I have been an athlete all my life. I have wanted to compete for years, but "life" happened. I am now recovering from 2 back surgeries in a 3 year span. Over the past 3 years, I slipped away from training and put on some extra "baggage"...
I stepped onstage for the first time in April 2008. I knew that there was a competitor inside me, I just had to get my feet wet. Now that I know my potential, I am on my way...
Why I Love It:
I love being fit, but I want to be lean. I love the thought of transforming my body from a chubby girl to a fit, lean girl. I LOVE a fit physique, whether male or female. You need to look like you take care of yourself. I love walking into a room and hear people saying... "She MUST work out."
How I Stay Motivated:
When I see results, I am SUPER motivated. I have (what I believe is..) great will power. I do not fall from grace easily. I try to surround myself with positive people also... I have friends in the industry and they (unknowingly) keep me motivated.
BB Accomplishments:
2008 NPC Upper O
2nd place Figure Master's Division
3rd place Figure Open Class D

Ha ha... I am glad I took this one, it's ridiculous... 181.5 pounds
Getting ready to start training for my 2nd competition. I got my feet wet, now I'm ready to roll...
Goal (Long):
My goal now is to put on some lean body mass, uncover the abs, and get down to some lean, mean conditioning...
I will be stepping onstage again in September...I will be more lean in the abdominals and ready for anything thrown my way...
Watch me....
I use a Strive Bicep Curl machine and concentrated curls to best hit my biceps.

What tricep workout has worked best for you?
Eyeballers and rope press downs seem to hit great. I also use a close and a wide grip for a little splash of variety...lol

What calf workout has worked best for you?
I don't work my calves much, but they are very "pronounced"...lol I use the standing calf raise machine. I also stand on the edge of a platform and drop my heel (one at a time) using my own bodyweight.I don't work my calves much, but they are very "pronounced"...lol I use the standing calf raise machine.

Why I like this video: 2006 Mr. Olympia... Cutler and Coleman... It is INCREDIBLE the way their muscles POP during their poses... They look like TRANSFORMERS!!! Unbelievable...
Well, tomorrow will be the end of my 6th week dieting. The first week was tough, getting used to the weighing (which I did INCORRECTLY for about 4 weeks) and only lost minimal weight... It was my TOM too, so I know that had something to do with it..lol Anyway.... After learning that you...
I love animal pump. It's the only createan/NO complex I can take. There products are awesome and animalpak.com has a ton of usefull info. How has the training been?
I knew that you would have fun. Four months is time to hit up problem areas. Now you know what you need to work on so you can adjust and focus. I already changed my routine to bring up areas in my legs and lower back. Stay Focused.
