Unconditioned people on stage. Rant.
I have seen this way more in women’s division, specifically bikini and wellness. I am an amateur bikini athlete myself, just to preface.
I see so many women competing when looking 20+ pounds under conditioned. Many of them have thousands of followers and are sponsored by big companies.
They talk about how prep is “the hardest thing they’ve ever done” and how they “stayed on plan the whole time” but HOW?? It was basically just a 16ish week diet where you lost SOME weight. I know I’m being negative and hating right now, I’m sorry. It is just hard for me to see a girl in a sparkly bikini with a spray tan on stage who barely looks like she works out putting herself in the same category as us.
Thoughts?
