Why
did you become interested in fitness?
Through my own experiences with weight issues I became healthy
through fitness and exercise and wanted to teach this to those
needing help with their health. A much more rewarding career for
me!
When
did you first start working out?
I was active on an off as a kid but with sever Chronic Bronchial
Asthma I could not do much and would fall sick at home for weeks.
I danced, did gymnastics but was unable to follow through with
the effects of my health issues. In the early 90's I began training
in recovery from my weigh issues and because I gained muscle so
easy and my metabolism finally for the first time in life became
regulated I decided to try to compete. I also became a trainer
at this time.
What
other physical activities do you enjoy to stay fit?
Kickboxing, plyometrics, basic gymnastics and Fitness elements
drills, dance, lots of variety. I like to practice drills for
various sports like basketball, soccer and track because this
helps me excel physically.
What
are your goals within the fitness industry?
I would like to become a more prominent marker, possible acting,
I have so many choices and ideas so I go in many directions depending
on where I believe they will lead my career as well as keeping
within enjoyment.
Additional Notes
I have a beautiful Pitbull Terrier, he is turning 11 on Jan 24/02.
He is a Champion too with 1st in show and 2nd in pull, he pulled
up to 900 lbs then decided he did not feel like it. Some dogs
love it, a female of 35 lbs pulled 3500 lbs, 1000x her weight
and she loved it, no problem!
