Hmm... I love oh yeah bars! or USN protein bars. Although I wouldn't have them whilst dieting for a show! But in the off season - YUM.

Thanks chick! I will try my best! Thankfully its not until late 2009 so I have ages to prepare.. I always have the best intention to keep a log of my training but when you get into the swing of the dieting and training, and with working and studying I end up having little time for anything...

I just get on with it.. I think men respect you more in the gym when you just get on with it and don't mess about in the free weights area. Why not train with her until she's a bit more confident? teach her how to spot you etc.. show her some exercises.

To be honest I just enjoyed weight training and training heavy - I prefered the training to anything else i'd done before (in terms of sports etc)... It was only about 4 years down the line I thought "hmm I could give this competition lark a go"... once I got my head around the crazy diet and...

I read Bodyfitness, Muscle and Fitness and Flex. Not sure if you get bodyfitness in the states but it's a good magazine, and has some good competition coverage.

Thanks mate! :) Ah yeah i've seen loads of pictures now lol. Can't believe how tight I came in looking. I was so worried about it! I only really believe it when I see the photo's to be honest.

Thanks very much everyone. I have no idea how to put up pictures sorry! But pictures are on Home Page and i'm the first one in the gallery pic's!

Oh I didn't know they were coming out again. They told me in MAC that might happen but I wasn't sure.. ah i'm glad! thanks for that! lol.

Oh incidently superqt4u2nv, not sure you get this in the states - but the brand new limited edition mineralize blushers from MAC are awesome! they're a pain to get hold of in the UK - as they're sold out everywhere, even in London. But I did my best hunting and found one, and I love it ;)

Hey, I know what thats like.... I'm a total make up fanatic. I worked out the other day that my make up collection - which is mostly MAC, Dior, Estee Lauder, Chanel, Urban Decay and Benefit.. is probably worth about £1500. That's about $3000.. how sad is that!!!!!!!! It's one of those things...

Interesting ideas everyone! thanks :) I'll let you know how my glutes shape up ha! No butt blasters in the uk tho! they are few and far between... think of all the gyms i've trained in i've seen one once. Funny, cos when I was training in California they have them in every gym! It's such a...

Front squats are a bit of a killer.. have to watch my knees, but yes certainly difficult! Trained my glutes hard tonight though... my cardio afterwards was hardwork lol Gonna see my coach on Friday and get her to give me some direction. My bum is just too small compared to the rest of me...

I must admit I have tried most of those... I think maybe I just need to concentrate on the muscle group more.. I'll give the reverse smith lunges a go though! Cheers :)

Hey everyone, What are your top glute exercises? I could do with something new to spice up my glute training!! Any specific isolation exercises that you girls find that really work!?

Re: 2008 Competition Preparation Hey Tatyana Are you still gonna do the next qualifier!? I'm dieting hard myself.. it's going well so far. Will see how I feel in a few more weeks lol. Good luck with the qualifier if you do it!
