...you would think this is when I'd relax, but I have been SO busy lately!
It's been tough getting back into training regularly--my body is just very exhausted after what that competition prep has put it through! I'm trying to take it day by day, so I don't injure myself overdoing anything.
Those hours spent at the gym doing cardio have been replaced by hours on end spent by my computer--writing training programs, articles, and other material for my site and my personal training clients.
One of the articles I wrote is now up on T-Nation.com, and I'd LOVE to know what you guys think about it. The link to the article itself is below, and it will be up on this site shortly: http://www.t-nation.com/readTopic.do?id=1516819.
What's truly incredible about that article, is the controversy it caused! If you've got a minute, take the time to read over some of the posts underneath it! There is a whole debate going on over the definition of the term "athlete." While I CERTAINLY was NOT looking for any kind of recognition by writing the article, I absolutely did not think it would turn into a lesson in the English language, complete with definitions out of the Webster's Dictionary! lol...
What I WAS hoping to do, was to give some insight into the lives of figure girls as we get ready for our competitions. I know that some people understood it the way I meant it, and have gotten PLENTY of letters from them, thanking me for putting their thoughts in writing. THANKS TO ALL OF YOU for taking the time to let me know that I was able to capture our experiences and feelings as we step on stage.
Happy Holidays to you guys, and stay tuned for an updated website with a new member's area coming VERY soon!
Lots of love and hugs,
