11 weeks out....

So, my clients have 3 weeks till their show here in Japan... and I'm 11 weeks out.Trying to wrap up their final weeks, while trying to push myself into focus.

Last week was one of my best. I'm down to 147ish now :) My goal is ___? Not really sure? I just want to keep getting leaner so I can see what my new poses will look like. It will be down to 140lbs somewhere.

I have to be honest, dont like doing bodybuilding poses. I guess Im just not used to them. Next weekend, JrUSAs will have the first WPD national class. I'll get a great idea as to what the judges are looking for then.

More to come... maybe I'll post a pic next week?

APRIL 2011!

So I've been MIA!

Since my last post about the Emerald Cup, I went on to Nationals back home in Ohio. I placed 4th in fitness at the North American in the tall class. Shortly after, the npc changed the rules for fitness, making the routine more than HALF of the total scoring. Since my routine wasn't strong, I was almost sure fitness wasn't for me... so now what?

WELL!... The npc also introduced a NEW category called Womans Physique Division (WPD), at all National Shows this year. Its basically for a women who's body is between a figure and bodybuilder, they want the woman smaller than bbers, with more feminine posing (openhanded, on toes, no most muscular), and less hardness, dryness, and striations. I feel that I would fit here physically, best. I do not have a small frame or an upside down martini-glass look that they like in figure. I do not want to be any BIGGER, so def not straight up bodybuilding. So I'll try to bring up my legs just a bit more, and work on my abs.... and get the posing down (with help from Zoa Linsey here in Oki!!!)

Now for my prep, I can finally eat carbs, AND lift heavy, maintain muscular size and shape, and just go into a show strong and full. I always dieted HARD and cardioed HEAVY for figure to bring myself down everywhere.

We've already booked tickets and lodging for my show: The USAs in Vegas, July 29/30! http://lindsayproductions.com/11EventInfoUSA.php
The boys and my hubby are coming - I'm very excited!!!

I'll try to stay more frequent with this next journey.... I'm 16 weeks out, started my diet today...... :)
