My husband and I - National's 2013 Edition!!!

[ironwill]

She did more than just try it!! If I recall, this was what she said eating it friday afternoon ... "OMG, this is the best f_c_ing thing I have ever eatin in my entire life"... Something along those lines! Certainly alot funner to carb up on real things than boring old rice cakes with jam and jelly beans! Barf.. I think I have the cheesecake eating on video, I will surely be making some sort of compilation of the weekend for everyone to see here. (just so busy at work!)

Tonight I'll try to just put up some raw footage of her walkouts, callouts, etc. Shouldn't be too tricky to upload. Just that my camera takes such large sized video - takes forever to unload and upload!

And yeah, this thread will be transitioning very soon into my thread - wow - do I ever have some motivation now. I am almost 9 weeks away, and I think I am really starting to tighten up. mid 180s, so I will be making middleweight. Could be a tricky year, but training is going great so far! My confidence is increasing daily, and I think I should be at my best by far

Wicked, i am really looking forward to seeing you get into hi gear as well Steve....
I am glad she liked the cake.
Keep us posted, and What is Next Ange, i know it is sinking in, just curious if you are going to bust out soon on the pro stage, as i am very, very certain, you will be doing well there as well, and fast..

Ange's first walkout and winning her masters tall class, overall and (first) pro card of the night! As you can tell, not even a good image stabalization on my camera was going to save the video footage in the last bit after she won!

That's awesome. That must be a great moment for both of you. Congratulations and good luck with your show Steve and your next show Angela.

Wow, thanks! Well an e-mail welcoming me to the IFBB made it a bit more real, but I am not feeling the need to rush into another show. I think a show next year that we can plan a vacation around (maybe see an NFL game, we've always wanted to do that) will be part of the plan. There are always improvements to be made and as long as I stay healthy I see another great off season of squatting! lol.

And the cake was so good, the apple cheesecake was to die for! Best thing I have ever eaten!

Now I am looking forward to Steve's progression. He has changed sooo much in the last couple of weeks. He is big, full, and leaning out quickly! I am excited for him, and that the show is local is a bonus!

Next video... Ange does her 2nd walkout of the night in the figure medium-tall class. Followed by the overall lineup and pro cards. I was less shaky with the camera this time!

Simply amazing. Great job !

One week ago today... I made this fun video highlighting Ange's weekend (not just the show itself!), from waking up, the airport, the carb-ups, and of course the show! Enjoy!
