YOur goal for a year out is great. First you need to pick a date, look at fitnessteambc.com and click into the Fitness section then check out some show dates from the links below, also
www.naturalbodybuilding.com for the ms.fitness shows.
You do need to have some type of plan progressing you to the show as for diet and training but I would be happy to help and also if you like data you can look into my fitness manual also at the team bc site.....it covers it all with off season ideas for training with sample and 16 weeks of sample diet and training, plus every other detail you can think of from planning at a year out......
Anyhow, you can post any question here and I am happy to help.
First thing is a show date, then I need to know what your present level is fitness wise to know what you need work on. Brush up on some skills, what can you do gymnastics wise? Get your splits fresh and extend them all, work on pike and straddle holds, push ups etc.
Pick some music and a routine theme, plan out costume and suit ideas by jotting them down, sketches or whatever. The team bc site also has links to resources!
