Tips from Shay!

Hey all!
So sorry I haven't gotten to update, I've been working my bum off and busy as ever! But I finally found some time today and will hopefully be able to continue giving general health, wellness, and fitness tips! If you have a question you'd like answered, please feel free to send me a message on my FB page! Look up Shay Magee, add me and let me know you found me through the BIGRIG BLOG!

So today's tip....
Are you feeling more fatigued than usual? Do you wake up not feeling rested?
Bodybuilders and fitness enthusiests consistantly are notorious for keeping their diets low in salt to prevent bloating. Well, although this is generally OK, there is a very important potassium/sodium balance that may very well be disrupted, making you feel tired, esp. in the mornings! This is because your aldosterone levels are low.
This is a pretty easy fix.
Allow yourself to use a small ammount of salt on your foods.
Also, my biggest tip-mix 1 tsp. salt (iodized or sea salt is best) in 80z water. Drink it right when you wake up in the morning. If you do feel better, you know your aldosterone levels were low, and a pinch of salt here and there-although the scale may move up a bit (temporarily, of course!), you'll feel better and be able to ROCK that morning cardio harder than ever!! :)
Although sea salt is better than regular, if you'd rather regular salt, make SURE it is iodized. Iodine is a vital nutrient for optimal thyroid functioning, and if you want to take that fat off, you better make sure that thyroid is kickin' in full gear!! Iodine is a main component of thyroid hormones, that and the amino acid L-tyrosine. Regular salt is generally non-iodized anymore, because it's cheaper to add in other "fillers" to salt that are actually damaging to your body.
Even if you take a multi and eat a healthy diet, you're probaly still not getting enough iodine. A supplement is a wise idea, if you suspect low thyroid function, and it can even reverse hypothyroidism.

Let me know how you like this blog, and keep me updated on YOUR progress!
xoxo
Shay

Head in the Game!

Yesterday I was at the Rochester bodybuilding show with Big Rig Supplements and my fellow Pit Crew Beauties. We all had soo much fun! Pat look incredible and he definitely brought it to the stage and stomped the competition!
Seeing the show just got me more stoked for my two up coming shows in October! Have my suit, diet and training workout are getting into place and head in the game! It's currently 18 weeks out so in two more weeks is when the hardcore w/o and dieting begins. Love the workouts, dieting sucks, lol, but so worth it when you get the results! Can't wait to be on stage with my girls Karen and Shay. All three of us beauties on the same stage...Watch out Rochester!

Ant Tedesco's own "Cheat Meal Damage Control Cycle" by NRG-X Labs

After a show, as you probably know, most bodybuilders and figure competitors go on a binge lasting anywhere from a few meals to weeks of en gorging themselves with everything they have been deprived of for the three or more months before competition. Personally, I have found that two days of "binging" is more than enough to satisfy cravings without destroying months of hard work but other competitors lose all willpower and find themselves "out-of-shape" again at an alarming rate. In my off season, having 1-2 "cheat" meals per week helps me to keep my sanity while following a very clean meal plan still that just contains more of the good, quality whole foods I consume pre-contest. Anyways, during those two days of binging, moderated or not, year after year I find myself bloated to the "xtreme" afterwards and spend the entire next week trying to get rid of that discomfort. Starting immediately after my show, with my very first "cheat", I will be using MaXX Digestion and Red Stinger to keep my metabolism working as hard as it was to drop the body fat before the show and the food being processed by my body which will now be in shock from the large amount of carbohydrates and fats that it had grown unaccustomed to. As I had mentioned in a previous note, I will be taking MaXXtraXtion today, tomorrow, and Friday to drop subcutaneous water before the show, but I also plan on starting it again Monday-Wednesday to keep water down from my binge and maintain a tighter physique. Many competitors can not find their abs within a week post-contest. I will not be one of them.

Before "cheat" meals, I will take 1 cap of MaXX Digestion and 2 caps of Red Stinger (can be substituted with 1 cap of Red Stinger Xtreme or Red Stinger Black Label (coming soon!)). This will be a staple in my supplement stack from here on out!

First BLOG!

Here comes my first Big Rig BLOG!!
I have recently accepted the role of Spokes model for Big Rig Supplements. I am very excited to learn more about the products & share what I learn with everyone!

I want to give you a snapshot of my background & my upcoming projects and goals.

I grew up on a dairy farm in LeRoy; yeah that's right a farmer's daughter.. oh boy!! I began taking gymnastics at age 6 & truly believe that that is where I started to learn about discipline and hard work. I've carried that mentality right to the gym with me to this day.
I graduated from SUNY Brockport in 2001 with a B.S. in Physical Education with a Concentration in Exercise Physiology. I have been a personal trainer since college on a part-time level at several locations. (Rochester Athletic Club, The Jewish Home (absolutely adore the elderly), Oak Hill Country Club and currently at the Downtown Fitness Club)

I started doing Natural Figure competitions in 2007. I have competed in the NGA, INBF and WNSO organizations and plan on doing more in the future. I am also planning on getting my Pro Card.. IT WILL HAPPEN!

In 2008 I began training for the NGA Natural Northeast and CAN/AM shows and found out I was pregnant 2 months into the training! My husband, Adam and I were thrilled...but I was left a little confused as to what to do about the shows. I checked with my doctor and she said as long as I keep hydrated GO FOR IT... and I DID!!! The picture I attached is from this show; I got out on stage at 11-weeks pregnant and people still remember me as the "pregnant figure girl" It was so rewarding being on stage as the M.C. announced that I was nearly 3 months pregnant! The crowd gasped & I grinned from ear to ear!! I gave birth to our beautiful Samantha in October of '08. Shortly after, I started to get the itch to compete again. I decided to take part in the 2009 INBF Natural USA and NGA Olympus. These were 2 of my favorite shows. I was just so happy to have gotten back into contest shape after the baby.. and actually looked & felt better than EVER!! I have had continuous support from my trainer & sponsor, John Hutchings of the Downtown Fitness Club.

My newest venture is sewing and designing Figure bikinis! I made my own suits for the last 2 shows I did and am now starting to sell them and get a business going. You can check it out on Facebook:
http://www.facebook.com/?ref=home#!/pages/Figure-Suits-by-Megan/125690227443788

OK, well that's enough about me. Thanks for reading!! More to come soon.

Also included a pic of Sam & I at her first trip to the gym. =)
