    my end goal is do some sort of modeling i still have to shed 10 or percent off my body fat percentage before i will even try. but its cool to know i'm not the only one on this site who has that in mind

    Can you become a fitness model if you're balding in your 20's, ugly, and covered in scars?
    No? Oh ... well then, no it's not my goal.

    I got to fitness model once for a magazine spread, and it was HARD WORK. Most of my modeling experience previously was as an artist's model, which is hard because you have to hold a pose for 15+ minutes at a time, but the fitness gig was a crazy hard workout! Doing the same exercise over and over again, holding the postures, having to hold absolutely perfect form... it was tough, but I won't lie, it was fun. I would do it again in a second.

    Here's my spread, if you're interested:

    This was shot in late 2007. I'm thinner now by a good 5 lbs. I love the crossover sit-ups I'm demonstrating in the second part; they're still part of my regular training routine.

    That would be anyone's dream I believe....would I ever be there? Doubt it. lol I think there would be a lot of "you have to be this and have that" to be one. OP....now I think it is obtainable for you. Also, I'm 5'2".....not many short models out there.

    You're adorable and fit! I am sure a lot has changed since '07 but regardless you look great!

    I agree with Rach. I would love to be, and it is my goal. It is hard for shorter girls! I have about 10% body fat to shed before I really will feel ready to take that step!

    I have never been fit in my life, but I did some plus size modeling in my past (I know, I was shocked too!)... and it's not my end goal, but I'm supporting you 100%!

    My end goal is to teach strength classes
