Listen To Your Body!
By Dawn Fernandez, IFBB Figure Pro
I recently pushed myself beyond my regular regimen and although this may initially sound like an achievement, it wasn’t. I’ve learned over the years that it’s important to give our mind and body a break from constant activity to allow them to regroup, rest and rejuvenate. In fact, our bodies will usually send us messages that unfortunately we ignore.

Selecting The Right Suit Cut For Your Body
By Dr. Stacey Naito, IFBB Bikini Pro
Competition suit designs can vary widely depending on the suit designer, fabric type, body measurements and proportions of the competitor. Though you may be tempted to go the cheaper route and either borrow or rent a suit or purchase an off the rack suit that is not made to fit your particular body, I always recommend having a suit custom made which is cut to your measurements. Trust me, it makes a huge difference when you wear a suit that compliments your body!

From Sad and Sick to Confident and Proud – A Fitness Transformation!
I think you can probably find some version of my story being played out in every high school across the country. A young girl trying to fit in, trying to find a place she belongs. I think back to the song by Martina McBride, “high school can be so rough, can be so mean.” She hit the nail on the head with that one. Every high school girl wants to fit in, to have lots of friends, get invited to all the parties, and to be liked by the popular group. When they are not, for whatever reason, they are faced with a lot of heartache.
Blast the Fat Like the Cast of the Movie 300
Do you ever wonder how actors and actresses get their chiseled bodies so fast? I have the workout that the actors from the movie 300 did. Those gladiators in the movie really impressed me. I did some research, and I found the workout they did every week, sometimes twice a week. I do this workout once a week in the off season for my cardio day. I do it twice a week when I get closer to a show.
Canuck Corner With Natalie Waples #27
Hi Everyone!
Well we are only a month away from Christmas and I cannot believe the 2013 IFBB Pro Figure Season has come to a close! What a great year - 8 fantastic shows, friendships made, new opportunities and I am one fortunate competitor :) I just finished up my season with a 4th place finish at the Brent Jones Kentucky Muscle Pro Figure in Louisville, Kentucky and had an absolutely fabulous weekend.
