Alright! Getting into the fitness lifestyle can be difficult for alot of ppl, especially those of us that were raised on greasy meat and potatoes, or even hamburger helper and puffed rice cereal. That's how it was for me when I was younger, with 6 siblings it's hard to get great nutrition with parents on a strict budget.
Later though, my mother decided to get back into the swing of things. She used to compete in bodybuilding in the late '80s placing top three in all of the shows she participated in. She even won a "best poser" trophy which she values most. She was good. Great abs, a huge back and she could do weighted dips with more than some men. Sure she got accused of using steroids but it was all just determination and blood and guts workout routines. She ran close to 10 miles every day and practiced her routines for hours before each show.
She is my ultimate inspiration. She taught me correct form in the small middle school gym I started at. There wasn't much in there but there was enough.
I was overweight in school, I got made fun of and boys never asked me to hang out, or go out. I was depressed, as I'm sure most of us are at a tender age when what people think of us matters so much. I decided to make a change.
At age 15 I started running, at first I could barely run a quarter mile but I set large rocks, fence lines or power poles as my next goal and I made them! The first time I could run from my house to a reservoir over a mile uphill, I did the Rocky with my arms in the air and yelled. I was so excited! I love the feeling of reaching my goals. I started doing so with my weights and will continue to do that. It feels good to know you've made it.
IF YOU'RE GOING TO DOUBT SOMETHING, DOUBT YOUR LIMITS.
Why I Love It:
If I didn't have the weight room, I would be a wreck! Stress is everywhere and it feels good to go throw around some heavy weight and kick your own ass.
How I Stay Motivated:
Sometimes I falter, just like everyone else. So I make sure to mix things up when I feel the over training creeping up. I also have cut pictures out of magazines and stuck them to my wall, my mirror, my fridge, my car (!) and even the background of my phone. I've got to remind myself every day that that damn french bread isn't worth it.
BB Accomplishments:
HOW ABOUT GETTING STARTED?! THAT'S THE TOUGHEST PART AND ANYONE THAT STARTS BETTER BE DAMN PROUD OF WHAT THEY'RE COMMITTED TO!
I placed sixth in the 08 Mountain States competition.
AND 2ND IN THE 09 MR & MS UTAH TALL FIGURE. YEAH BABY, YEAH!

Goal (Long):
We all think we have some limitations on what we think you can do and become. We've got to doubt those limits, not our potential.
Ok I love working my legs- I always have. I wanted to switch things up following Christmas so I was doing higher reps with my kettlebell training and weight was much lighter. I got sore- no doubt about that but I was yearning for the deep, can barely sit kind of sore that I only seem to...
lol dang! hating on my colts lol. nah it was a good game but our defense really didnt do what i expected. its all good. ;)
ill still wear my colts jersey proudly lol
