I started lifting weights when I was 12 or 13 years old to strengthen my arm for softball pitching. My dad gave me a little pink set of dumbbells, and I was hooked ever since. I fell in love with the weights and that love continues to this day!

I love the way it makes me feel when I'm lifting heavy weights, like I can conquer the world!. I love being strong and the confidence it gives. I love looking fit and muscular as a result of all the hard work I put in at the gym. The way lifting weights shapes and transforms your body and mind is amazing!
