Following a very successful first half of 2012  the second half was a whirlwind ride for the Physical Edge Figure, Shape and Bikini team.

It kicked off on in preparation for July 28 at the NZ fitness Expo with Johanna having trained up 21 year old beauty Alexandra Foster in just 12 weeks for the Raechelle Chase Fitness Model Search.

45 girls strutted the stage, battling it out for the top five places with two rounds; a Fitness Wear round and a Bikini round.

Alexandra stood out a mile with her stunning, toned body and flawless posing which had been coached and perfected by Johanna.

Physical Edge was delighted when Alex placed 4^th out of the 45 gorgeous ladies. An exciting moment for Alex and a proud one for Jo.

The very next weekend was the NZIFBB Auckland Champs and Jo had three girls ready for the stage. Alexandra was competing once again but in the Bikini class along with Claudia Coles who Jo had been training for this event since the start of the year.

Alex placed 2^nd out of a huge Bikini Tall class of 13 stunning ladies, her body coming in tighter than she had at the RC Fitness Model Search and standing out in her Neon Bikini with her confident posing.

Claudia looked radiant in her class of 8 Bikini Short beauties, her infectious smile and confident posing standing out. Unfortunately Claudia narrowly missed out on a placing, but Physical Edge was proud of Claudia’s transformation and for achieving her goal.

 

 

In an exciting step up, Physical Edge Shape competitor Caroline Cloete competed at this show also but for the first time in the Figure class. This particular Figure class requires a fuller, smoother Figure than the NABBA Figure class and it suited Caroline perfectly. Caroline placed 3^rd out of 4 ladies presenting a beautiful, full figure and she had the best posing in the line up. A placing very well deserved.

Two weeks later in August Jo competed in the NABBA-WFF Pan Pacific Champs in Auckland.  Jo was Physical Edge Shape girl, Stacey Housely, made her come back (after placing 2^nd at the 2011 NABBA North Harbour Champs in the Shape Class) but this time she competed in the Sports Model Class. This class differs from the Bikini class in that it has three rounds, a bikini round, a sports wear round and an evening dress round. Stacey’s tight figure, confident package and rehearsed posing saw her placing second out of 6 confident ladies. A huge achievement for Stacey following a total of 27kg weight loss!

Jo competed for the first time in a new category, the Ms Athletic class, a class that required her to present a very lean, hard and tight figure of less than 50kg. Jo was the only contestant in her height division but in the Overalls she competed in a line up of three and Jo took out the Pan Pacific Ms WFF title to add to her already numerous titles.

With that the Physical Edge Figure, Shape and Bikini Team then started to prepare for the three back to back NZ Nationals with their respective federations.

Alexandra placed 3^rd out of a NZ National level NZIFBB Bikini Tall Class, and it was a battle as each and every girl on that stage had a Bikini body to die for. This finished off a very successful season for Alex!

Next lot of nationals for the team was the NABBA-WFF NZ Nationals which saw both Jo and Stacey step back onstage again.

Stacey this time did not place in the Sports Model Class however presented her leanest figure to date and this in itself was a huge win for Stacey.

Jo took out the Ms WFF NZ National title, presenting her hardest, leanest figure yet. The second Ms New Zealand title to Jo’s name!

 

At the 2012 NABBA Nationals Alyssa Christie (Physical Edge’s Novice Figure Tall Auckland 2011 Champion) won her first National Title, presenting a Figure package that had it all: Good muscle mass, separation and balance and along with her top notch posing Alyssa took out the Novice Figure Tall NABBA National Title beating two ladies that had previously beaten her at the beginning of the season! A momentous occasion for both Alyssa and Jo.

Stacey Housely stepped back into her Shape shoes at the NABBA NZ Nationals. Stacey looked confident and beautifully presented in the huge National level Shape class but unfortunately did not place. However this helped her set her 2013 goals and she embarked on the off season aiming to step onstage again in 2013 in the Figure Class!

Jo won her International Figure Class at the NABBA NZ Nationals when back on stage with fellow International Figure champion Janine Haywood. Then in the Overalls she continued on her annihilation of NZ Figure and won her third Ms New Zealand title, NABBA 2012 Ms NZ Figure! Beating six other hard, muscular and beautifully conditioned Figure athletes.

Last comp of the year for the team was the NABBA North Harbour champs. Physical Edge had Hayley Jones competing in the Shape class and Alyssa Christie competing for the first time in the Open Figure class after her 2012 Novice Figure Tall national title at the NABBA Nationals. Hayley competed in a huge Shape class and was radiant in the line up but unfortunately did not place, however two shape girls that Jo had taught to pose placed 1st and 3^rd. in the Open Figure class Alyssa placed third and we were absolutely delighted as this is a fantastic achievement when entering the Open for the first time.
