Hello peeps! The latest update is…I’m still on track! Just staying consistent with nutrition, cardio, resistance training, supplements, etc. I have NEVER eaten this cleanly in ALL MY LIFE! It’s pretty amazing. In one month I have not touched a piece of bread, candy, treat- NOTHING! And, I have adapted well so actually I am not really hungry, feel healthy, and could sustain this for a long time. I have also stayed consistent with the exercise and have not missed one workout, whether it be cardio or weights. The only thing that really bothered me was no rest days, and thank goodness my figure coach allowed me one rest day a week. After 37 days of non stop training, I AM RESTING TODAY!! YAYYY!! My calves are really sore, but besides that it feels good to not workout today.
My latest nutrition favs:
- basil & garlic powder
- Trader Joe’s mustard
- swai (fish)
- my orange chicken
- shiraraki noodles
My latest workout favs:
- Bulgarian split squats (HATE THEM…but love them)
- free hanging and assisted pull ups
- hanging leg raises (great for grip! and V-taper, of course)
This week I also took MMA & jiu jitsu (like I always do) but I also took wrestling, Muay Thai, and boxing. They were pretty tough because I have not been conditioning myself to handle high intensity exercise, but it was a nice challenge. Definitely want to focus on that more after my figure competition. 😉 For now, my focus is figure! I have spent countless hours this past week in the gym and/or grocery shopping, cooking, cleaning…but it’s been worth it. My weight has been dropping ever since I started contest prep and it’s really rewarding to see my metabolism functioning well and seeing the benefits of my hard work and dedication! 7 weeks and 6 days, baby. Still have a long way to go! But I can’t wait to get there!
Loads of love~
Kristina
