Brickgirl got Whooped like a little dog :)

[BrickGirl]

Well that was a fun show Totally got whooped, I was a little too big for the other girls I believe, plus I didn't have rhinestones on every one of my eyelashes I came in the best shape of any contest and I hit my routine and I couldn't ask for better, so I am more than happy, the most fun for me is preparing for it, the actual show's in my opionion are a big downer, even the ones I won, I had much more fun doing leg presses till I puke Although, it was kinda sexy seeing a girl backstage doing leg press with stilleto heals on Everyone was extremly nice and we had a good time, This will be my last fitness show and I'm thinking of taking up alligator wrestling or something, Gonna keep improving on my body though and gonna take about 6 months off from "supplements" to let everything get back to normal probably do a power lifting meet next for fun, that way, I don't have to walk around in heels We took a few pics while at the motel room, and my husband was way too nervous to take any good ones, so if you want to look at some lousy pics, here they are

I would like to thank everyone on the board for all the help, simply amazing the advice people like wilson6 and just everyone can give you to make it all come together, the road there is by far a blast, that is the best part, so train your asses off, just because you might not be doing a contest, the training is the best!!!! Thanks again guys/girls

BG,

Did the water/sodium timing protocol work?

It worked perfect, i was just about to email you, I didn't have to worry about saturday night show, even though I went up on stage saturday night, I wasn't being judged, the dehydration thing was a little more important to me at that point, so i drank some and smoothed out but it was no big deal, but yes sir, thank you, it worked perfect

Yeah, thats the thing, I do this for complete fun, I won 2 shows and dangit it qualified me for a bigger show or I would have stopped there, so I felt the need to go ahead and do this one, the other girls, of course were very sweet, but dang, they take everything so serious, I'm not like that at all, when I didn't make the top 5 I was like "Kick ass! see you all, i'm going to IHOP" and took the family there and ate while they were still all backstage It's kinda spooky when you hear about 1 girl breaking her neck preparing for the show, and they all had injuries like torn hamstrings and shoulders and ankles and wrists and a girl had to be carried off stage, it's just not worth it to me to have a broken neck out of a hobby call me crazy

Now you know what I was getting at earlier, fitness in my opinion has turned into a demolition derby of sorts, problem is, your body is the car. I still think you should take a shot at figure. Qualifying for pro status shouldn't be that hard at this point and why not make a little money out of a hobby?

because I don't like heels, and I don't like rhinestones on every single eyelash and i'm more of the type of girl who can now focus more on her grappling (ground fighting) which is much safer than fitness routines. Physique/figure is just not for me But many people have told me the same thing, including most all the judges.

Truly amazing and a great inspiration....Congratulations on your own personal accomplishments!! To hell with what the judges think!!
