With my  new holistic approach to life, I ventured out to the gym. My reasoning was to find a new hobby and as a way to rid myself of negative energy. The positive side to working out I found out to be was not only doing something with my time but the changes that occurred in my body and the happy feeling after a good workout session. So while working out for me started as a means to rid myself of stress, it’s now a new found love for me and the benefits is a better mental state and a fit body! My trainer persauded me to try a fitness competition, so my journey to my first ever bikini competition started five days ago. I’m ten weeks out and looking forward to the challenge and the fun.
