I have always been into sports, volleyball, tennis, surfing, etc. So working out was a part of my life but what truly got me started in the "bodybuilding world" was meeting my amazing husband, Layne.
Why I Love It:
My passion and motivation comes from knowing how much this sport has brought to Layne’s life. Meeting and getting to know people in this sport along with their trials and tribulations is truly inspiring.
How I Stay Motivated:
My desire to compete.
BB Accomplishments:
I guess my biggest accomplishment in this sport woulb be, to be a part of Layne's web-cast. It's really cool!Also pushing 500 lbs on a leg press and doing rack chins with 65 lbs DBs!! :)!

Legs days are not my favorite days, but I get it done! I injured my lower back about a year ago and was unable to squat for the longest time. My husband recently purchased a safety squt bar and I love it! So I have been using that along with single legged lunges on a smith machine. I also do leg extensions, leg curls, stiff legged deadlifts and glute ham raises. Now those are harder than they look! :-)Legs days are not my favorite days, but I get it done!

I train my biceps twice a week, one day will be to failure and the next more hight reps lower weights. I usually do:cambered bar curls or alternating dumbbell curls,cable curls, preacher curls, or concentration curls.

What back workout has worked best for you?
I usually split my back days into two days, I will focus on widening one day and in thickening the next. Here are some of the exercises that I do: Wide and narrow grip cable rows, dumbbell pullovers, semi-wide grip pull ups, dead lifts, pull-ups. My favorite work out for back has to be weighted rack chins. Super setting those with narrow or wide grip pull downs.

Aww well thank you so much! I so can't wait until that day comes lol. Hey how long have you been training? Also what is your usual warm-up set if you don't mind me asking?
Thankyou Isabel :) I will work as hard as I can to represent our team at the fall shows. My days are running into each other..I even logged last Friday's leg workout as Tuesday! LOL! How are you??
I am back from IFBB SA’s. I got a controversial 3rd place. I don’t want to go in to the whole issue. The decision has been made and nothing can change it. No need for me to rumble on about the issue. I have uploaded photos and the top 3 comparisons under my progress pics. I also uploaded my posing routine under the video clips. I say the truth lies in the pictures. Please check it out and let me know what you think. My competition weight was a rock hard 229.9lbs.
