8 Weeks Out

[Jenny]

Hey Clp! Hope you had a wonderful birthday!
I have I couple of questions for you that I hope you don't mind me asking! What's you usual macronutrient breakdown?
How many calories do you eat and how many grams of each nutrient? Am kind of curious!

Keep kicking butt and stay away from that beer!!

 

[kuso]

Um,....are you the swedish babe I`ve stalking....um...chatting with at MM.com????

If so welcome

Then again, if not, welcome anyway!!!

 

[CLPgold]

Thanks w8. Well my day was definitely made yesterday.

Nike Girl I truly have no clue as to my break down and calorie count etc. I just guesstimate, but it's always worked well for me. I just don't have that kind of time to keep track of everything. It's pure dedication the keeps me logging food and workouts. I guess if you wanted to review my meals you could take the time to punch in all the numbers and figure it out. But I don't wanna

Kuso LMAO

[Jenny]

CLP, Well, was just curious.. at the moment I weigh and measure everything I put in my mouth.. made me interested in your macros.. Since I think you look great! Which means your guesstimating is working wonders!

Kuso, uhm, yeah.. I'm the swedish babe from MM alright! Gotta expand my views a little..

 

[CLPgold]

Tee hee to Kuso, STALKER!!! LMAO

Sorry I couldn't be more helpful Nike G. I was thinking that after July though, I will take the next year to be very precise with my diet. A client of mine has some excellent software for keeping exact tabs on cals vs. lean mass ratios, macro breakdowns, heart rate and cardio, etc. I'm interested in seeing what I can do with me using real science LOL.

Super hottie #2 finally came and talked to me today after inquiring about my single status for a few weeks. This boy is gorgeous!!! Didn't see the other one tonight. What a dilemma. Hottie #2 seems much more a sweet, relationship kind of guy though, #1 I think has a one track mind LOL...

 

[CLPgold]

I forgot the training log at work today. I've got a whole week of w/o's to post now.

Did a 3hr. killer leg w/o today. Plus 1/2hr. of plyometric training. It was awesome. Since I only do muscle groups once every 7 days, this was well worth the time put in.

I'm working on pre-spring cleaning. LOL. I'm going through all my clothes, coats, shoes etc and organizing and getting rid of crap if I haven't worn it in the last 4-6yrs. It's tough letting go of baggage

I'm also drinking Partying hard tomorrow for my post bday bash. Yah me!!! Gotta get a headstart tonight.

Current stats as of today:

125lbs. dropping nice and slow now
9.5%bodyfat I'm actually liking what I see (almost) of course there's always a million things I'd love to change (some boobs and cleavage would be a good start )
Right now, my main concern is just losing that last little bit of bodyfat and fluid around the bottom of the glutes and top of the thighs. Other than that, everything else is good And I'm still keeping my size.

My actual inches have changed very little, but my physique and bodyfat have improved.

Sleep: 5hr. of course. But I just had a 1 1/2hr. nap, cleaning a bit, then I'm going back to bed to hopefully get 8-9hr. Then gotta work for a few hours tomorrow. Finish scrubbing the house before my big night out, then maybe nap again.

I know I'm still not eating enough, or regularly. I've just been so busy lately. The good news is I'm constantly getting referrals and new clients cuz people are really noticing my results in the gym. So, me being in shape = more money.

 

[CLPgold]

I am still here. I've been so busy, and actually had somewhat of a social life lately. Sooooo, I haven't had time to log stats.

Eating and training has been going well. I'm still not eating as much or as regularly as could be, but am sitting at 125lb. and 9.3%bodyfat. A little over 4 weeks to go, so I'm not going to panic just yet.

I am allowing myself a little bit of a binge night tonight. It's that wonderful time of the month He he just in time too. I have to pick up the ex Friday night from the airport. He's down to visit his girls'. So, if he thinks (or should I say expects! jerk LMAO) that he's gonna have some fun with me, too bad for him. Nah na na na na.

My binge was: 2oz baked pork ribs, 5oz baked turkey, 3/4cp. Astro peach yogourt, 1pear, 1/2orange, 3-4cps raisins...I've lost track all in one meal . I've also chugged a tonne o water and feel huge and bloated.

I'm hoping by Friday to find some time to log. My training partner wants to start a new training regime Monday (again). I say: "WHY NOT!!!" Let's go for it.

 

[w8lifter]

You're lucky you stopped in to check....I was just gonna bump this!

 

[CLPgold]

OK, so here I am 3 weeks and 4 days out now. Nervous.

Current stats:

weight: 123lb
bodyfat: 9%

Everything is where I want it to be except my glutes and quads. My hamstrings are even making me happy finally. My goal is to actually drop the last 3lb by Friday to be at 120lb. Then I can fine tune what needs to be done.\

Thinking of changing my music. I'm still sticking with the Figure Comp. now. so I can maintain til the end of April for the Fitness Model and then blast away til Musclemania. I'm definitely going all out for that one!!! I haven't picked out a 2 piece yet. Gonna wait til the last week when my physique is closer to comp.

 

[CLPgold]

K, workouts are down to a 3 day split. 4 sets x 12reps if possible.

The training partner 'cheated' on me on Sunday. Oh my gosh, I was hurt LOL. He trained on Sunday without me. And Sunday is a REST day!!! He was excited to start the new program though, and well, I didn't get home til real early in the morning that day hehe... can't cut the booze gosh darn! The worst part? I had to watch him train cuz I was in the gym training clients. So yesterday I had to do chest, tris, back and bis all together. Oh well. It was all good.

Well...super hottie #2 that had been inquiring of me, finally asked for my # and we went on a date Saturday night!!! It ROCKED!!! HE ROCKS!!! Oh my gosh is he beautiful and built. He's made it up to the National level in bodybuilding etc. etc...

Things are going super well. He's thinking of coming to the comp. April 6th to watch. DAMN I hope so! He hopefully will get back into competing in the next few months. He's kind of eyeballing the Musclemania. He is deadly gorgeous and a super sweetheart. I hope he goes for the Musclemania!

So, that's my story lately.

Oh, and I've been drining like a fish. . 'Daddy' is in town for march break visiting the girls. Wherever he is, there's booze! And well, I can't say no to a beer. Muscle catabolism is the worst! But so far so good. I'm doing the Figure Comp so it's kinda OK. Beer is my ultimate cheat.

[CLPgold]

Thanks ballast.

Mmm super hottie called tonight. He's too sweet.

 

[elvn]

Hey CLP, good luck with everything for your comp!
If you have time, I was just wondering how you find your diet. I've looked at your stats and you are awesome and your training is stellar. YOu are very motivateing. I just wonder how you find your diet. Have you ever tried anything else or is this basically what you've always used? It's just that you use a lot of things others would shy away from like bars, fruit, dairy, beer, etc., precomp. Is there a certain point where you get really strict and eliminate certain foods or are you active enough that you need the extra carbs?

 

[Stacey]

HEY I FOUND YOU over here!!! How are you girl?????
Just wanted to say HI!!

 

[CLPgold]

BUMP

Hello!

Gosh darn I had computer problems. I just bought it in August and my printer and keyboard stopped functioning properly. Grrrr. But anyways, it's all good now.

10 days left!!! OMG! Well things are all good. Just stressing about my glutes a little, but I think they'll be OK.

I've been going back to the heavier weights, benching 135lb for 12reps x 4 sets etc....cardio 2x/day, eating has been clean but still kind of sporadic . Except for Saturday night...
Hell did I binge. I had a dining room table full of horrified people watch silently as I proceeded to eat everything on the table. Cheese, crackers, keilbassa, sushi, CAKE! In the end the only thing I heard was: "Damn that girl can eat cake". LMAO And proceeded to down another 5 beers on top of the 8 I'd already had.

Last night and today I've been craving protein. After work I finished off a bowl of ground venison fried up with egg whites and onions. Then made another 5 whole eggs, then...LOL had 2chicken breasts and 1pork chop. I've eaten a tonne of egg whites already, just downed a pork chop right now and I think I'll make myself another. I don't even want carbs, I just want meat!

OK I made myself 2 more pork chops and finished off the little bit of peanuts that was left. Yes I am going in to do 1hr. cardio tonight. Already did 30min. on empty stomach this morning.

YUMMI I love meat. I could have been a caveman in my previous life with one of those big Flinstone rib racks or something.

Stats:
weight: 122lb
bodyfat: well my upper body is at 7%, but glutes, hammies and quads are at 12%
The day is not over and I still have 10 more days yippee!!!

 

[Stacey]

Where are u???????????????????????

MAJOR BUMP!

 

[CLPgold]

Hey

I'm here!!!

Lean, never mean, and with no Figure Comp. routine. LMAO

I've been so busy with many new clients, family, a social life (particularly drinking my a$$ off ), and a couple of beautiful men that I did not have time to prepare. Plus I really have no clue as to what is involved, so I'm gonna sit this one out and watch.

BUT! I am doing the Fitness Model Search. I've put on solid muscle and leaned out. If I had a routine I'd love to do the Figure, but it's not happening. I'm super happy though with my 123lb and 8%bodyfat. I'm pretty lean.

I'm doing another Fitness Model at the end of April. Then the big Musclemania. I want to keep all my muscle and then some... hopin to put on a few more solid lbs in May.

My goal: 124-128lb of all out super shreddedness for Musclemania.

Keep in mind I have a very small frame and bone structure, so putting that on is costing me a lot of time in the gym and eating. Last year I only came in at 108.5lb so I've made huge gains in the last few months. I think it has a lot to do with the gorgeous, well built hotties in the gym who keep me motivated And the copious amounts of beer I drink provide fuel. Forget Creatine, use alcohol LMAO>

I will definitely get some pics up Sunday night or Monday. And I can't wait to finally meet w8 OMG I bet she is even cuter in person!

My keyboard is still on the fritz so I have to keep retyping and fixing stuff. Next week I'll call Compaq to deliver a new one.

 

[CLPgold]

Hey kids! If I can leave you with one very important message about fitness, health and bodybuilding...train hard and train natural!

Please don't succumb to using unessesary substances. It can be achieved naturally.

For the last few weeks I haven't even touched a protein powder. I eat good food, and drink lots of water (and beer tee hee). But seriously stay healthy. I avoid all stimulants, coffee included. NO fat burners EVER and no other strange things. No herbal diuretics etc. And never would I touch a more potent pharmaceutical. Hell, I don't even have Tylenol in my house! I don't even put aspartame or artificial crap into this body. It's not worth it. Eat what mother nature put here for us. Please! Especially to any youngersters out there. Follow your dreams, but always put health first.

I do however cycle creatine throughout the year in case you were wondering...

 

[w8lifter]

Good to hear from you CLP! I can't w8 to meet!

 

[Eggs]

Hey CLP, good to see you are alive and well. I was a bit worried when you didnt post for a while at "the other place". Anyhow, guess you had moved here!

Eggs
