Erin Stern Training and Interview Video!
cllick right pic to see.

Moe and Erin	16 March: Had the opportunity to pop in on Ms Olympia Erin Stern's training today and I must say 'wow' this lady is strong. Eventhough she's in contest mode, having just competed at the Aussie Pro (and won) and now mid week she's training for the NZ Pro on Sat 19th, Erin's still lifting heavy weights. She says she lifts heavy all year round and doesn't go into high reps. Today she was doing her own bodyweight lat pulldowns, 22.5kg dumbell rows, 20kg hammerstrength shoulder press - all 3 sets of 10 reps. Plus Erin also did medium weight lateral and front raises. Here is a glimpse of her training, I've also captured her training on video which will give you more of an idea how strong she is. Erin went on to win the NZ Pro. Pics here	Lisa and Erin. Ow, yes she's strong!

Kristy Thomson's Debut Figure, Feb 11

Almost a year after turning Pro, christchurch figure Kristy Thomson is finally about to make her Pro debut at the IFBB Australian Pro on 12 March in Melbourne. Stepping foot on stage at the Pro show will be the culmination of a 10 year journey that Kristy began as a junior competitor in 2000.

At 5' (and a half), weighing 48-49kg on stage, Kristy displays an athletic figure and a set of shoulders that many athletes are envious of. Its with these assets that has seen Kristy has rise through the ranks of local and national competitions winning in novice and open categories in Figure and Bodyfitness classes.

We catch up with Kristy 3 weeks before her Pro debut and find out what thoughts are going through her mind!

International Figure; Rosa-Maria Romero, Feb 11

Australian Figure Pro Rosa-Maria Romero has lived (and still living) an action packed life. Beginning with her early career as a flamenco dance teacher, she then turned her hand to becoming an aerobics instructor which progressed into a role as one of the instructors on the iconic 'Aerobics Oz Style' on Australian television in 1995.

The path to the international figure stage began for Rosa when she took up weight training after the birth of her sons in 2003. Within 3 years of training and competing in competitive bodybuilding she had won 3 National Titles and placed 4th at the World Championships, enabling her to apply for her Pro card. And the rest they is history!

But being a Pro figure competitor is not Rosa's only profession. She also manages to work full time as an international flight attendant and her most important role of Mum to her 2 boys.

Rosa did have thoughts about retiring from the Pro circuit at the end of 2010 but her recent invite to the prestigious Arnold Classic was just too much of an exciting offer to give up. So Rosa got all revved up and has been working hard during her pre contest in anticipation of her contest in March.

Travelling and dieting might not be ideal for most people but for Rosa its second nature, so we thought we'd catch up with Rosa to see how she copes with being an international travelling figure and how her preprations are going.
