10 days until the big day. I had a rough week last week. Working out twice a day doesn't cut it for me. Maybe I wouldn't mind if I didn't have to go to work as well. In addition to working out I had to practice my posing which seems like another workout. I really commend those girls who go through this over and over again and some have several shows in one year. I didn't have to do this much cardio for my last competition. I think I was driving my coach, Tony crazy last week. My muscles were looking flat and I was concerned about losing muscle with the increased cardio. I am just a bit paranoid about losing my hard earned muscle and I probably was finding an excuse to not do so much cardio.
I read some interesting information about how important visualization is when working out. I also read that you can visual yourself to lose weight. In the movie The Secret, this woman claimed that she visualized herself to be thin. The reality is not that she thought of herself to be thin and one day she woke up thin. What she actually did was visualize herself thin and started to make better food choices and eliminated junk food from her diet, she also started to go for walks after dinner etc.
There is tremendous power in your thoughts. Remember the old saying: "the body won't go, where the mind has not gone to first"! Most goals people make include some type of visualization. For the next 10 days, I am going to visualize myself on stage and getting that first place trophy!

Hi!
Thanks for this post! Visualization is something I struggle with. But in order to actualize anything, you have to see it first!
Thanks. :)
