My first introduction to the weight room happened when i was 19 and working out with a former Ms Alberta!!! She introduced me to weights and i was in love!!
Why I Love It:
My passion for lifting weights has lead to becoming a Personal Trainer and being able to help others reach for their goals! I love feeling strong and how my body looks with Goddess Curves!!
How I Stay Motivated:
My two kids (Chel and Gman I could never do it without you two!!) and my super uber fit friend (Doc your are da bomb) keep me motivated!! Wholistic health if very important to me and a healthy body is very much apart of being a whole person!...BOTH my brothers have served in Iraq and watching the strength they have had to survive Iraq, to survive being soldiers...has given me the extra drive to NEVER whine or miss a workout!! They are my hero's!!
BB Accomplishments:
SABBA Amateur April 5th 2008 - 3rd Place Figure Tall
When my son was born i was at the end of a bad marriage and let my weight get very high. My biggest accomplishment has been loosing 100lbs and being in the position to compete in my first competion this spring!! I just completed an interview with The Fit Republic ...www.TheFitRepublic.com you can view it at http://thefitrepublic.tv/wordpress/?p=7

Have you ever had a lifting injury?
Yes
What type of injury was it? How long were you injured? How did you recover?
I had a shoulder injury three years ago that knocked back my training for 3 months. And i also dropped a decline bench press bar on my chin doing chin-ups off the bar! That hurt like hell and i had a bruise like i had been punched in the chin for 2 weeks! Very deep bruising!I had a shoulder injury three years ago that knocked back my training for 3 months.

What is the most common reason that somebody gets injured while lifting?
I love spring!! The weather is so gorgeous and perfect for outdoor workouts!! Not too hot or cold right now! And since my kids are home for Easter break....my daughter and I decided to head to the park for some crossfit with my daughter!!
Damn girl!! Smokin hot AVI!!!! I tried another crossfit gym yesterday- I think it's the one for me... they do personalized goal setting and nutrition set up AND they take progressive progress pics/bodyfat
WOW! You really do love it!! I'm getting 6 months of crossfit for my bday! I'm so excited. I have another 50lbs to lose do you think xfit will help? Have you seen many changes in your body since you started doing xfit?
Hey crossfit chick! I am amazed by your progress!!! You look freaking AMAZING!! I'm going to join a crossfit gym this week so I'm all excited- hopefully I can lose the rest of this weight with crossfit.
I had to stay up for some really not so fun stuff...lol...well going back to bed. All is well here. Still breathing...havent ground and centered in forever. Night V
