6 days to go and directics are working!
6 days to go. Went in this morning and did 30 mins cardio split between the stair climber and treadmill. I have finished training clients and work for the rest of the week to focus on competition. I have set cardio and weight routine until friday and all the little things that go into competiton, like hair, nails, skin appointments etc.
Today I have drank 10 litres of water and started my potassium and dandelion root, the water has begun and I have been a little light headed at times due to the potassium, it can lower your blood pressure. Made it through the day though and felt a little tired.
The PUMP class tonight was a good one, we only have 2 classes left before I change the routine, so the ladies worked hard tonight on their weights. Their standing military shoulder presses were superb tonight, none of them giving up. Poor Rebekah spent a whole set trying to tie her hair up, so we made her do her extra set at the end and the class gave her a big clap at the end! It was nice to see they all support each other.
Tomorrow is cardio for 30 mins in the morning and then weights in the afternoon with calves. The routine is designed for the upper body and its intended to push water out of my muscles and to deplete my glycogen stores so that by the end of the week I am flat and tired, but when I eat my Saturday night meal, I will fill up those muscles with the carbs and glycogen and look full and pumped, but ‘dry as a bone’ (Simon’s terms) for the Sunday. So you will have to keep reading to see how I am doing.
