Saturday Workouts, glam & all that good stuff!

So doing a figure competition does require that you spend a little$$$. Myy suit was about $200 paid last year. Wearing the same one three shows in a row...oy...shoes $50. Not so bad...but then...

Airbrush tan + hi def makeup 145 x 2=$290. That said, I could walk into MAC cosmetics and buy the same make up that i will never use for about the same thing..foundation,powder, blush, eys, cheeks & lips...again $$$. Then registration fees all within the 50-90 dollar range...oh and dont forget to become a member of each organization. Already a member of OCB but needed to join INBF & NPC. Set me back another $150. Yes...it adds up! Maybe thats why I am doing 3 in a row? Getting my moneys worth? Hmmm...

IF I do ok (meaning I place) I will be getting another suit to compete in. My poor red suit is probably going to shrivel up after May 7!!! Im going to go with blue...I love it and it looks pretty good...

This week is peak week...I will be on a kooky carb cycle starting tomorrow...low low carbs then pump them back up to liveable levels Thursday morning-hahaha!!! That said, I am lucky in a way...my metabolism has revved up since Ive gained lean muscle mass & burns thru what I eat so I dont have to go super super low...One thing I cant do this week is eat the dry oatmeal. Can u say all stopped up? EWWWWWWW...TMI, I kno....but it happens. And, I intentionally didnt buy anymore PB2...it is an addiction that will have to wait:)

Arms & Cardio today if time...but it would be ok to have an off day, too...

Yesterdays workout was legs, butt & abs..went like this!

1.)20 box jumps ss w/15 low squats with 45 lb barbell 30 secs rest x 4 rounds

2.)Smith Sumo squats w/40lbs x 20 ss w/KB swings 4 rounds

3.) Twisting Walking lunges w/14lb med ball x 25 ss w/wall balls x 3 rounds

4.) Exercise ball hamstring (supine) curls x 20 ss/w band glute extensions x 3 rounds

40 TRX atomic push ups

30 TRX Pikes

Finished with 7 sets of machine hamstring surls lighter weight with my back arched somewhat...seems to hit that crappy glute ham tie in nicely! I dont look down whan I do them I sort of do the cobra position and hold onto the arm rest...not teh handles. Prob look like a freak doing in but...WHO CARES??????? HA!

Then stretch for 5 mins...felt great!

Circus with Mags, diner with the fam then early bedtime...was soooo looking forward to it:)
