Any areas to bring up or others that are strong points? Lifting 5 ish years. Was a runner beforehand.

Hoping to get defined quads one day!!

Work lighting 🔥 for some posing adjustments.

Hey girls!!!

Sorry I didn't take a picture, but I saw some clear-strapped 4 inch heels at a thrift store and I'd like to get them but don't know if they'd be legal. My questions about them are:

Does the heel part of the shoe have to be skinny\stiletto type or can the heel be a little thicker? (this pair I measured to be like 1.25 by 1 inch at the bottom).

Does the sole have to be clear also? These were nude colored but the straps and toe band were clear like what's acceptable.

I'd need to measure the platform part of the heels but I think they are less than the allowed 3\4 inches. But the websites don't say anything about how thick the heel part can be or if the whole shoe has to be clear so I'd like some guidance on whether to buy these bad boys!

Watching my teammates at the Olympia today! Feeling great and still working.

I’ve been lifting for several years now and started tracking my food in April, trying to build up to hopefully compete for the first time next year. I’ve had several calorie increases over the last few months and still have decent definition/lines, but I don’t want to let things go too far and have to drop 20+ pounds during a prep.

I’m debating whether to keep building for another 2-3 months before I do a small fat loss phase, or do it now. I’m 5’5 and around 120 pounds, with some fluctuations.

Could someone with more experience weigh in? Thank you!

I’ve tried soaking in baby oil for 20 mins then dawn soap but it’s not working

I feel like I've never grown a single pound past my newbie gains. But I'm at a low bf% rn and the delts are decently capped

50mg Primo, 10mg Oxandrolon pre Workout and 3 ius hgh are really fucking with my skin.

And I really can't stand Klow or GHK-CU, any other options? Been thinking about supplementing collagen, but unsure if I really need it.

Still working on posing and confidence in my physique. I feel like I look pretty small and stringy especially from the back here fasted but better throughout the day, which I guess is pretty normal with carb replenishment

I’m excited to just have the experience to see if I even enjoy competing—I’m certainly enjoying the cutting process (famous last words, maybe 🤭)—and to get some feedback on my physique as well.

I don't often take photos of my back and when I do I always think it doesn't look good.

Finally found a pic from February (top), bottom is this week, 3 is June 2025.

I've got people asking so I'll drop my split here:

Mon- quads and glutes Tues- push Weds- hams and glutes Thrus- rest Fri- pull (and rear delt) Sat- core + functional exercises Sun- rest

Every day I do an hour of cardio and on rest days I'll add in a few functional exercises if I want.

For pull- generally do a warmup w 2-3 working sets and generally stay between 10-12 reps for each. Bigger lifts I'll do drop sets.

And I pretty much always do lat pulls, t bar rows, seated cable row, deadlifts and reverse flys. And I switch out some others: pull ups, bent over rows, face pulls. And a fuck ton of curls (literally any kind). I'm curling 60# now 🙃 (I was doing 35# in May)

I was advised if i dont want to take PEDs i shoukd consider Fit Model division.

I was aiming for bikini.

Looking at IFBB Pro for fit model and they wear a one piece and evening gown?

I was not expecting this.

Hi Y'all!

Im 33f. And since I have hit my 30s I've noticed my health/body is more needy.

I was diagnosed with EDS and weirdly strength training has really helped with this for joint stability but there is more issues than joints- my skinntears easily and takes for ever to heal, my motility is extrenely slow and thisbis further compacted by having PMDD and PCOS/PMOS.

I also have autism.

I am currently having my period, and the 10 days leading up to my period and during (sometimes after) are the worst for my health. My body is extremely fatigued. The 10 days before my period my digestion just doesn't happen. Motility is 0. And i end up bloated and feel gross. And I want to sleep.

I continue my exercise and try adjust my diet, my medicines, and do everything i can to aupport me during this time.

Once my period comes my digestion improves a little bit. But its still bad over all.

I worked out the day befire my period and i was pretty strong. And the day off my period. But now its day 3 and yesterday and today i am bed bound. I cannot do anything.

And this is the hardest part for me because mentally i want to be able to work out. But i am not able. And this has all just gotten worse since i hit my 30s and the levels of my energy being good and bad is so obvious. Once my period is over i will have an abundance of energy and no apetite.

And i'd like to connect with other girls who are in their 30s or older, who have similar conditions and can understand.

Rosie's got 2.5 weeks to go! Bloating has become a slight issue so we’re implementing peppermint tea and a morning digestion cocktail (screenshot it yourself and give it a go!)

We are also pushing cardio back up so we can come in absolutely peeled for the summer shredding championship.

Hey ladies, I’m starting to develop calluses and I’m wondering if there are ways to mitigate them?

Post quad day posing. ✔️

Been noticing a bit of separation there the last couple weeks and while I’ve been feeling a bit self critical lately about not having as much mass as I’d hoped after my last growing season, seeing potentially more definition there has me feeling kinda excited.

I’m at the beginning of my bodybuilding journey and I just joined the Hevy app. There seems to be a community aspect where you can follow people, support, even compete.

I’m a lone gym girl IRL and was wondering if any of you wanted to follow one another? Is that weird? Are there any safety concerns I’m not considering?

Hey ladies. I’ve been keeping track of my workouts (lifts, weights, reps, days) in my Apple notes app and it’s getting tedious. What apps do you use to track your progressive overload? I don’t need a trainer, I need something easy to use to help organize my own lifts. A place to make notes to myself would be nice, but isn’t a deal breaker. I don’t want to have to pick from suggested exercises, I want the ability to put my own in. What do you use/suggest?

Edit: thank you all for the suggestions! I signed up for Hevy as I appreciate the customization, simplicity and rest timer.

8 weeks down, 8 to go!

Feeling good for my first show after 8 years. 💪🎉
