2013 IFBB Women’s Physique division has become a very competitive one. The women are coming in more streamlined and the ladies can’t afford to be off their game. Tonight, Tycie Coppett brought her best look to date and the judges rewarded her for it. She presented a tiny waist, nice conditioning but not over the top. She does have more muscle than some of the other women but she carries it well.
Mindi O’Brien continues to find her groove in the Women’s Physique division after making the switch from Fitness. Nagging injuries have prevented her from competing in the Fitness division and she’s found her way into the top spots in the Physique division. Mindi has a little bit wider waist than some of the other competitors which can hurt her if she doesn’t pose in a flattering manner. She’s a seasoned veteran to competition and she knows how to nail her conditioning. Mindi was on the money but just not as streamlined as Tycie. A second place finish is a solid placing though. Last year’s champ, Tamee Marie was a bit off with her tanning in the morning. She appeared a bit too light and had an ashy look to her. She corrected it for the night show but the little details could have cost her a placing. She finished in third which is a good showing in this group.
Karin Hobbs could have gotten the nod over Tamee but was relegated to fourth. She has a bit more muscle than some other women in this line-up but overall she did well. The surprise of the competition could have been fifth place finisher, Carrie Simmons. Carrie also made the move from Fitness and this was the best we’ve seen her look since turning pro. She knows how to exude sex appeal on stage without being over the top and kudos to her for nailing her conditioning.
