When I Started:
Apr, 2008
How I Started:
I realized I was gaining weight to quickly this year. None of my clothes fit and the weight was all fat cause I was not working out at the time.
Why I Love It:
I have worked out on and off since I was a chubby little girl. I have always know that there is no "secret" to keeping a fit, lean body. It has always been the same, since the Greeks invented strength training, "eat right, exercise more".
This is what I know and love. This is what I believe could change so many lives. Exercise feels good, I feel high afterwards.
How I Stay Motivated:
It hasn't been that hard to stay motivated, not wanting to be chubby is enough for me.
Wearing midriff revealing workout clothes and short shorts, help to remind me of how much more work I have to go, when I look in the mirror. I want to someday be wearing them and have someone ask me about how I am doing "it".
BB Accomplishments:
Working out every scheduled day since April 16th, 2008.

Q. How do you know if you are working hard enough?
A. Try to kill yourself and if you not dead yet, try harder!

My butt is still a to saggy and has no muscle and I need to focus on my v-taper, as I have none.

Not only met my goal of 14%, but beat it at 9%! Now it's time to get strong. Building up my back, shoulders, and calves.
I want be prepared for figure competition by Summer/Fall '09.
Goal (Long):
I want to compete in at least 3 contests next year. Maybe, I am jumping the gun a bit. Most people train for at least 2 years before competing. But I think I can do it if I train full-time(2+ daily hours, 5-6 days weekly).
***Big Goals***
Get down to 14% by Mid-September.(Done!, 9% hydrostatic weighing)
Gain 5-10lbs of Muscle by March, while maintaining 14-16% bodyfat.
Be 7-8% for competition in the by July.
**Thru December 1st**
Do weight training 3-4 days per week.
And do plyo/cross training, 2 days per week.
**Diet**
Metabolic Diet(5 days low-carb, 2 days moderate carb)
Wish me luck!
Description: Training with Bands and Kettleball outside. I do this on top of my weight training to get a combined cardio strength element.
Outdoor Training Video 2
Played: 70
Description: My Trainer, Jeff Bass, torturing me. Hey, he's just doing what I pay him to do! Squat Thrust with a 10lb medicine ball. After I thrust it I chase after it trying to catch after 2 bounces.
This drill is killer.
Hey ya'll, just thought I'd let you know that I am now posting videos of some of the things I am doing to get in shape. They are not really instructional, as much as documentation of this road the I am traveling on. Let me know your thoughts.

I think it's a great idea. My schedule is pretty crunched with school and work, but it would be great to have a group that could support each other through prep or just get together once in a while! I'm interested.
