First joined a gym at 19 y.o., just kinda played around with weights and did mainly cardio. I struggled with weight throughout my 20s, due to terrible nutrition habits and mild depression/anxiety which I self-medicated with food. After I met my boyfriend 7 years ago it was thanks to him that I started learning proper programming and nutrition. Ever since then, it's been a huge part of my life. I feel more energetic, more positive and just enjoy my life more being fit & healthy.

I love to push myself. It just feels good to physically exhaust myself and then recover and do it again, lol. Also for health reasons. My mom was bed-ridden for the last 10yrs of her life due to MS, and I feel like since I'm perfectly healthy I should make the most of my time here. In other words, because I can!
