TweetHey FG family...well Nikki took 2nd Place in the Master's 40+ Figure, she went up against 3 women in her division, geez there must have been 100+ bikini competitors, and 1 womens physique...should have entered Nikki in a couple of other divisions but this being her first show did not want to overwhelm her...so here are some pictures from the show and I will let all of you decide what you think...I thought she had better conditioning, better muscle fullness, better areas than the other girl and the pictures are just of the 1st and 2nd place...the other gal wasn't in the equation...

Tweetbig man i am raising the bs flag on this one. unless they scored her down for being to lean then she got robbed. she fits the judging criteria to a t. congrats nonetheless and she looks fantastic

TweetHere are some more solo shots of her...







Here is one rear shot with the other competitor in it...

So there is a story behind the gal who beat her...politics probably, sucks that it is in everything we do...the girl who took first place this too was her warm up show as she is heading to the Nationals...already qualified, so like this was Nikki's tune-up show for the one we have been targeting July 12th, so yeah the judges were favoring her possibly??? Would the NPC judges want her to place lower than 1st at a show prior to her going to Nationals??? You know guns...I too will be competing this year but the one thing I did do yesterday was network and talked with the judges, sponsors, and promoters letting them know...as some did ask me...that I will be competing in October and November. It was pretty cool when after 7 years off the competition road that several of the judges and promoters remembered who I was and was asking if I too was competing this year...but man the guy who took the show for the mens open bodybuilding was crazy big, cut, and just looked pro!!! I have some work to do...and my brother guns may be hitting you up here for some brotherly advice along the way.

It was a great experience for both Nikki and I as most were astonished that her coach was her husband, this guy I met Norm Johnson, who has a women team called the Femme Fatale said Nikki came in perfect and he was blown away I coached her through it all...including her nutrition and prep. He gave her and I some pointers on her posing which will be used for the next show, we will try and bring her in just the same but posing will be dialed better.

Thanks buddy for your comment...I wish I could post face pictures as my oldest daughter came with us and did mom's make-up and did it well!!! She actually could do competiton make-up at shows...but she will be doing it for our new founded competition team...Team Coastside!!!

TweetTo me and I have idea what the judges are looking for but Nikki's legs arms and abs blow the winners away. The middle girl who won I guess has a nice back. Nikki look the best standing with her statue she seems happy. The 1 side pose she beat the winner to death. You both are great and Nikki will be taking first soon I would bet on that. Thanks so much for keeping us updated.

TweetHuge Congratulations!!! First Show ever, Great job Nikki. Your legs alone should have blown everyone else away, beautiful. There was absolutely no comparison and they are ripped from every angle. You'll take this next one.
