What I like: Training in the gym, cooking healthy foods, preping for shows, and if having some time for other things than: training others - helping them achieve their own goals, never mind if only for themselves or competition goals, writing articles about the sport, writing novels and short stories, painting pics (oils, pencils), making jewellery. I like also walking in the nature and mountaineering and rock climbing, horseriding and horses, relaxing at home or during a good massage, going out with my man and friends when offseason.
Music: any, but mostly 60ties-80ties and film music
Films: Kill Bil, Sin City, Starwars, Milion Dollar baby, Wrestler
TV: Big Bang theory, Red Dwarf, Married with children, the Simpsons (my evening relax after training)
Training videos: Blood and Guts (it rocks!), Raising the bar (see parts of my own life there - LOL)
Books: historical, fantasy, popular scientistic, Black Beauty from Ana Sewell
What I dislike: Sidetalks, jealousiness, disrespect to me as to an athlete not only from people outside of the sport but also from some "fans of female bodybuilding" as well. Rude behavior in the society. Lack of communication and spreading lies.
What is my best achievement: I was 2009 Nationals Runner up, 2009 Figure World championship finalist, 2010 World champion in raw benchpress and 2011 European Cup NABBA winner and NAC Bodybuilding World championship finalist and the greatest achievement was same year WFF Universe 1st runner up and winner at NPC Pacific USA championship. 2013 I was IFBB Arnold Classic Amateur finalist (5th) in Women Physique class.
But what I really achieved is better knowledge of myself, self consiousness, self discipline, thanks to my former coach I grew up mentally and I am able to see things realistic and be selfconfident without too much focusing on the sport itself. That is the best achievement sport might give me.
