| I have been interested in bodybuilding ever since I was little and saw the
movie "Predator" with Arnold Schwarzenegger. When he and Carl Weathers grasped
each others hands and flexed their biceps, that's when I realized that I wanted
to take my body to its fullest physical potential. I didn't start seriously
training until my senior year of high school. I first just trained at home and
at the local rec center, but then I met Cindy, a former local natural
bodybuilder. She showed me the tricks of the trade and gave me a new apprecation
for bodybuilding. I have been CONSISTENT for 2 years now and if I had to
give one piece of advice it would be to be consistent. If you don't stick
with it, you won't reach any of your goals. |
| Speaking of goals, my current goal is to continue to build muscle (except
during the warm months when I want to look good in a tank top), and see where my
ideal weight is. I am therorizing that it is in the 170-175 lbs range. I want
to be muscular, but feminine. |
