Weekly update : )

Another week has gone by ever so quickly and who said comp prep drags LOL!! Food still going strong numbers still nice and high so no reason to complain, Training hard, intense and loving it, Cardio hmm getting it done hehe think its time for some new shoes! So thing are on track even though deep down you wish the results were more visible... patience is the key here : )

Had my "free/cheat" meal on the weekend its funny i spend all week thinking bout what I'm going to have and this weeks was A roast dinner with vegies, a few cookies and some mud cake which i must say the mud cake was a bit of a let down but not to worry at the end of the day there is plenty more where they came from and there will always be mud cake (unfortunatly) hehe!

Had an interesting Upper body session yesterday mixed up what i was doing and tried for a pb on Bench. Now I'm pretty stubborn when it comes to someone spotting me and also particularly when choosing who i want LOL not the best quality to have when in the end my ego gets the better of me choose no one and get stuck under the bar and i'm to stubborn to call out for help lol so in the end i had to roll the bloody bar off me like nothing happened, pretty sure i pulled the skin off my muscles ( not really just being a drama queen) but i still got 2 out So new PB on Bench Woohoo! 55kg x 2 reps LOL!!!

Leg session today no squats but heading to the Leg press to be- friend this apparatus : ) Its been a lil while since we have had a head locking bout hehe!

Another thing I'm looking forward to is this weekend heading to the INBA Brisbane show nothing like a bit of motivation to keep the drive strong, get to see some awesome chicks strut there stuff on stage and catch up with some other friends : )

Time to scoot, i hope everyone has a FAB day : )

It all starts in your head!!!

Headspace is everything when prepping for a comp and at the moment i feel in a pretty good headspace : )

I took progress pics my first batch for 2010 and WOW exactly what i was expecting.... nothing like a good reality check to get the motivation rolling hehe I am doing my best to be positive about them and keeping in the back of my mind next time i take them i will be in a better place/position : ) there was a bit of dwelling after i first looked at them but i want to say thanks to all out there that gave me a boot up the bum and were extremely supportive about the whole situation : )

19 weeks out and have a couple of Bikinis in mind that i need to narrow down to one for the lovely Jo to create, have a HUGE list of songs that i need to get a second opinion about for my ANB routine this year something i cant wait to do, most people i talk to hate the idea about doing a routine but to be honest its another aspect about competing i like i think song selection can be something that helps show you who you are, the colour bikini you choose, makeup etc the package you present on stage represents YOU : ) See my mind is going crazy I'm so excited.

I had another awesome day yesterday with Training hit another PB on Lat pulldown 67.5kg hardest bit was trying to sit on the seat and saddle in LOL. Loving training and my program thanks Mick. Cardio yesterday was two classes i taught Step and Jam, Step was hard always is first thing on a monday morning not to mention sucks when you forget your joggers ahhh just testing myself i think hehe taught it in my sketchers... Will NEVER forget my shoes again LOL but still smashed out another session and sweated my ass off, Jam was fun had another instructor up shadowing me she always makes it so much fun thanks Alissa.

Today is Lowerbody power going to stick to last weeks squat weight (100kg) but aimimg to hit out another rep or 2 : ) Cardio is another step class :)

Food has been really good WARNING stay clear of the sugar free lollies (if you know what i mean) You will not make friends with those lil buggers around hehe!!!

Scales.... well looks like we have kissed and made up our relationship in one week is going strong we are both on the right page at the moment but at the end of the day i know how easy this friend of mine like the good ol mind games so im keeping that in the back of my mind and just putting n a happy front/face.

Best be off and use my time wisely Im a shocker when it comes to time management LOL

Let the games begin!

I'm super pumped at how fast the time has gone lets hope prep feels the same way hehe! 2010 comp prep has started as of yesterday, MOJO MAGIC is already taking place 1) being i got some exciting news involving Oxygen Magazine 2) Day one of comp prep i smashed out 2 PB's one on Incline db press 20kg x 4 and the other on lat pull down 65kg x 3 small numbers i know but I'm getting stronger woohoo!

I went to FILEX on Saturday it was great met some amazing people in the industry, helped fire up the mojo for the journey ahead!!

I'm ready to put in the hard yards for my new journey to the stage to begin!

WITH OR WITHOUT MY MOJO... THE TIME IS NOW : )

7 more days.....

OMG its almost here 7 months have past since my very 1st Comp and this time next week comp prep all starts again Woohoo!!! Im super excited last few weeks i have been a little complacent with my nutrition knowing this was about to begin ( no reason i know) But I'm ready to tackle this new journey knowing I'm going to experience new things and some of the old!!! One thing i wanted to achieve after comp last year was a balanced nutrition and some healthy habits, its funny how easy it is to full back on the bumpy road you have been down before and as an end result a body composition I'm not so crash hot on : ( This time round i feel its going to be different i know what to expect etc and I'm hoping that no MAJOR rebound will occur!!! Only i can control this and I'm going to this time round : ) I'm hoping over the last 7 months i have put on a lil more muscle as my training has been quite strong and satisfying i can almost say my training style has matured hehe! Only time will tell : )

2010....THE TIME IS NOW :)

Words....

Its funny over the past few months ive realised that how important wording things is, I have found myself seeming to be overwhelmed in words people have discribed me as eg Brut, built like a brick shit house, and the list goes on...... (maybe for some reason im taking this to heart or im SUPER sensitive) but not only that but how lil decorum people really have in regards to others feelings, i have never walked up to one and poked them in the belly to tell them they have put on weight, ive never told someone they have beefed up, i have never advised someone that maybe getting a mirror to see what they look like from behind may help stay in "comp condition" all year round. Where do we get off on telling others our opinions that are rather hurtful??? I'd never lie to anyone who asked me to be honest with them with their appearence ONLY if they ask for it!!!! I'ts funny how a handful of humans can make or break your day : ( and i'm bringing this up due to being hurt by words someone close to me made ( and at the end of the day what this person said was probably not meant in the way that it all came out and across) i just wish people really thought about what they are going to say to one and put yourself in their positon and see if you would like it in return!!!
Wednesdays are always the day i have something thrown at me so i'm doing my best to mentally prepare for the next daggering comment coming my way!!!

Sticks and stones may break my bones but im going to use these comments in my training and prove to them and myself that its only fueling the energy for me to succeed....BOOYA!

1.5 Weeks and comp prep begins :)

2 1/2 WEEKS

AND THE GAMES BEGIN...........
