Background
I have started and stopped paying attention to my body and overall health so many times. I am just tired of carrying the extra weight. And I don't plan to spend another summer in jeans. : ) (Written March 2007)
When I am consistent, I am more focused and energetic. I love the changes that I am seeing in my body and in my spirit. (Written March 2007) I love watching my body change and my feeling my strength increase. It is exhilarating and satisfying to train,work towards a goal and compete. I love the science, the will,and the discipline that it takes to be a competitor.(December 2008)

Going from a size 14 to a size 8 has me even more excited and confident that I will reach my goals. The infinite opportunities that bodybuilding/weight training offers to change, define, and redefine my body is enough to keep me on this path.
Simply put, it makes me happy.

I have been using Haulin' Hooks (above) for a couple of years. I attribute my increase in weights to the gadget. I have small wrists that tend to pop and snap when I try to go heavy. I have learned to work around this. When I am not wearing my hooks, and just wear gloves, I tie the wrist strap very tightly and be meticulous about my form. If my wrists get too sore, I know that will affect my lifts and pulls for several days to a week, depending on the severity. Haulin' Hooks took... Go to BodyBlog

I like the fact that she got intimate with her body. She got to know her body, and tweaked her routine along the way to figure out what worked for her. She constantly changed her goals, and continued knocking em out one by one. She debunked the myth that loose skin needs surgery!

Have you seen her transformation??? NUFF SAID! She seems helpful too. She was actually the reason why I created my profile. Saw her transformation on bodybuilder and her pictures encouraged me to record my progress. Cool Chic Indeed!

She made a complete transformation! Not only did she change her body but you can see that her spirit has been uplifted; notice the smiles get bigger as she "makes a change".

A Lift of Olympic Proportions
Posted in Supplements : Apr 21, 2012 10:03pmThis morning was pretty typical, I woke up and decided to do some higher volume training. My monthly "friend" decided to rear her head, yesterday, when I was wearing white capris. Luckily, she was being coy and decided not to make a huge spectacle of herself. I feel watery and a bit bloated; however, my workout was strong. I have concluded that Versa Grips are not only a tool in my fitness aresenal. They are going to be a fixture. The bar does not hang on hooks, loike with the Haulin' Hooks. Rather, the weight is cupped in my palm and supported with the padding. I could not lift

Posted in Supplements : Mar 28, 2012 6:49pmThere are sometimes that I look at my progress pictures and I am in awe. I was 185 pounds, squeezing into a 14 (because I just did not want to get into that 16), and feeling self-conscious and defeated. I was convinced that that I had to accept that I was getting older. And weght came just came with the territory. I found this site and realized that not only was my thinking flawed--but it was weak-minded. I could do better and I deserved it.
The difficult part about fitness, even with all of the benefits, is that it can feel like torture.
