When I Started:
Feb, 2007
How I Started:
I have always been a fit and active gal, I've loved running for as long as I can remember. I have a real passion for weight training. For me this is a lifestyle choice and something that I truly love and enjoy.
Why I Love It:
Weight training has taught me how to turn my body from skinny fat to hard and defined. After having two children, training has helped me stay in shape and be fitter than I have ever been.
How I Stay Motivated:
I stay motivated by reading as much as I can get my hands on regarding training and nutrition. Other fit women also inspire me, leading a fit lifestyle and being able to run and walk without ever feeling out of breath is an absolute inspiration.
BB Accomplishments:
Well I;m not a competitive athlete, so my personal accomplishments would have to be putting on some muscle this year after trying very very very hard.I have also learnt a lot about nutrition and training this year.

This photo was taken after 3 weeks of festive indulging....
Just a side profile, was hoping to have put on more size, but I'm happy.
I read this article in August 2007 - I have shortened certain parts but for the most if you're trying to grow your calves like I am - then read on - it did change the way I work them.
quote"When I first came to America I didnt have big calves, in 1969 I visited Reg Park at his home...
Ha, you had me till- Confess it - Possess it, two things I have always tried to avoid----- and may your day have a magic moment, and then a million more.
LOL...true...
I would recommend getting it. I mean the basics of it can be found on bb.com but it is scattered all over the place. It's the best book of its kind that I have read
hey beautiful! Yeah I am doing well thanks for asking! I think I am taking today off though..I killed yesterday with back! I am hoping tomorrow I will just double it up! How is your training going?
Thank you very much. :-) You say such nice things, I am not used to it. Also I really like your blog, such intelligence. How have you been this week? Life been treating you well?
Hey there beautiful! Hope your having a great week! I yet to put up some new measurements and weight, (everything went down, yay!) but I want my boyfriend to measure me to get things as accurate as possible. 10 more days till my vacation, I've been dieting the past 3 days; is it wrong to have a funnel cake at the amusement park? ;) thanks for understanding about my family, I'm VERY protective about my family, when there is family there is everything.
Well I love you-take care
LOL, thanks! The days aren't that bad! I acutally have it made, just sitting in the AC playing on the computer all day. It was 111 Sunday so I'm thankful to be working inside! How are you?
hey mel, hows it going, hows ur training going, i wanna see those pics soon, and i wanna see that solid rock hard muscle comin thru, ive been going ok with my stuff, just had the sniffles and a bit of a cold the last two weeks, so thats slowed me down a bit, but im still managing to put on some size slowly slowly :) take care, Michael
Ahh, I haven't started to teach yet. 3 more years and then I will be. Can't wait. How's work been for you? Enjoy the weekend? (I am not sure where you are from, US or UK but if the UK hope you enjoyed the sun.)
Look forward to hearing from you soon.
Awesome. And yes, I'm doing great. Can't wait to hit the gym....just afraid of my performance with JACKED UP calves. I murdered my calves before my back/abs workout on Friday and I can't walk today. I look like one of those gangsters with a purposeful limp...except I'm in professional clothes haha I'm getting bigger though!
btw - I got the Size-On based on your recommendation. I can't wait for it to get fully saturated to start seeing the effects. It's been almost 2 weeks.
Thanks Angel...although I must admit some of the most productive times of my life have been when I am angry and unhappy. Smiling sometimes leads me down the road to complacency...is it possible I am just meant to be mean??
