Time for an update. I was out of town for a few days, so I am going to give the condensed version
Thursday morning- cardio x 45 min. 30 min on the ARC trainer and 15 on treadmill. This was the first time I ever used the ARC and it is awesome!! I am gonna hit our new CEO at our Y up for one..lol..let's see how far I get with that!
I did legs that afternoon. Same as before.
Friday morning- 45 min cardio all on the ARC. Later in the morning I trained with Decay on this board. A good friend and fellow competitor. We did arms. This guy has wicked bicep development!!! Awesome! Made me look like a little girl..lol..
That was it for training and cardio. I had a good time Friday night. met up with Decay and his wife. Had some drinks (I had a lot ) It was my last drink til Xmas!! I had a ball!
Soooo, my competition diet started this morning- YAY!!!! I am so very excited!! My prep guy (Andy) has me on a keto diet for at least 3 weeks, to give me a kickstart. This is the first keto diet I have ever done. It'll be interesting!!
I will train later today- chest and shoulersComment

I had to warmup my shoulder a LOT before I could start. Holy crap you should hear it when I first start. And it hurts too!! After awhile it loosens up quite a bit and it's ok. I have gone up in weight to on the presses and bench, so it's cool. One of the things I do to warmup is that DC stretch Matt and Aaron showed me.
Cardio this am x 45 min. 30 on elliptical, 15 on bike. I am taking 24 mg ephedrine before cardio and holy crap do I ever sweat. I gotta bring a towel from now on.
It's amazing how only 1 day on my diet, and I feel like a million bucks lolComment

Well, I was away for a few days. I was in a place where I had no access to a gym, so I didn't train or do cardio. But, I am very proud to say, that I stuck to my diet 100%. I took all my food with me, and while evryone else ate take out and sweets, I had what I was supposed to. I am very proud of myself..lol..we stayed in a B&B where the owner always had freshly baked cookies/muffins, etc for the guests. And I must say that it didn't bother me a bit.Comment
