When I Started:
1985
How I Started:
My mom put me in dance and gymnastics, found out I couldn't dance and threw me in soccer. I've been a sports nut ever since. I recently had knee surgery and have gained some weight. Always been a stocky girl, however.
Why I Love It:
I love sports because I am good at them, they are fun, and they break up the monotony of the regular boring cardio/workout. I love working out mainly lifting. I like being a strong woman where I can hold my own even with some guys. I love to bike ride. I just got my road bike before my knee surgery, and I'm looking forward to joining competitions and eventually biking the century (100 miles). Something about telling people I biked 30 miles today or I biked to this town and back...what did you do today?, and they look at me like I'm nuts...love it!
How I Stay Motivated:
To stay healthy...I have 'bad' genetics to gaining weight easily, heart problems, cancer, and diabetes. I like being 'buff' and strong. To have fun. Relieves stress. I only wish, now that I'm in the real world, I had as much time as I did in college to workout.
BB Accomplishments:
Two sport college athlete (basketball and track); USA teams; Olympic trials finalist; record holder; Bench Max when I my weight was 160ish and I was a college thrower bench was at 185, Squat at 310, clean and jerk was 200, overhead press at 120, Lat pulldown 190; seated row 180; Incline DB 50ea for 10; Inclinee bench 125 for 10; Upright row 85 for 10. I once wrestled a guy heavier than I that wrestled at the University of Wyoming and I took him down and held him there for the first round. But the second round his endurance took over. I was a thrower at the time...hardly any cardio.
Forum Signature:
GUYS...for god sakes don't wear short track shorts while you're doing an angled leg press or ballistic/dynamic stretching exercises! I'm all balled out here....

Goals:
Main Goal:
Transform My Body
Goal (Overall):
Ready to get back to it!
Goal (Long):
My family and I have had a rough year and a half of family trauma (lots of deaths, accidents, illnesses, surgeries, etc). We all barely scraped by w/keeping our sanity, and lost our way to things once enjoyed and important to us, just so we could survive and help each other through. Now we are all recovered, and ready to get back to things. With me that entails my health and fitness, and back to rehabbing my knee properly. My major goals are to get back on my bike and work up to long bike rides again, then eventually running when the knee is strengthened, then compete in bike comps and duathlons, get back to lifting, and lean up.
Weight Goal:
I want to LOSE 25 lb
Bodyfat Goal:
18%

What is the most common reason that somebody gets injured while lifting?
Screwin off! Either by trying to show off and do too much weight or not paying attention. I know this first hand and have learned my lesson.

Hey hot stuff! How's the knee after your duathalon. Congrats on doing that. There is a cool triathalon I'd like to do this year that includes kayaking, mountain biking and running. Is the summer going well for you so far?
