“If you had told me a year ago that I would be on Miami Beach in a bikini with a photographer, I would have thought you were out of your mind!”
After her third child and the scale pushing 200 pounds, Allison Earnst put down the fast food and picked up the weights. She lost the first 20 pounds on her own and the next 20 with a trainer. She trained for and ran a marathon. It was a feat that represented her journey back from a life style that had left her tired and miserable; a journey that led to the NPC stage. At 5’7″, Allison dropped from 186 pounds to 133 pounds. Last year, she entered her first show, the NPC Miami Bodybuilding, Figure and Bikini Competition. She placed 3rd in the Bikini Tall Class.
“You just have to want it. It’s something that no one else can do for you and there is no magic pill. You have to eat clean and you have to move your body. You have to explore and learn discipline from beginning to end. Through this experience, I learned to push myself beyond what was expected and what was comfortable and to really challenge myself. I am important and I am worth putting myself first and living my life so that I can be the absolute best that I can be.”
