Why I Got Started
When I was in high school I was active with sports. On top of that I had a membership at the YMCA that I used mostly for cardio and some weight training, but very sporadically and I was ignorant when it came to weight training. I wanted to remain dedicated and transform my body, and I wanted to look ripped like the women I saw in the fitness magazines.

How I Did It
I never really knew proper form or even what exercises to do when it came to weight training throughout my teen years. It wasn’t until I was 23 that I decided to get a membership at Goodlife and set up a personal appointment. This gave me the motivation to get started and continue learning about the wonderful world of weightlifting/bodybuilding.
