My Journey to the Pro stage....after the fourth baby

The greatest tragedy of man is never realizing or reaching his full potential~"Dont TALK about it,BE about it!"











WELCOME to my blogspot! I am utilizing this space as a journal of sorts,where my workouts as well as random thoughts are posted....



Now that I have a few good Pro shows under my belt,I am in "off season" until 2013,due to the VERY unexpected news of my 4th child!! In the meantime, I will be keeping a journal of how a pro athlete reclaims her pre-baby body and juggles fitness and family. I am planning a Pro show just a few months after the baby arrives, as well as gearing up to hit new PR's for 5k's,half and full marathons! My ultimate goal is to simply get better with age....(and hopefully snag an IFBB pro card and break 19 min in a 5k in the process)so come follow me on my crazy journey to the Pro-Stage and Beyond... after a fourth child!!Feel free to leave any comments or advice!

weighted plyos and cardio

got in 3.5 miles of FMC (fasted morning cardio) and then took all the kids to the gym with me.

cycle 1
box jumps
blurpies
weighted ski lunge
lateral sprints
cycle 2
weighted lateral box jump overs
mountain climbers
weighted high knees
gazelle bounds
cycle 3
weighted jump lunge
weighted sumo squat with jump
jump tucks
jump rope
REPEAT 3X..
finished off with
4x12 dead leg lifts
4x24 alternating leg press jumps with press hold 30 seconds
4x15 hip abd
4x15 hip add
3x15 single leg extension with foot in external rotation

then got in a quick 30 minutes and got another 3.5 miles in.
legs felt like jello the entire time.
love it!!!!!

planning on trying to get in the pool sometime this week,gotta find my sea legs again!!!!
also going to try to start biking next week and adding in BRICK sessions.
i want to get top 5 in AG at this tri,so im going to *try* to train/prepare the best i can for this!!
and try is the operative word here-i can plan all i want to,but i have to allow room in my training for "plan b",or even "plan c".........

anyways,hope all are having a great day!
