Where I've Been
Posted in Other : Apr 02, 2012 12:00pmI haven't been online much in the last 6 months. Alot was going on with my family and I wanted to make sure I was spending my time in the most important places. All is copacetic now so I hope to be on more often. It's motivating to keep in touch with other fitness folks and although I am uber motivated at the moment, it doesn't always last.
I have debated whether or not I will admit this and if I should even go into detail and in the end I decided who cares if people know. I am not ashamed.
I had a tummy tuck with muscle repair on January 6, 2...

How I diet during contest prep
Posted in Nutrition : Apr 29, 2011 9:39amI must be in the mood to write (which isn't normal) and I have had a few people ask me about diet & leaning out. I'm not an expert by any means but I am an expert on how my body responds to food.
First, I have dietary restrictions due to a stomach disorder and I can't eat most green veggies (broccoli is a big time no no), no beans, and anything that is super high in fiber.
Now that that is out of the way, my contest prep diet is pretty B-O-R-I-N-G. I retain water from grains so unless I am having a high carb day, the only grains I eat are oats
...Back WO 4/28
Posted in Training : Apr 29, 2011 8:03amSuperset:
a. Pull ups (all the way down, all the way up - no cheating here) b. Inverted rows (my LEAST fave exercise of all time)
a. Narrow grip pull downs b. Single arm bent over rows
No more superset:
Reverse db flies Straight arm pulldowns Face pulls

Hi there. Wow great contest pictures... you got so lean. Thanks for the friendship request. I'm contemplating a figure comp this summer but also am planning a marathon in the fall...hard to balance both :) Have a super weekend. Any new comps for you this year?
