"Off-Season"

Verse of the day: I am the LORD your God, Who teaches you what is best for you, Who directs you in the way you should go. -Isaiah 48:18

It's been a while since my last post... I recently placed fourth at the WNBF Pro American. This was a disappointing finish for me, but alas this is the game. I've not missed a workout since and my diet has been on point- I'm not one to give up at a disappointment. My next goal is to put on some muscle over all; bring up my upper chest and shoulders; and improve my conditioning. And I will  either compete in the 2017 Mr America (in July) or the 2017 WNBF World Champ (in November.)

I've tinkered around a bit with some different training splits. I hit everything twice per week and changed the rep scheme for each workout. This was using some "daily undulating periodization" principles. And while I think some aspects (mainly changing the rep schemes) are great, I find that training everything twice per week is not realistic for me.

I have just started back on a 5 day split: Monday- chest; Tuesday- back; Wednesday- legs; Thursday- arms; and Friday- shoulders. And I'm incorporating some "DUP" along with my normal stuff.

This year I just opened my own personal training studio and had my third son, so I'm BUSY. So realistically my goal is to post once a week, showing different workouts, techniques, theories and diet updates. I hope this is a help and encouragement to all those trying to achieve fitness goals... bodybuilding or not. BE STRONG.
