Background

When I Started: Mar 2007
HOW I STARTED:

I walked into a gym for the first time in my life in December of 1997. It was to purchase a membership for my husband as a Christmas gift. I had no idea what awaited me there, or how my life was about to change. A trainer took me for a tour of the facilities. I was mesmerized. I just couldn't leave. Something happened to me that day. The IRON called to me. I knew I HAD to be a part of this. Needless to say, I started training there as well. The PASSION began and continued strong over the ensuing years. I read every book and magazine the library had to offer on BODYBUILDING and NUTRITION. I had a strong desire to learn this new language called BODYBUILDING: sets/reps, concentric/eccentric...I was hungry! The more I learned, the STRONGER I became. I began to realize that competing as a bodybuilder was something I wanted to do. It would be another 9 years before I would have the COURAGE to compete; I was too timid for that! First, I had to make sure this was the RIGHT THING TO DO, not only for myself, but I was concerned about how this decision would impact my family. I took my question to the Lord in PRAYER; and the answer HUMBLED me greatly. There would be more to this BODYBUILDING JOURNEY than just competing. This would be a way for me to reach out to others as well. I enlisted my husband's support and within 12 weeks, I was standing on a bodybuilding stage COMPETING for the very first time, finally realizing a DREAM! This was June of 2007. The story continues...

WHY I LOVE IT:

BODYBUILDING makes me feel on TOP OF THE WORLD; like I can do anything. The inner strength you develop through bodybuilding helps in all aspects of life.

FELLOW ATHLETES

Posted in Training  :  Mar 22, 2012 12:11pm

A great thing about this sport is being part of the bodybuilding community. I believe in surrounding myself with positive people; people with similar goals and aspirations. Bodybuilders are among some of the happiest, most down-to-earth and hard-working people I know. There is a lot of support and a spirit of camaraderie that goes on backstage, in the gym and also in the online communities. I have formed strong bonds with fellow athletes over the years. It’s such a pleasure to be part of one another’s journeys. I feel greatly privileged to have such amazing friends and supporters worldwide.

Today marks exactly 5 years since I dove into the competitive Bodybuilding pool...head first :)


Twelve weeks later I was standing under the stagelights at my very first competition.

thenaturalone
thenaturalone Thank you Carla! I think this team is a perfect fit for me! I decided not to drop to the 180 lb class, I think I will lose too much power getting that light, that quick! I'm going to go in around 190 in the 198 class. Competition will be tougher but that's ok. How is your week going? Mar 22, 2012 7:02pm
Azza87
Azza87 Hey Carla, answer to your question...long story short my other half is Canadian. so part she wanted to go home and part work needed me in the Calgary office to help build things up. But the end game is back home is Australia but just the timeline is not set. thanks for the kind words. have a great day. Mar 22, 2012 8:28am
