I’m drawing upon all my strength to not only type this but to also stay awake. That’s right, today was leg day and we all know what that means don’t we.
I’ve physically hit the wall this evening folks. Lets see, the day started off with a 5km ride to work, followed by leg training at the base gym and then finishing the day with a leisurely 5km ride back home with a head wind. It doesn’t get much better then that let me tell you. And you know what, I wouldn’t have it any other way. This is my choice, so therefore I can’t complain about it. So on that note, I’m taking myself off to the shower followed by an early night in bed as this will be my reward.
Enjoy the rest of your evening!

I never thought I’d see the day where I couldn’t wait to get out of bed just so I could ride my bike to work and go to the gym. But that’s exactly what happened after a week of being on holidays. I know, I’m a creature of habit and I like my routine. Things just seem to get done and run more smoothly that way.
I’m almost bouncing of the walls with enthusiasm and excitement! All I can say is that I am loving life!
“In competition, I’ve had to deal with the size of my bust taking away from the appearance of my chest development, so I have had to really concentrate on my upper pecs while training. Lower pectoral exercised are useless as far as women are concerned, because all you see on a female bodybuilder are the tops and middle parts of the pecs. My chest routine is built on incline movements to boost upper-pec development and improve the all-important pec-delt tie-ins. In the offseason, I do incline barbell presses, four sets of each for five to eight reps. Precontest, I add either dumbbell flyes or cable crossovers to refine the muscles.”

My music for this years figure competition season is finished! Katie’s and my music have both been done and I’m absolutely stoked about it. We picked our music, selected which pieces we wanted for an introduction, body and then conclusion and have now had it mixed by a sound engineer. It’s perfect!
That’s another thing ticked off our things to do list and we’re right on schedule too, even better. I love it when a plan comes together. All this cost nothing but time which is the best thing about it, anyone who competes knows how all the hidden costs can add up.
