Competition Prep - Week 15

I can't believe I'm 6 weeks out. SCARY. I've started some weekly posing lessons with Laurin Conlin who is BOSS. I obviously have no idea what I'm doing so I need all the help I can get! The hard part is I'm not stage lean yet so it's difficult attempting to pose and find a good look for my body as it's constantly changing from week to week. BUT I'm just going to do my best! :)

I'm also super excited to drive out to South Carolina at the end of the month and meet up with my good friend Hana Devore to watch her compete at the pro level and attend a posing clinic! She is such a friggin rock star and super humble/down to earth. She is good people yo. We'll be vlogging all our shenanigans fasho! It will be a good time.

This week I am at my parents' house in Wilmington, NC. I've been enjoying time with family, eating what I want and not letting prep get in the way of life... and progress has been awesome! That is the beauty of flexible dieting. It's sustainable and adhere-able(?)! :P Somehow my waist measurement decreased by half an inch in a week. Kinda weird, but I'm cool with it! Hope you all are having an awesome week!

*Low:High Ratio = Low macro days:High macro days. For example, Week 1 I had a higher macro day every 4 days.
**Cardio = The first number is the times per week. The second number is the amount of intervals. HIIT = high intensity interval training. SS = Steady state cardio (110-140BPM).
***NW = I have been advised not to weigh during this week due to my "time of the month" and the weight fluctuations that happen with it.
Also, I am posting half-week check in data only if changes were made.
