Background
When I Started: Nov 1996
HOW I STARTED:
I was never very good at sports growing up, but I always wanted to be athletic. I started weight training and getting involved in fitness because it didn't require any hand-eye coordination ;)
WHY I LOVE IT:
I feel it is the most natural high you can experience.

Crystal inspires me not only in my fitness goals but in my everyday life. She gives me strength and words of encouragement when I am weak. Although she still hasn't made an impact on my eating habits, I know she is trying :-) Having a gorgeous fit girlfriend makes any man want to train harder, look better and be better.

1st Place in My Height Class and I Made My Nephew Proud :)
Posted in Training : Mar 10, 2011 12:08pmWoo Hoo! I seriously felt like Miss America, lol. I've never been crowned before. How fun!!! I think even did the whole, "Me? Really? Me?" and jumped up and down a little bit when they called out my name. Another top moment was being able to show my nephew Raiden my trophy. Unfortunately you had to be 21 to go to the show, so he couldn't come, but I rushed back to the hotel (after hitting the buffet) and showed him. He was so proud of me, and pretty much told me I was the coolest ever. I felt like his super hero for a moment...priceless.

The Mother of All Timing...
Posted in Training : Dec 28, 2010 9:37pmWTF?! I catch a cold NOW? REALLY?! Grrrrr............ This always happens after I work a trade show like the Olympia - I get sick. Even when I stack up on the Airborne - I get sick. So now here it is, two days before the competition, and I feel like poo. At least Mr. Hankey is smiling - I'm not :(.

I woke up yesterday feeling off, but went to the gym anyways, lifted chest and did cardio on the bike because at least I got to sit down. The recumbent bike is awesome if you honestly, absolutely do not want to do cardio. It's not as effective as other forms of cardio, b...
Olympia Recap & Aftermath
Posted in Training : Dec 28, 2010 9:37pmWell I officially sucked at keeping up with my blog at the Olympia, but at least I stayed up on my workouts. I'm glad to be back, so I can get back on track before the competition this weekend. We had a dinky gym at our hotel, so I was a good girl and got to bed early enough to do am cardio (yes, I was called a sellout). Unfortunately their weight selection sucked, so I was only able to workout shoulders and abs. The best part was the free breakfast buffet. They made omletes cooked to order and had a ton of healthy options. I would have them make me two different egg white omeletes and saved t...
