Hello guyz
This morning same fasted routine
And check-in : 59,9kg fasted but no toilets this morning so the weight is not very accurate.
Many things to say for today.
Well… I woke up stage ready.
Two refeed days today and tomorrow mandatory, cause the best peak week was the seminary in Germany in fact…😂
But I am 8 weeks out. So we don’t know what we gonna do 😅
We gonna keep the exact same routine and refeed when necessary but we will not touch anything at all, it’s very risky.
It was a six weeks prep. And done.
Attached the pictures!!
I workout hams today, and ofc high energy, increasing Performance still, I will share with you my refeed for today and tomorrow 🥰
I am still not hungry, and I have never been. Everything is so weird, but I am not gonna complain!
I will watch tonight if I can jump into a show in few days somewhere 😂

Hello guys
Well, the travel of yesterday killed me, and I was too shredded already. Today I am flat so my coach said that I do not workout and cardio cause the seminar went from 10am to 7pm do I am exhausted.
I packed my food, prepare my meals once at the hotel at 9pm and tomorrow early I leave Germany.
It was nice and super great and also thanks to tbjp for sponsoring the event.
Everyone was suprised of the quality of the goodie bags 🥲🥹
Speaking about my prep. Never again a seminar on prep. I am clearly not designed to be someone who can move or walk a lot.
I became so shredded and so flat at same time, I honestly don’t know how it gonna be on mondau check-in cause we are just 8 weeks out but I am ready, and upper is way too much so thinking about stopping again workouts on upper.
He says he will potentially cumulate few followed refeed days after monday.
Have a great night

Hello guyz
Same fasted routine this morning
Currently doing my fasted cardio, I am thinking of doing only 30min on the treadmill and check my steps along the day to see if I exceed the number I usually do.
In average the app on my phone has tracked btw 9000 and 10k steps a day (cardio included) so it’s about 7000 steps on the treadmille for 1h and 3000 steps on a normal day. As today will be a travel day, I need to keep this expenditure consistent; particularly with the feedback I have received from my coach yesterday before sleep.
He asked me what was my opinion on the “weeks out” I am looking like right now.
And I have answered 10days/ and him 2 weeks out / and my husband who is also my trainer and saw me with different stage conditions answered 2 weeks out.
Fun fact is that Tyler Manion when I was in Pittsburgh Pro 2022, gave me the feedback that we nailed the condition, just I needed to change my bikini bottom and bring a tad more upper gluteus.
So I have watched my past check-ins to see how I was looking like at 2 weeks out from Pittsburgh Pro and how I was looking like at the start of the peak week (condition wise).
2 weeks out I was at 60,2kg (yesterday 60,4kg)
Peak week start I was at 57,4kg.
But because Pittsburgh Pro was right after Arnold Ohio were I was over muscular and over conditionned (they put me last place), the shape at that moment was looking blurry cause we did tried to soften and flatten the look, and it’s so much less beautiful than just stopping the cut, the skin aspect is different, the way the muscles stand out is different, and picture to picture or video to video next to each other, well, the yesterday look is much much better, and I had a long growth season in 2023 too, to build up that upper glutes.
So yes, we are 8 weeks out, but I am at 2 weeks out shape wise.
The strategy will be to adapt at each check-in from now on, and we are agree (the three of us, cause my coach lives in Portugal so he needs the eye of my husband, and my husb is also my trainer), that we gonna stop being afraid of refeeds days if the weights drop to much.
We have to bring slowly the conditioning and keep it very very progressive for the next six weeks and be very careful.
Cause at the moment I am dry, this is too late. Metabolism get crazy, muscles insertions are impossible to hide (except with junk food), and the more you gives junk food more the weight is dropping but the skin aspect and nice muscles look disappear.
This is good because to cut I never suffer, food remains high still compared to average, cardio is chill too (walk) and performance at the gym remains unchanged most of the time. But to peak correctly this body it’s a nightmare, but 8 years together with my coach so we are learning the process together, I am not an easy case to deal with.
Or I am shredded to the bone, or I am watery after filling up.
Goal for this year is really to keep a clean look for the condition.
Next check-in will be after the seminar on Monday.
When my cardio will be over, I gonna shower, put a hair mask on for the travel, go to the train station, and catch my train for Stuttgart.
Once there, I will drop off my luggages to the hotel and go workout uppder body straight.
Then physiotherapist and then I will see how much steps I have done and ajust with adding my extra 30min walk or less, depending on what’s necessary.
I am super super happy to do this 3rd edition of Germany Posing Seminar 🫶🏼
It will be a looong day tomorrow, from 11 am to 4pm with the girls in group, then I will have three individual face to face posing lessons on top of this after the seminar, and then I will need to train glutes and calves and do my cardio too.
I think i gonna do my 1h walk fasted in the morning cause it will be too late otherwise and I will accumulate a lot of fatigue.
Sunday I will leave Germany around 10am and come back home around 3pm, rest day and no posing lessons, so I will rest rest rest.
Travels are making me happy but majority of the time, in prep, this is conterproductive for me, as my work is wayyy too sedentary (posing lessons or video corrections of posing) so the expenditure is often too much for me when I travel.
Let’s see how we can make it the most efficient and the less invasive we can 🫶🏼

Hello guys
This morning same fasted routine
And also check-in : 60,4kg so 800gr less than Sunday.
Attached the pictures.
I don’t have yet the feedback of my coach so i will update you when he sees it.
Condition is coming slowly but surely.
Today was full day of posing videos correction and all is finished just now.
This midday I went to train hams and calves and weights or reps are still increasing, let’s make this still this way!!
We are 8 weeks out from wasatch
9 weeks out from klash
11 weeks out from pittsburgh pro!!
My luggage and meal prep is ready for the seminar in germany with the goodie bags tbjp 🫶🏼
I am leaving home tomorrow morning. And then i gonna workout upper body.
I will also have to do my 1h cardio in the morning so i think I will make it fasted.
I have 45min train to paris center
Then from Paris to Stuttgart, Germany, 03h10 of train.
I have bought a JBL headphone cause honestly for my trip to uk I had none and the train was boring 😂
At night tomorrow I will have a session with a german therapist, so good moment of relaxation after my upper workout.
And now for today all done, I am just now doing my 1h on the treadmill, then shower and then chill

Hello guys
Same routine this am
Nails appointment early this morning
Then i started the corrections again for my posing video subscribers, then full day of posing lessons online
And now I have just done some other posing corrections on videos again and now i go to do my cardio 1h
I have almost finished packing my luggage in between for friday departure
I just need to put everything into the suitcase and settle what is missing to go
The guy from the hotel does not answer to me for the fridge lol so i will have to be a cunt at the reception 😂
I also recorded the packing of my stuff for a reel ig for fitnessworld who is official resaler of tbjp product, and now on my treadmill I will do the montage, caption and send to him for him to post in 30min
Then once it will be over I will put everything into the suitcase shower and eat and relax and try to cut the phone, cause working on a informatical devise is cool but it removes all your sleep routine, I dont sleep before 3am and I am tired of it
It’s definitely not optimal for the rest of my cut. So tonight, no phone no work.

Hello guyz
Big day today
I started with my morning routine stretching vacuum mobility 30min
Then run to the post to look for my tbjp package, all the morning I started to prep the goodie bags for the seminar this weekend
Then I had two posing lessons into my studio of one hour each
Then I went to train glutes and calves
Warm up with bands
Abductors with bands 2x 11straight+11bent front at 100kg
Kickback 2x 10straightfeet+10diagonal at 60kg
Hipthrust 1×10 at 210kg yeahh + backoff 170kg x18rep
Unilateral frog at the smith machine 1x30kg for 12reps + backoff 25kg for 16rep
Calves seated 60kg 3×10
Then I went to do food shopping cause the hotel I am staying this weekend for the posing seminar in germany does not have FRIDGE ANYMOOOREE. Big 💩
So I bought chicken in cans and rice cakes but I will need to find a solution for GH 😂
I will ask the owner of the hotel to put a small bag of mine into their kitchen fridge 🙌😝
For breakfast it’s ok cause I will eat at the buffet, they have for sure bread and eggs
And for my pre and post workout it’s just isolate and cor and almond butter so nothing to worry about
And for my last meal on macros cheese and almond butter, well… we will do isolate and almond butter!!
No problems just solutions.
Tonight I have started to work on my video posing corrections for Thursday to advance my work
And only now I am doing my 1h cardio
Tomorrow rest day, and full day of posing classes online, but I will start to pack my luggage cause it needs organization and clear vision in my head.

If it’s swollen, red, painful, warm, please go to see a doctor, if it’s just the ball, it’s scar tissue so do massage and forget the zone for a moment

Rhea told it perfectly
It’s just too often injected at the same spot, basically just scars tissue
Do a rotation, left glutes, right shoulder, left leg, right glutes, left shoulder, right leg
But one advise, dont inject on leg if you train leg the day after or just after your injection 😂 some people I know were having a tad more pain while working out

Hello guyz
Same fasted routine this morning
I have received the feedback of my coach, he increase clen to 60mcg fasted
And reduced the diet. Attached my new diet.
He hopes for a significant change in condition and a weight drop. But we check this thursday as he does not want a huge weight drop either, he wants to keep my fullness and refeed if necessary.
It’s actually our first prep since we are together again after Team Atlas, so he knows myself by heart and he knows where we have made mistakes in the past.
We did push too much the condition too much in advance, but then for me it’s totally impossible to control the weight drop once stage lean, even if we reduce/stop cardio, reduce/stop clen or increase the food.
So the sweet spot we wanna reach is just a bit of condition on the rear side and then maintenance and peak week trials until 4/3 weeks out before the show.
I went to workout hams today so I will share again my workout made by my husband. Weights and reps are still increasing despite my blue thumb and lower back pain.
Actually the thumb is quite useless in my hams workouts which is good😂 tomorrow is glutes let’s see if I will need it or not 😂
Hams (Monday)
Lying leg curl 55kg 10 10/ backoff 45kg 15
Stiff dumbells 64kg 3x 11
Single leg rdl dumbells 44kg 11 11 + backoff max 30% 32kg 16
bulg lunges 44kg 12 12
Sumo dl dumbell 60kg 10 10 10
Then I went to my massage appointment and she focused on my belly and lower back
I needed it so much and now belly and lower back are perfect again ❤️🥹 feeling all fresh except from the blue thumb

I would consider a cut until you lower your body fat a bit and then build back up from there 🙌
Also having just a little better condition for few weeks is also motivating to keep you on track to push again on a growth phase later
This is my opinion 🙏🙌
