At three weeks out, I have officially decided to pull out of the show. I was on point, and my improvements were exciting. I just wasnt having fun with it like I used to. Contest prep is obviously never a cake walk, but my goals and motivations were different than they are now. It was becoming harder and harder to justify the toll that the next few weeks would take on my mind, body, and the people around me. I have had a solid cheat meal and two heavy training sessions, and Im feeling good about getting back to training for strength. I can hang on the aesthetic side, and I love the experimental aspect of training and nutrition, but I am more comfortable focusing on performance and presenting myself as a strength athlete.
