Miss Cory's Training Journal

[cocopuffs]

Okay! Hi everyone..i'm Cory, i'm 16.. 17 in a few months(haha if it makes a difference)
I always feel better when I can write out how i felt on certain days where i had a good workout or not. Or if i was stressed and if that affected my cravings, weight and so on..

So I have a trainer and i've had her for the past 4 months, she is amazing. I knew a lot before I started working with her but its like a re-assurance thing I like to have by my side. She's taught me so much more and once i'm 18 I plan on getting certified and working with her and her clients!

I weighed 127 back in June when I started with her.. I was able to get down to 119 and I was looking great, rounded shoulders, biceps and triceps developing perfectly, my core was outlining and my legs had definition. I was planning on competeing in Figure on Dec 1. But then I hit rock bottom with stress and just family problems and dropped down to 113 and lost a lot of lean muscle and I was looking frail.. my trainer is my mentor, I love her to death. We share everything and i'm so lucky to have her in my life because she helped me kick my self in the face and realize that I was developing a eating disorder.. I took my stresses out by not eating enough as a way to control. It was something I didnt even realize I was really doing until she talked to me about it..
She has been trying to get my weight to be at 120..
but i'm still kinda stubborn and love my cardio and i'm back at 118.
I hope to compete in March and that gives me lots of time to really form my self into something.


I would love to get some feed back once I start sharing my diet and workout log =]

Today I worked with my trainer..
we did chest, triceps and abs..

We did 3 exercises for chest, 4 for triceps and 2 for abs.
I'd post exactly what we did, but i'm tryin to make this quick.

Then I did 30 min of cardio.
I'm eatin this chicken salad with balsamic viniger right now..and i put way to much dressing.. ughh grosss.

Buuuuut today I felt good during my workout.
I didnt get a headache, felt it comin during the chest press with dumbells, especially when I was using the 30 pounders.. but it didnt come all the way, thank goodness.

Today after my workout I weighed 116.8
