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! ![]() DP |

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.

Cut cardio next week? 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! ![]() |

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. ![]() |

hmmm, this isn't a good side effect. maybe I shouldn't be looking to go out with a "fitness chic". Well not til you two find a cure at least.
![]() but that does suck, sorry to hear about your probs. ![]() Last edited by dvlmn666 : 06-10-2002 at 01:43 PM. |

"When I use the word intensity I mean the ability to continue past and through the pain barrier where your mind pleads to stop and in fact convinces your body that you have hit failure, but you push through. How far you push through that barrier is the level of intensity with which you train." -- Twin Peak

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)" |

The low sex drive is directly related to the low bodyfat.... Happened to me too...I'm sure the good Doc can fix you both as well

'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 Last edited by J'Bo : 06-12-2002 at 07:21 AM. |
