I am pondering the idea of competing in novice fitness next year as im definitely not ready this year. But when do you know if your really ready without going into it and embarrassing yourself?..and where might i find some good material/info on how to prepare correctly...

Here's a site that has a forum specifically for women who compete in fitness and figure. It is an magazine that will give you an idea of what look to shoot for ultimately. I have thought about doing this off and on. Not sure I would have the nerve to step on stage. But you can also Google fitness and figure competitions.

This link looks interesting, just found it:

And here's a link for a searchable database for all types of competetions.

Good luck!

also - go to a few shows and look, listen, compare.
