Training Hard Seven Days A Week.
So my training partner and I get comments in the gym all the time from people saying they have never seen girls workout as hard as we do. Then we get the comments from people that say we workout too much. So how much is too and much and who are they to say what OUR bodies respond too? Why is it that some people feel they have to rain on your parade. Not that I care what other people think but when people make comments I do kind of start to wonder if I am obsessive and excessive with my training. On the other hand, I compete because I am competitive (mostly with myself) and am trying to get my body in better shape than it was the last comp. That requires a lot of dedication and A LOT of time in the gym. To get lean, diet is 90% but I also need to do about an hour of cardio in the AM and again at night. Train hard to get hard I guess 
Gaspari stack is going great. Holding to a lot more muscle this go round with the leaning up. 5 weeks to go!

I think your body will tell you how much is too much. Last week with Red Rocks I trained all 7 days, and don’t plan on doing any less for 5 more weeks! Those that say it’s too much say that because a) it’s too much for their bodies, or b) they’re just not motivated enough to compete and are jealous of the competition physiques! Keep it up, girlie! You and I train with the best so as long as it’s working, it can’t be bad

**** what other people say. Train the way it works for you (it clearly is).
When their 60 they’ll be stuck on the couch or going for grandma walks and you will still be kickin it with the 20 year olds.
If I start feeling overly tired or dreading training for a few sessions I know I’m doing too much and step it back a week or 2 and then mix it up with something new.
Keep it up!
