I have always trained, I started with horse riding and swimming. I also did Athletics in the teens. When I was abort 15 years old I started with Weights to become better in the swimming. Then I realized my strength was something extra, it was easy for me to build muscles. I really loved the gym training and started to prepare for competing in BB.

I loved to compete but loved the hard training more than be at the stage(!) and started with Strong woman instead. It went very well and I got invited to the World Strongest Woman competition in Poland in May this year. I was in great shape but hurt my back one month before the contest and had to rest instead.

I have now started with weightlifting -Olympic lifting and I love that! I have taken a break from the event training and will now only focus at the OL for a while. I love that training, it’s great fun but very technical and a big challenge.

When I did Strong woman I also trained a lot of power lifting and I still do. In November (2008) I competed in dead lift at WABDL World championships in Las Vegas. I won the heavy weight class with 245 kg and also did two world records.

I train 5 days/week and do mostly OL, snatch, clean and jerk and different technique exercises but also bench, deadlift and squat, focus at the explosiveness.

When I did BB I was very strict with the food, but since I started with the “strength sports ”I eat almost everything,. To keep my mass, develop strength and have enough energy to manage the heavy workouts.

I stick to pasta, rice, potatoes, bread, fruit, chicken, red meat and salmon. I take Udos’s choise and protein powder as a supplement. I eat healthy though I love sweets and cookies!

I love to train and my goal is to be an allround athlete. When I don’t train I love to spend time with family and friends, my dogs. I also love cooking, traveling, music, reading ad painting.

This woman has caught my eye big time. She competed in the Emerald Cup in both figure AND bodybuilding and placed in the top three in both divisions!  Approve To be exact, she was 3rd in Class A Figure Class and 2nd in the Masters Bodybuilding Over 35 division.

More about her :

Brittani isn't your typical physique star. Prior to competing, she has been involved in dance, cheerleading, rock climbing, wakeboarding, snowboarding, and just about everything in between. (Source: Twixpix) In addition to having that in her resume, she's also a mother of two.

In her first year competing (2008), she competed in the Vancouver Natural (yes, her physique is natural) and won her class, won the overall title at the 7 Feathers Classic, and placed in the top three at last year's Emerald Cup. And then she kicks off 2009 in a big way by placing in the top three in both bodybuilding AND figure in her classes. Call me crazy, but that screams future pro to me. According to a video interview she did for Hardfitness (click here to view the video), look for her to make her national debut this November at the NPC Nationals.

She's only been competing for a couple of years now, but I feel it will only be a matter of time before she turns pro. Whether she will get it for bodybuilding or figure remains to be seen. Regardless of what she gets it for, look for Brittani to do big things in the years to come. And with her being a natural athlete, that says a lot about her character and determination. At this point, the only person that's gonna hold her back is herself, and I doubt that it will happen anytime soon. :-)

Brittani, we wish you the very best of luck in the future and hope you serve as an inspiration to working mothers around the world. The world is yours for the taking. GOOD LUCK CHAMP!!!

She's planning on making her National debut this November, if I'm not mistaken.

With her recent success in a short amount of time, I'd keep an eye on this future star.

Heather started training for her first show after seeing a poster at her local gym and thought it would be a unique challenge. After placing third, she realized this was something she was geneticly built for and loved the competitive aspect of it. Heather is a mother of three and has made strength training and fitness a full time job. Specializing in women’s fitness, Heather has gone on to do many shows and is qualified to do the Ontario's with the OPA but has decided to take some time off to focus on her career. At 43 she plans on competing again in the future, to strive for that first place.
