Reason: I have a picture of her legs and glutes in my head as my ultimate goal! I am not a competitor, so CT is a model for me of a very fit person who does not compete, but is able to stay motivated and get through life in an outstandingly fit body, just for the personal challenge of it and the general reward of being fit. This is also my motivation, and it helps me keep going to have a model out there.

Reason: I am inspired by reading her great blog, by her great attitude, and by her amazing transformation. Her enthusiasm is contagious, and the fact that she has shared her hard work has helped me challenge myself.

Reason: SmartAssard's blog is one that I check in on often. I always know that when I am working hard, she is too. Her great photos remind me that lots of muscle looks great on women, and that I can work hard, and build muscle, and know that in the end I will not only feel, but look better. Sometimes as I see my body changing, it is scary seeing all that muscle begin to emerge--but when I see it in pics of other muscular women who look feminine, I know that I am not going too far!
