Personally I'm very new to body building(I started lifting in November 2007, and i was very skrawny/skinny before that)
As I mentioned in the title, this isn't a regular bodybuilding competition.

The contest I plan on competing in is in november/december(i don't remember exactly). Its at my university, its like miss america lol but for men, its hosted by a sorority thats why. Its called Mr. ONU. There's about ~5 categories that it is made up of: swim wear(kinda like your regular body building comptetion), talent show, basic info about yourself, and 1 question.

I compteted last year and was runner up. I'm looking for any suggestions on talents. last year my talent was doing hand stand(vertical pushups) with a female assistant holding my ankles(im not very balanced lol).

Last year i weighed ~150-155 lb, and max benched 175 lb. Now I weigh ~147-148 lb and max bench 205-210 lb(and as mentioned before, the cotest isnt until november or december).

any suggestions would be great such as doing regular pushups with a girl on my back lol( i tried to last year, but could only do ~3, ill probably try again.)

Not being rude or anything but at your strength level I dont think that would be a great thing to show as your talent.
You cant juggle,sing or dance lol.I once walked 9 blocks on y hands lol.Performed a dance routine with a beautiful girl I was on my hands the whole time.She was on her feet haha.This was a talent show back in high school

i can barely walk on my hands 2 feet let alone 9 blocks, impressive.

actually last year i did juggling followed by vertical pushups, i had a female assistant hold my ankles since i cant balance that well lol.

I don't mean to brag or sound arrogant but i was probably the strongest guy in the competition last year, and probably in the best shape besides 1 guy who did track or cross country or something like that, but he looked liked he just walked out of a concentration camp

to give a better perspective of my size, im only 5ft 6in, maybe 7inches. and im "top heavy" lol. its embarrassing but my arms have a larger circumference then my calves

you might consider some 1 arm push ups, rocky style. alternating arms. also, if the judges are chicks, read some poetry, young ladys dig that stuff.

Chin ups, dips and shoulder handstand presses as well as push ups, but you know what tha main things are: Posture, smile and be confident and most of all enjoy it
