Contest Preparation Two Weeks Out.

October 23, 1010


I will start with posting the diet two weeks out of competition.

Meal One:

Protein shake 30gm

After meal one early morning cardio on the stair mill for 30 minutes.

Meal Two:

6 oz Ahi Tuna

1/2 cup rice

1 cup green vegetable brocolli or asparagus

Meal Three:

6 oz. Ahi Tuna

1 cup green vegetable brocolli or asparagus

Meal Four:

6 oz. Ahi Tuna

1/4 cup rice

Meal Five:

Protein shake 30gm

Weight train for 1 hour.

Meal Six :

6 oz Ahi Tuna

1 cup of green vegetable asparagus or brocolli.

At the end of the third week my eyes were opened drastically with bouts of hypoglycemia that were difficult to manage and still perform my role as a health care provider in a busy family practice. I found myself having trouble keeping up with the pace and thinking clearly which I could not allow to happen. In the best interest for my patients and practice I decided to let go the Western Regional Bodybuilding Fitness and Figure Show for now. It was a difficult decision after the hard training I had put in over months and of course with dieting. I have learned in the 15 year as a competitive bodybuilder there is always a next time.

I plan to compete in July 2011. Today, I planned the winter preparation with my trainers, who are the best in the State of Arizona. Craig Tinelle and Chris Thompson are very devoted trainers who strive to bring a person to their highest performance both mentally, physically and emotionally. They agreed with me to postpone competing at this time due to the heavy work load. In July, I plan to get coverage for my 3 week absence as it is impossible to work a busy job and training with dieting that strenuously.

All for now I will continue to post training blogs.
