When I Started:
Oct, 1979
How I Started:
had both arms crushed in a paper bailing machine at age 15 working after school,they wanted to cut both arms off because they were to bad,but my father said to do what you can,only with gods help I am were I am today.I have good days and bad ones,I know I can never stop working out because the pain gets worst when I take more then two weeks off at a time,so I just keep going at it,the day I cannot workout anymore will be a sad day in my life.
Why I Love It:
I started to workout because it takes the pain away that I live with every day,I like bodybuilding because its you that makes it all happen,when it all comes together....wow
How I Stay Motivated:
at age 52 thats easy,I look at men and woman that are better and older then me on stage and say I must keep going ,getting up on stage that motivates me to the max,what a rush.

Hey thanks for visiting1 Sorry I took so long to get back to you. Right now I am trying to put on some mass and revisit the Oct 09 NPC Natural Northern USA - I'd like to take the Middleweight Class and move up the Masters Ranks - just need a little time and a lot of hard work! Good luck with your 2009 goals!
you're kidding. I just checked out your photos and they are awesome.Your arms really are beautiful! From your earliest pics to the most recent, the only difference is your overall size. You look leaner now than then. But that's not a bad thing. You must have had some wonderful doctors who put you back together. What a painful thing to have gone through.. but you did it and look at you now! Amazing - you are an inspiration!

What ya talking about that is a tan!!
LOL!! I can't wait to surprise people! I'm getting sprayed Friday and topcoated Saturday morning. Thanks for your support!!
OMG.. your story is incredible.Thank God your dad made the decision he did when you were young. You have done the seemingly impossible and my hat is off to you. Thank you for such inspiration! Keep up the awesome work.
By the way - your arms look amazing both now and when you were in your 20s. Great Job!
hugs,
Maxine
