Ya never know - I'm local to atlanta. Too bad- my parents used to vacation for a month every fall in Ft Myers. THey just got a place up on the panhandle so too far away now. I used to be across alligator alley in Ft. Lauderdale but now I'm up nort'.
Where to start --- go check the "So you want to compete" stickie at the top of the board! The best thing to do is start asking around your area. I would really give Tim Gardner a call to see if he can give you some contacts in your area -- NO, he doesn't know me, but you can tell him I know Carla Salotti and she has nothing but the highest praise for his shows. You can probably get contact info off his show site - www.hurricanebay.net.

Awesome! I will def call Tim tomorrow to see about if he can recommend someone. The trainer I met today had a t-shirt w/ NPC on it - I think he said that he competed. I will quiz him more tomorrow. Oh, by the way, what questions should I ask him to see whether he's worth the $?? He saw me in the gym and noticed that my form was off so he came to give me some advice (how i met him). Thank you Sassy!!! ;-)
Excellent- I am going there right now ;-)) Thank you very much Sassy! PS How is World Gym working out for you and how is your rotator cuff?? Be careful with the rotator cuff. I used to interpret Polish for a client that had his cuff torn. Had 2 surgeries because of it. The doctor kept stressing to give the cuff rest, but he would not. Plus he was very heavy (overweight) so that did not help at all!

Let the fun begin.
Target
=====
2/25/06: NPC Atlantic - Figure (Goal: 140 lb, 10% bf... we'll see)
3/3/06: working at the 2006 Arnold
Current stats
==========
Weight: 163 lb
BF: ~20%
Diet
===
Laid out the diet tonite but not start until tomorrow. Detox diet thru Sunday, then new comp diet. Here, I'm falling back on the tried & true Beverly International-based diet I got from Quadsweep's Sis! (Not to mention the pressure of showing my progress at the Arnold in 2 months....
)
Training: Legs
==========
First day w/ the new guy. This is all goign to be higher rep, plyometrics, more aerobic based to support a move from BB to Figure, primarily drop bodyfat, reshape the muscle I have. I guess also I'll be working on posing on my own unless I can find someone at the gym. Hell, might even just keep practicing the BB posing since its great conditioning.
Picked legs because my shoulders have been bugging me, give 'em an extra day to relax. I've got 25 sessions to be spread over the next 8 weeks. Still need to lay out the schedule and what to do on the non-with-the-trainer days. Morning cardio every day as well.
Today:
5 min treadmill warmup
DB squats: 20 pulsing + 20 full + 20 pulse/20 x 2
Lunge squats: 20 pulse + 20 full + 20 pulse/20 x 4 (each leg x 2)
Lunge squats, 1 leg up on a bench + side laterals: 20/8 x 2
Lunge squats, 1 leg up on a bench + shoulder press: 20/8 x 2
Ham stretch w/ 10 lb DBs to toes, 1 leg kick back balance: 10 / 20 x 4
Leg extension: 100/15, 85/20, 70/22 55/25
Jumping up stairs by 2's: 5 lb ankle weights / 20 steps x 4
Donkey kickback w/ resistance band, 1 knee on BOSU ball: 20 x 4
Pull overs w/ 15 lb weight + crunch: 15/20 x 4
Crunches w/ DB punches alternating punch location: 10/40
30 min treadmill (in that awesome cardio theater - Batman Forever was playing !)
(Well, its a start ...)
