My Update - Been a while!

Hey everyone (if anyone's still reading this!), hope you are all doing well. I am doing fine. I've been pretty busy lately, although none of it has been fitness related (if you can believe it, since I've lived and breathed fitness for the past 6 years.).

First, I started a new job. Some of you may know I'm a government contractor in Information Technology. Well, my old contract ended Sep. 30 and I was left jobless. Luckily, my old boss forwarded my resume to the CEO of a new company, and I was a direct referral. I interviewed and got the job with the National Guard Bureau, the organization that combines the Air and Army Guard into one entity. Anyway, I work in the Joint Operations Center, which all the state Guard entities report up to for all their operations. My team at KSI is responsible for developing the web application interface that the entire National Guard uses to communicate - track their status, supplies and missions. I am a tech support for the users and am also responsible for web content, training documentation and online help. I just started my 4th week working at NGB and I LOVE it.

In the meantime, I am working on my education as well. I am going back to school in January to finish my B.S. in Business with a specialization in Mgmt. Information Systems. Right now, I am working on several IT certifications, including my Network+ and my MCSA.

Fitness-wise, I am still recovering from my torn hamstring that I incurred in mid-June, 3 weeks before Team Universe. I haven't been able to train legs 100% since the injury, and have had to cut my training volume back to about 25% of what I had been doing - it was hard, but I now know it is the best thing for me in order to recover the fastest and fullest. I am just getting over a cold, but now that my job is on a set schedule, I will be training in the mornings, before work, and will lift 3 days a week and try to get some sort of cardio in - such as a morning walk/jog - twice per week.

My competition plans, although very loose right now, are to be at Nationals in Dallas next November. This will depend on many factors, two of the most important being 1) a full recovery of my hamstring and 2) a vast improvement in my fitness routine skills, which I hope will come in the form of gymnastics (I plan to take lessons once I am healed).

So, I haven't dropped of the face of the Earth, and I haven't "quit" competing, I'm just taking a short break to rest, re-focus, and come back with a better attitude (and a better routine!).

Thanks everyone, love you all!

xoxo

Phase 2, Week 2
Day 1 – Back, Shoulders


Last week ended with a killer leg workout! Strength is not fully up yet, but the hamstring is noticeably improving (albeit very slowly). Calves are still sore from Friday, so I’m bumping them back to tomorrow.

I’m tightening the diet back up this week… weight gain was pretty controlled over the past 5 weeks of my off-season, but it’s creeping up a little too high for comfort right now, lol. I may count macros/calories, but for now it’s just 1-2 less meals, smaller portions, and limited complex carbs. Cheats will be kept out until the weekend.

0845: Kashi Go Lean Nut Roll (5g fat, 28g carbs (6g fiber), 12g protein)

August Update

I haven't been on in a while. I've been spending some quality time with my husband, family and friends, and just enjoying the rest of the summer! I have been consistent with my workouts, but I am balancing everything and focusing more on my relationships right now. Eating is always nice, too! :)

It's been over a month since the Team Universe. I've learned a lot, changed a lot and ate a lot! Seriously, my body and mind are very much rested and my injury is slowly recovering. In fact, the main focus of my training right now is to slowly rehabilitate my torn hamstring so that it doesn't get any worse. The last month of training was a sort of detraining period, where I went down in volume and also focused on treatment of my injury. I would say my hamstring is about 20% improved. The range of motion is slowly coming back, but it still takes a good 20-minute warm-up to get there. Patience is definitely a vital part of this process!

The areas I am looking to improve for my next show are my routine – it needs increased difficulty – and to add some size to my calves, and to just continue training my physique the way I have been… which is prioritizing my back, shoulders and quads. I would like to increase my flexibility, which was at its best ever prior to my injury, and increase my abdominal strength to be able to perform more difficult presses and planches. I am also seriously looking into taking gymnastics classes, but that will have to wait until the injury heals.

So for now, my main focus is on weight training, to maintain the strength and size I have, and using cardio, stretching and other techniques to maintain an off-season weight and to rehab my injury. I haven’t done any routine training since the show. This week, I actually start my new training split. Here is the layout for the new split:

Mon – Back & Shoulders
Tue – Cardio & Rehab; Calves & Abs
Wed – Kettlebell Strength Training
Thu – Cardio & Rehab; Calves & Abs
Fri – Legs

My Tue & Thu workouts are my flexible days, so they can be added in to another day if I can’t make it in due to a work conflict or similar appointment.

Aside from training and eating, the rest of my life is filled with my IT system administration job, which is a contract position to expire Sep 30, so I am again in job search mode. I am looking to switch from DMS (messaging administration) to a technical writer, which is much more fitting for me and conducive to two of my loves in life – information technology and writing!

I am still staying active in the industry by doing demos and tours for my sponsor, MHP, and hope to be a part of the athlete team repping at the Olympia and the Arnold, if my schedule allows. I will be attending all the local shows and either offering my services backstage or judging the events. I will also be scheduling some photo shoots and guest performances towards the end of the year, so keep an eye on my website schedule for updates.

End of Week Check-In

1 Week of prep down for Team U, 3 weeks to go. My new goals for this show will push my limits in all aspects - physically, mentally, and emotionally - but I can't do anything less than 110% without feeling completely satisfied when I'm standing on stage in NY on July 14.

*Updated Sun, June 25*
Weight Today: 137.4 lbs.
Loss this Week: .6 lbs.
New Goal Weight: 134.0 (by July 6)
Weeks to Goal Weight: 2
Weekly Loss Goal: 1.7 lbs.
Next Week's Goal Weight: 135.7 lbs.

I know it's a high number to lose in 1 week, especially while already being very lean, but I have to try and tighten up my glutes & hamstrings as much as possible.

As for diet, my overall calories have slightly decreased - basically, not as high on my carb up days, and some slightly lower protein days. Combined with an increase in training (number of routine practices, plus cardio) it should give me a big enough deficit to continue dropping bodyfat.

Once I talk to my nutritionist, we will finalize my diet numbers for the coming weeks so that I can tighten up and present a crisper physique at Team.

Here are a few pics from Jr Nationals weekend... I did a photoshoot with Gene X Hwang (FTVideo) . The other photos are from JC Lopez' site, HardFitness.

Training Changes

As part of my prep towards my win at Team Universe next month, I am revamping my training program to address my physique and routine goals.

Physique/Weight Training
-Decrease volume, Increase intensity, Replace more compound with isolation movements
-Add in HIIT 3x per week

Fitness Routine
I will be working with Lisa Reed-Musheno twice a week from now until the last few days before I leave for NY. She will also give me drills to perform to enhance the areas of my routine that need extra work. I am very excited to be working with Lisa - she is very talented and always had great routines in her IFBB days!
-Train routine 3x full practice, 2-3x str/flx practice (plus drills/suggestions from Lisa)

Yay, everything is coming together! I am right now in the best condition I've been for a show in several years, if ever! And still weighing in over 140 for me is awesome! I may take my goal weight lower than 139, but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. For now, I am tracking perfectly to nail my goal and have a little bit of a rest/food increase to fill back out before Juniors. I'm VERY excited about this show... regardless of how the placements land, I know I'm at my all-time BEST!!!

Starting my new full-time IT job this week threw my schedule off a bit, but I pre-planned accordingly to prioritize my workouts and get quality over quantity. It worked! I am more rested, my recovery is better, and my workouts (particularly routine practices) are far more effective now. Plus, I love my new job!!! :) God has blessed me tremendously and I am very grateful.

Friday - LEGS!

Off from routine practice today, my body got a nice and needed break from all the high-impact joint-jarring moves on the hardwood floor. In addition, I went to my massage therapist for a nice hour-long deep tissue. Felt very relaxed and rejuvenated, which resulted in a great leg workout!

Weeks Complete: Diet-7; Training-11
Starting Weight: 152.0 lbs.
Today's Weight: 145.4 lbs.
Total Loss This Week: 2.9 lbs.

Things are kicked into high gear and it's crunch time! I am on lock-down for the month of May, and I have 5 weeks left to get into the best condition of my life! I know I can easily match my previous condition, but to place top 3 in a field of about 30 girls, I will have to beat my own personal best. I've already put on about 4 lbs. of muscle during my December-February off-season, so that was very successful. Now, to just stay on track and bring my body in exactly where I want it to be. My goal is to be a little tighter than I was for Nationals last year, particularly in my hamstrings and lower abs, and to get more quad separation as well. I am tracking perfectly towards my goal, so it's just a matter of time and patience, as well as sticking to my diet and training my tail off! :)

Friday's Diet & Check-In

Weight today: 145.4 (3 lb. loss since 1 week ago!)

My bodyfat is falling off on Dr. Joe's new plan for me! The cool thing is, with all the carb and calorie cycling, it's something I'm able to maintain without feeling over-deprived. One more day and I can carb up tomorrow.

Monday's Diet - Fresh Start

Today is my first day working back with my nutritionist, Dr. Joe Klemczewski http://www.thedietdoc.com He has an awesome new carb and cal-cycling plan to get me shredded and get that Pro card!

(Just a side note on my diet... many beginners into the fitness scene look at other competitors' diets to copy what they are doing. The nutrition aspect of this sport is so individually specified, that it is impossible to copy another person's diet and look like they do. It is best to hire an expert in the field who can get to know your body and help YOU learn your own body better, as well as general human physiology, so that you can take that knowledge and experience and implement it yourself and become a nutritional expert to your own body!)

0620: 1/4c oats, 1/2c cottage cheese, 2 oz. soy milk

Friday's Diet

Ah... Friday is my sleep-in day, meaning I am not awake as long during the day, meaning my meals can be placed closer together and can be slightly higher in calories - yay!

0715: 1/3c oats, 25g MHP Probolic-SR (185)

Week 1, Day 3 - Delts & Tris

Didn't get to train calves today since my workout ran longer than planned and I had a client immediately after. Will do calves Friday instead.

AM: Routine practice - 1 hour - Conditioning/Endurance

PM: Shoulders & Triceps - Today's weight workout really emphasized to me the difference between sheer volume training and volume/intensity training. By pairing 2-3 muscle groups together, I have to train quicker and more efficently, keeping my rest under 1 minute, resulting in a higher intensity workout, but also compromising the amount of weight I can lift. My routine practices also hinder my strength a bit due to the additional work it gives my upper body.

Week 1, Day 1 - Back/Bis/Calves

This week I started a new training phase. I just finished an 8-week volume phase and took a backoff week last week to rest up a bit before charging into the final months of my contest prep. This week's schedule was screwy due to flying back from Seattle and not being able to train Monday, but next week I'll be back to normal.

The new split is 4 days of lifting (last cycle was 5) with no chest work except for routine strength work, and minimized arm work as well. I will do 2 conditioning routine practices and 2 strength routine practices each week, and run once on the weekend. Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday are off from weights entirely.
