Thanks for the comments on my posing. I have access to a couple people who can help me with this and I realize now I need to contact them sooner rather than later.

Good, I hope I didn’t come off as too critical I am just trying to help out someone with potential reach it with some easy tweaks. I can definitely tell that your delts, lats, and traps are not lagging behind like others have said, you just don’t know how to show them off. Get that posing help and then in a few more weeks take some more pictures. I think many here will wonder how the hell you grew those muscles so quick when in reality you just learned how to properly pose.
Another good thing I’ll add - your smile is great and it is more important than many realize. First of all it lets the judges know that you are not nervous, but more importantly it helps you control your breathing. When you smile like that you can still breath quite heavily without having your stomach doing waves and it stops you from shaking as well.
I got some help with my posing and have kept cutting. Im 7 weeks out in these pics. About 6.5% BF (skin calipers) and 177lbs. Comments/critiques on posing, diet and lagging parts are appreciated. Thanks for the previous help.

Looking good. Can definitely see a difference in leanness with the new pictures. What are your measurements? Delts are coming out nice and great arms and quads. Maybe more chest?
Also, just for personal interest, what are your lifts?
Great improvements in your cutting and your posing has improved immensely. I’m glad to see you took my advice!
Looking good man. Not much you can do for your physique at this point but definitely work on your posing.
nice bro, what r u using or doing to work on the pecs i just started
Very impressive. Good luck with your show.
Thanks for the comments. Most of my focus now has switched to posing and presentation, and adjusting my carbs/cardio to try to dial in over the next 5 weeks. My lower abs have come in and Im trying to figure out if Im lean enough and merely holding water or if I still need to change things up burn off more fat. Can anyone help with this? Ill probably post a couple more pics soon.

Current chest w/o:
Inc Bb Press: 2x8; 2x12 (30sec rest b/n sets)
Db Press: 2x8; 2x15 (30sec rest b/n sets)
Inc Db Flyes 2x8; 2x15 (30sec rest b/n sets)
Pec Dec Flyes 2x8; 2x15 (30sec rest b/n sets)
Low Cable crosses 7s (1x8-12; 30sec stretch; 1x8-12; 30sec contraction) repeat 7xs
Hard to say. Looks like you could still drop a bit more fat from what I can see (I’m not expert, lol). Also, if you started tanning that would help.
Good luck man.
