Newbie bodybuilder chick

[Mosgielian]

Hi all,

Yeah, this is the place where you do that introducty thing, so here I am.

I'm Mosgielian, 41, married, mum of two kids. I live down just outside Dunedin, in Mosgiel.

Yeah, sounds all kind of normal and white-pickety, except I love lifting weights and have started doing some serious bodybuilding ;-)

My sporting background is competitive rowing for years in Australia. Stopped over a decade ago when work commitments got too heavy, and it's been a while and a few kgs on since then, so I'm cutting hard right now. Broccoli is my co-pilot...

I'd be kind of nice to find some other women who are also into gaining serious muscle, and who like lifting weights that are, well, WEIGHTS. If that sounds like you, drop me a line.

Wanting to compete at some stage in a year or so, once I've figured out exactly where I sit and how this whole comp thing works - this is a new sport for me, and I'm totally in the woods with it. So yeah, you'll see me at comps sooner or later, sooner if I can help it.

Oh yeah, and I keep a blog: http://weightohealth.wordpress.com Started off as a weight loss blog, but now more about gym stuff and what I'm learning / doing.

Cheers,

Mosgielian.

Welcome aboard, good to see anpther Southerner on here.

Well done on your progress to date, sounds like you've gotten the bug :grin:

Where are you training? We have some pretty strong chicks at Sky Fitness, some of whom are competing in the Dunedin comp in September. I think a couple of them are on here, so you may hear from one of them.
