Tara Scotti – Figure Girl

Tara says “I was so excited for the Nationals, because it was the first ever Figure Nationals. I felt I was on point with my training and diet and was very happy with my physique. I was confident that I was doing very well that night. After pre-judging, I got a lot of positive feedback. And not just from my friends and family.

When I was called for 4th place, I was very disappointed. I was more upset because when I asked why I took 4th, I was told I was a little too “hard”, but the girl who took 1st in the short class was very hard herself, so I was upset at the inconsistency of the judging.”

Hey everyone yesterday I spent the day at the pool and I got a great sun and had a sexy relaxation day. It was sooo beautiful! I also did two 45 minute sessions of cardio one in the morning and one later at the end of the day. I did not lift exercise yesterday but today I am going to train chest and arms. I am also going to do two 45 sessions of cardio as well. But first i have to get this apartment in order…it is a complete mess.

So here I am sitting in bed I just finished eating an oatmeal pancake. They are really good I put 1/2 cup of oatmeal and 1/2 cup of eggbeaters a splash of cinnamon and a splash of vanilla extract and put in the magic bullet and then cook it on a skillet w/pam and yummy!

Always use proper form. I know, it seems stupid that I’d have to say that, but I do. I think everyone on the planet is fully aware that proper form is not only important for the purpose of increasing workout and getting the most out of each gym, but it’s also obviously important for safety. We all know this, right? However, despite knowing this I still see tons of people in my exercise using terrible form for the sole purpose of lifting more weight.

Grace Rivera – Fine Girl

My name is Grace Rivera; I am a single mother born in Puerto Rico and raised in Brooklyn New York. I started with health and fit when my sons’ father said, “ Girl you’re getting kind-a-heavy and your rear is starting to look square”. At this point I started to look in the mirror every day because of the complex I had. I kept sucking my gut in and still no hope. I said to myself, “Grace it’s time to take charge of your life”.

Tara says : “I was born and raised in Queens NY. I started fit about 10 years ago and I took to the sport l very well . I started seeing changes in my physique right away and it got me so excited that I just wanted to train harder and learn as much as I could on about weights. I became obsessed with workout. My trainer and mentor encouraged me to get certified to be a personal trainer ( I was working unhappily in the garment district of NYC at the time). He who encouraged me to do my first muscle competition. A decision that changed my life.”

You don’t have to be a weightlifter to benefit from strength training. In fact, many studies show that even average people should incorporate strength training into their regular muscle routine. Regular strength training is credited with helping even average people maintain healthy bones, prevent injuries, speed up their metabolism, and just look healthy.

Mary Lado – Workout Girl

I did my first show in New Orleans in 2003, where I placed 1st in the skinny class. I then did the NPC Louisiana and got second, the NPC Greater Gulf States was my last local show where I placed 1st and overall. My final show that year was the NPC National Figure Championships. Let’s just say I took that as a learning experience.

My goal the following year was to be a professional figure competitor. I aimed for the NPC Junior Nationals and NPC National Figure Championships that year in 2004. I placed second at Junior Nationals and won 1st place in the hot class at NPC National Figure Championships and overall. Thanks to the support of my family my dream was now a reality.
