I started teaching aerobics for the free gym membership (I was a cardio junkie). The pink dumbbells were my friends!! Then I got serious in 2007. I started lifting consistently and overhauled my eating habits!! That made all the difference in the world!! You really are what you eat!
Why I Love It:
I love the feeling of my body changing and adapting. I love feeling strong and capable. I love the looks I get from my husband. I love my teenage sons bragging about me...I just love it!!
How I Stay Motivated:
My husband (Diver_Dave) is my biggest motivator and supporter. He believes in me and pushes me to go beyond that plateau.
BB Accomplishments:
Losing 25 pounds of UGLY fat!! Oh, and finally doing real no-sh!t pull-ups!!

What Xercisegrl Is Up To:
Nov 28, 2009
Xercisegrlupdated Fit Status "Motivated but so hard to stay focused! Lots going on right now!!"
To stop stressing about what I CAN'T do and start celebrating what I CAN!!
Goal (Long):
With my recent health issues, I've had to change the way I workout. I attribute much of my being able to maintain current fitness levels to yoga. So I am now actively pursuing becoming an RYT (registered yoga teacher).I still lift(and always will!!) and will continue my "bodybuilder" training...just with a new emphasis! I still hope to one day compete and will continue to eat and train like an athlete. To all of you with health issues, PLEASE don't give up!!
I...[QUOTE=Roman476BC] Want to lick your tummy :P [/QUOTE]
I decided to copy what the other ladies are doing and post inappropriate comments that are Pm'd to me. How many times do I have to say it?!! I am a VERY happily married woman!! I'm on here for motivation from others and hopefully...
I do a six day split Sunday- Friday.
Sun= Back
Mon= Legs...heavy(!)
Tues= Chest
Wed= Arms
Thurs= Legs (intense circuit w/ plyometrics!)
Fri= Shoulders
Sat= Rest (FINALLY!)
So how do you find time to train and look that good with all those classes. I know it is hard to teach and be focused on your own workout. And I've had lots of teachers that didn't look anything like you so I know you can't just teach and be in your shape.
First and foremost it's great to see that you put your family first and that you put it right out there! My wife and I are a similar duo both on body space as well! So happy to see a wife / husband duo. nupeman & girlontherun. BTW your abs look great! Keep up the excellent work!
Angela!!! How are you my friend? :) Your house closing date has passed and I hope all went well. And how are you feeling and how is training? I guess you will have to find a new gym now? Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family :) Enjoy you new home and my best to Dave on his retirement!
I love your pics and your goal, looking good..Also i changed my avi pic to show my glute and hams.What do you think? i would also appreciate any feed back of other poses I could do...
