Monterey H S Attended 1990 to 1993 Lubbock, Texas United States
When I Started:
Jan, 1995
How I Started:
Initially, I just wanted to lose a little weight back when I was 18 and one thing led to another. I got started working out at home with TaeBo Advanced then eventually ventured into the weight room. I started throwing some weights around and eventually, I began doing figure competitions. I have been steadily living a fitness life for 16 years now.
Why I Love It:
It is a constant challenge and gives me something to look forward to every day.
How I Stay Motivated:
To me, staying motivated has much to do with how you live your life on a day-to-day basis. The basis of motivation is consistently keeping things positive. Along with this, believing in myself, dismissing any self doubts and replacing them with positive thoughts, always setting new goals, reflecting on past experiences, and compliments from others are a few things that keep me motivated.
My current success would not be possible without my great trainer, Jeremy Minihan. He keeps me highly motivated. It is so wonderful knowing that I have found a trainer who specializes in figure and who I can completely trust to help guide me to my next competition.
Thanks, I appreciate the friend add. Continued success to you in accomplishing all your life and fitness goals. Take care and enjoy the rest of your week.
