My former trainer and Figure Coach, Terry Stokes asked me if I had ever thought about training for a show because he thought I had the body type to do it. I accepted his offer to train me.
My mom used to be a trainer a while ago, and I think I am just following in her footsteps.
Why I Love It:
I love the confidence that working out gives me. I feel stronger and sexier than I have ever felt in my life. I know how to be healthy and keep a healthy life. I can help other people live a healthy life.
How I Stay Motivated:
Every day it seems I see a new muscle group come out or a new muscle ripple. That's what keeps me coming back.
BB Accomplishments:
I have done 9 shows and by far the best moment was this past season when I won the figure tall division at a USBF show in Binghamton. It was the first show I had trained myself for, diet and workouts and the feeling of accomplishment was amazing.
I usually do about 4-5 sets and 8-12 reps depending on how burned out I am feeling. I am not a fan of 3 sets of 10. I feel like that's old school. I like a good warm-up set and then 3 good heavy sets. I usually finish with a lighter set and just rep it out.I usually do about 4-5 sets and 8-12 reps depending on how burned out I am feeling.

Do you currently have a workout partner?
Yes
Why do you like having a workout partner? What are the benefits?
We have a group of 8 figure girls who train together to compete together. It's both motivating and depressing sometimes!

What type of person at your gym annoys you the most? Why?
The person who interrupts me when I am trying to do my thing.
So I am not a vain person. I work out hard, but it's not something I flaunt openly all the time. BUT...10 days out from my show, I am feeling good and tight and lean and pretty ready, this is the time I let myself get a little vain. This is the only time you'll see me in the gym with just a...
Yea that's what I've done, is this is my new lifestyle and it's great. I feel so wonderful. Yea Pharmacy School will be tough but its so worth it in the end.
Nah, I don't have the time to compete. I work 40 hours a week plus I'm a full-time college student. I'm heading to pharmacy school in a year or so. :) I'm just doing this as a lifestyle change to look and feel better.
Not me, my step son plays...lol. I really like BF. Thanks for showing me the place. I've been having great work outs too. Diet has been pretty good also. Maybe I'll see you there over the w/e.
It's always good to get away. I worked out at BF Sat. & Sun. Probably will go tomorrow evening too. I'm on a one week pass. Pretty sure I'm going to switch over. That place is freaking nice!
