I love to lift heavy and push myself to the limit. When there is no pain I feel like I’m not doing anything to improve so I get back at it and work harder and my favorite workout is legs and butt.
I was that girl who thought running 10 miles a day and consuming 500 calories was going to get me into shape. My husband begged me for over 2 years to start lifting with him. My exact response was “I don’t want to get big.”
The anxious thoughts and feelings leading into a show. I get impatient and just want the competition to get here as soon as possible. Closer to the show, I begin getting nervous and having all kinds of anxious feelings and wanting to know who my competition is.
The thing about this sport is that not only does it challenge you physically but it also challenges you mentally. When I started competing, I realized that I needed a thick skin to be able to make it through this sport.
I have been transforming my body into the healthiest version of itself through weightlifting, nutrition, and chiropractic maintenance for some time now.
If it was not for this sport I'm not sure the direction I would have taken in life or the condition my health would be in. It saved me
What do you feel is the WORST part of contest prep? That’s easy; I’d say it would have to be the emotional rollercoaster that comes with dieting. One minute I’ll be happy, the next minute on the verge of tears…
I have learned that planning ahead of time, prepping food, packing your bag, having a spare bag in the car and at work will all help to eliminate stress.
