DP, in many ways that's true, but because it is the LAST week don't you find that it is also the easiest?

Not actually!

Posing is harder than training..and at this point you should be posing 4 X 15 minutes a day!

Water, sodium...potassium...and carbs...all get manipulated...it plays havoc on the mind and body....Cramps...hunger...headaches (all of these can be prevented, btw)


Finally shaving or waxing..tanning...bronzing...peeing every 8 minutes..then becumming "bone dry" (the kidneys hate that)...chapped lips, low energy....

And if your very lucky...you keep your sex drive!

I hear you, but I always enjoyed the last week; and yes the posing is the worst part!

I love the last week, except for the torture of the water....and of course all the stress, and I hate posing...and well, all that other shit DP mentioned, but for some reason the last week is when i'm most focused, I love it.

J'Bo...w8 may or may not have told you...we will probably cut cardio early next week...when we manipulate your nutrition...I hope you trust us by now....it's the toughest week..the week of a show!


DP
I dont really know what my bodyfat is, cause i use an at home Tanita scale for calculating my BF. The scale is not that accurate, especially for women, during certain times of the month. The photo shoot may or may not happen now, kind of a last mintue deal so i am not going to cut my water today. So i am to do cardio every day? Is that what your saying? So 20 min tommorrow, 25 min Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, then 30 min on Saturday?

Cut cardio next week? Happy about that one. Manipulate? Well then can't wait for that one. Does the manipulation include pancakes? I trust you guys by now, but still dont look as lean as last show. This is the toughest week? Well i can handle that. Ohh next week is the hardest, well if it includes 8 liters of water then i geuss so. The water has been the hardest part for me. I trusted W8 about the sugar cravings disappearing and they have.

I thought you guys should know that i decided yesterday that i will not be competing in Septembers fitness show. I feel that i dont have the time to fully commit myself to the sport after this show. My boyfriend and i are in the process of starting our businesses up and i would rather focus on this. Two shows a year is plenty for me!

I too found that the last week was the easiest last time around. I think it was because you know that there is absolutely no room to cheat.

yep - i hadn't even made the connection! i'm glad it came up (no pun intended). i go along but that's hardly the same thing for him or me. i just isn't on my brain anymore and i'm with you - it's a problem and not one we're used to.

he already hates the way i've been eating so this "side effect" is definitely not a good one.

but that does suck, sorry to hear about your probs.

I am a sucker for cut arms.

Here is the scoop on water, besides filtering etc health benefits, the body will retain water if your intake is low. So, drink more and the body will just piss it out because it knows there is a water surpluss.

.66 x bodyweight in pounds = ounces to drink daily

.66 x 155 = 102 ounces, almost a gallon (gal being 128 ounces)"

'cept my bodyfat isn't that low! damn.

J'Bo - I've got lots to learn but isn't your protein kind of low for Meal #1? I could be wrong and it may be exactly what you wanted it to be. Seemed low so thought I'd mention it.

And by the way - good job resisting that cinnamon roll. The smell is so strong it must have followed you as you walked away!

You're gonna do great!

Why yes I can!

While low levels of BF and hormonal flux play havoc on the body...there are some rather good products on the market!

First let me say that flax and other fats are your friends during this time....they can help somewhat with LOWBIDO.....most of your "sex" hormones come from cholesterol, which fat oxidizing programs lower.

Now things that you can take..some you wood not want to..like

Prohormones (if you are so incline, they work 5 times better for women at increasing short term Testosterone)

Damiana

Yohimbe that has been Standardized for Yohimbine (see health warnings)

Wild Oats

Dong Quai

Pregnenolone

Dhea (warnings)

...or a couple of really good combination products are:

Intimate Response by Source Naturals
Libido Formula by Emerita

and countless others...many that are bogus!

Shoot went awesome, it was alot of fun. I had to hold a lat pulldown for 10 minutes though. Ummm sore lats! I cut my water last night at 6pm and boy did it make a difference, i woke up harder. There were 4 other girls doing the shoot with me, 3 of them are either competing in fitness or the physique next weekend. I was leaner than all of them, so that made me happy.

Day Eleven

Meal one: after the shoot
1.5 scoops protein
1/4 cup nuts

Meal two:
150g extra lean ground beef
1/2 cup rice
4 egg whites
1 yolk

Feeling great!

Meal three:
4 strawberries Ummm!
1/2 avocado
1/2 tin salmon
1 teaspoon mayo

Meal four:
serving of cod
1/2 sweet potato
2 cups salad
2 tablespoons orange vinegarette

Meal five:
tin tuna
1 tablespoon mayo
celery
1/4 cup pecans
