Naturals KW Classic Figure Competiton
9 Weeks to go!
Well I am 9 weeks away from my competition. I don’t like the way that sounds when I say weeks instead of months. Makes me scared, and so I should be scared! Spent a week in Newfoundland visiting family and playing tourist and that has set me back quite a bit. I tried to stay on track but even the most disciplined person would have to be part super hero to resist my relatives “charms.” Wine, a “jigg’s” dinner, Moose meat, Scallops, tea biscuits, Toutons, Seafood chowder, Uhm did I say wine? I felt a little lost without a gym but I packed my TRX and did something every morning. It is nice to be back though and lifting weights.
Every week counts now! No missing workouts. I have to be consistent and on track with my nutrition. Macros are sitting at 40/40/20. Don’t know if that is right for a competitor but I am just gathering as much information as I can from the internet and trying to piece it together for my body. As far as workouts go I have to try and work around my clients and classes as I don’t want to end up too tired to teach. I also know what I need to focus on and change. This is my workout regime at least for the next 3 weeks keep in mind I still have clients and a business to run, oh yeah and a family at home Bahaha can’t forget about them!
Monday’s: AM: Teach cycle, *at some point in the day do my workout; Gluteus, Abdominals. PM: teach Ripped with Reps but I will be using light weights and lots of reps so don’t consider it a training workout for my competition needs
Tuesday: AM: Teach Body Shredder. * at some point in the day do Biceps. Triceps, Abs. PM: Teach Body Shredder. This class is an hour and 15 mins and very tiring.
Wednesday: AM: Teach Tabata. *at some point in the day do Upper back, gluts and Obliques. PM Teach Tabata. Tabata classes I mostly just set up stations and correct form but any leg and abdominal stations I will participate in.
Thursday: AM: Participate in Ripped with Reps. I will be using heavy weights and focusing more on the upper body portions of the class then “top up” later. PM: Teach Avengers (out door boot camp style) this one I just have to bark out orders!
Friday: Work Upper back, gluts and Obliques
Saturday: Teach Avengers. Do my workout, Biceps and Triceps
Sunday: Try to fit in a 10k Roller Blade ride sometime over the weekend.
Sunday: Food pre for the week.
As you can see this is a lot of work and commitment! But having a plan makes you more accountable. “Have a plan or plan to fail”. I have printed off my workouts and have them on my vision board. Now I have a daily reminder and positive visuals of the end result. (Next post I may be brave enough to post a progress photo.)
