Hi & Welcome…
Hi there! Thanks for stopping by my BodyBlog. I am using this blog as a means of accountablity to myself, for motivation, and as a great way to track my work outs, nutrition, and supplement regimins. I am in the process of transferring a lot of older work outs, working on adjusting the dates to coincide with the work outs. I am also working on uploading some newer pics, and getting down some sort of schedule for posting progress pics in my blog.
Currently I am on a major cutting plan, with my BF% jumping back up to the 16% range after my competition, I am now cutting down with an ultimate goal of 9% bodyfat when I step on stage in the spring of 2007. My first tentative show is March 10th or March 31st– I haven’t officially decided as of yet.
In addition to training for comp., I am also in charge of a marathon training group at work (I’m a trainer and group ex instructor at a large, multi-branch national fitness/wellness center in Denver). We are training to run a 1/2 marathon (13.1 miles) in the last week of April 2007.
My current nutrition is based on a low carb/high protein/higher fat split, and I have a refeed every third day– and with the running, is challenging. My refeeds are set up to coincide with my longer runs. Every Sunday is long-run day (5+ miles currently)– so my refeed is the evening before this run.
Some of my goals for this competition season are to lean out my legs, get rid of some of the muscle mass, so it is more symetrical w/ my upper body. So my days of 165 lb squats are gone..sadly 
I am now on a super-high repetition scheme for legs; with the exception of hams..I am allowed to use weight when working hammys. Since running is weight bearing, and my legs feel very heavy, not trained for endurance at all- we are trying to tighten them up, lean them out; whilst still letting them be able to run endurance for me.
So…. thanks for reading and following, and please feel free to comment or give tips or ask questions! Peace~J
