Thank god it's Friday...

Something about friday always brings out the giggles in me. This Friday is a little more somber i am feeling as we are all heading out to the Legion for a fund raiser for the McKeown Family. I am happy to hear so many from Bodilogix will be there supporting the event and it is always a fun time when the gang is altogether. I will have to forgo any wobbly pops or the like as all alcoholic beverages have left my life strictly after returning from vacation.

This mornings cardio was yanked off the table do to a slow start this morning and super tight legs, i will put in 1 hour of Cardio today where and when in the schedule I am not certain as of yet but I have biceps/triceps on tap with the lovely Miss Cindy and will throw the cardio in their somewhere.

Ideally
3:15-4:00pm 45 minutes of cardio
5:15- 6:30pm weights
6:30-7:00pm additional cardio

Not necessarily "ideal" but ideal considering the busy day with my clients ahead of me... Hopefully there aren/t too many on leg day my gams aching big time and it's only going to get worse...

6:00 yogurt
half cup oatmeal
tea

9:00 Protein shake (banana joe)

11:30 chopped veggies

2:00 salad and chicken

5:00 shake

800 shake

Day78...but whose counting...

Holy moly, only 78 more crazy days til Pizza...

Program today..

Afternoon 30 minute cardio (Eliptical)
Scorching Leg workout with training Partner extraordinaire Miss Cindy...set a personal deadlifing record !!!
Late night Cardio 30 minutes...

Interesting... Thing is as I prepare for my own show, everyone whom I train, all of their programs and performances in the gym go up a notch.

I might feel a little bad for my clients today they all worked really really hard. My prediction... They are all going to be working really really really hard this fall here at the Bodilogix !!!!

The eating is just tough my appetite is so over the top right now and my body is craving a strength cycle not a "cutting" cycle. It will get easier.

Tomorrow is another day starting with 45 minute 6:00am cardio planned, See you all in the morning gang!

Nighty night !

Early to bed and early to rise...

Early to bed is really just a fantasy in my life although last night I gave it my best attempt... I was up every 90 minutes going to the washroom, this is good news...
The last time I prepped for a show I was up half the night having a pee and I swear to god I just kept waking up with a "changed" body. Last night was the first crazy night of washroom visitations therefore although a disrupted sleep to be sure (4 visits in total through the night) I see this as an encouraging sign that my body is responding as I wish it to regarding the changes in activity and diet I have already made.

It is now 6:20 am and I am about to begin my first Cardio.
Downed my first bottle of water, 3 Mitotropin, 2 anavite (vitamins) extra "C" 500mg followed by and 2 baby yogurts...good to go!
30 minutes...see you on the other side.

Done and on with the day... next stop 4:00pm shoulder workout...

Onward to Vegas baby .....

I was asked by the lovely and talented Miss Wendy how she could support me through the upcoming 80 days on my quest to win the Fame Natural World bodybuilding championship to be held in Las Vegas November 11. Good question, I need all the support and encouragement a gal can muster as this is for anyone in or not in the know a tough trick to do!!!

The attention to training is gruelling.. the amount of Cardio obscene... and the strict diet... don't even go there sister is just gets ridiculous... I remember sipping a Cinnamon apple tea last go around as I prepared for the eastern championships held right here in Cobourg and I decided I should NOT drink the tea because despite the lack of evidence the taste was telling of perhaps a questionable ingredient that could very well side track my chances in a win and the physical "show ready" perfection I was in search of. Quite frankly the darn stuff tasted too dam good !!!!In hind sight I should have just drank the tea and enjoyed its robust flavour... oh the mind... tricky stuff.

Anyway it was decided that this time around while I prep I should continue to write a Blog and report to all of you what I am up to.The idea is that this seemed the best way to attract support from readers like yourself... I very much would appreciate your comments, questions and feedback if it is of a positive nature and I will do my best to devulge in the most honest light what the experience is like to prepare one self for the challenge of performing on stage as I bid to capture my first World title on my road to Professional status.

I have no secrets, I have no magic, just me, my knowledge and "Will" to achieve the following mandate..

I know from my past experience where I need to take my physique to be worthy of the stage and performance I will be displaying to capture the title so here are the particulars...

weight now : 132 pounds Goal weight: 114 pounds
bodyfat% 23% Bodyfat % 13%

days to goal : 80
Welcome to the ride people hang on it's going to be a bumpy one!!!!
