Personal Info And Background:
Real Name:
Maryann Jean (MJ) Fox
Sex:
Female
Age:

Location:
United States
Occupation:
IFBB Pro/ Fit Chik 4 Life. Certified Personal Trainer/ Licensed Dental Hygienist
Have always been athletic. However, never lifted much weights. Been teaching aerobics since 1993 and Personal training since 1998. Always wanted to compete since the early 90's was inspired to finally do a figure competition held in Aug 2005. started training for it in Feb 2005. I won 1st in the Masters and 2nd in tall class. Since then I have been competing.
Why I Love It:
It's my anti-depressant. It cost nothing to do just your effort, which I believe to be priceless. I enjoy the way it makes me feel and I enjoy helping others obtain that feeling. Exercise is so underrated, it can be the cure for many things if people would just try it and put fourth the effort. Remember the IRON never lies to you it can be your friend.
How I Stay Motivated:
CHOICE. It's a choice to press fourth. It's a choice to quit as well as persevere. Life is dealt to us in many different ways, but the bottom line is the life you have it's your choice to improve it, maintain it or settle for it. There are a few people God has placed in my life that are there for a reason. To help me stay motivated when I want to make the choice not too persevere. God and my husband are two main ingredients to my life that I need to maintain my endurance. I have a few (I do mean a few)close friends that always have my back,they know who they are to them I say THANK YOU!
BB Accomplishments:
2008 Earning IFBB Pro Card. and Yes DIET! UGH! I love to eat. Keeping a strict diet is a big accomplishment for me. Check out my competition history. Each show is an accomplishment for me because well Life it happens and STILL you have to RISE!!

Goal (Long):
Goals have changed- God has done it again-WOW! What an awesome father I have. My next step was to do the Arnold Amateur BUT I must send my letter to decline now. Since going Pro WOW! that sounds so good. Continue figure and help show women that muscle is beautiful, sexy and still hot! But get the word out about what Figure is. I compete against myself. There is no other body like your body and I strive to improve this body I have. I have two goals to perfect my presentation on stage and to continue to reshape my legs-not just build muscle-but shape. Ladies there is a difference. Long term goal- grow some gastrocnemius (CALVES) there not in my genetic factor but I can make them apart of my future body lol., continue to improve ham glute tie in- I still have to RISE - Maya Angelou
What is the one tip you would give somebody who is just getting started?
Learn proper form and be patient. Every excerise shoud have a purpose. Learn it. Never do it just because someone else is. Always ask-What am I doing? Why am I doing it? and is it doing what it is supposed to? Learn proper form and be patient. Every excerise shoud have a purpose. Learn it. Never do it just because someone else is.

Great showing for your first pro event. You are a true work of art and your hard work and deication has paid of for sure. I can't wait to see you shock em all next year when you walk up there showing of the new and improved legs : )
Good luck and good training
I enjoyed showing a relative u r pics, and listening to her guess u r age thinking that u r younger than what u are only to show how well u r taking good care of u r self.
Hey Sista in Christ, I have a question. I have to put on some mass, at least 10lbs, what do you eat to put on muscle? My trainer told me to eat clean but eat potatoes etc. I'm scared I will go over board and I guess I am scared to gain 10lbs since I just lost weight but I want to do whatever is necessary to win my comp.
Hi! i hope everything is going well with you and contest preps, and all of the details of life. I was wondering did you know any good resources for recipes? I need to change up my diet, while lentils, brown rice, spices and chicken is great, i'd like to change up my meals a bit!
