Two Weeks!

Hey Everyone! So I’m officially two weeks out until my figure competition! I've got my suit, shoes, tanning set up, hotel, etc. I’m super excited! I’ve been doing a lot to prepare! I’ve always thought working out and eating healthy was enough prep for this sort of event, but it’s a lot more! I’ve had fun learning about how this all works and even the joy of learning in and of itself.
 
I’m really eager for this competition! My first one ever, so I am having many emotions. I’m sure I’ll have many more emotions when it’s within a few days of the actual competition, but I feel I’ve really prepared myself for this competition, mentally and physically. It’ll be awesome!
Like I said earlier, I have two weeks left until pre-judging, so I’m in my legit cutting phase. My nutrition guide right now is pretty repetitive, but definitely nutritionally valuable. I eat a lot of green vegetables, tuna and chicken, lots of egg whites, and some other veggies.  It’s been really tough to stay on such a bland regimen, but I know in the end it’ll be worth it. It’s also good for me! There are rewards and consequences to everything!

My workouts have remained the same, for the most part. I’ve added in a lot more cardio though. Morning runs, weights, more cardio. It’s a good thing I love cardio! And love working out! Well clearly I love it all!! I have a passion for these things! Health, training, learning, it’s all so fascinating. Anyway, officially two weeks away from competition! I’ll update you more later; of course!
