Training with Master Coach Carla, Kiko has achieved an outstanding result and placed 2nd at her first ever comp; The ICN All Female Classic!
We asked Kiko about her time so far with Carla and Enterprise Fitness…
“After considering the idea of entering my first body building competition, a friend recommended I train with Carla from Enterprise Fitness. I had no idea about what was involved in competing but I knew I wanted to learn more about the process.
When I began my training, I saw physical changes within the first couple of weeks!
These initial few weeks were really challenging for me, both mentally and physically; I had to retune my body to this new way of eating and training. Being vegetarian, it was always going to be an interesting journey for me. I had no idea that for 5 months I was going to be eating 5 meals a day and including so many eggs and sweet potato! I was uncertain if I even had a physique that could gain the size needed to be in a Figure body building competition.
As a Personal Trainer, I teach clients about the body, nutrition and how to make changes to see the results they want. But this was a whole new level for me; personally and professionally.
About half way through the process I started to doubt myself, big time. Comparing myself to what I thought I had to be to compete, and not feeling ‘ready’.
I asked Carla every session “are you sure I’m going to be ready!?” and each time she reassured me.
I came out of that slump with focus and the strongest mindset I’ve ever had. AND I made it to the stage.
I hardly slept the night before and the day itself was surreal! I’ve never seen so many girls drinking maple syrup and eating rice cakes. I was unbelievably nervous. My ankles were shaking on stage, I was holding my breath, I felt like I was going to pull every muscle I’d worked so hard on. Round two on stage I felt more confident in myself. Placing 2nd in First Timers and 4th in Novice was more than I had expected for my first competition.
Training with Carla at Enterprise Fitness has been one of the most challenging and rewarding journeys I’ve ever set my mind to. I was pushed beyond what I thought I could achieve and given so much support. An amazing experience on every level.”
