Showing off that v-taper training back and shoulders today 😝 Sunday session turned into a 4 hour gym marathon with @str8_razor 💪🏻😁 not too bad for my last day in Albuquerque. #back #shoulders #girlswholift #fitgirls #muscle #bodybuilding #figure #powerlifting

Visiting @abqbiopark today and look what I find! An amazing selection of fish, not just from the Rio Grande area, but a big Pacific display as well! The staff were amazing and so knowledgable and enthusiastic and it was a great place to visit. Highlight was definitely the shark and Ray touch pool, where after a LOT of encouragement I touched a southern stingray! It was slimy and not what I expected! #travel #usa #touristtips #traveller #aquarium #marinelife #ocean #riogrande #top10 #amazing #soscared

Visited the New Mexico Museum of Natural History yesterday, which was a great trip. I took mostly dinosaur pictures because I just love them, but there are heaps of other really cool exhibits there too. #dinosaurs #trex #history #jurassic #beautiful #nerd #geek #adventure #museum #traveller #travel #mensa #traveltips #touristtips #usa

I’m going on an Adventure!

So I thought I might start writing again, since I am actually heading off overseas! 

I was going to be competing in the Mid USA Champs in Albuquerque on June 27, but injury ruled me out a few weeks ago. I’m going to be heading along to watch, and spending some time with my coach, hanging out, training and talking about the future.

After watching a powerlifting meet and spending time with my awesome training partner, I’m thinking about taking on a little bit of the sport myself. Once we figure out when I’m heading into offseason, then I’ll decide when I’m going to step on the PL platform.

For now, tomorrow I fly to Auckland, then to LA the next day. From there, a 16 hour train ride to New Mexico, and more adventuring from there!

#Glutes training tonight. Thought I'd give using the bands a try and found it really made me work a lot harder at the top. 😃😆💪🏻😆 #sumo #deadlift #girlswholift #powerlifting #bodybuilding #training #figure #nzifbb #npc #compprep #hardwork #legday #booty #shesquatsbro #quads #fitfam #fitgirls #fitness #sheliftsbro

Well I don't often show it around here, but pretty much everyone I've met in the gym comments how serious I look when I'm training. I think I took this photo just before I smiled for the pic I meant to take haha 😳😁😆 #srs #srsface #sosrs #training #girlswholift #gymtime #whysoserious #focus #determination #workhard #eatcleantraindirty #noexcuses #fitfam #fitness #gym

On the drive home from a shopping trip with mum. She's off overseas in a couple of days so was nice to spend time with her before she goes❤️ home for some life-admin, then back day in the gym 💪 #fitgirls #blueeyes #girlsdayout #shopping #travel #training #lovemum #excited #lats #back #training #plans

Why hello there!

It’s been quite a long time since I’ve written here and not for any particularly good reason either! I’ve been in my off season, trying to gain some mass and getting ready for the 2015 competition season. As the time has come for me to try lean up a little, it seems like a good time to get back into it. I’m looking forward to posting about my progress and getting to know a few others doing similar things!

Loads of messing around, serious lifting face and messy, messy form but that's a PR at 102.5kg (225.9lb) for me! Loads to work on, but still it went up! #powerlifting #noob #sumo #deadlifts #fitfam #fitgirls #girlswholift #formcheck #pr deadliftday #fitness

It's hot here, and working out in this heat is a challenge. I really didn't feel like heavy squats yesterday, but I knew I'd regret it if I didn't hit it hard. Shoulders today, gotta help these baby shoulders grow! #toohot #noexcuses #girlswholift #fitfam #fitlife #fitness #goals #motivation #sixpackfactory #discipline #motivation #hardwork #fitocracy
