Today marks day one of my Mr. Olympia trip; I like to refer to the Mr. Olympia show and expo as the superbowl of the health and fitness industry shows/expos; there is a huge two day expo of amazing giveaways by a variety of companies, then the biggest show with divisions in bikini, figure, fitness, bodybuilding (not just muscle men, but some very fit and beautiful ladies). The Mr. Olympia in 2011 was my very first show, which got me to thinking of the transformation I’ve made in as little as one year, and even before that.
Pic 1: me at age 19 – skinny, no muscle definition (my least favorite look on any lady); my workouts consisted of mainly just cardio with light lifting of basic lunges, squats, curls, etc.
Pic 2: at age 20 – this marks the beginning of my use of protein as well as starting to get more into weight training; you can see the muscle definition (especially in my shoulders and legs). My body has more of an hour-glass shape with a tighter midsection.
Pic 3: the most recent picture at age 21- major muscle definition and shape; the biggest change I’ve made – DIET! Strictly scheduled meals of the healthiest carbs, fats, etc and HumaPro as my main protein source. I am very proud of the results I’ve made over the past few years, especially within the past year!
Well I’m getting into Vegas late this evening; one of my favorite sights is flying into Vegas in the evening and seeing the strip lit up – so beautiful and amazing! I’m very excited to be with my fitness fam – some of the kindest and most supportive people I know; we always have an amazing & fun time.
