I like to split it up coming closer to the week of competition as well so I will have morning and evening cardio. When trying to cut down do you prefer to use HIIT or just normal cardio?
I try and keep my diet clean all year round and free of any soft drinks and alcohol processed meats I’ve picked these because this is what I need to work on for my body.
I often watch clips and DVDs from the Olympia and other Pro comps that upload their competitions online. “These girls are amazing!” I thought to myself. I started watching Olympia and the Arnolds on YouTube and saw that they had a bikini section. After seeing the massive difference a clean and calorie/carb controlled diet made to my body, I don’t think I could ever go back to eating the way I used to.
It was addictive! The biggest adjustment though was my diet. Since I had no other females to work out with I would work out with Chris just doing what he did with a fraction of the weight. I first started weight training when I wanted to tone up a bit for the Australian Swimsuit Calendar shoot I had coming up so I started going to the gym with my partner.
I have always been competitive in sports growing up but after high school I began glamour modelling. How did you get started with bodybuilding?
