Beginning of my Contest Preparation

-
Hey hey,

Lets count that Monday the 16th of June, is my official date for beginning of my contest preparation. I feel good and positive about that, though i must admit im a bit afraid because of so big challenge as i plan to compete in World Women Championships in Spain.. Oh, well, there has to be always the beginning, dont you think?! :)
I started my new routine on Monday and i love that... i do almost every day also some kind of cardio, first week i take morning cardios a bit lighter (20-30min step or walk or just exercising) but i know that i should do more in the mornings.. After strength training i do cardio as well for 30min-1,5hrs, depends of day and tensity.... i hope i can continue that way... So i have almost every day actually some kind of training ;)))) which is very good :))

Now the Mid Summer day is close and John's Day (Jaanipäev) and i need to continue with my good diet and training.. and its obviously hard thing to do though im positive about that i can handle with all my desires and can manage with that :) Lets see how good or bad i manage Jaanipäev ;)

I wish you all the greatest Mid Summer Day and Jaanipäev and keep away from heavy alcohol ;) .. take a good care and have fun :) .. Here is a small pics few years ago when there was Jaanipäev :) So dont go crazy with the fire ;))

My very best wishes,
Gerbel

    Hey hey Gerbel,

    Many thanks for posting the video link and WOW! You are one STRONG GAL! I was impressed with how many reps you could do. Perhaps Fitness.ee could arrange a comp for a 1 Rep Max sometime as i am sure you could beat your personal best someday! I tell you smoke was cetainly coming from that rowing machine and i am sure Ott was REAL impressed with your peformance, well done and great going!! I am sure you will beat my time too, so who knows.

    It sounds like you got a neat lil plan for your cardio workouts and i am sure that you'll soon see a awesome ripped physique materialise. Hey, no worries, i have every faith in you that you'll do real well and it's awesome to know that your taking this HUGE challenge. My respect and admiration goes out to you girl cuz you rock!

    I wish you and your family/friends a wonderful Jaanipaev and hope you'll have lottsa fun! I pray for your success and dtermined hard work.

    Take care and be safe.

    Hi Rhys,

    Im glad you liked the video :) .. i had 65kg on the bar and i thought its a great result as well :)

    Yeah... it will be hard to keep away from good food this weekend and Jaanipäev and mostly the portion size is important to keep under control and that is what i try to do. :)

    Yes, so for you we will serve not burnt burgers :) LOL

    I wish you a nice weekend and Jaanipäev :)

Hey all guys and girls, Damn, time flies, you get older and the time seems unstoppable ;) Hope in your end all is good. My end, it’s great. It has been so many things going on, all life has been a big challenge lately, but I like to be positive and I am. So, there has been always a light at the end of the tunnel. Many things have had happened last 2-3 years in all single levels of my life and it has been difficult in times but I have been lucky. I had some health problems but I got over it. Lets say I got really lucky and I'm very grateful for it.  Closer friends know what it was about, I will never be really ready to share it I guess but lets say "Thank you God". I have done some trainings but not very regular. Couldn't go heavy because of my health issues, but gradually I will get back to the regular physical exercising. Its not important to go really heavy, its important to do regular physical training and eat healthy. That was my moto when I was...

To make the story short ;) ..we met online and we knew that we should be together already before we first met in real life, meeting was just a confirmation of our feelings :) Lovely! :) A hint, soon there will be also wedding picture in Kroonika ;) Now, after 5 month knowing each other, we are married. Seems like a fairy tale. The wedding was very lovely in one small castle, as simple as it could be. On 17th my day started already 0630am, did my make-up and went to hair dresser. Wedding was at 10.45 am and followed by lunch-dinner reception in near by restaurant "Den Bourgondier" with our witnesses, Guy's parents and relatives. Unfortunatly, my best friend Aire couldnt c...
