I am in my early 40''s looking to get back into shape after a bad car accident whiche led to back surgery. I did strength training in my early 30's and had a partner who competed. I loved it.

I just started again about a month ago and joined Life Time Fitness. I LOVE it there. Exercise is a lifestyle choice. My first goal is to lose the weight I had put on after being sedintary after surgery.

I do an hour of cardio and an hour of strength training. Sometimes I follow up with some laps in the pool and and 20 min. in the jacuzzi.

One of my goals is to learn rock climbing. I just got my Belay certification this week and am pretty excited. Rock climbing is pretty intense...just like body building...but a different kind of adrenalin rush.

I love the out doors, hiking, walking with my dogs, and riding my bike. I have two small dogs that mean the world to me. I love to read and cook and eat healthy.

It would be nice to meet other women into fitness and body building.
