Hey everyone!
I wanted to share my journey with you and my thoughts/feelings 18 days out from stepping on the WNBF World Stage in Boston. After competing for the first time ever this year and making my bikini debut at WNBF and then UKDFBA the following week - I really had no idea the world I was stepping into with bodybuilding and didn't set any expectations for myself. To now be granted the opportunity to compete at World's representing the WNBF GB team - well, I still have to pinch myself and can't express how grateful I am to be living this.

The weight gain post show to then reduce and cut right back has been a challenge. The snippet of freedom I had and now to reign it back in is tough - mentally and physically but I'm determined to bring my best package yet to my final comp of the season and with being so close to stepping on stage, I won't let the tough, tiring days defeat me.
The posing criteria is slightly different for USA too, and with 3 weeks out it's safe to say I had a few wobbles of panic but Hannah has been fantastic and reassured me I will be just fine. In our virtual lessons, we always focus on the basics first - front pose, side shot, back pose, side shot making tweaks and adjustments where necessary. This is where Hannah's attention to detail and invaluable feedback has been amazing for my journey, where I continue to see improvements week to week. Once the adjustments have been made in these areas, we move onto focus on transitions and the overall package, which is what we went through in today's session and I've come away feeling far more confident in my capabilities - thank you Hannah!
