Rachel McLish has always been my idol ever since I saw her on the cover of Muscle & Fitness Magazine She's the reason I got into bodybuilding.
Over the years I have never had any goals, just go to the gym, lift weights and try to stay in shape. Never really ate proper or took supplements when I was supposed to.
Well it's time for me to finally achieve my goals and get serious. I did the Body For Life Challenge in April 2008 and then competed for the first time in November, 2008 at the age of 42. Never underestimate yourself. Never say never because it's NEVER too late.
Why I Love It:
It keeps me strong and healthy and I feel great after.
How I Stay Motivated:
All of my friends on BB.com keep me motivated and I love to help others achieve their goals too.
BB Accomplishments:
Placed 2nd in Medium Class and Masters in the 2008 NGA Natural Diamond Classic

What type of injury was it? How long were you injured? How did you recover?
Pulled my hamstring about 2 1/2 years ago. I was stretching between sets and I actually heard it pop. I couldn't walk for weeks because my leg wouldn't extend forward. It took months for it to heal and actually stopped doing legs after that. I just started doing a regular leg workouts 5 weeks ago (mostly due to laziness!) I did do leg extensions (most machine exercises but no squats)Pulled my hamstring about 2 1/2 years ago. I was stretching between sets and I actually heard it pop.

What is the most common reason that somebody gets injured while lifting?
Not warming up properly and not doing the exercise properly.
I'm finished my shows for now. I placed 2nd in Masters and 2nd in Open. Janelle beat me again. She beat me last year. She actually looks like that all year round. Just genetically gifted I guess. I'm still recovering from the trip. I'll be back in the gym on Wednesday but I...
