FBBFan.com: Hello Stephanie, thanks for taking time out of your busy schedule to share a bit about yourself with You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login readers!
Stephanie: Thank you! I appreciate you offering me a chance to discuss women bodybuilding in the WNBF!
FBBFan.com: Would you please tell us a little bit about yourself?How old are you? Where are you from? Current Residence? Relationship Status? Family Life?
Stephanie: I am a brand new 41 year old this month; from Youngstown, Ohio. I am a single mom with 2 children (Sara 15; Alec 12), and 2 cats. I volunteer as treasurer for my sons youth football league and an an avid Pittsburgh Steelers fan!
FBBFan.com: What is your profession?
Stephanie: I work full-time as a software developer for a local company who distributes software to prisons for inmate tracking. I have a Bachelor degree in Computer Technology from Youngstown State University and have been a developer for 16 years; with this company for 2 years.

Also, I do personal training and diet consultations. Certified through AFAA for training and ISSA for nutrition.
FBBFan.com: How did you get involved in the sport of Women's Bodybuilding?
Stephanie: Always a fan of Cory Everson during my college years; after a marriage break-up I decided to put my efforts forth in the gym! Had a dream of competing 'just once' and took the opportunity to do just that! I did well in my first show, winning the overall, and decided that it took goals to keep me on the right track mentally and physically all the while dealing with my life changes.
FBBFan.com: How does your friends, family and the general public react to your physique?
Stephanie: Family and friends who know what I go through understand the discipline it takes; and see the sacrifices I make to attain my competitive goals. The general public sometimes thinks 'Im lucky' because I am in shape, not realizing 'luck' has nothing to do with it. It takes time, dedication, sacrifice and focus to live in the body you want! Its all about true 'want'... its easy to say you want it but totally different to know how to 'want' it ... and committing to that feeling!
FBBFan.com: What do you enjoy about being a bodybuilder?
Stephanie: I love being in shape; love being able to wear anything I want and feel good. I love being strong and noticeably strong and I really do love the hard training and weight lifting. But mostly I love the people I meet and people I know in the sport that understand what it takes to be a true bodybuilder. I love the newcomers that look up to me for advice and guidance! I do what I love because I want to!

FBBFan.com: What are your long-term and short-term goals in the sport?
Stephanie: My long term goals are to continue to promote and support bodybuilding and hopefully gain more female bodybuilders. My short term goals are to effectively work the 'trouble' areas and come into my next show being EXACTLY what the judges are looking for!

FBBFan.com: What is your height and current weight during off-season and contest?
Stephanie: I am 5'4" and try to maintain about 145-148 during the off-season! Very hard for me to do as I gain so easily. I actually weighed in 10lbs heavier this last show at 138.
FBBFan.com: Would you please tell us a little about your workout schedule? Contest and during the Off-Season? Does it vary much?
Stephanie: No, my workouts do not vary much at all. I usually stay moderate to heavy weight and will add in a little more cardio toward the end. I will go lighter /higher reps on legs but the focus of my changes is through diet. This is the first time that I have been able to maintain a clean diet in the off-season and feel MUCH better about it!

I do cardio each day just to get my day started! Its like my cup of coffee in the morning. I do a five day split for each body part Monday - Friday. Supplemental workouts on weekends. I only take a break if I feel I really need it.
FBBFan.com: Do you have a favorite exercise?
Stephanie: I have LOTS. I love leg press, deadlift and TBar Rows probably more than anything!
FBBFan.com: Do you have a coach or anyone you work with?
Stephanie: I train with a small group of guys for legs, it's the motivation they provide and the encouragement I get from them. We have fun but its all gain during the workout. They make it so you don't want to quit and DON'T quit... even when you feel like you can't do another rep. Other than that, I am pretty much on my own right now.
FBBFan.com: What do you consider your best feature?
Stephanie: Personally I think my abs and arms, but I get a lot of compliments on my legs. I feel that is where my most improvements will need to come from in the next 6 months!

FBBFan.com: What is a day-in-the-life of Stephanie Foley like?
Stephanie: Oh boy... very hectic. I start at 3:30 am with cardio Mon-Friday. Get the kids to school, off to work. I do my weight training during my lunch hour and if I have time I will do CrossFit after work. I usually do legs on Wednesday night and Sunday morning. As well as join my HFH (hill from hell) crew for some kind of butt kicking early morning workout on Saturday!
FBBFan.com: What are your hobbies and interests outside of the bodybuilding world?
Stephanie: I love football! Steelers and my sons youth league, Austintown Colts! My daughter is in high school so its hard to get to her games or track meets because they are scheduled during work hours! But ... I am making it a goal of 2011 to see her in action a little more! Also, I love to hike, bike ride and going out to dinner!
FBBFan.com: What's currently on your iPod?
Stephanie: Anything from country to hard rock. My favorites are Nickelback, Def Leppard, Hinder and now I am even into .38 Special again!
FBBFan.com: What are your "Top 5" favorite movies? Favorite actor and/or actress?
Stephanie: Silence of the Lambs, Fracture, Blind Side, Grease (reminders of the old days!) and Fast times at Ridgemont High. Actors: Anthony Hopkins, Demi Moore, Sean Penn, Kate Hudson and Johnny Depp.
FBBFan.com: Who are your role models? And/or who do you look up to in your life?
Stephanie: One of my training partners John. He is invaluable to me as a motivator and inspiration. Not only to me, but he also has a great influence over my kids! He is a great person to be around, positive and driven.
FBBFan.com: What advice do you have for women who would like to get involved in the sport of bodybuilding?
Stephanie: Most of all to do it for themselves! Embrace the experience for personal growth and mental strength. As I do believe it takes a strong mind and strong heart to advance to levels beyond average in this sport and in life!
FBBFan.com: Who are your favorite bodybuilding athletes?
Stephanie: No doubt Cory Everson! Rachel McLish and Tonya Knight! They are feminine muscular beauty which inspired me to want to be a bodybuilder!
