 Amy Fox is Australia's #1 ranking IFBB Amateur Physique competitor, going into the World Championships Amy has a chance to win or apply for her IFBB pro card. We got the below update from Amy at 4 weeks out!

"Here are some shots from the gym today, taken by Andy, of me only 4 weeks out from the World Championships in the Ukraine.

This is the FIRST time since 2008 that I have actually had AB definition, not to mention AB definition 4 weeks out of competition!

When I first hopped on stage in 2007 I was surprised and excited to see I had deep set, blocky abdominals. I'm sure everyone else has noticed this also.

Now they had disappeared for a combination of reasons with the shows in the years to follow, I had lost this definition and my tummy, at BEST, only ever appeared flat. Most of the time I had fat stored right the way around my mid-section. My body had changed...

On stage I liked to call it my "super model flabs", flat but no ripples & ZERO MUSCLE. The lumps and bumps are what I wanted! WHERE THE HELL HAD MY ABS GONE????!!!!!

I'll tell you, My ABS had decided that they were far too tired of being abused with sugar and rubbish food after competition. They were tired of not being challenged a trained hard. My body was not well rested, I was going to bed far too late and waking up at "stupid-o'clock" to work. My ABS had quit on me, so I decided it was time to get them back.

Andy has really nailed into me the importance of meal timing, especially carbs & sugars both during comp prep and in the off-season. Now deep down I know all of this but when you compete you tend to do REALLY DUMB THINGS so I can't stress enough about the importance of a good Coach and one that isn't going to just slice off calories in order to get a weight loss result.

I'm training really hard at Clean Health Performance Centre in the heart of Sydney's CBD and I can say that without a doubt, that this facility with its state of the art equipment, NO a treadmill, bike or rower in sight. Just the way I like it! AND I'm getting my abs back without these so called crucial pieces of equipment.

So as you can see, I'm getting closer!"
