When I Started:
Mar, 2008
How I Started:
Rachel McLish is who really got me interested in wanting to learn about body building, but I never did anything to create that kind of physique. I was always active and athletic, so I never worried about what I ate. I let myself go for a while after I graduated college. Continuing to eat crap, not exercising as much as I used to, plus, being a graphic artist sitting at a computer for 9 hours a day did a great job at helping me gain 20 pounds. I got into shape off and on over the years, but was never consistent. After I had my 3 kids, I wanted my body back, and I wanted to fulfill a dream I had which was to compete in a triathlon. I trained for 6 months and I competed. So, after realizing I could accomplish something like that, I have the confidence to accomplish the other dream I've always had which is to have a lean and defined physique.
Why I Love It:
Gives me a sense of accomplishment.
How I Stay Motivated:
BB.com. Just knowing this is what I have to do to provide me with the best quality of life now and in the years to come.
BB Accomplishments:
12/08 I did 500 REAL pushups in 1 hour 45 minutes (next goal is to beat time). ------ 3/2/09 500 pushups in 1 hour 18 minutes. 3/3/09 500 squats 17 minutes. 3/5/09 250 pullups in 2 hours 2 minutes. 3/6/09 1/4 mile walking lunges 21 minutes. ------ 6/29/09 500 pushups in 58 minutes. 6/30/09 1,000 squats in 29 minutes. 7/2/09 250 pullups in 58 minutes. 7/3/09 1/2 mile walking lunges in 28 minutes.

Name one person, woman or man, who can do as many pullups as she's done. She has class, strength, and beauty. Much to be inspired by.

His progress is inspiration enough, but he's also great about giving advice and sharing information that helps keep me on track.

OMFG excuse me while I curl up outside and let the vultures eat me.

After yesterday, I was so steaming mad about my push up time that I was NOT about to let myself off the hook at all.

So I made sure I was going to beat my time for squats.  I completed it in 21 minutes.  The last time I...
