DR. HARRIET DAVIS IFBB PRO

 

Dr. Harriet Davis is a very impressive woman by anyone’s standards.

Brains and beauty. I really appreciate how Harriet didn’t start hitting the weights until after she was 40 years-old (more like 40 years-young) if you can believe that. What an inspiration to those who thinks it’s too late to start.

 

Name: Dr. Harriet Davis
City/State/Country: Charlotte, North Carolina, USA
Age: 43
Height: 5’2″
Type of Competing: IFBB Bikini Professional
Weight/Competition Weight: 115lb./110lb.

You’ll also notice that there’s only a 5lb difference in Harriet’s competition and off-season weights. This consistent trait in vegan bodybuilders is a sustainable health advantage that plant-eaters have over meat-eaters in fitness arena.

 

Once I transitioned to a 100% plant-based diet, the first thing I noticed was that my daily energy levels increase as well as my mental sharpness and focus. Most vegans and vegetarian athletes will tell you that their bodies feel good (physically and emotionally) almost all of the time.
—Dr. Harriet Davis

 

When and why did you become a vegan bodybuilder?

 

I have always had an aversion to consuming meat. When I entered college, I chose to cut all meat from my diet and I became vegetarian (1989). Over the years, I started to develop several “intolerances” to different foods including dairy/eggs and therefore, in 2007, I decided to become a gluten-free, vegan foodist and never looked back!

 

Shortly after I turned forty, I started to notice changes in my physique that were not typical of the past. I began to notice less muscle definition in my legs (and more adipose tissue). So, over the next year (2011-2012) I increased my weekly running mileage (25-30miles/week) and as a result, I developed a stress fracture in my foot. But the undesirable changes in my physiques did not respond as I had expected.

 

Feeling frustrated with my physical appearance, in December 2012, I decided to hire a vegan personal trainer. This was beneficial because the trainer was able to help me identify several nutritional issues that were contributing to me gaining fat rather than building muscle. After 3 months of nutritional revisions, and personal training, my body had started to respond the way that I desired. Then, being the goal-oriented person that I am, I decided to start competing.

 

What are the advantages of being a vegan as an athlete?

 

I would have to say is an abundance of energy! Once I transitioned to a 100% plant-based diet, the first thing I noticed was that my daily energy levels increase as well as my mental sharpness and focus. Most vegans and vegetarian athletes will tell you that their bodies feel good (physically and emotionally) almost all of the time.

 

Describe your bikini competition diet while preparing

 

Vegetarian bikini competition meal plan:

 

Quinoa, fruit (apples, pears, grapefruit, lemons), sweet potato, greens (kale, spinach), black beans (black bean spaghetti), mushrooms, carrots, cucumber, protein shake(s), nuts (almonds), legumes (garbanzo beans/chickpeas), and LOTS of water (1.5-2 gallons/day)!

 

Favorite food in your prep diet

 

Black Bean Spaghetti

 

Describe your diet off season

 

My off season diet is very similar to my competition prep diet but, I am more liberal with fruits, and monounsaturated fats (avocado, nuts, etc.).

 

Favorite breakfast dish?

 

Quinoa and Kale

 

Favorite post-workout meal?

 

Black Bean Spaghetti, grilled asparagus, with sautéed onions and mushrooms.

 

Supplements that you personally use?

 

Garden of Life Raw Fit protein powder; KIND Organics: Women’s multivitamin, Vitamin B12; Humapro branched-chain amino acids

 

Describe your training for a competition (favorite exercises, weekly training schedule, etc)

 

·         Monday: cardio (am/pm). Gym: legs (quads, inner/outer thighs), abs

·         Tuesday: cardio (am/pm). Gym: shoulders, arms (biceps, triceps), abs

·         Wednesday: cardio (am/pm). Gym: (hump day): glutes, hamstrings.

·         Thursday: cardio (am/pm). Gym: total body workout.

·         Friday: cardio (am/pm). Gym: legs, abs, back

·         Saturday: REST DAY!

·         Sunday: cardio (am/pm). Track workout (sprints, high knees, etc)

 

Describe your training off season (favorite exercises, weekly training schedule, etc)

 

My training off season is essentially the same except I only have one cardio session a day (and for a shorter time). Some of my favorite exercises are:

 

·         Squats

·         Lunges

·         Glute bridges

·         Deadlifts

 

What special tricks of the trade can you tell us?

 

Posing and presentation are very important when preparing for a show. Like with anything else, practice makes perfect. The more time you spend practicing, the better you will look on stage. When you practice often, not only does it make you more confident, but it will also make you look better on stage. You want to make sure you keep your head up, abs tight, and stand erect.

 

When practicing your posing, hold each pose for 60 seconds—this will help build your stamina for when on stage. You also want to make sure you work on your transitions so you are fluid with your movements and everything moves smoothly from each pose.

 

Another huge tip for posing is to smile! By smiling you look comfortable on stage and look like you’re having fun. There is nothing worse than going to a bodybuilding show and watching a competitor go out on stage and look like he/she is not having fun.

 

What plans do you have for your future in fitness?

 

One of my main goals is to build more muscle (Glutes) and continue to improve my physique for the 2015 season. Since I have recently earned my IFBB a pro card (July 2014), I am actively competing on the professional circuit with a goal of becoming qualified for The Bikini Olympia by 2016!

 

How does the future of vegetarian bodybuilding look from your vantage point?

 

As time progresses, I anticipate that there will be more and more vegetarian and vegan bodybuilders. Plant-based products are now mainstream. Vegetarian foods are readily available. There are also many companies that have developed excellent products (supplements, protein powders, etc) for vegan and vegetarian competitors. With that being said, I expect the future of vegetarian bodybuilding to grow exponentially over the next few years.

Q: Who had to most positive influence on you growing up as a child and why?

 

I come from a family of extremely hard workers and entrepreneurs who are super supportive and encouraging. Without them, I wouldn’t be the person I am today!

 

Q: What is Bombshell Mafia?

 

When I was 19 years old I opened a small boutique salon called Bombshells Beauty Bar (“Bombshell” was a nickname I had in high school because I had no qualms about showing up in red lips and Marilyn monroe-esque platinum hair). I had the salon for eight years, and I was extremely busy and it quickly became well known for creating amazing hair.

 

About five years into that business, I knew I wanted to expand outside the salon, and do more than just hair. I wanted to run a larger company and take the Bombshell name bigger. I bought the domain name for Bombshell Mafia and got back to work in the salon because it was getting busier by the week.

 

About two years later, I started to get really burnt out from doing so much hair. I was loosing my passion for it. Long story short, I decided to sell my home, my business, my assets…everything to move to California to start fresh and focus on building Bombshell Mafia. It never happened, I stayed in Calgary.

 

“I tried to work in a few different salons, but my passion still wasn’t there. Things just were not clicking for me. I was in a funk. This is when I decided to hire a business coach and really start to focus in on what I wanted to do, and how I was going to grow a business out of the hair industry.”

 

During this time at the salon, I had also lost over 90lbs., competed in two bikini competitions and went back to school for my holistic nutrition certification, and took up a hobby of self -improvement. With the help of my coach we sat down and created a concept and programs to help other women become the best versions of themselves.

 

Everything was there, we just needed a name. I was searching through my old emails and BombshellMafia.com came up and we both decided that it was the perfect embodiment for everything I had visions of doing and creating. Now Bombshell Mafia is up and running and the main focus of my life. You can check it out at www.bombshellmafia.com

 

Q: I recently saw your pictures of your recent bikini competition where you placed 5th. Walk us through the transformation over the past year (mind, body, and soul) and what you did differently with training and diet.

 

After going through a lot of changes and trying to settle and restart my life over again, I have to admit I got really depressed. I kept trying and trying to prep for another show and I couldn’t follow through. When I had competed the last few times, it was a STRUGGLE. It took me three years to get back to the stage.

 

After that show in 2012, I started training with a well-known fitness competition “team” and developed an unhealthy mentality, including extreme eating and body image issues. When I just couldn’t keep up and perform anymore, I sought out help in other places. I hired other coaches. Failed. I fell off every wagon I was ever on. I remember just being so mad at myself.

 

I just didn’t like this person I was anymore. I decided to prep one last time just over a year ago. I was really going to DO IT this time.

 

One night, I felt all these old issues coming back. I vividly remember going to bed teary eyed praying to God to give me the strength and tools I needed to change my life, and help change the lives of others. That morning I woke up and went to pack my food for the day as usual, except as I went to grab my baggies of Mrs. Dash covered tilapia and chicken and I just couldn’t do it.

 

I was completely repulsed. This is the day my life really started to change, because my new coach wouldn’t change my program to accommodate no meat, and no one I knew really seemed to know what to do.

 

“This started my journey into vegetarian bodybuilding (eventually going vegan). I started to do my own research and go back to everything I learned in holistic nutrition and get away from all the ‘bro science’ I had subjected myself to.”

 

I started reading books like “80/10/10”, “The Starch Solution”, and “The Vegan Guide to the Galaxy”. I realized that there was actually a huge community of support I could tap into.

 

“After fully switching over to a plant-based diet, I started to feel incredible. I had an abundance of energy and strength for my workouts, I woke up in a fabulous mood, and I was starting to enjoy food.”

 

I was enjoying my life and was overjoyed to learn the impact my new vegan lifestyle had on the animals and environment. I found an amazing coach via Facebook in Australia who helped me fine tune my macros and teach me more about flexible high carb vegan dieting for competition. I was loving life, getting lean and was ready to kick some ass and take some names.

 

After finishing my eight -week program with her, I knew I wanted to compete. I knew I wanted to do it as a vegan bodybuilder, and it was time to make moves.

 

I competed in the NPC, and hired a coach with a team well-known for winning physiques. He was the only person out of five teams I contacted who would take me on as a vegan.

His diet was the complete opposite of what I had known and loved veganism.

 

“It was a low carb, high-fat, moderate protein diet. I modified a lot of things based on my own biofeedback, but I was committed.

 

I learned what my body needs, what it responds to best, and when to push and pull. This was a huge eye opener for me.”

 

Q: What did your meal plan (include vegan supplements) look like leading up to the Pro show?

 

I started off high carb with a ratio of 70/20/10 (CARB/PRO/FAT) and ended up being somewhere around 25/35/40 when I switched coaches. I started with zero supplements, and ended up having to incorporate B12, BCAAs, glutamine, and electrolytes over the last 3 months.

 

My average day consisted of:

 

·         Oats with a scoop of protein powder

·         Green veggies with tofu or black bean burger

·         Avocados

·         Pinto beans

·         Spoonfuls of peanut butter

·         2 more protein shakes

 

Q: Best advice you ever received for bodybuilding?

 

Be consistent and persistent and go hard for yourself. No one will do the work for you. It is absolutely up to you, to make up your mind and execute your goals.

 

Q: What uncommon activity do you schedule into your daily routine?

 

Every night before bed I do 30 mins of personal development. I really feel like this needs to be a not-so-uncommon activity for everyone.

 

“I listen to audio books, watch speakers on YouTube, read, and soak in juicy jewels and golden nuggets to get me set up for the next day.”

 

This also helps keep me fresh and sharp to be able to share and pass this on to others when I know they need some extra encouragement in their lives.

 

Q: What has been the hardest obstacle for you to overcome in your life?

 

When I was younger I was overweight, I looked like a boy, I had horrible teeth and was bullied fairly often. I grew up, and was still bullied. I have heard horrible gossip and have been the subject of rumors and stories. Women can be such bitches, and men can really do some damage if they want to.

 

“One of the biggest obstacles I have dealt with, and have to STILL regularly work on, is my own value as woman and being strong and unwavering in who I am. Not letting people’s opinions sway or change me.”

 

In hindsight, most of the struggle in my life stemmed from not listening to my inner voice and letting to many outer voices in.

 

Q: What was the hardest part of going plant-based? What helped you overcome the obstacles?

 

For me, going plant based was a “light switch” type effect. For a while, I even tried to eat meat, fish, or dairy, and I just couldn’t do it. It felt so unnatural.

 

“At first it was difficult to go out with friends, but now I love the challenge and my friends have become curious about my lifestyle.”

 

A lot of them actually enjoy the veggie spots and have adapted more meatless meals into their lives. Knowing others are watching me, and my choices, and the positive effect it had on my life, makes any obstacle worth it a million times over.

 

Q: What misconceptions about vegetarianism did you have at first that are now shattered?

 

I didn’t think I was going to survive. Literally. I thought I was going to have to live a straight up granola life wearing parachute pants and be malnourished. Not only I am surviving, I am truly thriving for the first time in my life, and I’ve actually started to enjoy cooking.

 

I must say, it turns out I’m quite the vegan chef! And it turns out parachute pants are pretty damn comfortable after yoga class.

 

Q: Talk about plant-based protein and your favorite sources? What advice would you give someone struggling with the protein concept?

 

My favorite sources of plant protein are tempeh, tofu, beans, and seiten. I also like to include bean or spelt pastas.

 

“I feel so much better when I don’t focus on protein intake, but adequate calorie intake and nutritional density. If you don’t think you can perform or build muscle without high protein, try high carb for a few months.”

 

You’ll be hooked on that carb train right to “Gainsville” and you won’t look back. Don’t be afraid to try something new and challenge what you think you know.

 

Q: What’s next for you, what new goals do you have for yourself (doesn’t have to be bodybuilding related)?

 

In two weeks, I have one more Bikini competition here in Canada, and then I have decided to take a year off to build some muscle. I will continue to experiment with my diet and training to prepare for next season. It’s important to keep integrity within myself and only build up from here.

 

I’d also like to go full-time with Bombshell Mafia and help create strong minds and healthy bodies all over the world. I want to help a lot of women who are struggling like I did know that more is possible for their lives.

Bikini Competition Meal Plan - HOW TO EAT BEFORE A BIKINI COMPETITION

 

A well-crafted bikini competition meal plan can make all the difference in how well you place. You can have the best body, coach, and poses, but how you eat 14-30 days before the competition can ultimately determine your success. Your diet during this period is what pulls everything together, and ideally makes you look ripped, but not starved.

A well-crafted bikini competition diet plan can make all the difference in how well you place.

 

You can have the best body, coach, and poses, but how you eat 14-30 days before the competition can ultimately determine your success. Your diet during this period is what pulls everything together, and ideally makes you look ripped, but not starved.

 

General Advice for Competition Prep:

 

·         follow a plant-based nutrition plan that is based on macros (carbs, protein, and fat).

·         choose meals built around a primary protein source

·         have a cheat meal every seven days

·         no cheat meal two weeks out

·         avoid alcohol, even wine

·         drink at least a gallon of water each day

·         cut out water starting the day before the show

 

Bikini Competition Meal Plan - Bikini Competition Tips from the Pros

 

Samantha Shorkey talks about her diet before a bikini competition:

 

Like most bikini competitors, to get really cut right before their competition, I eat asparagus constantly (a natural diuretic) and consumed dandelion root (another natural diuretic.)

Diuretics help to flush out the sodium and excess fluids in between skin and muscle.

 

Asparagus contains high levels of the amino acid asparagine, which not only helps to flush out the fluids but it helps rid the body of excess salts too. And salt (sodium) equals bloating—something you definitely don’t want on stage.

 

I also cut out water starting the day before my show.

 

Generally speaking in terms of diet, (whether training to compete or not), I get most of my protein from tempeh, tofu, beans and high quality, vegan protein powder. I like mixing them with hemp or brown rice protein powder.

 

My go-to starchy complex carb sources are yams, squash, quinoa, and oatmeal. For fats, I love almond butter, extra virgin olive oil, coconut oil, and flax seed oil.

 

“With bikini division, there isn’t really a bulking period so I generally never allow myself to get any bigger than about 135 lbs. (I’m 5’7). I basically just add in more cardio over time and very gradual calorie reduction to lose any extra weight.”

 

Suskia Strafella describes her training for a bikini competition:

 

I start off at 6am with my morning cardio spinning/cycling of 30–45 minutes and finish off with an intense ab workout every single day. I then do my evening weight training after work.

 

“I really enjoy my cardio sessions as I have so much more energy for that being in the early AM!”

 

When it comes to my resistance training, I incorporate a lot of high reps, super sets, giant sets and barely any rest in between my sets unless I’m about to throw up! My high reps and different training techniques are quite a new method for me so let’s see how it goes with my future prep!

 

Andra Purba’s vegetarian bikini competition meal plan:

 

·         Meal 1: Half cup homemade sugar-free granola (I bake oatmeal with cinnamon and sugar-free maple syrup). For my protein shake: I blend almond milk with berries, protein powder, and peanut butter.

·         Meal 2: (post-workout) low sugar, low-carb protein shake.

·         Meal 3: Spicy buffalo tofu with sesame green beans and an apple.

·         Meal 4: Protein Bar (Quest) with some almonds.

·         Meal 5: Plain Greek yogurt with stevia, protein powder, and peanut butter.

·         Meal 6: Protein shake before bed.

 

Dr. Harriet Davis shares her training schedule for a competition:

 

·         Monday: cardio (am/pm). Gym: legs (quads, inner/outer thighs), abs

·         Tuesday: cardio (am/pm). Gym: shoulders, arms (biceps, triceps), abs

·         Wednesday: cardio (am/pm). Gym: (hump day): glutes, hamstrings.

·         Thursday: cardio (am/pm). Gym: total body workout.

·         Friday: cardio (am/pm). Gym: legs, abs, back

·         Saturday: REST DAY!

·         Sunday: cardio (am/pm). Track workout (sprints, high knees, etc)

 

Kristine Lee MacIntyre’s vegan meal plan for leaning out:

 

My meal plan for eight weeks leading up to a competition:

 

·         Meal 1: Vegan protein powder prepared with water and a half cup each frozen berries and baby spinach.

·         Meal 2: 1/3 cup oats or cream of wheat prepared with 1 cup water and half a banana, dash of cinnamon.

·         Meal 3: Vegan protein powder prepared with water and a half cup each frozen berries and baby spinach.

·         Meal 4: 4 oz tofu or other vegan protein such as tempeh, soy based ground round or veggie burgers, or white fish (such as sole, cod or halibut), 1/2 cup carbs (such as 1/2 cup sweet potato, brown rice, bulgar or quinoa) 1/2 cup greens (such as asparagus, green beans, broccoli or brussel sprouts). Remember to omit the use of seasonings containing salt and fats.

·         Meal 5: Vegan protein bar (either homemade or bought such as Square Bar, 22 Days or Vega Sport) or my homemade Vital wheat gluten muffins, and half a vegan protein shake.

·         Meal 6: 4 oz tofu or other vegan protein such as tempeh, soy based ground round or veggie burgers, or white fish (such as sole, cod or halibut), 1/2 cup carbs (such as 1/2 cup sweet potato, brown rice, bulgar or quinoa) 1/2 cup greens (such as asparagus, green beans, broccoli or brussel sprouts). Remember to omit the use of seasonings containing salt and fats.

·         Meal 7: Vegan protein shake and six natural almonds.

 

Notes:

 

·         Make sure to drink at least five to six glasses of water a day.

·         Coffee or tea with unsweetened non-dairy milk and no sweeteners.

·         I do allow myself to have one cheat meal a week limiting the calories of this meal to 400.

·         The diet does get stricter at six weeks out, and then again at two weeks out with no cheat meal.

 

Stefanie Dawn keeps her meal plan simple before competing:

 

I started off high carb with a ratio of 70/20/10 (CARB/PRO/FAT) and ended up being somewhere around 25/35/40 when I switched coaches. I started with zero supplements, and ended up having to incorporate B12, BCAAs, glutamine, and electrolytes.

 

My average day consisted of:

 

·         Oats with a scoop of protein powder

·         Green veggies with tofu or black bean burger

·         Avocados

·         Pinto beans

·         Spoonfuls of peanut butter

·         2 more protein shakes

 

Q: What advice would you give someone struggling with the protein concept?

 

“I feel so much better when I don’t focus on protein intake, but adequate calorie intake and nutritional density. If you don’t think you can perform or build muscle without high protein, try high carb for a few months [during off season].”

 

Marzia Prince (Ms. Bikini Universe) explains why a competition diet can only be done short-term: 

 

Whether you are a meat-eater, vegetarian, or vegan, I believe a competition diet is short-term. You can’t live on that diet forever. It is missing important nutrients and calories to sustain life. It can be done only for a shoot or competition to achieve a certain look. You want to live life to the fullest and nourish your body every day.

 

“There’s definitely an advantage to being a plant-based athlete, I’m leaner and more muscular compared to when I was eating meat.”

 

I never have to worry about gaining a ton of weight on the “off-season.” I’m only 5 lbs. off from a shoot or stage. I adjust my nutrition to my goals. As a trainer, I believe the body is always changing. You are not going to look the same at 30 years-old than you do at 40 years-old. Things change. Goals change. Life changes.

 

Zoe Feuerstein shares the positive benefits of competing:

 

I’m passionate about fitness and creating positive change in my own. I’ve see the power of it my whole life.

 

“It has saved myself, and others, from downward turns in life such as addiction, depression, and loss of joy.”

 

I decided to compete because I liked the idea of having a goal that would test my limits physically, mentally, and expand my knowledge on training and nutrition. I was inspired by Layne Norton and his clients, such as Femme Fittale.

 

I was introduced to them when friends at my local gym suggest that I compete. I loved that it connected me with others in the industry and pushed me to be my own personal best.
