Those seem your best set of pics so far.
IMO, regardless the “name” of the poses, the objective is to do the pose to make your entire body looks its best and still fulfill what is considered that particularly called pose.
Example: Your side triceps pose displays your triceps very well, but I think that you can improve the total look of the pose. Can you twist a little more to show both pecs and your abs and serratus?

I see a significant improvement.
BTW, your side triceps pose is a vast improvement. You should also experiment with twisting more toward the front.
Okay so after talking with coach we’re seeing progress, but too little for how aggressive our approach is.
We’ve decided to call off the show as it’s unlikely to happen at this rate, and this process is doing more harm than good.
Coach sent me the reverse diet plan (at least for the next week) and we’ll monitor how my body adapts so we can transition into a gaining phase.
My body is at a point that this should be fun to watch.
I’m on a prescribed meal plan, but the macros are as follows:
Non-Training Day Estimated Macros
Protein: ~220 g
Carbs: ~135 g
Fat: ~44 g
Calories: ~1,950 kcal
Training Day Estimated Macros
Protein: ~226 g
Carbs: ~183 g
Fat: ~47 g
Calories: ~2,190 kcal
Cardio reduced from 55mins x7 days > 45mins x5 days.
Free meal this weekend.
Reducing clen 100 > 50.
Reducing t3 50 > 25.
Reducing reta 4mg > 2mg.
Gear: 350 test 200 mast only.
Dropping: winny, var, cardarine, yohimbine.
I’ll draft up some comparison pics from week 1 to today in a bit. It’s awesome to see.
magnificent 
Wow! Color me impressed.
I am okay with your decision. IMO, the first attempt at getting in contest condition is the most difficult. Your next attempt should be easier and reach a better end.
I would suggest going to the show you had targeted and watch the prejudging. It won’t equal the actual experience of competing. But you will get a better idea what to expect.
Try to place all of the contestants (with you as the judge.) I don’t believe there is anything to learn from the night show, other than to see how well you placed the contestants compared to the judging panel.

Such an insane transformation brother, you really should be proud.
Echo this, hard work and consistency paying dividends! Would have been great to see you tanned up and in perfect lighting! You must be delighted with the results… And happy to be reversing?
Yes and yes.
I would’ve liked to hit stage but it just wasnt in the cards.
Also happy to stop feeling like an emotionless zombie and dropping the tren
Woohoo! Glad you are feeling better!

Dropped FST7 shrugs because it just didnt produce the fatigue i needed it to. Unsure when I’ll stop with the FST7 sets… maybe when i feel like I’m back up to snuff with gym time. Thinking about running some Phil Hernon stuff but we’ll see.
Starting to feel like I’ve actually got some energy in the gym instead of slogging through it like i have been. Feels good.
Idk how long l keep this log going before moving over to my old one… maybe I’ll keep this one running until the reverse diet is over. I guess that’ll give a full story from start of prep to end of reverse diet.
Have you changed your supplement regimen
Yessir. I’ve dropped T3 down to 25, clen to 50, dropped winny, var, cardarine altogether.
Lowered test to 250 and mast to 200, nothing else for anabolics. AI dropped to 12.5 2x per week from 3x.
Feeling healthier by the day!
