Welcome to my new blog everyone !
Ok, so I haven't been the best with blogging so far, but my life has been crazy busy as always leading into competition prep but I have done my best to keep you all updated the whole way with my progress.
This morning I woke up with a new found energy and excitement ! I think it is knowing that its finally going to happen and that last week is totally different to the past 19 weeks in terms of preparation.
This competition prep has been one of my best yet, I have felt extremely healthy, havent had to do as much cardio and have only started feeling tired due to my workload, lack of sleep and coaching business. I am the kind of person who tends to take on as much as possible, as I always enjoy th challenge.
I could not be happier with the progress and the gains that I have made in the year I have been on the Gold Coast. My continous strict regime of training and nutrition has continued on without a hitch. Although life never runs smoothly or the way it plans, nothing has detered me from my goal or made any impact on my results.
A couple of weeks ago I was starting to panick, slightly. I was really concerned with the fact that I would be standing on stage with my idols and the best figures in the world, so I was stressing about my condition and results. The hardest thing about my compeition prep this time around is that I have done it all souly alone without any praise or someone telling me I am on the right track. We all need a bit of reassurance at times, so that did have a little impact on my confidence at that time.
In the past couple of weeks I have seen my body change, lines come through and I have been posing more often. My mindset has changed and I am now just purely excited with the fact that in a weeks time I will be standing on stage with my idols and the best figures in the world, because I am living my dream. I got exactly what I set out to achieve in this sport and now this is the beginning of living my dream. I am honoured to share a stage with such amazing women and all I care about is the fact that I have improved and that this is the beginning of my journey as an IFBB Figure Professional.
Now all I will do is cross my fingers and hope that the new package Summer Bernard presents will set the benchmark for Summer Bernard to one day step on the Olympia stage.
Thank you for your support and the great encouragement that I receive, you have no idea how much strength that brings me.
If you will be at the FitX next weekend be sure to stop by the Iron Man Magazine booth after the Figure Professionals pre judging to say hi.
Love to you all
Summer xx
