Habits for leaning out

by Megan on Sun, 07/10/2016 - 5:28pm | 0 comments

I've entered a new phase in my bikini competition prep, and my goal is to lean out (or some would say....I'm losing weight) I'm not far from where I want to be, but it's amazing that the last few pounds (3 or 4) can make all the difference when it comes to being stage ready. For those of you who don't already know, I spend much of my time in my beautiful hair salon (loca... read more

Where does the time go?

by Megan on Fri, 07/08/2016 - 6:25am | 0 comments

My competition is fast approaching, yet....so is life! I'm 52 days out from the WBFF WOrld Championships and find myself in a time where there is so much going on all at once. Keeping focused, and finally hitting my nutrition and food tracking hard. It always seems as if I have so much time left, but suddenly there's so little. I went for my first dress fitting yesterday, but had to te... read more

Staying lean while traveling

by Megan on Thu, 06/30/2016 - 4:31pm | 0 comments

This year has been full of travel for me, and I started to think about just how difficult it is for people to stay lean while traveling. An unpredictable schedule, sleeping in a bed that may or may not be comfortable, meals out at restaurants and being away from the gym at home can all be problems. Not to mention that some people eat out of boredom or lonliness or similar emotion. I'... read more
People who attribute a high level of fitness to good genetics Yesterday I was on instagram, and I saw a photo of a friend of mine who is a beautiful (and high level) WBFF Bikini Pro. The picture was of her in a sports bra, and she had tight, toned abs and a physique that any woman would love to have. I almost died when I scrolled below the picture to the comments and saw a random woman&r... read more

I'm officially training for my WBFF pro bikini debut. Right now my WBFF Bikini Pro debut is 125 days out. I'm starting out in a great place as I've been training consistently and diligently since my last competition and I tend to watch my eating year round. Many people have asked me why I'm training so early and I always tell them that the more success you have in fitness competit... read more

Hip Thruster Exercises for a better butt

by Megan on Sat, 04/09/2016 - 1:02am | 0 comments

One of the best ways to get ready for summer is to perform hip thruster exercises for a better butt. As a fitness competitor, I have to say that you become more aware of what looks great as far as physiques are concerned, and one thing that sets you apart is having a better butt. Many times when I've been at a competition and looked at a competitor, I thought that they looked amazing until th... read more

Chocolate Strawberry Smoothie Recipe

I've been eating extra healthfully for the new year, to reset myself a little after eating (I know I say this all the time!) way too much sugar over the holidays. I was fairly good about staying within a reasonable calorie range, but the foods that I ate weren't packed full of nutrition, so I've been doubling back and making sure to eat tons of fruits and veggies to make up for what... read more

http://<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/dGTy1t8LVdI" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> When I entered my first bikini competition years ago, I didn't have the first idea what I was doing. I thought that it would be enough to just get on stage and "be myself" Although I had fun,... read more

Here's my recipe for a Carrot Cake Smoothie. It has protein, fruits, veggies, healthy fats and carbs.....everything that you could want. In a vitamix blender: 1 ... read more

Working to achieve a goal

by admin on Wed, 03/16/2016 - 4:36pm | 0 comments

One thing that I've noticed with striving to reach a goal, is that not only do you get closer to the goal that you've been focusing on, but the positive steps and changes that you make to get closer to that goal tend to also move you closer to all of the other goals in your life. I signed up for the WBFF World Championships in August because I very much needed a goal, and I've been am... read more
