Hello friends!

I will be starting this thread to log my 2026 prep. I will be doing a qualifier in November, and Nationals in December. The long term goal is to turn pro, and working hard for the cards to stack up for me this winter.

A little about me, I’m 33 and competing in wellness. I previously competed in powerlifting at a high level for years, before finally making the switch to bodybuilding. I have loved and followed bodybuilding for a long time, but knew I had to take the time to heal my relationship with food as well as prioritize my mental health before even considering the stage.

I’m excited to bring a female perspective, and bring you along for this journey. My hope is to not only share my experiences, but to also support and inspire others along the way.

I’m honored to have been selected by Syngenix Labs as a sponsored athlete! With their support, I will be sharing with you detailed logs of my cycles, training, and nutrition. If you haven’t read Syngenix Intro post, please do so. Very happy to be working with a good man that values the same things I do; family, hard work, and perseverance.

I’ll share some progress pics below, as well as my current plan. I’ll update this thread as my plan changes, and then we will start a new thread when prep is over and it’s time for the next chapter. I welcome everyone to ask questions, get involved, and come along for the ride!
 
15 and 19 weeks out
Height: 5’8”
Weight: 165 lbs
Current cardio: 5x25 min (elliptical)
Steps: 7500
Training: glutes/quads, hams/adductors, rest, primary glutes, rest, full lower, rest. Upper pump day every few weeks.
Macros: Training days are 215 protein, 290 carbs, 50 fat (roughly, I’m on a meal plan). Rest days 25% less carbs.

Current cycle: 45mg primo, 30mg Npp split M/W/F
5mg test a week (hrt)
5mg anavar daily
20mcg clen and 5mg yohimbine before fasted cardio only
 
I mentioned above backing off training volume was big for my progress. I also take recovery seriously. I’m the type of person that has no issue running myself into the ground, so I really had to put effort into recovery and realizing more is not always better.

I cold plunge multiple times a week, which has been great for inflammation. I’m strict with my bed time and making sure I get sufficient sleep. I get regular bodywork done. And I also put time into my hobbies outside of bodybuilding, which has been great for me mentally, as well as physically (some forced relaxation lol)

Welcome to the team 💪 This is just the beginning. You’ve been putting in the hard work, you got the discipline, and commitment you have earned this opportunity.

We're stoked to be part of your journey and can't wait to see where this journey takes you.
 
Here is 6 years ago and 3 years ago. I started very out of shape and definitely wasn’t blessed with great genetics, and once I lost the weight I was just skinny. I didn’t start training completely focused on bodybuilding until almost 2 years ago. Sometimes I feel like I took the scenic route on my journey, but I’ve learned a lot along the way.

Here is progress Nov until now. Goal was to build some muscle in these long legs and noticeable progress in glutes and hams. (Sorry for the quality of the old pics, I now have a proper ring light)

I did the same thing. Couldn't make up my mind which direction I wanted to go. But I don't regret it at all.
Important thing is you took the trip
