As a personal trainer and coach fitness has always be my passion. But even I am still growing in this lifestyle. October of 2013 took me to my first Bodybuilding Competition. I decided to compete in Fitness America Pagent as a bikini competitor and a Fit Model Competitor. I placed second in both categories. I felt amazing. I had themewear and it really was a Pagent! But I wanted to compete in a federation that looked for a bit more muscle with a little less themewear because that first show nearly broke my bank account into pieces.

I switched to the NPC. Being judged only on my physique is not an easy thing. I didn't fit into their bikini division, so I added more muscle and went back as a Figure athlete. I placed 2nd in my class and became a Nationally Qualified Figure Competitor. I never felt more awesome! 

Many exciting things in my career, education and competition life await me. I'm consistently wanting to be better. For now I am working on competing at a National Show for the chance to earn my Pro card. I don't have an exact show scheduled, but I know 2016 will be full of adventure.

I have even branched out into helping other Figure and Bikini competitors train and get ready for a show. My first client placed 1st at her first competition in Figure in Brooklyn this past October. I'm so proud of her and the effort she put into following my plan. Being a coach isn't always easy, but it is rewarding. I am still in awe of the Summer and Fall I've had. 

If you are thinking about competing please know it is a tough road and each person has their own journey. But the motivation behind such an amazing adventure must be personal. The training is intense, the cardio is relentless, the nutrition is specific and at times redundant and you will need to be selfish with your time. Preparation is essential to success. I'm looking forward to helping more clients reach their dream of competing as well as reaching my level of pro status. So many new adventures for me to take MAXFIT 360!
