I placed 2nd in Novice and 5th in Open in the Carol Semple Fitness and Figure Championships this past weekend, so I have my invitation to jr nationals which is what I wanted. I am just really confused on what they are looking for, after the judges talked to me and told me that I am to big for nationals I am really discouraged because I look at the pics of the girls that are winning nationals and they are bigger than me!! The judges said that my body was awesome (wide shoulders, great legs) except that my back was to big and that I needed to detrain my lower back because it looked like a body builders back...don't know exactly what that means but oh well. Any Help Would Be Greatly Appreciated!!
