Natural Body Builder, ok..now about me...Latina and proud of my heritage! I was born in Sunny California and I will always be a Cali girl at heart. I have adopted Tejas as my state for 10 years and I especially love Dallas/Houston.
I have been weight lifting since 1983. Working out is a lifestyle for me. I decided to compete when I turned 39. My goal is to enter my first show before I turn the big 40 in August. I trained pretty hard for years even after having two kids. A few setbacks hasn't stopped me. I mainly stayed in shape to maintain my shape and my sweet tooth. I am now refocused and train regularly at the gym. I'm three quarters to my goal. More questions? If you ask about me I will tell you, "I am dreamer, a believer and an achiever."
Why I Love It:
No matter how much stress I have in my life, the one thing that helps me cope and get through it all is God, and working out..I love the power of my muscles and clothes look nicer too.
How I Stay Motivated:
Just started taking Muay Thai and Brazilian ji jitsu..talk about cardio!! love it but have to keep up with an 18 y.o girl..she is tough but keeps me motivated!! lol
Tap out baby!!
My goal to compete my kids, and I have told so many people..lol..but mostly because failure is not an option.
BB Accomplishments:
Getting back into the gym after two car accidents, many surgeries and Fibromyalgia, etc etc etc and believe me..I was a walking poster for all the latest and greatest drugs for no sleep, too much sleep, aches, pains, and the rest is too personal..but I started physical therapy and accupuncture which gave me the strength to hit the gym again, take up martial arts and even be on the company flag football team anything is possible if you believe...
Forum Signature:
A friend tells me and I believe it, Pain is a sign of weakness leaving the body. No pain, no gain!
WORK HARD = HARD BODY
luv

Progress Pictures
This member has not uploaded any progress pictures yet.
I would like to get my six pack back...I had one even after having two kids. I seemed to have lost it and working desperately hard to find it.
I am in my precontest phase of diet and exercise. I am eating clean and drinking more water. I cut out alcohol and added more supplements including a multi vitamin, vitamin C and flax seed oil.
Discipline or lack thereof has been my battle lately. I hope to start going the to the gym twice a day so I can get a good cardio workout in the morning and lift in the evenings.
June I will send in my application to my first amateur bodybuilding contest. I will learn from my experience and perfect my craft for the next time. Yes I said next time! I have the competition bug. I first set out to do this to prove to myself and others I could do it..Now I want to make this a permanent part of my life. I love the bodybuilding world and the hard working people that populate it.
I have finally found my place in this world. I always knew where I belonged but it took me a while to come home.
My first contest will be held in Galveston, Texas. I am soooooooo excited and nervous just thinking about it...I will post some pics when i get close and also from the show.
As far as looks..I want ripped abs, rounded shoulders, cut thighs and well developed calves, sexy legs and buns of steel.
=P
If pain is weakness leaving the body well than damn I am about to be one strong lady!
I am having a hard time lately with my fybromyalgia...It's so bad that sitting here writing this post is a struggle. Please don't feel sorry for me and know that I will never give up my quest...
