 Carolyn, Eleanor and Lisa |
What a fantastic journey I have been on this year. As many of us do I too sat around in early January and thought about what I wanted to achieve in 2012. My goals fell into 3 categories, academic, career and fitness. The one nagging fitness goal I hadn’t yet achieved was to compete in a body-building competition – and into my life came CLM Onehunga and with that Lisa Menzies and Eleanor Stewart. |
| How lucky was I to have everything I needed to achieve my fitness goal arrive at my door!! So I picked a competition – the last one for the year – and set about training. As a PT myself I had a pretty good idea of how to train, but having a couple of very experienced ladies in my corner was what I needed to achieve my best. |
| OK so lets talk food (seems you do a lot of that in this sport). I wouldn’t call my previous diet bad but it wasn’t getting me where I needed to be. I approached Lisa about 9 weeks out from the North Harbour competition with a PLEASE HELP ME – fortunately for me she said yes. Lisa gave me a plan with everything I needed to have enough energy to get through my long days and pretty much everything on my plan was easily obtained from the supermarket. My life requires a lot of energy with training and working as a group exercise instructor, member services consultant and PT – I was still GROWING with Lisa’s guidance. I went into that my very first competition with the attitude that if I placed in the top 3 I would be happy – I was ecstatic when I won my class!! I think I can freely speak for all of us when I say Lisa you have been awesome and THANK YOU – Bring on 2012 let’s see what else we can achieve.
