I saw an amazing transformation story on BB.COM of Chrissy Clausen. She changed dramatically and I wanted to also. I contacted Chrissy and hired her amazing coach Sandy Wiedmeyer. Sandy constructed my unique individual online training / meal plan just for me. I headed to the gym daily, did the exercises she told me to do, ate the clean foods she suggested I eat. In late 2013, I stepped on stage to compete in my first figure compeittion and have now made competing twice a year my annual goal. I love this new found sport/lifestyle.

For me working out has become my stress reliever. I admire and look up to my Team Iron Nation coach and teammates. We share information, inspiration and motivation. I feel so happy and healthy surrounding myself with like-minded, goal oriented individuals. Best life-style change thus far.
