GETTIN' FIRED UP!

Tomorrow marks 14 weeks until comp prep begins (hence the countdown clock on the side-which is slightly cut off) and I am happy to say that I am really excited! (even after my last "up and down" post) Almost as excited as I was two years ago when I was contemplating my very first comp. Right now I am super happy with how my body is responding to everything. My pec/shoulder problem seems almost gone! Even through bench press-which hasn't been super heavy, but I had avoided it for months until the last couple of weeks-and I have been slowly increasing the weight with no back lash! Next week, Thursday to be exact (chest & shoulder day), I am going to go for a max!

I am really starting to figure out what my body responds best to-food wise and workout wise-gee it only took me 42 years..LOL! One thing that really excites me about comps this time is the fact that I won't be drinking at all-so I'm really hoping that my lower half leans out more without those extra empty calories.

For now, I'll continue eating the way I do which is not counting calories but generally clean and continue working out with slow focused form and doing treadmill and walk/jogs-which all seems to be working for now; then on February 21, 2010 the comp prep begins...I am reporting here today that I plan to do three comps next year. The first one is ANB in Townsville 23 May,(which I had thought was 16 May until right now when I checked again) the next one ANB ASIA PACIFIC at the Gold Coast 29 May, then INBA ALL FEMALES in Melbourne 10 July.

Yep-it's going to be a big year! WOOHOO!!
