I was nagged by a healthy relative who dragged me to the gym. She showed me pictures of Rachel McLish and I wanted to look just like her. Sexy female muscle!
Why I Love It:
Wow, that's easy! Look in the mirror and see what does for you. It sculpts your body like a piece of art, and works out your mind all at the same time. What a high!
How I Stay Motivated:
Motivated? Looking good for my boyfriend, competitions, my career... and there always seems to be an upcoming contest. This is my last year competing :(
BB Accomplishments:
Overall Figure Champion 2005 Novice Michigan out of 40+ girls. I was 39 at the time and most of my competition was 10-15 years my junior

Natural Ohio 2005 2nd Place Open and 2nd Place Masters Divisions. What a great show! Dave Liberman and Todd Pember are promoters who really think about the athletes when it comes to their shows. They also do the Natural Northern. The trophies are HUGE! My 2 trophies are 5' each. I had to...
KS State Show 2007-I'm fully aware I need to lose 4-5% more body fat, mostly in my ass/glutes/thighs, but I like this shot of my back. It's my goal to finally lose all the fat, just not enough to get by like I've been doing. I tend to carry a lot of muscle, which sometimes hurts my score...
Why I like this video: This CD is great to workout to. Listen and see why I like the sound.
Rachel Mclish posing routine
Played: 190
Why I like this video: She's the reason I started lifting to begin with. Gorgeous!
Linda Hamilton scenes from Terminator 2
Played: 157
Why I like this video: This video does not show my favorite scene in T2, but it does highlight another woman who influenced my workouts. It's missing the scene at the end where she's pumping the shotgun over and over. Wow. She was too lean for my taste, but looked amazing nonetheless.
I decided to start this blog when people started asking me over and over about competing in figure. I guess it would help if I shared my story with you from the beginning of my figure competing up until the present. What I can tell you first off is that it most definately is a sport...
My workouts this since last contest season are totally different. My body was not balanced as well as I would have liked. My bi's and tri's were too large, which is usually not a problem, but I wanted to achieve a different look, while maintaining my decently sized and shaped delts.
Thanks for all that! You have no idea how quickly the back half of me is progressing..I owe you:) Someday maybe I'll compete. I'm kinda afraid actually..but sshh that's our secret. I'd love to meet you...maybe i can go watch you sometime!
