I have decided to start training for the Miss Iowa USA 2011 pageant, which will be heald October 23 and 24 in Ames, Iowa! I was 4th runner up in the 2010 pageant. I called future productions about 2 weeks ago and talked to Libby. I asked her what I could improve on, she said the only thing i really needed to work on was leaning out my muscles and getting my body in better shape.
Which brings me to talk about personal trainers. I am working with a guy named Brian Atteberry out of oklahoma. Yes it is far away from Iowa, but we do it over the computer. He says he has worked with other girls like me (like me I mean hyper muscular, meaning I gain muscle a lot faster than most) He says he has leaned out girls that are similar to my situation. I am doing his workouts and diets and so far I like them, I feel better about myself already. I wish, however, i could see over night results! But hey...who doesnt!? I usually have a hard time trusting trainers, I have worked with several in the past all promising they can lean me out, but it never happens. I always end up bulking up. Trainers in Iowa don't know a lot about pageant bodys, and if they do in Iowa I have YET to meet one!
Anyway Brian has me eating 5 small meals a day, cutting out almost ALL of my carbs and replacing them with protien and "fibrious veggies" ( i think its funny to repeat that), I also have whey protien drinks, oatmeal, peanut butter, jelly sugar free preserves, and brown rice. Its a rough diet coming from someone who eats like a child. aka. chicken fingers, tater tots, pizza, etc.
For workouts, this month I have 5 wight exercises which he will change in a month. I also am doing 30 mins of cardio a day to start with. I can obviously do more if I choose.
Brian works with a lot of girls who have great bodys! This year all four of the girls he trianed were in the top 10, one of them was 1st runner up to Miss USA. If you go to Miss USA website look up contestants : Oklahoma, Arkansas, Kansas, and Missouri I believe were his four girls he trianed! HOPEFULLY my body can look as great as theirs! Anyway that is all for now, I will keep you updated on my progress!!!
ps. sorry it has been awhile since i last blogged!
