The Conversation
Nicole been playing sports since high school. During her first year at college she was working out at the YMCA and met her boyfriend, who introduced her to IIFYM. She fell in love with him AND counting macros!
Like many of us, she had someone come up to her in the gym with the famous like “you should compete.”
She’s now done two shows, her second of which she won… and is prepping for her third which will be in May.
She is doing a 26wk prep. She likes to take it slow so she’s not scrambling to get everything perfect in a short amount of time.
She actually REVERSES into her shows!!!
Her biggest struggles? It used to be relationships… dealing with others judgement and not understanding her choices. Now, it’s remembering to be in the moment.
Her schedule starts at 4am. Thats when she tackles school work, then its off to school/work. At night is when she hits the gym.
Her tip for success - always being prepared. She always has her meals and water with her and prepped. She’s a big fan of the Instant Pot and Air Fryer. She also inputs everything into My Fitness Pal the night before.
This year she is really focusing on her holistic health… in Sprit Mind and Body.
Her favorite moment? Winning first place after everything went wrong. (Tune in for this story… its CRAZY!)
