"The shot heard 'round the world came from these guns right here! (just kidding but I plan on saying that sometime soon)"

Personal Info And Background:
Real Name: Hanni
Sex: Female
Age: 28
Location:
Occupation: Student, sales associate
Personal Website:
Gym: Key Largo (formerly Gold's)
Gym Location: Como
When I Started:
How I Started: I have always been an active girl. When I was in high school I involved myself in enough extracirricular activities to make a person's head spin. But I loved it. During my junior year of high school, my track coach introduced me to weight training. I felt so strong, and I WAS strong. In fact, I even won an arm wrestling contest at my school later that year!
My part time job was as a gymnastics instructor. I loved the job, and it gave me an awesome excuse to be active. Unfortunately, an injury from my job led to a knee surgery. I had to walk away from teaching.
Let's flash forward several years and a total of three knee surgeries later. I was overweight (almost 190 pounds on my 5'5 frame) and I was making poor decisions. My surgeon had suggested I not ever run again, to protect what little (if any)cartilage I had left.
Thankfully for me, what came after my third knee surgery was physical therapy. Once again, I was introduced to the wonderful world of weightlifting. I started making much better dietary decisions, and worked out with my therapist about four days a week. I only spent six weeks there, but it was enough time to get me headed in the right direction.
Since my doctor insisted I not run, I found joy in walking, rollerblading, swimming and hiking. I even spent some time in my mom's home gym lifting. I started working out at my own gym in June of 2006, after I was released from my doctor. During the month of December, I spoke with some people about my desire to take my active lifestyle a little further, and possibly compete in a figure contest. I am going into this totally blind, any advice is greatly appreciated. The articles on bodybuilding.com are very helpful. If anyone runs across something which might motivate me, please send it along.
Why I Love It: I love the strong feeling I get before, during and after a good workout. I feel energized, and my confidence soars. I feel like I am doing something so good for myself. My knee has felt so much better since I implimented weight training into my regimen. I won't lie, I love the compliments I've recieved when others have noticed my hard work.
How I Stay Motivated: I try to just stay realistic. I know I can do this. I know it isn't easy, or convenient. But I know with every inch of my being I can do this.

What is your favorite cardiovascular exercise? Why?
I like the stairclimber or the rowing machine. I feel like these two machines work my body the hardest and are relatively easy on my knees. They are also pretty tough machines for most people, so th...more

What is your cardio exercise plan?
Currently I just do cardio right after lifting (and quick snack) because it is hard for me to find time at another part of the day. On my non-lifting days I hit the cardio really hard, otherwise I tr...more

How can I love something I hate so much!  Pain is my body's way of telling me it is healing and I worked hard toward a goal.  This I like.  But pain also is not comfortable.  It is causing me to walk as though I was injected with polio.  I worked my legs so hard on Monday, and now my legs...

The knee is swell! I hit 50 mi on my bike in one ride w/out lots of pain. I've been doing some retarded things lately and putting it at risk about to stop that. How is the new pup? Hows the summer overall? Mine could be a little better. Had a horrible experience this weekend even besides the straight girl thing, but what doesn't kill ya only makes you stronger right?! Alrighty take care.
