Week #4

Another weekend has come and gone and they seem to be picking up speed it feels.
Today was the start of week #4 and both my diet and workout program changed.
My diet went from a soaring 2400 calories to 1800 calories, which meant taking out my peanut butter and most of my fruits...of course the good stuff...however adding a protein shake for my evening snack...details on the taste will come tomorrow, I'm not bettin on anything too tasty.

As for my workout program today was an upper body day and Shane designated it a "push" day. So things like bench press, DB bench press, Skull crushers, DB shoulder press...you get the idea
Tomorrow is a heavy leg day
Wednesday is 60 min of cardio
Thursday is upper body "pull" day
Friday circuit leg day
Saturday 60 min cardio
Sunday OFF!
Plus an additional 4 days of short cardio (30min) in the evenings!!!!!!
BRING IT.

WEEK #3 Starts today!

Week 3 has started and in full swing.
Today I did a brutal upper body workout thanks to Shane.....
and finished with some sprints.....my favorite.... At one point in my life I thought I was all done with those silly things but lo and behold they have creeped back up in my life.
Oh well
I weighed in today and down 6lbs and 2% body fat!!!!
Diet stays the same for one more week......oh how i will miss peanut butter....

Week #2

It's Wednesday May 12th and I am happy to have almost 2 weeks training under my belt.
This weeks structure was pretty much the same as last weeks as far as programming and diet. 4 days of lifting and 2 days of cardio with Sunday OFF! Eating 2400 calories over 6 meals.
Today I did 45 minutes on the elliptical and burned 500 calories!!
Tomorrow I hit the weights again with Shane for an upper body day and will finish with some sprints........my favorite.....SIGH...
So far Im down a total of 6lbs. I believe I get my body fat % tested next Monday so I will soon know if I dropped any in that department as well!
Picture will come at the end of this week.

WEEK #1

Ive been toying with the idea of training for a figure competition for over a month now, but was not sure how to go about the whole process. After talking with a few different people about it I decided to work with a friend of mine who is a trainer at Lifetime Fitness in North Austin.
Both Shane and his wife Kate are great and very goal oriented.
I met with him on Monday to start the program.
First thing first. DIET!
That was the first thing out of his mouth. I knew going into this that the diet was going to brutal.
Good thing he started me out slow. 2400 calories a day. Eating 6 times per day. Which or me is easy. And of course. NO ALCOHOL!
Yikes! Time to work on other copping skills!
As for the training, this week we did a strength program 4 days a week and cardio 2 times per week.
We've set out on path for me to compete on August 7, 2010 at the NPC Capital of Texas Roundup at the Austin Convention Center.
Ill try to post a weekly picture to show my progress!
Thnx everyone for your support
