11 Weeks Out From Team Universe

I started my prep 14 weeks out from Team Universe, I will also be doing the Greater Gulf States amateur competition in June, which I am 9 weeks out from currently.  I am feeling incredible and very confident at this stage in the game. I started my prep in a very good spot and only have a few pounds to go.  This puts me in a much better position to be able to better my physique through the dieting/prep process.  I am not afraid of losing muscle because my cardio and diet is not nearly as intense as it has been in the past.  I am enjoying being in great enough shape to do photoshoots this far out from my 2011 season.  Below are a few shots taken last week in Vegas. 

 YES, I went to Vegas and I had a blast, although I am dieting and can’t enjoy an alcoholic beverage or all of the amazing food Vegas has to offer, I had a blast! Like I stated in previous blogs my goal of this prep was to live it up and enjoy each and every moment of it! I am living up to this so far. I have in, 2 weeks, dropped 4 lbs, I have never dropped this quickly and I believe it is because I am so happy and enjoying life more than ever before, I have nothing and nobody holding me back from my goals! Everyone in my life has been placed there for a reason and I am so blessed to have the family and friends that I have! 

 My diet is great, I have never had my fats actually increased 2 weeks into my prep, so my energy is at an all time high, also due to the fact that my body is changing and tightening up daily! My workouts are fun and I am feeling stronger everyday, both mentally and physically!  As I sit here and write this I become more and more excited to take this prep to another level. I will be starting my track workouts next week, which I am really looking forward to, contact me if you are interested in joining me! I work with Kim Oddo for my preps and I couldn’t ask for a better, more positive coach, he is truly a mastermind at what he does. He is so positive and honest about everything, he will never lead you astray.  If you have a body part that is failing, he will let you know, but he will always give you the positive reinforcement that you need! However, if you can’t handle true honesty, you may not do well with him, but then again you will never succeed in this industry without it! I can’t express enough how excited I am to step on stage in June, I have truly fallen in love with competing, I have found my niche and finally captured the right balance between my career as a trainer, mentor, competitor, friend, sister, daughter and aunt! My life is finally piecing together and I feel like I have found myself, again!

Thanks,

Jessica Jordan
