From Detroit, MI. 25 year old Anna is an all around athlete and a very driven and determined woman. A competitive dancer until age 17, Anna easily transitioned her already tight, muscular physique to the weight room. Happily married, Anna’s husband was the push she needed to really take on the heavy weights. She quickly fell in love with the feel of the iron and the poundage as it transformed not only her body, but her mind as well.
Training is now a lifestyle. It’s Anna’s way of relieving stress and clearing her mind while building the best she can be physically. It’s a way for her to constant prove to herself that she can do anything she puts her mind to.
Anna’s training regimen is intense. She uses fasted cardio several times each week during the off-season, just to keep her body guessing. Heavy lifting is always on schedule, each and every time she’s in the gym. Of course, she does listen to her body and backs off, just a wee bit, when she needs to. Anna also trains for fun races and has done the Tough Mudder and will be competing this coming August in the Warrior Dash.
The photos in the purple bikini are from Anna’s very first show, April 25, 2015. She found out 3 weeks prior to the show that she was actually going to compete. With a such short notice, Anna worked says that she worked her ass off to step on stage. It paid off, taking 2nd place in each of 3 different bikini divisions, qualifying her for Nationals.
More determined that ever, Anna’s focus is now on the National stage. She’s continuing to lift heavy to add a little more mass and keeping her diet clean. What’s on her diet? Tons of chicken, steak and dish, along with rice, sweet potatoes, spinach and lots of fruit snacks. Of course her sanity would be out of whack if it wasn’t for the occasional cheat meal!
We are looking very forward to hearing more from Anna and following her progress as she get’s ready for the National stage!!
