Bikini Contest Prep – Weeks 1-2

Coach SYLeave a comment

As you all know, I have been in the running game for quite some time now (not as much lately as before but I still gets it in every now and again).  Well, last March I wanted to help my running by adding some strength training into the mix.  Somehow, I got totally hooked on lifting weights and only ran when I made the time (outside of lifting).  It was also during this time that I met several people in the figure competition world.  I saw that you had to be very disciplined, focused and determined to make that a reality.  I already posses all of those traits, so I said why not give it a try.

So here I am weeks 1-2 giving it a go.

Bikini Contest Prep

Coach SY8 Comments

Last year I said I wanted to compete in a show before my 40th birthday. I wasn’t sure what type of show 😁, I just knew that I wanted to hit that stage.  Well my 40th  has came and went so I decided why not now.  I talked to my good friend in the business and he pointed me to a coach in my local area that knew the ropes.  My new coach recommends a bikini competition, so bikini it is.

Me on my 40th birthday getting ready to head to the beach in Puerto Vallarta!!

 

You can follow me right here on this journey.  I’m excited and a little nervous.  Nervous because a lot of folks say, ‘you can’t do this on a plant based diet’.  I follow a few vegans on social media that are doing it without any issues.  So, I’m sure about to see what it does and hopefully it’s not as bad as ‘them’ folks say.

 

Wish me luck!!! Day 1 starts tomorrow.
