Some more:

1) Trophy time
2) Trophy time2
3) Freaky, freaky abs. Took that picture lying on my bed the night before the show. Yikes!
4) Me, after prejudging, face scrubbed and lotioned, soooo happy because I made it through prejudging alive. I thought my legs were shaking so much the first 2 piece round, that I would end up on the judging table! LOL

I did not win the overall -- but the judges told me later it was a 4-3 vote on the winner. They made us quarter turn forever. The girl that did win overall was fuller than me (she was very sweet), but not as low in bodyfat. She definitely had fuller hamstrings/calves. For some reason at this show they determined I was 5'4.5" -- I keep getting taller and taller LOL! -- and put me in B class. The overall winner was from A class. Anyway, I was proud and got a first place trophy and a rose from a cute little girl!

I'll post what pics we took tomorrow and tell you guys more about the experience. I had some nice pics done at the show but my scanner doesn't work. Anyway, I'll upload the pics Brian, Jr. and I took in the morning.

Cool beans! Oh, and I had chicken quesadillas, a salad and some Peanut M&Ms afterwards.

Tomorrow, it's back to my eating plan for the Excalibur. Luckily, my carbs are upped to 180 until Friday. Yippee!! Pam also said I could take all day tomorrow off. Yippee again!!

Thanks again for all the support! I really appreciate you guys!

Congrats!!!

Congratulations Hibby!

Great Job! :nosthumbs

How did you like the whole experience? Did you think it was fun?

How did everything go with your carb deplete and load, Pro Tan, etc..

Any changes for the next show, or are you doing to do everything the same again?

We're all really proud of you!

Thanks dbflgirl!!

Hi EME! Thank you, thank you for the protan advice. After you said that to me earlier, I started getting Brian to help with the home sponge on tanning. We ended up putting on about 5 more coats, and I even woke up at 3:00am the night of the show and did another coat! LOL I decided you were right and I needed to be darker.

The color turned out fantastic and I was pleased.

The experience was a blast. I was so nervous before the first two piece prejudging! My leggies were shaking like crazy, and that's no fun in 5" heels! :p After that, however, I was calm as can be. I did fine in the one piece round and at the night show. The MC was heckling me in the night show, going on about my 13 brothers and sisters and me being the prettiest of them all. I could hear little B yelling "Go Mom!!" and Big B yelling "Go Diane" and "She was the last of the litter too!"

They made me laugh.

Anyway, it was fun, fun. The judges critique afterwards was great also. They told me I had nice delts, but I need to bring them out even more, bring out the lats, bring out the hammies and calves. I can't do that before August 27th (LOL), but I'll definitely work on all of that really hard for next year's show.

Thanks for all the support!

hibiscus09 · 08-08-2005, 11:53 PM

Thanks so much everyone. Only one more contest to go, then I'm taking a sabbatical. LOL

Okie dokie -- I was a strong chick today doing quads/calves. Oh, and of course, did the 60 minutes prebreakfast cardio thing. :p

Squat Machine

12 reps X 140lbs
10 reps X 180lbs
8 reps X 230lbs
6 reps X 270lbs
2 reps X 320lbs *PB but I only got out 2 reps. LOL I'll work on that!

Step Ups

12 reps each leg holding 20lb dumbbells
10 reps each leg holding 25lb dbs
8 reps each leg holding 30lb dbs
6 reps each leg holding 35lb dbs

Seated Calves

12 reps X 115lbs
10 reps X 140lbs
8 reps X 150lbs
6 reps X 150lbs

Hack Squats with feet close together

12 reps X 140lbs
10 reps X 180lbs
8 reps X 220lbs
6 reps X 220lbs *Grrrrrr -- forgot to change the weight! LOL
6 reps X 240lbs *had to do one more set to repent for my dufusness.

Drop Sets Extensions

8 reps X 100lbs, 8 reps X 80lbs, 6 reps X 60lbs, 6 reps X 50lbs, 6 reps X 40lbs
8 reps X 100lbs, 6 rps X 80lbs, 6 reps X 60lbs, 6 reps X 50lbs, 6 reps X 40lbs

Angled Calves

12 reps X 115lbs
10 reps X 140lbs
8 reps X 165lbs
8 reps X 175lbs

I kind of liked that 12, 10 8, 6 rep range. I was stronger. I didn't do afternoon cardio. I don't like doing that on quad day and I only have 5 to do each week, so I skipped it today.
