Wow I can’t believe how fast this year is
going already! It wasn’t until a little birdie asked me “when are you doing
another blog” that I realized how much time had gone by!
It’s been an amazing start to 2012 I love my
job even though it’s crazy busy and yet iv managed to fit in all my training at
the same time so I’m super happy!
I have definitely bounced back after my
little whirlwind over Christmas/new year (we are all human and have to let our
hair down sometimes!)
New training goals and a new training
program have really taken things to the new level. I hope you guys have been
reaching your goals as well!
I get a lot of people asking me how long iv
been training for .. they seem to have assumptions because I I won my first IFBB comp in march 2011 Fitx,
then won the overall bikini in Oct 2011 and competed in the first IFBB world
Bikini championships in Serbia… so today I thought id give a little insight on
how things have gone from my starting point until now…
When people ask me how long it is iv been
training for the always have a shocked look on their face when I give my
answer. Well iv been training on and off since I was about 18 but that doesn’t
really count since off periods could be a few weeks/months … but I can say iv
been training consistently and more seriously now for about 18 months. and it’s
only coming up to 1 year in March since I started competing for the first time.
This really isn’t that long in hindsight. A year ago I was stepping onto stage
for the first time and I can honestly say there has been some seriously changes
in my body since then! Also 18 months ago I didn’t even know what a protein
powder was … I was the same as most other girls who really fluctuate in their
weight … starve themselves to try to loose weight and then binge eat when
things get emotional or just cave in after starving yourself all day! Wow its
crazy even to me how far things have come now!
Basically what I’m trying to say is that
anyone can achieve a healthy lifestyle and the bikini body to go with it .. But
it does come with a lot of hard work I’m not going to lay! Iv always had a
really disciplined nature and loved a good challenge so iv been bale to really
reap the results in such a short time where iv seen my body change from comp to
comp and month to month. It was hard at the beginning having such a structured
training schedule and eating plan but now it’s just become a lifestyle, which I
absolutely love because I always feel great!
This doesn’t mean you have to do the same
to reach your goals in terms of being “crazy strict” but you do need a
structure I feel that this is they key to be successful for both nutrition and
training. This then goes hand in hand with CONSISTENCY in BOTH training and
nutrition. If you are not consistent then you can ruin all of that good work
you have done in no time!
I hear from customers and new clients all
the time “iv been taking this product or doing this workout” etc etc and its
not doing anything. Ill then ask them how long they have been training for and
the answer is always less than 3 months! Sometimes even 2 weeks! Change takes
TIME don’t get discouraged if you don’t see results right away your body takes
to time adjust to change but the results will come just keep pushing one day at
a time!
So don’t start tomorrow or next week start
TODAY! Its hard work but any small
change every day, week, month will lead to big results!
So I hope this has inspired you to get up
and get moving! Ill be doing more blogs more often with insight on
supplements training and just general everyday motivation and general
training/diet survival haha
