Stephanie Willes Walks Into the Pro Ranks: Blog 1: 6-15-13
June 15, 2013 will be a day forever etched in my mind. This day is the day that I imagined would only happen in my dreams. On this day I earned IFBB Pro status…….
Five short years ago I was merely a spectator in the audience of the 2008 NPC USA Bodybuilding, and Figure Championships. This was my first experience with bodybuilding. I was there to support a friend who had made the commitment of being a competitor in figure. I was just a regular girl from a small town who wanted to burst out of her shell. Seeing those girls walk out on stage, my mouth was wide open, in ah of these stunning physiques. I knew immediately that this is what I wanted to do. But could I do it?
When Inspiration And Motivation Goes Beyond Words:
A Look at Coming Back and Being Able to Inspire the Masses
Too tired to train because it was a late night. Bad day at work. Don't feel like it. Got home late and your schedule is off. Feel sick or something hurts. Sounds familiar... Excuses.

From Overweight to Athlete: My Journey from Sedentary to the Stage
For most of my life, I was that very sedentary, lazy, typical person who was just sat back coasting through life, wondering where I was going to end up. All of my friends and family were in better shape than me and I had never been happy with myself. It had become apparent to me that I was considered in the “fat” range early in my life while being made fun of at school from as early as I can remember, right up through college. I was made fun of almost daily on the bus rides to school, by random people passing by me in the hallways.
