I am a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practicioner and I compete in grappling tournaments. I'm pretty small, only 5' 2" and often have to fight opponents or spar with team mates much bigger and stronger than I am. I wanted to be able to hold my own so I started lifting heavier than normal, now I'm addicted. I've always been atheletic and worked out in the gym, but did your typical "girl" work out.

I love watching my hard work pay off and beating up the boys.
