Recovering...

Hey,

The past 1,5 weeks (or more) has been recovery time for me... Cos I've suffered so many injuries now, I think my body's saying it needed a break.

I got 2 cortisone shots in to my right shoulder on wed, and I've been having two 1,5 hour massage sessions this past week, and next tuesday i'm going to a chiro, to see if there's something wrong
with my pelvis (As I've had some probs in that area back in the days..)., been stretching, walking on a treadmill and tried to keep my mind from going crazy, LOL (it's reaIlly hard for me to be even 2 days off the gym..)

Last Sunday I tried to train back with light weights. Like 15 reps per each set. Pulldowns, barbell rows, hammer strenght rows, pullovers etc.

Did a pretty good workout , can't wait to go back to heavy training though and get even a bit of my muscle fullness back!



So, guess what? I got to be in two of Finland's bodybuilding and fitness magazines! How cool is that? I'm really happy that they wanted to do articles about me, I feel really honoured.

1st one was about my bbing life (training, nutrition etc), how did I started bbing, and all that kind of stuff.


2nd one is about my blog:





And guess what again...
I GOT A SPONSORSHIP DEAL!
With Force Sports Nutrition!
A Finnish supplement company
, which makes excellent
products.

They already have a great line of products, and they're adding more in the future.
I'm really happy to have the opportunity to be part of the great team, and able to use their awesome products. I'm really grateful :)

XoXo,
E

Woohoo! Atta girl. I'm so proud of you. You're becoming a star Eva. One day you'll be on stage competing against girls like Cindy Phillips and Lisa Bickels. I'm so happy for you and I'm even more motivated now. :)

Kiitoksia todella paljon sanoistasi Nikke, tai pitäsikö sanoa "herra Niko Holma" (haha, meniköhän arvaukseni oikein?)

Näin kuviasi bodylehden sivuilla, ja täytyy sanoa että mahtavassa kunnossa olit kisoissa! Onneksi olkoon näin jälkikäteen! Todella upeaa, että meitä nuoria ja innokkaita lajin parissa on muitakin, etenkin kisaajia!

Olen kyllä niin mielettömän tyytyväinen jo tähän mennessä saavutettuihin asioihin.
Kunhan pääsisin takaisin kovan treenin makuun, niin sitten voisin sanoa, että menee todella hienosti näiltä osin :)

Kiitos vielä kerran!

Hi Eva,

I am sorry to hear about these nigglin injuries and i am sure you know what's best for your own body in order to make a full recovery. Nice to see that you can still resume your training and do light workoutś.

Thanks for the lovely pix and you look just great girl, i gotta say. Many congradulations on finding a suitable sponsor and hopefully it will help you immensely towards fullfilling your dreams and goals.

Have a lovely weekend and keep focussed.

All the best,
Rhys

joo, oikein "arvattu" sillä vähennyksellä et en ole herra:)sulla on kyllä syytäkin olla tyytyväinen jo pelkästään siihen et oot aivan superhyperuskomattoman potentiaalinen tyttö tähän lajiin! koita ny saada ittes kuntoon, aikaahan sulla on vaikka kuinka..näin sanoo kaveri jonka jokainen nivel on varmaan tulehtunu ja viimenen puolivuotta reenattu ylikunnos,heh heh..no ei sentään.

bavaria said...

WOW, I'm surprised u didn't have a sponsor already.
U should get yourself a homepage with a members section or something where u put up videos of your workouts :)

WauWauWau !
TODELLA paljon onnea Eva Forcen tiimiin pääsyn johdosta! Olen todella iloinen sun puolesta:) sponsori on kuitenkin niin iso ja hieno juttu ja sen myötä saat varmasti vielä lisää näkyvyyttä. Nyt täytyykin heti kipasta kauppaan ostamaan uusin Bodaus!^-^
Lehtijutun otsikko on ainakin täyttä asiaa. \,,/

Lämpimin terkuin,
Karoliina

Hi Eva
One thing I didnt say in my last email(which I hope as I said prior makes sense)was congrats for securing a sponsor.
Hope by now youre getting back to full strength at the gym and if I may add to what Bavaria has said-ever thought of uploading a posing clip in youtube?

Eva, you're looking great as always! Have you measured your biceps recently, how big are they?

Female Muscle Universe said...

Hi Eva. Congratulations for your sponsorship. Is a great news for you. By the other hand, I hope you can recover of your injuries. A good rest should be very helpful. And I'm glad for your magazine appear you are a great spokeswoman for the sport in general. Take care and keep going on.
