Were you always strong/athletic/muscular? Any childhood memories you can

share? I’ve always been heavier and stronger. As I got older I had to watch my bodyfat and got in BB’ng that way.

Athletic Background...sports played growing up Volleyball

When/Why did you start lifting weights I saw how strong I was and lifted heavier and heavier.

What empowers/motivates you as an athlete?: To work on my weaknesses and improve on lifts

What's your strongest muscle group, what do you consider your weakest?: My calves are best and I don’t even train them. Quads would be my weakest.

How do people, men in particular, react to you lifting weights and/or being

muscular?: Earlier I received negative feedback from younger guys but now being older guys respect it and give very positive feedback.

Have you ever been challenged in sports or in the weight room or in other

circumstances to prove yourself against a guy? Can you share any stories and

results of such experiences with us? I used to always get challenged but not so much anymore. A male friend did challenge me to wrestle this past summer so I did and beat him the first two matches. The third match I let him win, haha.
