Hello! Welcome to my fitness blog.
My name is Rachel Williams. I am 42 years old, a single mom,
a special agent and currently a natural figure bodybuilder competitor.
I have been involved in athletics since I was a young
child and hope to share my love of staying fit with you. I currently
compete in the world of Natural Figure Bodybuilding. Over the years, I have
transitioned through a variety of sports and experienced varying levels of success in achieving my goals.
I grew up competing as a competitive swimmer in United States
Swimming. I swam in college and qualified as an All-American and
transitioned into Master's Swimming as an adult. Soon, I grew weary of
'just' swimming and eventually transitioned into marathons and triathlons.
I loved triathlons and thought I had found my niche. Unfortunately,
I suffered multiple running injuries and was forced to retire from a sport I
had grown to love. I needed a new goal, a new sport, a new challenge.
I have always lifted weights as a component of my training regime
and loved the strength it gives me. Little did I know, I would convert
that training into a passion for a new level of fitness.
At the age of 38, I took up figure bodybuilding and haven't looked
back. Figure bodybuilding is unlike any other sport I have competed in.
The biggest difference being it is a 'judged' sport. There is no finish
line!
I have had my share of successes and obstacles through out the
years. It has not always been easy but the reward makes it worth the
journey.
I encourage you to join me on my journey and begin one of your
own!
