. approaches.....And I've never done a contest so I'd have to rely on someone else with experience, etc...

I thought he was nice & easy to talk to....

Hubby said it best: So, you're going to pay this guy to do what?? Tell you what to eat & what to do (workout)?? That's it??

But I do realize competition & "life" are 2 diff. animals.....

Huney I wasn't trying to be mean, it's just alot of girls come on here and try and follow what someone else is doing. And our bodies are all different what works for me will not necessarily work for you.

Sorry if it came across harsh :rose:
