Bikini Diaries Unfiltered - My Transformation

A female Reading “Male Magazines”  I was asked why was I reading a “male fitness” magazine?  I was at the gym, on the stepper reading the Muscle Evolution Magazine.  While I read I can feel eyes, staring with wondering minds... In the weight section people glance and sometimes read my training book. As humans, we are all curious. My training book looks interesting and inspiring for me personally, and not for anyone else. (I will discuss vision boards and goal books in my next blog with my artwork.) Dexter Jackson is on the current cover looking larger than life.

Have you become a cripple by choice?  There are many inspiring stories out there but these have brought tears to my eyes.
