The Cut of No Return

donescobar2000 · 08-06-2003, 07:01 PM

Yeah? That's a new one to me also.

nikegurl · 08-06-2003, 07:01 PM

Hi Jodi - You're taking the ICE before workouts, right?

Did you go with the grape? I hear it tastes best. I think I'm going to be able to try this and L2 after all. Will order Friday. (and yes, I'm actually eating today)

Been meaning to ask you....do you enjoy training legs more or less know that you're not killing yourself with the heavy heavy squats and leg presses?

nikegurl · 08-06-2003, 07:02 PM

Jodi will tell us for sure but I believe they are like plie squats (think ballet dancer at a bar)

Feet out, wider than shoulder width apart. Am I right?

donescobar2000 · 08-06-2003, 07:04 PM

Ahhh...I got it.

nikegurl · 08-06-2003, 07:41 PM

Hi Jodi - One more ICE question. I see it comes in 2 lb size. Does it happen to say on your container how many scoops are in there. I'm trying to get an idea of how long it will last (budget!)

Are you only taking it on lifting days? Thanks for always helping (me and everyone else)

Twin Peak · 08-06-2003, 07:55 PM

180 scoops. Scoop = 5g protein.

**Jodi** · 08-06-2003, 08:05 PM

Yes they are plie squats. I like my leg workouts I make them fun and challenging by superseting, trisetting and giant sets.

I sip on ICE while I'm working out. I got the fruit punch. Doesn't taste bad at all and this container will definately last a LONG time.

Hey Jodie,

I'm definately nervous because I hear all the horror stories about unfair judging with NPC. That's OK though because with this being my first comp I'm not going worry if I don't place.

Ah Ha! LOL I found You!!!!

Its on Sunday because 1.) It keeps the same format as the NPC New England Championship which the first Sunday of every May, and 2.) because Im poor, I work Mon-Sat!!!lol so I dont even have a day off those 2 weeks in Sept!

2. Dont worry about "horror stories" A common misconception is that someone lost because they werent from the judges gym. My judging lineup changes slightly year to year, but currently has 1 from CT, 2-3from ME, 2-3from MA, and LOL 1 from NH. Just 1 NH judge for a NH show!!!

Jodi, youll do fine, be fine, and come by if you need any help!! or email SQ700@aol.com

**Jodi** · 08-07-2003, 11:03 AM

LOL! Guess it wasn't too hard to find me Dave. There are only so many places to look

Thanks - doesn't mean I'm not nervous though

You know that rice I had in the sushi rolls cost me a High Carb Day today.

Hey NG,

I am using ICE in the grape flavor. It tastes like Kool-aid even when I mix Leptigen with it.

I asked TP the same question and right now I am taking ICE on lifting days. May adjust this later but for right now it is working gr8!

Glad to see you are eating.

LOOKING GR8 JODI

**Jodi** · 08-07-2003, 11:28 AM

TP - We are use to your humor and lack of smilies. Remember Most are not.

Off to my interview!

Wish me luck!

Dave seems like the sort of chap who will pick up on it quickly.

Or else he will kick my ass.

Good luck.
