How to Pose

Side Arm - I like this pose. You can put your feet like you are doing a side chest/triceps shot or you can put them like they are in the picture (i prefer the way they are in the picture). Now, bring the arm you’re posing up and make your back show, don't bring it too close to your chest, but don't let it go that far out.....flex your arm, you’re your thumb inside of your fist. The trick is your other arm - you want it to show, but you don't want it sticking out. Let it hang behind you but keep your elbow bent and your forearm and triceps flexed, keep your thumb inside of your fist like always. Push that arm up against your back to make both your back and your arm look thicker. Bend your wrist up so your hand is facing outward behind you.

Side Arm Shot #2 - This is another good one but try to avoid it if your legs aren't so great. Start out with your better leg, stick it out to the side, flex everything on it, calf, hamstring and quad. Flex the other leg as well and bend it slightly. Now - use the arm that is on the same side as the leg you’ve stuck out, (if your left leg is out, then use your left arm). Put your arm out and make it parallel with that same leg. Flex it hard, making sure that the lat is coming out with it. Now, with the other arm do a slight lat spread with it, flex the arm, put your fist next to your hip making sure NOT to cover up your abs. Flex your chest and shoulders, you can either flex your abs or vacuum them in. Make sure to look at your bicep, don't look toward the audience. The best place to look is right where your elbow bends, this makes your chin almost parallel with your arm & leg.
