SCRATCH North Americans

Sunday, July 26th, 2009

Hey peeps, can’t believe yesterday was 5 weeks out from North American. Although the progress is going well I’ve decided NOT to do NA. I know, I know!! I’m about as indecisive as they come!! I’m really training hard but I’m not feeling it…I’m not feeling it all. And w/ 35 years on this earth I’ve learned if I’m not feeling something is best not to do it! Been there done that..when I do do something I’m not feeling I always regret it after the fact!!! So, that leaves two National shows on the calendar and a few large regional shows attached to a PRO show. For now, all I’m going to say is that I’m training my azz off and you never know where I’ll show up, lol!! Just know that I’ll be on someone’s stage this year…just a matter of when!!

Here are my pics from last week when I was 6 weeks out, weighing 138….but now it’s just a progress pic!!! My monthly visitor came by so I didn’t feel like taking pics this week even though I can say the vascularity sure is popping now!! Weight was 138.4 yesterday. Would have been pissed, but under the circumstances won’t get too upset….but, I expect to see 135 next week.

Diet is pretty good. Making sure I don’t go below 1200 calories. I’ve also told myself no matter what I refuse to do more than 2-1hr cardio sessions a day…PERIOD. I’ve been averaging 3 days of 2-1hr. sessions, the rest of the week I’m just doing 1 hr. Which is another reason I’m not feeling NA. I’m just not willing to do 3-1hr. session every single day to get ready, which is what I would have to do….so will keep training for the next show!

USA was pretty interesting. Figure is figure…happy 2c Akane and Candice walk away w/ their PRO cards!!! I admire anyone who can do back to back shows and look on top of their game the way they did last season. Big Props to Kristal Marshall for winning the overall in Bikini!! I absolutely luv her look.

That’s about it for now!!! Hope everyone has a great week!

7 Weeks out!!!

Saturday, July 11th, 2009

Ya-hooooooooooooooooooooo!!! Ok, now I’m getting excited!! I’m glad the lack of confidence I’ve been experiencing lately is going away!! Hope it never comes back.

I took progress pics this morning…..there’s plenty of work left to do but I’m slowly tightening up. This is the first time since I set my mind to do North Americans that I’ve actually felt 100% that I can be ready…so 7 weeks is all I have left. My problem area continues to be the abs but I also noticed that I’m holding in the glute/ham which has never been a problem (serious crease)….never had the issue of a “ghetto booty”. So, I guess w/ age fat starts distributing differently.

Slowly checking things off the to do list in preps for this show. 1- Byron David suit which I purchased last year from Melody Clere….she won her Pro Card in it..so hopefully it’ll give me some good luck 2- plane ticket purchased 3- hotel room reserved 4- NPC Registration sent off 1st of the month…got the card yesterday..they work pretty fast. Now all I have to do is pay the entry fee. I was thinking of just doing one division but if I’m going to go I might as well do both Open & Masters….so more than likely I’ll be robbing Peter to pay Paul…but I plan to register for both. So, I’m already close to 2k which doesn’t include supps,training fees, or posing.

Did I say I was excited?? Well, I’m really excited!!!! Can’t wait 2meet every1 at NAs!!!!!

Have a great weekend!!!
