Hey Ladies!

Just wanted to give you an update. I went to the Arnold last week and had a FABULOUS time...but I was talked into doing a contest two weeks early in Kentucky! I met Quadsweep's sister who is working with Bev Int who is sponsoring the show...who is AMAZING I might add...I just kept picturing her on that bench in her avatar! Very cool to meet these people up close...Met SuperQT and BIG MAN and the guy who wears the kilt :) She (Quadsweep's sister) seemed to think I was ready to do the show and at least do it for the experience....then I started reading about the contest...yeah, there are going to be BIG SCREENS THERE!!!!!! I may throw up! However, the nervous anticipation is good. It is helping to keep me motivated for my show April 1st. I continue to work with my trainer once a week on posing and diet. Continue to wake at 4 am and work on the routine, coming along slowly but getting there. Here are updated pics, go to 4 weeks out (now 1 1/2 weeks!!!!!! can't believe it)!!!!!!

Thanks so much!

Can't wait to just start logging progress on lifts....eating nice juicy pizzas :), etc.!
 
I can't think of a better experience for you girl! SERIOUSLY you are soooo ready. All the work & prep is basically completed. The one part you haven't tested out is the stage & presentation thing. I am soooooo happy w/ where you are right now as far as posing and all. I knew you had a fantastic base to work w/ and the support (nsashbl you are amazing --- do you have a brother perhaps? ;c) ) and the dedication is undeniable. The only thing left is just to get past that distraction we call "getting on stage for the first time". And if you have QS there you know you are among friends. The Bev people are top notch!

Now its all about you! The only thing you need to know on stage is that all those people paid money to see you and you are there to show them what an amazing collection of genetic, dedication, work & love looks like! And dont' forget to let them know how friggen lucky they are to see you up there. :)

If I can figure out some way to get over to KY I will. I checked it on mapquest & about a 7 hr drive from here. But I'll keep looking at it as my post -arnold schedule develops.

She's a genetic freak. 15 years ago before I was one big injury I didn't train like she's training. I have thrown up like a handfull of times in my life. She does it almost every workout. Leaves her breath smelling very nice....
 
Are you guys including the current avatar pic pose in the 60 sec / 90 sec routine? I LOVE THAT POSE ON HER!
 
Hey Everyone!

Sassy and everyone...Bunny, SuperQT, tps...your support is amazing to me. Sassy don't be crazy now...driving 7 hours! The pose in my avatar is something my trainer came up with. I had Russ Testo design my routine which I have been practicing over and over again...doesn't include that pose, but would like to add it in there, maybe replace another pose. My concern is the routine includes alot of the front of me and I think my back and glutes have really become my strength. MEeting with my trainer on Sunday so hopefully we can change the routine a bit. Very nervous about being on stage, but Ikeep telling myself that is when all of the endless hours of waking up at 4 and being at the gym for three hours sometimes (on those days I have to get chest, bis, calves, abs and cardio in...like tonight) is WORTH IT! Cannot tell you how much everyone's support means :) It's true my husband is the most patient and supportive person I have ever known. He inspired me to do this contest and has been a constant support through it all! I am LUCKY!!!! Sassy....he has a brother, but nothing like him...but I have an ULTRA CUTE and ULTRA RIPPED friend of his..... :) If you are ever in the area....:)

Thanks Everyone! Will Keep you posted!

Actually I've seen that pose on a lot of girls and it really takes an amazing back to do it. I really like it on you! Definitely use your free pose time to your advantage! I don't know how your routine looks but it might be fun if you start out in the center of the stage w/ that rear relaxed pose (just standing there, no pose --- your delts are POPPING!) and then start w/ whatever the routine is. Its very striking w/o even hitting a pose.


RE: cute frield -- lol let me cut some first .... (ref: arnold pic.... egad.)

OK looks like I'm gonna take a stab at the Masters Nationals in July --15 weeks-ish.

Sassy, the end of her routine she's standing back to the crowd. Arms high, with legs and arms forming an X. Then she slides down to a chinese split and goes from the X to a rear double bi. I will email a link to russ doing the 90 second routine. Were gonna cut it up a bit and simplify it. Check your email in a few....

Find the exact date of your comp. July 15 is our reception/party. If it's after we'll be there for sure.
 
OMG chinese split huh? Wow! I think I need to figure out a way to make that drive....

Masters Natls - July 21-22 - Pittsburgh.

There's one I got a flier for that is near my parents' condo that might be interestign but I can't find the date. They only stay there in the winter & I got the key :evil: - I'm sure they'd love to have their white tile bathroom covered in protan....

And as I look ... wow the Southern States is early this year. July 14-15. This damn show has been my nemesis for 5 yrs.... We'll see about that. Its pushign it for the Masters Nat'ls.

Damn I think I gotta toss the whole figure thing right now....

ok sorry my mind is rambling....


Chinese splits huh? :)
 
HOT DAMN!! Woman you are amazing looking!! *bows down*

You will Rock them at your show!! And please pics of the Chinese split!! pretty please??
 
The chinese splits may not happen now. She tweaked a groin muscle while stretching yesterday. So worse case scenario, she does that Egyption pose. Were gonna work on it this weekend......

Our leg workouts have been running pretty long so we have not been stretching enough lately. Not a good thing.
 
Ugh. Be so careful w/ that. I actually did something similar about 2 weeks out from my first show - had a most muscular pose from the knee that pushed out into a full split. And then I was getting a little cocky w/ the split during a training session and basically over-rotated the split. No more split.
 
Hey Ladies!

Guess I am 5 days out now! Can't hardly wait!!!!!! Have had the BEST last couple of days recently...First went to my trainer on Sunday am to do my routine and her first words were "AWESOME"....THIS MADE ME SOOOOOO HAPPY!!!!!!!! As you may have recalled I payed someone to make me a routine and although it was REALLY GOOD....it was REALLY FAST...so I had to modify it in my slow way...I am a VERY SLOW learner when it comes to dancing and a bit uncoordinated so i was VERY unsure of the posing part...but she liked it !!!! YEAH!!!! Then my AWESOME HUSBAND gave me the nicest most supportive card this am....then came to work and had a big bunch of flowers on my desk from a coworker wishing me good luck this weekend. I cannot tell you HOW MUCH ALL OF THIS MEANS TO ME. I dont think I have ever been so overwhelmed with support in my entire life. I am TRULY blessed to have all of you, my husband, my trainer, and my friends...I keep telling Jeff....I AM LUCKY!!!!!

Sassy...I know it is a long drive, would LOVE to see you :)

HEre are the rest of the pics if you are interested

Here's a quicktime clip from yesterday. We are doing minor changes daily....

Hey Ladies!

Getting VERY EXCITED about Saturday, can hardly believe the day is almost here! Getting protanned tonight by nsashbl...should be good for a laugh! I am working with Quadsweep's sister for this show...so I am planning on doing a potassium load. One potassium every other hour today (wed), tomorrow one every hour, friday two every hour and same for sat. Water went like this...sun, mon, tues 1.5 gallons, wed 1 gallon and tomorrow .5 gallons and less than .5 gallons on Friday...saturday, no water.

The thing that sucks...is I have mananaged to escape all of my students germs until now...I have a very sore throat and probably a slight fever. Wondering if I can take sudafed...or will this mess everything up?

Anyway...will let you know how I look with protan :)

HT
 
HT one tip with the pro tan DO NOT put it on your face. Day of the show use NW45 from MAC in there heavy coverage formula forget what it is called but it blends perfect with protan.

Also I watched that video and was so disappointed that it was not HT. Make sure you get a video of your routine I really want to see it. You look fantastic girl and your going to kick some serious ass. I hope you shake the bug.
 
Double props on the dont-use-protan-on-your-face comment. The stuff starts cracking after you sweat on it. Sux.

You might throw in some zinc loszenges or Zicam to help w/ the throat. Load vit C. Stay away from sick people.

Very excited for you.

Check your PMs...
 
LMAO @ the dog! When I'd practice my routines in the house, my cat would come out to see what the hell was going on, make big eyes, big tail and then take off. BB & kitties don't go together so well I guess....

Damn I'm sooo excited to see the show. (Leaving in about 7 hrs...! ) All the poses look fantastic! All of them!

A comment - on the stuff in the beginning w/ the 1 leg stepped back - maybe don't step back so far --keep the leg a little closer in. I dunno maybe an aesthetic feeling but that might be my suggestion. Watch the leanign back a bit at the last part and I'd probably slow down the showing of the side chest pose a little -- less left / right motion or not as fast.

Anyway -- bringing my camera, laptop, hell how about the little camera photo printer & my video cam while I"m at it :)
 
Well...it's 6 am, about to leave for school. HAve to tell everyone, I did not sleep one wink last night...SO excited! Can't beleive Sassy is making the trip...mans SOOO much. Promise to let everyone know right away how I did...what sucks is no pizza, no pop after the show since I have the other show in two weeks....all worth it though...told Jeff maybe a glass of merlot to celebrate being halfway done :)

Will talk to you soon! :)
HT
 
Tan looks goooood!!! :google: Goes great with your hair.

Your shoulder/tris are just beautiful, you've worked so hard, go kick ass! You have a lot to be proud of, now try to enjoy it as much as you can!
 
HT love the routine you look great and are going to do awesome. Remeber when you are on stage own it go out there like you already won the competition.
 
OMG you look great! I'm so excited for you! Hey try some zycam for the cold if ya can...it is zinc but it will either stop it or make it more bearable and very short! Good luck to you!!
