I placed 2nd in my weight class at my first National Show!

Goal (Long):
Add some thickness to my back and build my lower lats. Build my hamstrings and glutes and to generally grow all over. Would like to stay Middleweight class..
I usually do 3-4 sets with 4-10 reps. When going heavy, I usually pyramid 8,6,4. When I'm maintaining while dieting, I usually do straight reps of 10 at 3-4 sets

30 seconds to a minute, depending on the muscle being trained.

What celebrity body would you most like to have? Why?
None, I am happy with myself and think I train hard and eat clean to achieve that. I like my body the way it is!
For all exercises to keep the muscle under tension:
Light weight to get 20 reps- then start a drop set. Heavy weight to get 12-15 reps, drop 5-10 pounds- do 10-12 reps, drop 5-10 pounds- reps til failure.
Monday- Arms- Exercises include- Incline dumbbell curls, EZ Bar curls, hammer curls,...
Hello there, all is good but I sure need a bit of a boost of motivation. I am going to the gym but eating is a bit off. That makes a world of differance as you well know. You look great as always and have a great week Sherri, Thanks for the message. Kind regards, Dyanna
Just dropping you a quick Hello. Hope your training is good and hope we stay good over the holiday season that is approaching. To train or to eat pumpkin pie, that is the question:) Take card, Dyanna
Well there was only one more girl to compete against but I won. =) Next for me is Jr USAs. We will be working with Dave Palumbo through the off season and contest prep. I hope to make big improvements. I am so excited. I may be the only HW there. lol
Hey girl I've been meaning to ask you, where did you get your posing suits from? Especially the ones from Jr USAs. Boyfriend and I plan on doing that show next year. =)
