I felt like a kid in a candy store last night when I arrived home to a big box of VPX supplements sitting on my porch. I quickly unpacked everything and put it all in its specific location. The next morning when my alarm clock went off at 4:00 I was wide awake and excited to get to the gym to try out the new flavors of my supplements. I drank my pre-workout NO Shotgun, grabbed my stuff and off to the gym I went. I try to get there at 4:30 but this morning I didn't start training until about 4:50. Some of the other PR girls started to show up and before we knew it we were already sweating up a storm. On today's to-do list we had a little bit of everything... we did do a lot of legs today though. There comes a point where you don't dislike lunges anymore... they just become part of your routine. Power Shock grape is definitely Christy approved, I found myself having more and more energy as I drank it. After weights was as much cardio as I could fit in before it's time to get ready for work. I have a regular 8-5 desk job which I enjoy but not my 'dream' job. At 10 it's time to enjoy my Zero Carb Graham Cracker and Peanut butter protein 'ice cream'. Literally the most delicious thing in the world. Now it's lunch time and I find myself perusing the internet for the latest and greatest in the fitness industry, check out forums and blogs, I try to get my 'fix' for the day... I'm a self proclaimed junkie :o)After work tonight my plans include another trip to the gym to knock out the rest of my cardio and posing practice. I am training for my first show which I am very excited about. Coach Carla has recommended The Northern in Boulder on April 3. It seems like every time I go to the gym I can see a difference in my physique. Since this is my first competition I am really curious and excited to see how my body responds to all of the changes in my diet that will soon be coming my way. But for now, I'll take it one day at a time, I mean I do have just over 8 weeks of preparation time... I'm not counting or anything ;o)
