Well here we are at the end of August! I am so ready for this heat to end and to be able to go back to exercising outside once in a while. I was able to hit the track last week the day it rained so hard here and that was great.
I am now in preparation for Fitness America in Las Vegas the weekend of November 16 and 17th. I will compete in Bikini division and maybe Fitness Model although I am still considering that right now and all that it entails. It's more money, more outfits and more makeup appointments. It is a wonderfully fun experience AND it is an expensive experience. So I will pray and meditate on the best thing and go from there.
This month I am hitting my glutes hard. I was not happy with the hamstrings/glutes at last year's show. That is what we do after each show is decide how we could be better for the next show. For me that was hamstrings/glutes AND I am changing how I diet down. Of course a coach is key and for me Jamo Nezzar from JamCore Training. He has fantastic energy and a good eye. A coach is a great idea for everyone. I don't care how long you have been training or coaching other people when it comes to your own body an outside eye is essential. A coach that understands how the body works can keep you calm when you are getting intense at the end and you're exhausted. I recommend it for everyone and always use one myself.
So back to my glutes story. I am hitting legs once per week and then later in the week I am attacking the glutes specifically with targeted exercises. I am only doing HIIT training 2X per week. On those days I am doing the HIIT morning and night. It is easier mentally on me to power through just 2 days of two a days then 5 or 6 days which I know is coming. The good thing is that when I get to that time it will be cooler here in Phoenix so I can go to the track or at least be outside. I love to lift weights! I hate the cardio or HIIT training. So I am making sure that I get on the diet right away. Remember!! You cannot out exercise a bad diet.
Okay, I have to get back to work. My students are emailing. Have a fantastic day everyone and I will keep you posted.
