NKY18WEEKS- BRING. IT. ON.

Ladies & gentlemen- it's been a while so I owe you some updates! The Oxygen Magazine came out Oct 4th and it's been the experience of a lifetime! For legality, Kelly Meade & I weren't told we had the cover shot 'til 3 days prior! WHAT AN INCREDIBLE SURPRISE! The support from my friends & family has been awesome! A friend FB'ed me today saying she saw it in PARIS! Thanks to everyone who bought the issue so far!(my mom & dad had the Centerville area cleaned out for a week lol.) "Off the Couch" is a quarterly special edition so it should be out through January- please check it out!

I've also been invited to join Team Bombshell- a highly credited international fitness, figure & bikini competition squad! They are doing my prep for the Northern KY March 24 and I may also pick up the Arnold Classic March 4th.

Due to the confidentiality contract (they mean business!), I cannot discuss specifics of my diet/training. But I WILL tell you- these women KNOW what they're doing! My nutrition is crazy clean & I actually LOVE the structure. My monthly training splits are itemized down to each minute of cardio. I eat smaller portions every 2 hours for 6 meals which contain 7 forms of lean protein, 5 different complex carbs, 4 forms of essential fats, 5 different veggies & 26 supplements daily. I've completely cut wheat, dairy, alcohol, sugar (this includes artificial sweeteners-bye bye, crystal light & diet soda. Never thought I'd survive that but I notice cleaner energy!) I do use limited Stevia in my oats/coffee. No more condiments/salt in cooking except a little lemon juice/Mrs. Dash. I've also cut nuts, fruit & protein powders (casein/ almond butter are my crack cocaine!) I get all nutrition whole food & eat everything as raw as possible to preserve the nutrients. I make my raw egg whites into a protein shake for breakfast, you say E. coli- I say delicious. ( pshhh, I don't scare easy- plus with pasteurization, the whites are safer raw) I really struggled with sweets & eliminating sugar has balanced my insulin levels so I don't get cravings- it's much easier to make wise choices.

BREAKFAST OF CHAMPIONS. iced black coffee, egg white smoothie, oats & AM supplements. yum-pills, my favorite! :o)



3 weeks into my new training split & I'm STILL getting my ass handed to me daily (my legs gave out day #1 during my 2nd super set & I fell in front of the entire gym.) There's a REASON Bombshell athletes look incredible, these women train insane- and are know for the trademark "Bombshell Booty!" I still physically struggle to complete each split! TONS of plyometrics- I have been sore after EVERY lift! BUT I've made more progress in my legs in the last 3 weeks than I have in months so it just keeps me hungry for more! I am SO excited to see how these drastic changes impact my progress the next 18 weeks. Stay in touch- Thanks for following! Happy training <3
