Hey you guys! Hope everyone is doing great! Well...it was bound to happen I guess. I am tipping the scales at around 188lbs these days. Bumped up my training a bit and backed off the cardio and WHAM! I gained this extra 10lbs like it was nothing. Ahh...genetics...gotta love 'em. I took some pretty cool pics with my phone and will upload a few on here in a sec to show you the "state of things"lately. Not too bad if I do say so myself. Striations in my chest/delts and full muscle bellies. Abs still tight and have great definition in my legs...which is a miracle! lol! Now, here is something freaky-my right calf is all better right? Well, now it appears larger than my left one and slightly different shaped. Guess that is how it healed up? Anyway, I guess as long as it's bigger I am okay with that! lol!
I am still kicking around competing but really need to figure out how I can carve out the necessary time to do so. My work schedule is pretty hectic and I would need to figure out my training situation as well. I will keep you all posted on my decisions as I make them.
Sacramento Pro was this past weekend and the Arnold is next up! Congrats to Heather Policky in the heavies and Tonie Norman in the lights! Way to go ladies!
It is bittersweet to watch these shows come and go as I sit here getting healthy and refining my physique...just sitting back figuring it allll out. I feel like a cat ready to pounce! Lol! My physique is raring to go but the other elements in my life are telling me to pump the brakes a bit and assess things for how they really are. Competing requires so much of one's life. It is all-consuming actually. Huge sacrifice and dedication while you are still trying to reestablish yourself in a new world. And yet there is the mirror pushing me onward taunting me with what could be if I wanted it to be....we shall see.
Member's update: I have been in contact with Andy. He has had my update for a week now and is a real busy man so I hope to see it up today or tomorrow. Hang in there! Here are some pics taken from last week and today at around 188lbs. Forgive the quality...camera phone!
