Kategoriat: Common, 306 sanaa

Hi again! :)

I'll tell you something about my training routine. I usually train 6 times a week at my gym and every other week I do also my cardio. I have two jobs, so I work a lot and sometimes I just dont have enough time to do everything what I would like. I work at my gym 5 days a week as an gym instructor and, because I am also the owner, I have to do lots of paper work.

I work also with mentally challenged people. We have here helping living -hostels ( I dont know the right words to describe that service...) to them and I work as an attendant "nurse" at the night shifts. I usually work 7 nights and after that I have 7 nights off. When i have that week off, I usually do my cardio with my dog...we like to walk almost every morning for one hour, at least. Finnish nature is wonderful and I like to do my cardio in the wood. At this time of year it is awesome, because spring is almost here and sun already warms up.:)

My training routine:

Day 1. Chest, Biceps
Day 2. Shoulders, Triceps
Day 3. Back
Day 4. Thighs, Calves
Day 5. Biceps, Triceps
Day 6. Hamstrings, Back

I try to do my abs almost every day. I could train all six days before I have to rest, but usually I train 3-4 days and then rest for one day. I like to change my exercises, moves, sets and reps very often. The most important thing in my training is technique! I have to feel my muscles really work, weights are not so important to me.

Next time I'll write about my diet in off-season. I try to be in shape all year round, but it's only natural that there are differences between off-season and competition season. ;)

Yours Pipa xxx :)

Hello! :p

I have written my blog in finnish since year 2006 and now I'll write also in english. These two blogs are not completely identical. My english is not perfect, but I promise I'll try my best. :)

I thought I'll tell you something about me and my life here and my career in bodybuilding. Next time I will tell you more about my new training routine.

I live in Finland, my hometown is Järvenpää, which is located very near by Helsinki, our capital city. I have own gym ( www.kinnarigym.net ) here in Järvenpää and I work as an gym instructor there. I also train at my gym. :)
I have another job too, I work as an instructor/nurse with mentally challenged people. I just love both of my jobs.

At the moment I'm 32 years old and my first competition was at year 2002. I competed in Fitness Figure category and I placed seventh. After that competition I wanted to change my category to bodybuilding. I competed in bodybuilding at years 2003, 2004 and 2006. After my competition at 2006 I decided to end my career, because I was very disappointed my last performance in the show.

MY CONTEST HISTORY

2002 Nestle Fitness Figure - 7th Place
2003 Finnish Bodybuilding Championships - 2d Place in Novice
2004 Finnish Bodybuilding Championships - 2d Place in +57kg
2006 Finnish Bodybuilding Championships - 5th Place in Open class

I have trained all these years after my last competition, because I love to train at the gym. I eat healthy food and try to sleep enough. I just love this life style!:p

Now I have decided...I'll come BACK and I'll train harder than ever before. I have planned to compete in autumn, but it is just a plan. I'm not sure yet do I have enough time to grow and prepare to the show in autumn.We will see that in the summer! :)

My height is 160cm (5'3") and my weight is 61kg (134lbs) in competition shape and 69-72kg (152-159lbs) in off-season.

I am very optimistic person and I enjoy my life. I have really good friends here and of course my dog Usko. I live with Usko at my flat which is very nice, it is located only 8km from my gym. :) When I have day off, I usually like to eat with my friends at the nice restaurants, walk with Usko or watch some movies. I think that every day is like an adventure to me. :)

I'll be back next week and then I'll write about my training routine.

Kisses to everyone!

-Pipa :)
