Just goofing off in front of the mirror.
I have noticed a dramatic difference in the shape of my physique. I am more narrow in my waist (25.25 inches!) and my butt is getting tighter with a more distinguished tie of my hamstrings and glutes. I have also noticed a difference in the development of my quads. I actually have a sweep going on!
So you may be wondering what have I been doing differently in my workouts/nutrition this season compared to last season?
As part of Bombshell, confidentiality is important. I can however give you some basic ideas.
I train 6 days a week consisting of early morning interval cardio sessions and 5 days a week of split lifting days. I never used to do fasted cardio so that is new for me and I LOVE IT! I also lift a little lighter and higher reps than what I used to but I hit my muscles hard mostly with super sets including lots of plyometrics!
A typical training & cardio week:
Mon- AM Cardio, Legs-Quads
Tues- AM Cardio- Shoulders, Chest, Triceps
Wed- AM Cardio- Legs- Hamstrings
Thurs-AM Cardio- Back, Biceps, abs
Fri-AM Cardio- Shoulders, Glutes, and Calves
Sat- AM Cardio
Sun-OFF
Tues- AM Cardio- Shoulders, Chest, Triceps
Wed- AM Cardio- Legs- Hamstrings
Thurs-AM Cardio- Back, Biceps, abs
Fri-AM Cardio- Shoulders, Glutes, and Calves
Sat- AM Cardio
Sun-OFF
This is again only an average week for me, each month varies depending on how far out or close I am to a competition.
I am currently 10 weeks out from my show (NPC Metropolitan in NYC on March 31st) and am very excited to see how I look on stage because I have NEVER been this lean 10 WEEKS out!
I am guessing that I will step on stage somewhere between 9-10% body fat. However, my coach, Shannon Dey is not concerned with body fat. Its about our shape and tightness. At my last show I stepped on stage at 124 lbs and 10.44%. I am right now about 131-132 and 12.78%. I am not sure how much I will weigh. All I am focusing on right now is following my plan 110% and bringing my absolute best!
