and…. I’m nervous, I’m excited and I feel confident.

I’m training really hard every day.
I’m on a reduced intake of food and

I haven’t had rest in a few months.

At the end of a long preparation, It’s really a mental game.

But the big show is close and I can’t wait to see all of my friends and then get on stage and compete to see who is the best in the world.

I just love the WBFF, the competitors and what the Federation stands for and no matter how everyone places I just have admiration for the process all of the WBFF pro’s go through.

I have worked really hard this year to improve my physique from last year.
I’m doing things differently, my training and nutrition is a real departure from what I did last year.

In some ways that’s really scary.

I guess I could have kept everything the same as my last prep but I just feel super driven to keep upping my game. I know that this year’s field of competitors is sensational. I also know that they have to catch me and I am determined not to be in the same place as I was last year so have taken a risk so that I can drive myself to the next level.

In the tour de France the hardest place to be is at the front of the pack because you have to cut the wind, everyone else is in your slipstream. So it’s easier to ride just behind the leader and save your strength for the sprint later. Plus the leader can't see where the rest of the field is and has to drive them selves forward without fear.

For a long time that was Andrea’s job. The standard she set pulled me towards getting better and better until it was my turn to be the standard bearer.

As the reigning world champion, It’s my job to keep pushing the competitive standard of the WBFF and create a slip stream for my fellow competitors.

That’s the beauty of competing we all bring out the best out in each other.

So this year I’m bringing the best package I have ever brought to stage,
I'm bringing my A-Game
and I’m bringing a heart full of love
and I'm going to bring home the tittle.

I’m nervous,
I’m excited,
I’m confident.

Love and Light

PS: Right now my Sports Model Project is full.
I’ll be taking on 10 new girls in September once I’m done competing and have had a little break.
