Competition Prep

What it Takes to be an "Amateur" Bodybuilding Competitor

Lately, I’ve been focusing on mommy blogging because that’s currently where I’m at in life—being a new mom (and absolutely loving it). :)

So today I want to venture out a bit and discuss one of my favorite accomplishments thus far—competing in bodybuilding comps!

Buuuuut … I wanted to go even further and write about what it actually took to become a bodybuilder and competitor from my perspective → including programming, diet, mindset, you know, all the Ps and Qs.
