So, it has been seven years since I have blogged. Where does
the time go? A lot has happened since my last entry which was 4 days out from
my first bodybuilding competition. With that being said, I figured it would be
best to have my first return entry serve as a “reintroduction” of sorts.
Since my last entry I have earned several more
certifications, expanding my knowledge on health and fitness which I will be sharing
in this blog. In addition, my passion and purpose for healthy living and
empowering others through fitness has grown.
Also in the past 7 years I have done many competitions, some
locally, but mostly in other states. In 2019, I finally earned my pro-card
which was a goal I set after I competed the first time. You could say the
“competition bug” bit me. I am now recognized as a Pro-Figure athlete, and
since earning my pro-card, I have done one Pro Show.
I have learned so much from competing over the years,
everything from different training splits, proper nutrition, reverse dieting,
recognizing healthy and unhealthy relationships with food, not to mention the
mental and emotional effects competing can take on your self esteem. All of
this and so much more will be discussed, especially as I approach my return to
the stage once Covid isn’t as much of a thing.
But for now, it’s just great to be back in this space.
