LEEANNE WALKER’s BodyBlog

At 38, i have always loved training and always will. It’s not just about looking good, but also feeling great. So many people come to my store and have so many physical problems. "why can’t i lose weight?’ while standing there with a coke in their hand and a carton of cigarettes in the other.When it all comes down to it, they simply don’t get it. Eat the right foods, stay physically active and do the bads things…in moderation [if you must lol] AND…you will feel better. Get to that level of staying fit, eating right and you will want to be that way for life. Why not enjoy life…instead of blaming everything around you…only you can make it happen.

How many times have u been offerred something, turned it down and later found it to be a missed opportunity. Well, i decided along with my training to take every opportunity that comes my way. I have just returned from a weekend photo shoot in Bali….wow. What a Golden Opportunity that came about from just presenting myself at a Miss Figure competition. Believe me…it was much better than winning a trophy…lol. Bali is fantastic…the Resort was 5 star, the people were soooo friendly and the company that invited me were true professionals…..If you ever get the chance at doing what you have dreamed of…….take it!!!!! I couldn’t be happier. Let me know what golden opportunities you’ve had, i’m sure i’m not the only one.

The best thing i have found about belonging to bodybuilding.com is all the amazing transformations Both male and female. Just watching the changes has inspired me to achieve my goals. If it wasn’t for the community encouragement, i might have quit a long time ago. Soooo…a big thank you to everyone who finds the time to message me and others. You might not get a response but don’t think the message has gone unread. I take in every bit of advice and really appreciate it…it has helped me alot. There are some fantastic bodies online. I look forward everyday too see the transformations and positive attitudes. To the newcomers….JOIN IN!! to the existing…..THANK YOU for ur support

Training, for me, has and always will be a passion. The thought of capitalising on years of training are always there but never fully realised. I have been happy just helping a selected few and watching their results. I took on the Aus Fitness Level 3 & 4 trainers course for my own satisfaction. Then, along came the opportunity to try Miss Figure comps and i thought..wow!! this is what i have been looking for….so away i go and enter my first comp.

Rather than wait for results, i decided earlier to do this properly. Hence, a website and a professional photoshoot. Little did i know the Window of opportunity that was to follow. Sponsorships, photoshoots [prominent swimwear company] and now Sunstar records have asked me to feature in one of their upcoming artists Music Video Clip. Check him out www.scottbrewer.com</a”>http://www.scottbrewer.com/”>www.scottbrewer.com</a>. He won Itunes New Artist of the year and has 2 music videos to his credit.His Video will be downloadable on Itunes from all over the world!!! Thanks again to all those who have emailed me, it helps.

Finally, the wait is over. Months of training and preapration…done…..and finished..At 38, it was always a goal of mine to compete in a Figure competition and until you do one…you really don’t know what your in for. How did i go you might ask??? Well, i didn’t do well at all. I made so many mistakes i think the audience scored more points than me…lol.

The funny thing is…."I’m not bummed about it". Why, not? Well, i never understood the meaning of "sometimes you have to lose…to win". I always thought it was a saying to try and make a loser feel happy. That is, until now. I was meant to go in 2 weeks to another comp. but instead i will be flying off to the exotic island of Bali for a swimsuit photoshoot!!!! YEEHAW!!Unbelievable.someone saw me onstage in my g-string outfit, got my info off a friend, rang me this morning and asked if i wanted to go…WOW..and i really sucked on stage!!

I don’t know if the other girls will be going as well, i hope they are cause they were breathtaking. I am really happy for the winner, i hope she does well in other comps. I don’t think i will have time to participate in another comp this year as RAGE Streetwear are preparing their catalogue for distribution in the Eastern States and they have also asked me to fly from Perth to Sydney for promotions.

I would really like to thank Brad and Loretta McMillan for organising the comp. If they hadn’t held the comp at this time of year, i wouldn’t have pursued this type of training. And more importantly i wouldn’t have had these opportunities…WOW

Well…the time has come. @ days to go before my first comp and I can’t wait… I’m feeling great and confident. We just started preparing my Jan Tana and boy!!!! do i look dark LOL…Saturday is DDay, but i am ready and i hope the show goes well. Wish me luck…I’ll keep u posted on what happens…
