Judging in Women's Bodybuilding has always been criticized in one way or the other. But please tell me your honest thoughts about today's judging in Women's Bodybuilding.
I believe that the judging is heading in a positive direction, and is going to keep women's bodybuilding a growing sport. I believe that keeping the look more feminine and less manly is definitely the right approach for the future of women's bodybuilding. By making these changes the sport will continue to attract more women because it is a look that is more pleasing to the eye.

 

What are your future plans for 2005?
I plan on doing the Nationals
