figure competition prep. my daily journal


{taught indoor cycling today}

16 weeks out (from today)!

Since I’m not going to start my cut for another 4 weeks (or so) I’ve decided I’m going to pour my heart and soul into 3 areas over the next 4 weeks.

 1.) Coming up with a super clean eating plan for my cut. I’m going to cut way down on my intake of “healthy” processed foods like: protein bars, vegetable chips, dried fruit, and protein powder.

I’m not going to cut it all out completely. But, I’m going to cut way down!

I’m going to replace all the “health” junk with Whole Foods.

Instead of a protein bar I’ll have something like: a handful of nuts, a handful of blueberries, and 1/2 cup of fat free cottage cheese.

Instead of veggie chips I’ll have fresh vegetables.

Instead of protein powder I’ll have a few oz. of grilled chicken.

And so on……….

2.) Getting plenty of sleep! I’m going to start tracking when I go to bed and when I get up. Then, I’ll come up with some ideas on how to improve. 

Things like, Sunday meal prep, will really help!

3.) I really do feel like I work pretty hard in the gym. But, I want to focus even harder by making sure I always have a solid plan before I step foot in the gym, when I’m not with Scarlet, so I don’t waste any time!
