Doing it RIGHT!!

The Paleo Challenge is right around the corner, so here's some motivation to get your mind right for the journey.


There are a few things I would like to reinforce:

  • Nutrition is KEY - if you don't feed your body properly, you can't push it to its limits to endorse change.  You would actually be stressing your body and breaking it down.
  • Always keep moving - create a workout plan with appropriate rest days and stick to it. Don't stall for a week or two....EVER.
  • You must destroy in order to rebuild - A brand new building isn't constructed on top of an old building.  The entire lot is usually cleared out, to make room for the new structure.
  • If you don't think that you can't I'LL give you a good reason to keep going.
INTRODUCING: SHANI ARIEL MOJICA





This is Shani on March 21st 2009 - frontal view and side view.
Shani was plagued by bulging waistline from a young age, tipping the scales at 215lbs by the tender age of 17years old. Shani is a living example that ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.  Most people may believe, they were born to be plump...big boned, could never be smaller, their parents are big, their family....blah blah blah.

Ok to the nay sayers:
This is the: Optimum Nutrition/American Bodybuilding Sponsored Athlete AND The Miss Bikini Universe 2010..... Shani Ariel Mojica



CONGRATULATIONS Shani, you looked amazing this past weekend while competing at the Tribeca Theatre.  This is her third competition and her entire story can be read at www.bodyspace.com/shaniariel  She is a sponsored athlete guys, determination and confidence came during the journey and it stuck till the end.  She was glowing on stage and there are many others like her.  My friend who competed that day as well, was 250lbs and  now wears a size two, one woman had a back injury and couldn't walk much less for lifting weights, wearing heals and competing....they all did it, and so can we.

I just need your dedication for 30 days, try it my way and prove me wrong....Don't let Shani's story go to waste, discipline and determination are key.  Feed your body right, and move....move.....move all the way to a healthier, leaner, happier you.  Free your mind from everything that you think you know and open yourself up to possibilities of a awesome future.

PLEASE NOTE:  I am not promoting bodybuilding, I am simply showing you that people have different goals, Shani wanted to be healthier, and decided to compete.  I am just promoting a healthier lifestyle choice....one that should be seriously considered!!

  1. Karlene, you couldn't be more right on the money - nutrition is key and I love your analogy about tearing an old
    structure down to make roo
    for a new one! It's so true and this becomes a neverending process - one that really shows you what you're made of if you're willing to keep your eyes open to it. Congrats to all the men and women out there who simply overcome, no matter the obstacle presented. A journey to properly obtaining lifelong fitness will change your life. It's serendipitously changed mine :). (ps I didn't win the title of MS Bikini Universe but had one HECK of an amazing time on that stage!!)

    Keep up the great work Karlene!!!
