Contest Prep 2021

Renee 19 weeks out pro debut

ATHLETE SUMMARY:

PERSONAL THOUGHTS:

Energy and sleep started to increase about mid-week. Previous to that both were pretty poor. This AM felt GI heaviness. Nothing too noteworthy this week.

DIET FEEDBACK:

Slight hunger upon waking and usually from meal 3-5 but nothing unmanageable. No issue with diet. Had 50g of carbs added on 2/12 since weight dropped a bit more. Had 2 low carb tortillas and we made fajitas. It was a nice change from the norm. 

TRAINING FEEDBACK:

Enjoying this new training split. Workouts don’t take near as long as they had been taking and I have more steady energy throughout the entire workout. I would be pretty burnt out by the end of my lower workouts previous to this new split. 

First week swapping out the Arsenal Squat for Belt Squat. Still need to get used to this movement pattern but it’s been a welcomed change since I stalled out on the Arsenal for quite some time now.  

COACHING SUMMARY:

EVALUATION:

Renee handled food increase very well with little impact on body weight. She pulled down pretty fast last week so I added 50g carbs to one training day. I wanted to see the response and also if I am able to keep in a higher carb day to keep stress and fatigue lower. No drastic change in conditioning, but I am just going to monitor her over the next week to makes sure progress keeps happening.

ACTION PLAN:

No change to current plan.
