The Countdown Begins … Fit Feminista 20 Week Challenge

 

Hola Feministas,

Ok so, I’ve done a lot of experimenting with clean eating and strength training and my weight has fluctuated along the way. But TODAY is really, no I mean, truly the day. I’ve calculated the weeks left and there’s no more dipping my toe in to see what it’s like. It is officially time for me to jump in, head first! I go back to teaching in September so if I want to take advantage of my flexible schedule and check competing off my bucket list — I have to start N.O.W!

 I’m unsure of when my first competition will be. I’ve considered the WBFF’s in August but that’s a huge stage to compete on for a first-timer.

Regardless, of whether I compete at the WBFF or a smaller fitness competition shortly thereafter I am going to start training with AUGUST 24 as my goal!

Here’s some approximate numbers of where I need to be in order to be in bikini model shape:

Weight Goal: 118 lbs% Body Fat:  12%
Fat Weight: 14 lbs.Lean Weight: 104 lbs.

So basically, I need to drop 25 lbs., drop 19% of my body fat (31 lbs) of fat and then add on about 6 lbs. of muscle. Seems tough but I know I can do it!

I start TODAY (Monday, April 9) – stay tuned for regular updates and pics of my progress!

 

 

 

 

fit feminista ~ week 3 check-in

Hello Lovelies,

On February 20, I began my fit feminista plan. Here’s a quick check-in of how I’m doing …

My start weight was 140 lbs because I binged the weekend before starting!

Week 1 (Feb 20 – Feb 26)
End of the Week Weigh In: 138 lbs

I ate SUPER CLEAN this week and made it to the gym three times and did a few short workouts @ home.

Things I’m Still Trying to Improve Upon 
- protein shake as soon as I wake up
- more water

Week 2 (Feb 27 – March 4) 
End of the Week Weigh In:  135 lbs

I did well with my clean eating this week but only made it to the gym a couple times. I went pretty hard on legs and glutes this week but ignored my upper body.

Things I’m Still Trying to Improve Upon 
- protein shake as soon as I wake up
- more water

 

Week 3 (March 5 – March 11)
End of the Week Weigh In:  133 lbs

Not a good week! I missed a lot of meals, had mcdonalds once and didn’t go to the gym. I did manage to complete one Bodyrock.tv workout and a Zuzana light workout everyday from Thursday to Sunday.

Things I’m Still Trying to Improve Upon 
- protein shake as soon as I wake up
- more water
- eating 5 small meals a day
- staying consistent with workouts and following THE PLAN

I’ll post an updated photo @ the end of the week.

 

ttyl!
