My goal is to walk on stage at 105-108lbs, for a bikini competition the bodyfat could be anywhere from 10-15%...it depends on your body type. Because bikini competitors are not supposed to be super lean or shredded, I decided that a good goal for me was 10%...and see how I look, I also have the chance to compete in the Fitness Model category, for this one I would need a bit more of muscle definition, so I will see how I look and decide what category fits me better.
I know fats and figures are important, but honestly it is all about how you look because everyone's bodies are different! It is very important to not make it your obsession..Yes training for something like this takes time and planning. But, it should not consume your entire life..Plan your meals ahead of time and take everything with you. This is a big commitment because it has to be a part of your life but you also need to do your normal every day activities.
Right now I am working-out with my husband every morning lifting heavy 5 days a week, taking 2 days off and I am doing my Zumba 1 hour night class once a week, plus 2 to 3 times biking or running with my kids in the evenings. These activities give me the opportunity to spend quality of time with my family and make them part of my challenge.
One thing that gets me through my busy days is packing my meals a head of time, that way I also stick with my diet plan and doesn’t give the option to start craving things that I am not allowed to have.
See you all Soon!
