What Carla Hampshire Is Up To:
Nov 26, 2009
Carla Hampshirechanged Overall Goal: ""When everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it." Henry Ford."
At this point I had NO idea that I would be competing this year. A trainer challenged me to join him in a 12-week pre-contest diet he was doing, just to see what it was like, and to go home and take pictures. This would be the beginning of a great journey. 122 lbs...21.1%BF!
Nov 7th, 2009 IDFA Canadian Classic V & Pro Universe in Toronto (3rd place). It was an amazing experience to step on the PRO stage for the first time. I weighed about 108lbs at 8.7%bf
Here's a brief video of my unforgettable experience http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dtEWQ_ASvC4
DEDICATION!!! From only a few short months ago till now, the changes have been astounding. Once the decision to change was made, you put your heart and soul into research on everything bodybuilding, fitness and nutrition. You are living proof of what I've always believed; the iron has the ability to not only change one physically, but to improve all other areas of life. The tide is high; ride the wave! Proud of you son!

STICK TO YOUR TASK
Stick to your task 'til it sticks to you;
Beginners are many, but enders are few.
Honor, power, place and praise
Will come, in time, to the one who stays.
Stick to your task 'til it sticks to you;
Bend at it, sweat at it, smile at it, too.
For out of the bend and the...
LOL, yes I know that's who you are- it was a compliment to you and I had to laugh as I wrote that. I was pretty sure no matter how good you looked, I couldn't get in too much trouble with your forum signature like it is.
Love the Ford quote. So where is that beautiful AVI taken? BTW my wife and daughters enjoyed your video. Very inspiring- such fluid but strong movements.
Oh boy that latest profile picture is fantastic. I like it because it's a wonderful picture of you plus I'm a huge fan of mountains and glaciers, (from long ago). I also like the two airplanes shown in the distance - speaks volumes.
Great quote Carla!! And whenever our pictures get here, we have to get them up right away! And that is such an awesome picture, it looks epic! Where is that from?
Thank you very much Carla! You look amazing. I bust my butt everyday in everything and just do the best I can. There is always room for improvements ;)
God Bless

"friendly rivalry" aren't strong enough words to describe what a war its gonna be on stage next year haHAhHAhHAha!!!!!!!! since we don't see each other really often since he's based in b.c. lets say we get ourselves pumped up trough facebook AhAHHAHhAHA and nag one another to see who's gonna come out on top :P
Haha thanks Carla! One of the other pros told me to really emphasize my legs since he said I had that over the other guy. Also, the photographer called yesterday and said he sent out the pictures! Will definitely get some up when they get here.
