Women's Figure Competitions - Tried And Tested Tips To Help With Your Contest Planning

Have you ever dreamed of being in figure competitions? This article will specify some proven tips to help your preparation for the competition. Learning how to get ready for a contest like this is very important and following these little known tips will go a long way towards making you look the best you can when competition time comes around.

Planning is Vital - before you begin any preparation work, you should plan your way forward. This plan needs to be jotted down on paper and not just kept in your head. It is also recommended for you to get the assistance of a professional coach or personal trainer who can help you make a plan specifically for you and your body type. When you have a plan, you know where you are headed, and what you must do in order to get there. You must have a different plan written down for each of the hints mentioned below.

Gym Weights Training - this involves a regular training routine in the weights room.  Select a time of day that suits your schedule, and get yourself to the gymnasium at least 4 or 5 times a week for your weights exercise. Your personal trainer will be able to produce a training workout that suits your body type and your goals for the female figure competition. Try to remember not to work out every single day (ie. overtrain). It is fantastic to be enthusiastic and think you can do it all, but exercising every day of the week is not a great plan. Your body needs time to recover, so reserve at least 1 full day for your body and muscles to recover.

Makeup - When you go to a free makeup appointment at a large retail chain store, it is recommended to take in your figure contest suit and even go with a portion of your arm tanned so that the makeup artist can match the foundation to the color of your skin with the tanning product you have on.

Stage Training - this covers a wide array of items like your walk, your smile, and your posing. With regards to your walking, grab those high heel shoes and practice walking in them until it's second nature. If you want to work on your smile, practice standing in front of a mirror and making your smile look natural and radient. In terms of your posing, you need plenty of of practice. You need to learn how to show your muscle definition, while also looking calm, natural, and relaxed. A difficult thing to do indeed. Work with a seasoned competitor or a figure trainer to help you get these things perfected.

Take these few tips and use them in your preparation for your next figure competition. You will then surprise even the most seasoned competitors with how polished and professional you are.

Train Figures
I'd like to travel from Zurich to Interlaken to Munich & back (by train). Any suggestions?

I'm an American leaving NYC to Zurich for a 7-day vacation. I'll be traveling by myself with 1 piece of luggage & a backpack. I'm trying to plan a route from Zurich to Interlaken to Munich (and back). Do you think I can do this in 7 days? Any suggestions? I'd like to do by train & just trying to figure out how to order tickets, hotel rooms, etc.

Thanks for any tips or insight.

You're about to see one of the most beautiful regions of Europe. The train ride to Interlaken is gorgeous. Check Swiss Rail's Web site, www.sbb.ch, for train schedules and trip lengths. I believe you can also buy your tix online from the site. Be sure to sit upstairs on the double-decker train to see the view. Also check the site for the trains from Interlaken to Munich. You will probably have to disembark, take a ferry across the Bodensee, then pick up a train to Munich in Friedrichshafen on the German side. It sounds a little intimidating but it's real easy, and the trains and ferries are timed so you have plenty of time for transfers. Depending on your budget, I always stay at Balmer's Herberge hostel in Interlaken. They have a chalet next to the youth hostel for older travelers. I have also stayed at the Chalet Hotel Oberland in Interlaken and enjoyed it very much. Balmer's is more personable, though.
