I happen to follow Kurt Warner on Twitter. Not only is he an all-around super nice guy, he also happens to be one of the best undrafted football players of all time and his12-year career is regarded as one of the greatest NFL stories in history. Here is how I responded to one of his many tweets:

It seems like most people,
like me, ignore working on their back in the gym. Since I competed in March and saw the photos
of my backside (Omg…those shots were way to close), I decided that I haven’t
given enough time working on the muscles in my back. It appears that I have some extra skin
hanging around my lower back, so I decided that I’m going to fill them in with
muscle Gwenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14752691703432843377noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2980897429866317812.post-62598606782640684372012-06-28T21:51:00.000-04:002012-06-29T11:58:21.027-04:00Head to therapy...at the gym!
We’re almost halfway through
2012 already. Can you believe it? Years really do fly by faster the older we
get. I have gone through one of the most
stressful times of my life this year due to moving, job change, family members’
issues, and my own relationship issues.

When I
was younger, if anyone asked me about my goals in life, I was totally dumbfounded. I had no clue how to answer that question. I just knew that I wanted to graduate from
high school and figure it out then! My
sister on the other hand, was very goal oriented and knew that she wanted to go
on to college and had a specific plan of action.

Since

with what is available here. Typical of
most small Midwest towns, it doesn’t have a lot to choose from, unless you want
to drive 50 miles to the city. I did
find a gym that has been ok and I’ve made it work for me.

When we
think of being addicted, the first thing we think of is drugs. We assume that the drugs are either
prescription or bought from a sleazy dealer.
Imagine if someone is addicted to a drug that is often offered to us for
free, is available everywhere, everywhere we shop, at family gatherings,
parties, and is given to us starting as children.

Even though I like this saying, I believe it's really 80/20 and abs can absolutely be enhanced in the gym with weights. But, you have to melt the snow so your peaks and valleys can show!

Since
I’m staying with my mother until she can walk again, I’m having to physically
take care of her, cook, clean, do laundry, and run errands. Yesterday, I went the store to pick up a few
things and as the young very heavy girl was ringing me out she said, “How do
you stay so skinny?” Normally, the word
skinny would sort of offend me because I’ve worked so hard to be fit…but it Gwenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14752691703432843377noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2980897429866317812.post-42373173509759189382012-04-12T05:06:00.001-04:002012-04-12T05:06:45.718-04:00Fit or Fat...It's YOUR Choice<!--[if gte mso 9]>

Ten weeks ago, I decided to compete in my first ever NPC Bikini competition, the Ronnie Coleman Classic. At that time, I couldn't even imagine how I was going to pull it off in such a short period of time. I had at least 10 pounds to lose, muscle to gain, and dimples to make disappear. So, I set my goal on the calendar, made my nutrition and workout plan, and jumped in Gwenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14752691703432843377noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2980897429866317812.post-33175035674313400182012-03-27T15:19:00.000-04:002012-03-27T15:19:30.152-04:00Plan the…unexpected?

My first show is less than two weeks away now! I've been at this thing (training like a freak) for 8 weeks now and I feel a little worn down, but so excited for this competition. My diet is a LOT of protein and veggies and a small amounts of complex carbs, no fruit for the next 10 days, definitely NO sugar, and a gallon of water a day.
