Prejudging at 2015 NPC Junior Nationals, Julia stands in the center of second call-outs in a class of 14 physique competitors.

In a show prep advised by pro bodybuilder, Amit Sapir, Julia says, "I feel great. Second call outs was not what I wanted, but we brought a much better package than last year. I couldn't be more happy about that!"

Competing at this show for the third year, Julia finds it hard to say what the judges are looking for. "In my mind, the physique division has changed over the past few years. The girls in first call-outs were much bigger overall...almost like a bodybuilding."
