Goals:
Main Goal:
Transform My Body
Goal (Overall):
On a quest to get BUFF! My eye is on the prize, nothing and nobody will stop me!! Get out of my way!!!
Goal (Long):
I've never been lean, ripped, or had that bodybuilder look. I've always looked like a linebacker carrying that extra 20-30 pounds. I know I've got some muscle under there somewhere. I need to get rid of the body fat to show it off. So my goal is to get to 10% body fat and show off my body whenever I get a chance.
Weight Goal:
I want to LOSE 20 lb
Bodyfat Goal:
10%

.FitnessBabee. [ BodySpace ]
Babee looks great just the way she is...but like me, she strives for something else. To unlock her "true" potential, to be the person that she knows she can be. That is very inspiring to me! She has made excellent progress on her body & I believe she is the real deal!! She is definitely my "FitnessBabee"...
ahollis4858 [ BodySpace ]
There are so many words that I could use to describe this wonderful lady, but the one word that best fits is....."AMAZING". She has accomplished so much in her journey of health and fitness, but there is so much more that she WILL accomplish. She is determined, driven, and no matter what happens in her life, she stays committed to building her "Brick House". Ashley, you are a special person. You are ALWAYS in my thoughts and you will ALWAYS be in my heart....

How many days per week do you do cardio?
6
- Updated Feb 11, 2009 11:01am

What is your favorite cardiovascular exercise? Why?
Stationary bike. I feel like I've taken a beating when I ride with the right intensity. It just feels like I've done something.
- Updated Feb 11, 2009 11:01am

Do you monitor your heart rate while doing cardio?
Yes
Do you use a heart rate monitor? Which one?
The heart rate grip handles on the cardio machine.
What heart rate do you aim for while doing cardio? Why?
75% heart rate. Its a good pace for me and I feel like I burn fat at this pace.
