Always been athletic. Have a Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do (was Jr. Olympic Champion & almost made the Olympic Team trials by one-tenth of a point. I've also run several marathons. Love all kinds of sports. Used to lift a lot in my early-late teens, but then became very ill w/ a GI disease, which prevented me from essentially working out/life. Began lifting again in early and mid-20s off and on. Was inspired by a friend very recently to transform my body now that I am healthy during last week of August and so... :)
Why I Love It:
It's healthy for the mind and body, aside from striving to look fantastic.
How I Stay Motivated:
I realize that I have the capacity to change myself for the better & I am not limited (physically), therefore, I should maximize my potential!

I had been battling Anorexia- I did not want to go through that hell again (inpatient hospitalizations and such). I took it to an extreme, having been an over-exerciser, getting to very low weight(s) and then, having to be brought back to life (in essence) by...
I have seriously been a slacker and it sucks. There's no rewards when you're lazy and inactive...at least not for me! Here's a little visual reminder to get my butt in gear.
REALLY NEED to work on glutes and abs!
...Gain Muscle & Lose fat/Transform my body into something amazing!
Goal (Long):
I am studying to be a Sports Psychologist. As a former Elite Athlete, I wish to work with both Elite Athletes and Olympians, assisting them in their physical and mental pursuits.
Confucius said, "Do not worry about holding high position; worry rather about playing your proper ROLE." -- I am a firm believer in doing what is best for oneself and maximizing [your] potential where/when [you] can. It is a gift to be a leader for others when [you] possess natural talent/ability. Be the best YOU that YOU can be!
I am not a hypocrite (I admit)...I don't like the words: "okay," "average," "moderate," etc.; Although, the delicate acuity required to seek the results that I desire is far more difficult a task than being either completely lax or extremely over-worked. Dare I utter the word, "balance"(?), yet with absolute dedication!
incredible work ethic! extremely dedicated to her fitness endeavors and commitment to improving, which she has so clearly done for herself. Her precision and devotion is so commendable and admirable. I am in awe of her miraculous progress. She works hard and deserves the outstanding results!
You cannot find a more motivating individual than Micah! He's the most genuine, hard-working, devoted, caring (& WAY more!) man you will ever meet. He has put forth the most admirable effort into his life & fitness endeavors and deserves the wonderful successes that are to come as a result. I was inspired by Micah the very first time I met him to be a better person and athlete & his rich words have made a great impact on me. His fantastic training program has shown to be incredibly e
My GI illness has flared up really badly over the last month and a half and I've been on a liquid-only (medically supervised) diet for over a week now. It is awful. I haven't been able to workout and I've lost a considerable amount of muscle mass. I have to slowly transition back into eating...
Obviously, one of my weakest points is that I don't lead a balanced life-- which is why I haven't taken a moment to CALL YOU!!!!!!!!!! lol... I'm always on the fly! Gonna change that soon. It's time I start balancing this life. Hope all is going well with you. xo
lol, you're so sweet. No need to worry about lil old me. Just got a strained back, what feels like a broken foot, a body that wants to do nothing but store fat, and quads and traps that won't stop growing!!!!!! Ahhh! We need to talk.
That is a wonderful compliment coming from you. It has always been a goal of mine to be helpful in someway to others - I didn't realize the impact that first video would have - my life has changed so much just in the desire to inspire others - thank you for the uplifting words
