Been working out about two years now, at first it was just doing WAY TOO MUCH cardio though, then this summer I changed my goals around because I had decided that I wanted to start competing, I was hooked from the first moment I ever stepped on stage!
Why I Love It:
Nothing feels better after a long or stressful day then going to the gym...its kind of like my get away place where I can leave everything else behind!
How I Stay Motivated:
People... goes both ways, whether get compliments or get critiques either way makes me wanna kick @$$ at the gym, plus I have a self desire to constantly wanna keep improving as well! At the gym my IPOD is what keeps me going though, especially when it comes to something that seems tough, I just turn up the volume and it gets me pumped.
BB Accomplishments:
Competed in the Melissa Frabbiele Fitness and Figure Classic on June 2, 2007
Competed in the Western MI Bodybuilding, Fitness, and Figure on September 22, 2007 and took 3rd place!
Did figure at the Atlantic City Pro/am September 13, 2008 and finished third.
Ended the year competing in bodybuilding at the Southeastern USA's and won my class and the overall!
Forum Signature:
"The road to success is not straight. There is a curve called failure, a loop called confusion, speed bumps called friends, red lights called enemies, caution lights called family, and you will have flats called jobs. But if you have a spare called determination, an engine called perserverance, insurance called faith, a driver called Jesus, you will make it to a place called success."
After competing in my first show, which was June 2 I would say I am hooked... now its just time to keep kicking some @$$ in the gym for my next show!!! ;)
Which pro bodybuilder/fitness/figure competitor has the ideal physique? Why?
I don't have just one picked out because I think everyone has to put in the hard work to get to where they wanna be, so I look up to anyone that puts in the daily hard work!
Well its just a little over 12 hours and I will be checking in for my first show! WOW is all that comes to mind to say! I am so excited!!! ;) I mean my posing still could have used alot more work, but thats ok, we live and learn and there WILL BE more shows done the road for sure! ...
Great to see ya!! Looking good!!! Great progress thus far keep it up~~
