First off, people on bb.com are AWESOME! Thank you so much for all the support and motivation. While I'm at the gym I think about all the things I've read on here when executing new moves, trying out new diets or workouts, etc.
Anyhow, after spending countless hours here on bb.com and attending the INBF Alamo Showdown yesterday, I am freshly motivated and thought I would post a contest thread... not to be showing my body all over the internet, but to keep myself accountable knowing there are people out there seeing my fat butt haha.
I am preparing for my first contest, the NPC Lackland on November 21, 2009. I am currently 7 weeks out minus one day.
I will be competing in bikini and figure.
So, to start I'll give you my stats, current diet and basic workout plan:
Female
5'10"
160lbs, 137lbs lean mass
13%bf
34-25-40
arms: 12.5"
legs: 25"
calves: 16"
Trying to hypertrophy upper body, lean out lower body, too much leg muscle
Workout
Every day - 45 min cardio upon waking, usually HIIT on the river trail, with carnitine and CytoLean
Sunday- Upper body (big movements, low reps, heavy weights)
Monday - Lower body (big movements, high reps, low weights)
Tuesday - plyo
Wed - back/chest (low rep, heavy)
Thurs - single joint legs (light weight)
Fri - bi/tri (heavy)
Sat - shoulders, plyo
Everything is followed by whatever cardio I can muster - stairmill, incline walk, elliptical
Current diet until end of week 6:
meal 1:
protein, .5 cup oatmeal
meal 2:
5 egg whites, .5 cup oatmeal (oatmeal pancakes, yum!!!)
meal 3:
5 oz meat
.5 cup greens
.5 cup brown rice
meal 4:
same
meal 5:
5 egg whites
.5 cup spinach
meal 6:
protein
Currently: seeing progress but cheating too much, must crack down to lean out this lower body. abs are showing, arms need to be more defined. legs are just too big, as are hips, need to be more streamlined, big round butt but no defined glutes
Photo 43, 45, 28 - taken 4 days ago of abs, legs and arms
Photo-8 - taken today when I put on this jeans and realized that I had lost some weight! Legs are still full and tight in the jeans but waist is super loose!
