Overview (A Little About Me)
I'm a very busy sole parent to my 12 year old daughter Sami. My life consists of working, training and not much sleep!
Interests
Interests include spending time in the sun during Summer (I'm addicted!), going to the beach, TRAINING. I love to bake cakes, biscuits & slices, however most of the year I cannot afford the temptation of the delicious end-result. So when I do bake I try to give the food away and only eat a tiny bit! Sad but true.
Favourites (Food, Bodyparts, People)
Food
Off season cheats: Chocolate, Vegetarian Pizza with Anchovies, Choc Honeycomb Cheesecake!! Comp time: Chicken tenderloin with garlic & chilli, piece of licorice as a treat.
Body Parts
Love my shoulders however I want them bigger and rounder like Monica Brant. My downfall is my abs. I think it's genetic because I train 'em bloody hard!! On a guy, I'm a sucker for a nice broad back/shoulders plus decent proportioned legs (ie no chicken legs please')
People
My daughter Sami is awesome and I love my great friends Alicia and Elisha (I call them 'The Elishas') When I'm carb depleted and in a cranky mood though, one of my favourite sayings is ' I hate people!' Nice!
Motivations (What Motivates Me)
I have an internal drive to better myself in all that I do in life. I terms of physicality, when I look in the mirror, my reflection motivates me to get bigger, fuller muscles on a tighter, leaner body. Like anyone, the brain plays tricks with my motivation and I have to be careful not to let the devil on my shoulder convince me to slack off in training or cheat in my diet. When I�m training, I am motivated to push through the pain and finish my session, (especially when training my legs) because once you�re done you feel on top of the world: energised yet completely drained!
Training History (Years, Location, Trainer)
I've always been a gym bunny since the days of g-string leotards and puffy white socks. In November 2006 I joined a different gym and the Gym Floor supervisor (Mark Nelson) saw in me a potential and genetic propensity to becoming a Figure Competitor. I had never heard of it!(other than the stereotypical pre-conceptions of masculine looking female bodybuilders). He wrote me a program (as I was new to the industry at that stage) and I began my quest of hard training and cleaning up my diet. Under Mark�s guidance I trained hard for 6 months and competed for the first time with ANB South Coast 2007. I was so nervous and didn�t do very well. Almost gave up but my trainer convinced me to compete again the following weekend at the ANB Sydney Titles. I won my Novice division and was hooked!
