I am a wife and mother of 3 beautiful children. I'm a cytotechnologist and I would like to become a professional figure athlete. My goal for 2009 is compete in both figure and bodybuilding competitions and to eventually get a pro card and get endorsed by a supplement company.

Squats, squats, and more squats

I only could workout for an hour this morning at the gym. So, I didn't do everything I wanted to do. Today I trained legs. Here is my leg workout:

*5 minute pre-workout stretch
*5 minute warm-up treadmill walk
*unassisted barbell squats--5 sets
*unassisted front barbell squats--5 sets
*barbell stiff-legged deadlifts-3 sets
*standing dumbbell calve raises--3 sets
*reverse calve raises--3 sets
*leg extensions--4 sets
*leg curls---4 sets

I also stretched (deep long stretches) in between sets. I will do cardio later on today.

Currently, I'm staggering my calories so that I will constantly fool my body and metabolism. I take in my highest amount of calories on Monday and decrease the amount of calories on a dialy basis from there. Saturday and Sunday are my very low carb days.

Well, have a great day.
