Kristi Marie Barker
British Finals Ladies Bodybuilding 4th place
This was not about the placing on stage.
It was purely about presenting a physique that she liked and wanted to show.
I only started helping Kristi after her qualifying show earlier this year, and in order for Kristi to make it to today's show, we had to revive her physique and bring her back to life, as she had severely over-dieted and her physique was not going to survive another show had she continued on that path. Mentally she was done, and the worst part is she did not like how she looked.
Now, the condition she took to the stage was not enough for her to challenge the top spots, but it was a physique that she was very happy with.
As a coach, I have to think about what is best for the individual, even if it isn't quite what the judges want.
Today she enjoyed her stage time.
That is more important. ππ»
