A Peek into the Mind of GeminiJedi

Yesterday was 13 weeks out.  I’m seeing progress, and feel that I’m starting off prep season (aka 12 weeks out) much better prepared than last year.  Granted, I’ve been "dieting" for a few weeks now, I have a lot more guidance this time around (from actually having hired a trainer this year), a lot more friends in the same boat as me…it’s going to be great.  I just need to stay on myself to get ‘er done!

Last week I was TIRED all week..going to blame the snow.  It’s sunny today and supposed to be BEAUTIFUL this week.  I’m feeling better today, going to cook more for the week today, too.  Started off the morning well–now to keep this momentum up for the next 13 weeks   I will do it.

I was reminded about a week ago that it’s April.  Yes, that means it’s my month!  If you bought the 2009 calender from Controlled Labs (available here) I can be hanging on your wall, greeting you each morning   If you haven’t bought one yet–it’s not too late!  Get clicking!!  lol

Happy Easter to everyone!  I hope the Easter Bunny brough you lots of yummy, healthy treats!

Hey all!  I know it’s been a long while–man life gets busy with work, school, and a show in 13 weeks!  Lifts have been going well.  I have a LOT of work to do yet, but I have time and LOTS of local support and an entirely different mindset than last year so I know I will come in with better conditioning–can’t wait!  Who knows about placing…Yes, I’d love to get top 5, but who knows.  That can’t be controlled.  The only thing I have control of is how I lift, making my cardio, and what I put in my mouth.  Doing everything my trainer says will get me in the best condition I’ve ever been in, and  THAT is what I’m looking forward to the most   Then I have my work cut out for me this "off season" (bulking season?  I’m not sure what to call it, since "off season" makes me think of doing nothing, and that’s NOT what I want to do) because I wasn’t going to compete next year and just focus on putting on size, but there are rumors of a pro/am in Denver next year…I’d like to compete in a bigger show on my home turf, but I also want to be competitive, so who knows.  Right now I have July to worry about, then bust my butt after that, and see what happens, I guess.

Happy Easter to you all!  I hope you all have a great one!
