So, last August, I competed in my very first INFB Bodybuilding competition where I took 2nd place. It was an awesome experience and I learned a lot. However, after the competition, instead of maintaining my weight and getting prepared for another competition, I went back to very old habits and a year later, I gained 20lbs!!! (I know WTH) Then, I lost some of it, then gained it back, then lost it again, had surgery where they removed 5 tumors from my stomach and now I'm back at it!!  One thing I've learned from my past is the first step to getting back on track and knowing what you did wrong. Here's what I've done wrong this past year: Eating poorly Not doing a lot of fat burn cardio Not getting enough sleep Increased stress Snacking on chocolate at night (Eating poorly) Did I mention eating POORLY!!!!! So as you can see, I pretty much narrowed down my issue to eating poorly lol. I love food, especially the food that is bad for me lol. And I have a really ba

Happy Tuesday Xtremers!! I have a lot of clients that come to me asking me why they aren't seeing results. They tell me, I've been working out, eating good and I have lost a pound! Well I wanted to share with you my list of common reasons why you may not be seeing results. 1. Poor Preparation . Have you made a plan on how you are going to achieve your goals or are you just going  in and winging it each day? A goal without a plan is just a wish. Remember that.  2. Not drinking enough water . My golden rule for my clients is to get a least half your body weight in ounces of water a day minimum. (Example: You weigh 150lbs, you should get 75oz. which is a little over 9 cups of water a day --8oz = 1 cup) 3. Consuming too many liquid calories . For example, I love juice, more than soda. However did you know the serving size for a glass of orange juice is only 4oz which is about 60 calories?? I know I drink way more than that in a sitting. Imagine if we examined soda, wine, be
