Well, The Big Girl's competition is exactly one week away. We've been discussing it quite a bit over at our proto-site, Mucle Ventures Podcasts. The site is not just media; each podcast has a blog post describing what's in it and provides links to relevant outside resources.
Needless to say, these last nine months training side-by-side for this thing have been quite a ride. In the fall, we started with mass building. That phase lasted from August through January. Nancy's training consultant Kevin recently estimated that she must have gained 8 lbs. of muscle mass during this period based on how she looks now. That's great gains for a woman. Next, from January through mid-March, we entered an intermediate phase between mass building and sculpting. In mid-March, we came into this pure sculpting phase, which in many ways is just an act of brutality perpretrated against your body to make it lose fat.
I have to say, I'll miss this. It's very exciting, and it's been great developing my training partnership with Nancy. When you're training partners with someone, you really get to know them. It's probably that way in any intense project that completes successfully.
What do we do next? I'm not sure. We seem destined to train together, and we have the Muscle Ventures activities.
