    v1, 2014 contest prep (7 weeks out)

    Whats up!! So I thought I would start a new log covering the last 7 weeks of my prep leading up to a local showing I'm doing in Aug. I'll re-post what I've already added to my last (which isn't much) journal just to keep this straight. I hope you find thing entertaining!

      Overall, a good week! Started incorporating some HIT Swimming into my cardio program and hoping to see some results from that. As week 6 approaches, I will start to work on my mandatory poses some as well as select which song I plan on using for the show. No real changes to the diet. I want to see if the added swimming will cause some changes by itself.

        I love following logs, especially the diet changes that occur based on progress. Would it be too much to ask for you to include some of that stuff? Haha

          I’ve been using this break down since last week (WK7). With this break down I’ve do 2 low days, 4 med days and one high day. I’m thinking about switching this up after wk 6 to a low day every two days followed by a high day after each third low day. Will see how things go next week. Weight is still coming off slowly but I’m not freaking out just yet in light of my BF is coming down.

          Carbs: Pro: Fats:
          High Day: 575 175 45
          Med Day: 115 225 65
          Low Day: 95 245 85

          On high days most of my carbs come from clean sources with little fat as possible in each meal. I also incorporate one junk (small one) towards the end of that day.

Will post later as its time to get some food down!! Also I'm going to implement the every two day low carb approach this week as se where I end up.

                Phoenix,, Thanks! So far I've enjoyed incorporating it into my program. It seems as if it really doesn't take much to get the hart pumping!!

                            Thanks, got some workouts to post in here. Just finding the time is the hard part. If i'm not getting myself reay for the next day, I'm eating, if I'm not eating, I'm on the treadmill or posing. Seems like it's always something!!
