Always athletic, played baseball, soccer, and ran cross country (parents wouldn't let me play football) so I just spent time trying to get stronger and faster for baseball and soccer.
Why I Love It:
It is my passion. It is my escape.
How I Stay Motivated:
I just do. I'm passionate, extreme, and some people consider me obsessed... therefore motivation is never an issue.
BB Accomplishments:
Powerlifting:
2007: APA World Record Full Meet 242 RAW class
Trying to get up to 260-270 with a bf of 12-14% before dieting down starting mid June next year to make a run at the qualifiers around a weight of 220-224 late 2009.
Phase1 of my HvH program is usually 15-20 reps per set... to condition and get the muscular endurance up. Phase2 of my HvH program is 4-12 reps to get the strength and mass up.

How long do you rest between sets on average? Why?
Phase1 of HvH - hardly any rest at all... again trying to force adaptation, work the endurance, and bring cardio levels up. Phase2 of HvH - a lot more rest as trying to push more weight

What celebrity body would you most like to have? Why?
When I was a pro wrestler... Chris Benoit. Overall in BBing I like the look of Darrem Charles or Kevin Levrone as they hold mass and have good proportioning/detail.

Hi Ben.impressive transformation.excellent symmetry,size and leanness.I wish you great success in what ever you do in 2008 and first of all in your next competition.stay strong.EROS
Aww, well I guess if there ever was a reason to put competing on hold, that'd be it! Sooo happy for you! And that's great that your friend is competing in fitness too! I wish more girls would get into it, but I can understand why they're all flocking to figure - it's far less demanding on the body. I mean, when you consider how many years I've done gymnastics (since age 6) I'm an old lady by the sport's standards now! Haha!
