Back in 2000 while training for the Eastern States Ms. Fitness championships I apparently broke my elbow but never knew it. In 2012 after years of competitive powerlifting, in excruciating pain and being told it was tendinitis I finally saw a sports medicine physician down in Philly He was shocked that I competed all those years with a fractured elbow. As much as they tried they still couldn’t straighten it even while under anesthesia. After surgery he told me I’d lose a...bout 20 lbs off my bench and he wasn’t kidding. I was a candidate for elbow replacement, but he said if I was still going to compete he wouldn’t do it. Finally able to put up the wheels again. 145 for a decent double. #brownsgym #wherechampionstrain #benchpress #girlswholift #powerlifting #figure #fitness #fitlife #fitover40 #covid19cantstopchampions

This is LIFE. It’s great. It’s awful. A reminder that we will come out of 2020 stronger than ever. #brownsgym #wherechampionstrain #mondaymotivation #life

And so it begins...

19 years later and I still shed tears for the loss of life. Do you remember how we all came together as a united country? Do you remember how difficult it was ...to actually find and buy an American Flag? Do you remember how you felt when the plane went down in Pennsylvania? Do you remember the chills you got when you heard the words Let’s Roll? It’s time to come together again. It’s time to remember who we are. It’s time to stop the hate.

Happy 2 year anniversary with us @brandonsales_24 You will always be a part of our family! #brownsgym #wherechampionstrain #earningit #gymfam

Coach taking 625 for an easy triple last night. Friday Nights are the best for heavy squats for a few reasons. 1. It’s the perfect ending to the work week. Lifting with your teammates and having support (and spotters) is the secret to getting stronger 2. Saturdays = Rest & Recovery. It’s so important to take those rest days. Your body needs to rest, refuel and let your muscles recover. ... #brownsgym #wherechampionstrain #earningit #squats #powerlifting #motivation #fitover50 #alwaysevolving

This year we planted 17 different items in our garden, and you know what we have now? Zucchini, Butternut Squash and Cucumbers coming out of our ears! The dogs have graciously been helping with the harvest, but also leaving half eaten cucumbers & squash all over the yard! It's time to make some yummies and enjoy all that hard work! I hope you enjoy this recipe!

Wishing all of you a very Happy Thanksgiving! Thank you for standing by us during this tumultuous time. We are grateful for you in so many ways

I’ve been working out from home every day except Fridays. I love being around the team for squat day. They push me to do things that sometimes I’m not confident that I am capable of doing. 250x5 This is a PR for me. I have no idea what I weigh right now and I‘m ok with that. How I feel about that squat, is much better than how I feel about what the scale may say. ... Thank you @brandonsales_24 for the vid and @n__testa @browns_gym and @justin_arroyo_garcia for the spot #brownsgym #wherechampionstrain #earningit #fitover40 #powerlifting #squats #teamates #likeagirl #strongisbeautiful #fitlife #flexfriday

Complete surprise from our State Representative ... is it an election year? Pretty rad nonetheless #brownsgym #wherechampionstrain #powerlifting #bodybuilding #kindafamous #fitfam #fitcouple #fitover40

We love it when this happens

I’ve been itching to get under some heavy weight (well heavy for me) Fridays @browns_gym have notoriously been squat days. The team gets together, squats, spots and just supports one another. I’ve missed that so much. Today I took 255 for a ride and it felt pretty good for not touching anything over 135 for about 6 months prior. I love this team #brownsgym #wherechampionstrain #engineeredathletes #covid19cantstopchampions #fitover40 #powerlifting #fitlife #bodybuilding #figure #flexfriday #squats #getsome #girlswholiftheavy #strongisbeautiful #sbd
