= Tokyo Open Body Bulding Competition 2003 =
June 1, 2003
Here are some pics from my first bodybuilding competition!!YUKO BODYBUILDING?! I know I know... don't get me wrong, I will never
ever use weight gainer's protein, or try to bulk up! It was just another
check mark on my TO-DO List in life, or before I hit the BIG 3.0. (that's 30 as in age, not my GPA)
I started training in January, and it's been a LOOOONG 6 months of dieting,
training, tanning... accompanied by the lovely mood swings, fatigue and sore muscles!! But this whole experience has given me a whole new outlook on many things, both fitness related and not. The song I used was "FIGHTER" by C.Aguillera, and yes, this has made me a fighter.
PREJUDGING:
You do your mandatory poses of double biceps, tricepts, side chest, isolated abs and the judges rate your for finals qualification.
and these are the other girls, aka kromags that I had to compete against!

FINALS:
made it to the finals!!!
Me nervous going onstage!
1:30 minutes of Freeposing to "FIGHTER"
Awards Ceremony:
Not quite Kromag enough, so I place 4th!
But at this point, all I could think of was "I can't wait to get off
stage, and go to dinner with my friends!
Lisle gives me a hug of congrats!
POST COMPETITION CELEBRATION KANPAI!!!
MY FIRST BEER IN A LOOONG TIME! God, I never thought it would taste THIS good!
MUNCH OUT @ BUBBA GUMPS TOKYO!
Although during the last month of training, all I did was
complain and stress out about the competition and wanted to call it
quits, the moment the curtains rose and I saw my friends out there
it really made me happy and proud that I did it till the end.
THANK YOU for all the support and motivation the past 6 months and
I hope that I motivated some of you guys as well!
