Training with Shannon has been one of the most rewarding and life changing experiences for me. Before I met Shannon, I was your typical skinny fat girl. I had just started training at the gym and was pretty clueless about nutrition and weight lifting.  I was under that impression that weight lifting could actually make me manly looking. After meeting Shannon and training hard with her for a few months, I was so amazed at the transformation my body was making. Not only was my body changing, but my thoughts were becoming more positive.  Then the unthinkable happened. I was in what they said should have been  a fatal accident. I walked away with a broken, fractured pelvis along with a head injury. After being examined by my physiotherapist she was extremely shocked. She had never seen someone experience such a serious collision with minimal injury. She believes that the intense leg workout I had done the day before had helped prevent any further injuries. The accident was November 28, 2010, and I was back training by the end of December 2010. My muscle recovery time was minimal due to my intense training sessions with Shannon. Training with Shannon not only changed my life - it helped save it! In the months training with Shannon I was faced with  two big challenges. First the car accident, and secondly, my boyfriend passing away tragically right before I competed for the first time. Thanks to Shannon and all her love and support, pushing me both physically and mentally, I have  achieved which once seemed impossible! Her training not only  physically took my body to a place that I never thought I could achieve, but mentally helped to me to face and work through the challenges I have endured. Now I sincerely know that you can do anything if you just believe! Thanks for believing in me Shannon. I couldn't have done it without you!  :)
