I've always been active, though became more serious about working out after having my 1st child many years ago. At that time, I was a cardio queen until I stumbled on an old FIRM video from way back that incorporated weights. I found I really enjoyed the weights component and began utilizing weights more frequently. Fast forward to today, the old FIRM video has since been retired, and I now lift 5 days/week different body splits. I also enjoy mixing up my cardio, as I have a tendency to get bored quickly. I enjoy good ol' power walking, running, biking, and using the elliptical and step machine. Oh and I forgot to mention I am a mother of 2 and grandmother of 1. I'm busy, busy that's for sure!

I love how strong and healthy I feel after working out. After a good sweat, I feel confident and stress free. Working out is MY drug of choice.
