I got involved in Triathlons and running races and in order to improve on that, I had to start lifting weights. Turned out I liked that a whole lot more.
Why I Love It:
I love the adrenaline rush you get. To see improvement, challenge yourself to go beyond what you ever thought you were capable of....it's the most amazing feeling.
How I Stay Motivated:
GOAL SETTING!!!
BB Accomplishments:
2009 My first figure show!!

What MightyMo74 Is Up To:
Dec 10, 2009
MightyMo74updated Fit Status "Starting a running program. It's not an all or nothing thing with me anymore...if gotta be a life change."
Eat clean during the week, small cheat on the weekend. Pick up my running as my primary cardio. Continue to train but focus on my lower body. I want to hit the stage and drop some jaws!
She is ripped! Obviously works hard and how can you not admire that and be inspired too! It's tough to always have the attitude that keeps you on track. You need to surround yourself with people like that and you too will become that.
So I decided to enter that 10 week challenge. I am so far away from what I was when I competed back in september. I need to get that back. The only way to do it right now is to put a challenge in front of me. I am human, it's tough to look at those pictures and know that I competed. ...
Thanks for the add & nice comments! I know it's hard after the comps...I had 1 week of eating like crap after my last comp & it was all I could take. I think the easiest part for me is exactly what you mentioned: I simply don't feel good when I'm not eating right...and I give myself 1 cheat day/week so that keeps me focused the other 6 days :) Keep pushing it!!
Thanks Again MightyMo, I believe it can be done too!! They said you can't get rid of stretch marks, and mine disappeared the last time, so I WILL PREVAIL!! You're such an INSPIRATION!! Keep stayin Strong!! :)
Hello Again, when you get into really awesome shape for your competitions, do you find that any cellulite that you may have had, dissipates?? I am really poop pooped about mine. It's very disheartening for me, because I never used to have it. I want to work out hard, but I find the gym/weight training overwhelming and intimidating, but I also know that just doing cardio is such a slow & long process for making change.
Anyways, Thanks & Take Care
hiiiii, thx for the add. haha ur funny u call ur dog max peanut, lol. ya my dog is my boy too, hes the only boy im gay for, haha. ur lookin great ya lil stud, keep it up! hope all is well =)
Yesss, sure thing. I use MHP's Probolic-SR Protein. I like chocolate and strawberry. Great thing about this, is it tastes GREAT with plain ol' water, so no extra unnecessary calories, etc. I use it at night as I mentioned and pre-workout! ;)

Aw, how sweet u are! No problem at all! Yeah, it's tough when you can't eat when you want and need to. After 3 hrs, I'm like, "Gotta eat, gotta eat"!! LOL. Try the Slow Release shake at night if u arent already doing so! :)
Have a great week!

Ok, so it took up more space then I thought! LOL. I like to wrap them individually cuz I find they stay moist (keep them in the fridge) and great for on-the-go! :) Let me know how u like them!
Happy Training!!
