Kristi recently won the 2012 NPC Southern States and will be competing at the NPC USA’s. I still have some weak points, but I will give it everything I have for my return to the stage in 2012. I couldn’t believe that I was able to get 1st at both shows. With almost no money, I returned to the stage in 2009. After my show in 2006, I vowed that I would give it my all, do it myself, and bring in a better package for the next show. I competed again the next year and made some good changes, but still had trouble dialing in. Before I knew it I was way stronger than all the girls I trained with and started lifting with the local male bodybuilders.Īfter lifting for power for many years, the guys helped me prep for my first show in 2005. I read everything about working out, got my first gym membership, and was in the gym 5 days a week. I couldn’t believe how strong I was and how it made me feel. We did cardio, which I hated, and then we went to lift weights. My senior year in college, one of my friends asked me to go to the gym with her.
I was the bookworm, but my inactivity at a young age and horrible diet of “country cooking” soon led to me being a bit of a chub around puberty. Academics were pushed to a high level and weakness was not an option.Īthletics were never of any interest to me. My father was adamant about me becoming a strong independent woman. I was born in a very small town in Kentucky in the late 70’s and raised by my father from a very young age.
