THOUGHTS OF A FITNESS FREAK

I wore a fitness outfit I had for some gym shots.  Its just shorts and a matching halter top……….kind of like the models in Oxygen and M&F.  I also wore gym gloves and sneakers.  It was awesome because women asked to take pictures with me.  In my book, thats a total success.  I had people asking where I workout, promising to come to the gym and check it out…one guy even asked me how to build better lats.  I played pool……….ya..I suck a little, but a few shots of Jagermeister really improves my game I gotta admit.  Oh, I also did my hair up and had rhinestone jewelry on as I was muscle Barbie afterall………or fitness Barbie, minus the blank stare and the 15 inch waist of course.  Its funny to try to get the point across that I am a "bodybuilder" yet a little person and I am feminine as well………I really don’t think people understand that you can be both.  There is obviously a stereotype.  I am not a competitive bodybuilder though..but I do train and I do……um……build muscles and my body.  Perhaps bodybuilding someday, but right now I still am having a love/hate relationship with figure.  My biggest issue with competing in bodybuilding is a good routine.  I would want to do something WOW for it.  I want it choreographed to be graceful and beautiful and badass all rolled into one.  Know what I mean? So instead of someone going "eww gross" maybe they would see some beauty in the strong female form.

I did legs today.  After some hack press with 10   45’s my knee got all funky.  I couldnt do any squats at all.  Perhaps its the weather?  I did some leg press 505lbs, leg extensions 80 lbs, seated curls 80lbs and laying curls 90 lbs.  I did calves.seated at 135 I think……….cant remember if I had another 25 on the other side.  After the whole knee thing……I was a little bummed so I went home.  It is what it is and I know better than to push it.  Im going to do them again on thursday.  Tomorrow I am thinking chest and tris. Im not really sure right now. Im actually due for some forearms, which I do like to train, but they are so limited in exercises and a little boring I suppose.  I have to work off the candy I ate.and the double cheeseburgers that are necessary after going out on the town…..shhhhhhhhhh…dont tell.

Later peeps
