I should start off by saying most of my friends know I am a huge klutz.

So I was hired on to teach groupX at 24HR. My boss asked me to fill in for a Core Central class -remember I have not been trained yet! It involves 3 mins of step alternating with 3 mins weight training…  I am not trained in step.  I am one and a half minutes into my first 3 mins of class. I look back to chat with the girls and bang, I tripped off my step.  I was laughing so hard.  They were laughing so hard… Ugh. It is so like me to have something like that happen!!! Ha…

Okay, so I didn’t get to workout today… Bummed about it, but did teach my first PE Classes of the year.  They were sooo cute (I teach 3,4 & 5 yr olds). It was very humid-hot today though.  It will be great to watch these kids grow and mature this year.

I also met with a part-time future boss who is set on me teaching Group X classes for 24HR here in Austin.  One of the classes she wants me to teach is cycling…. Okay, so I am into mountain biking. But, really don’t do spin. BUt so many cyclers have huge quads, which I need to grow…
QUESTION: Will teaching the cycling help or hinder my growth of the quads??
Thanks for listening, thanks for the advice…

What are people using lately for energy/thermogenics and appetitie suppressants? I am looking for something new.  I don’t take them except when I am in competition prep.

Thanks,

Thanks guys for telling me I don’t need a partner. Instead of pitying myself at the gym for my leg workout, I just gave it my all. Tried a few things and I hope to heck that I am sore as all get -out tomorrow!!  Don’t you love it.  What a rush, a great workout can carry you thru til the next one.

Also, I am going to target the Labrada or Lackland here in TX -so I am aiming for NPC Nationals….You all are awesome with info, thoughts and support. Wish I had joined this site months ago!!

As I look through all these blogs, sites and see all you super-fit workout people, I am wondering if I really can make it in the NPC. It is a long road to get there. - to the top. And here I have earned a Pro card with the very small WNBF sanction.  The downfall is that if I go WNBF and I win or place then I can no longer compete in any other sanction. Obviously there is far more notarity in the NPC.  I don’t know what I want…. Ughh. ..

I am going into a building phase so this past week I have been trying different excercises and workout combinations… It’s funny cause the area I hit during a workout wasn’t as sore as another unsuspecting area. I have been really sore this week as a result.  I haven’t been sore like this in a long time.

I am a little frustrated as I am trying to find a workout partner to help push me that extra little bit to grow even more.
