You Go Girl !!! That is so cool.....wish I had the discipline in my diet to try competing--- I would need a live-in coach.....and a chef would be nice too. I love fried foods to much Cookin some fried chicken now as I type......hee hee
Most my actual show photos turned out like crap, and from 3 seperate cameras!! Heres a kinda crappy leg shot.
Grrr.., diet was your basic pr-contest diet (low comp. carbs, potein 5x day, lots of steamed veggies, no sugar or fats or wheat or dairy).
Lost 25 lbs. in 8 weeks.
Training: weights, 5 day split
Cardio:
1st 4 weeks:
minimum 60 minutes 4x week
Weeks 5 & 6:
75 minutes 5x week
Week 7:
75 minutes 2x day
Week 8:
circuit weights only for 3 days until wed, then nothing, water depletion started
what did you weigh in at? how tall are you and what do you think your end bodyfat was? just curious. I'm going in middleweight for my first show in 6 weeks and i'm at 139 and about 7% bf right now... So hopefully w/ water loss and a more bodyfat that comes off I'll come in at the top end of the MWs...
When is your next show?
AJ
By the way you look great!!!! I think you look just amazing
AJD, I weighed in at 127 (max. weight in class 132), I wanted to be heavier, but I was too carb depleted. 1st place weighed exact same as me, she was maybe an inch taller, but with fuller abs. I am 5'7". Next show I would like to be closer to the cut-off (130- 132 if possible). I can only guess at my bodyfat.. it was measured w/calipers during the entire process, but not the last week at the show. Somewhere around 6-7%.
Sounds like you are already there as far as BF, can you see all your cuts? If so, isn't there an earlier show you can go into? 7% is real low for a woman to carry for 6 weeks.
Heeheee.. wait till after the show.. I gained 12 pounds in 24 hours... wooohoooo....bloated up like a tick, couldn't bend my fingers from all the water retention. Lost most of it withing a few weeks though. Now i weigh 132-134. Want to gain another 10lbs. before I start dieting again for next show.
