    Hi! :)

    My name is Beyza and I live in Turkey. I usually can`t help grabbing the second or third plate. I started exercising so late and I`m not doing it so regularly, that`s what holding me back. I like pilates, especially the ones working out butt and arms. I began doing aikido last season, I`d like to keep doing it. I`d really like to change how my thighs and weak arms look. I generally like my body but don`t have a favourite part. My goal is to strengthen my muscles and get rid of those cellulites.
