WBFF Pro Sharon Polsky is an inspiration to ALL!

Be the first to comment!

Staying true to my mission of bringing exceptional athletes to the public eye, I would like to introduce everyone to an amazing woman, Sharon Polsky. I have recently had the pleasure of getting to know Sharon on both a professional and personal level, and this woman just continues to shock and amaze me. It’s her “never quit” attitude, her sense of humor, and her humility that makes this woman SO unique. Rare in this sport do you find someone like her who is just as interested in training and promoting others and this organization, as most are in training and promoting themselves. She is a rare and beautiful woman with a World Class physique who I have NO DOUBT will continue to make quite a mark in this industry.

Sharon, a former dancer and athlete, has been a personal trainer for over 15 years and a national fitness seminar presenter for over 10 years. In 2006, she embarked on an amazing journey, competing in fitness competitions. Sharon has competed on both a national and international level and currently competes with the WBFF (World Bodybuilding and Fitness Federation) where she was awarded her professional status in May of 2011 in Diva Fitness Model. Throughout this competition journey Sharon has been fortunate enough to work with many great photographers and sponsors and has been featured in Oxygen Magazine 2 times, Fit and Firm Magazine, ESPN/Fox Sports 3 times, and modeled for Las Vegas BikeFest and MalibuStrings numerous times. Sharon was recently awarded the Monica Brant E.W.E. Inspirational Award at the 2011 WBFF World Championships; for her work inspiring and motivating women all over the world. Sharon is now a staff writer for World Physique Magazine and shares information with her readers about her competition strategies.

Sharon is the proud owner of PPF a group fitness and personal training studio in Long Beach California; and is certified by AFAA, ACE, Spinning and Pilates Method in fitness and is an examiner and provider for AFAA & ACE for the Step, Primary and Programs of her own. In her spare time she works as a professional acrobat performing in night clubs and special events all over the world.

Lindsay Forster is a “little” girl we can ALL look UP to!!!

Be the first to comment!

From battling Crohn’s Disease at a young age, all the way to her journey to her first competition and her passion for both training and training clients. Safe to say the Fitness lifestyle was made for someone like Lindsay Forster.

Lindsay is a Midwest girl from Bloomington, IN. She moved to Miami, FL after graduating from college but then decided to move back to her hometown two years ago. At the age of eight she was diagnosed with Crohn’s Disease, a chronic inflammatory disease of the intestines that may affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract. Crohn’s Disease is a debilitating auto-immune disease which causes many unpleasant symptoms. Throughout elementary school and middle school Lindsay was put on several medications for the chronic condition including steroids. She was made fun of constantly for having “puffy” cheeks and became extremely critical of herself. This eventually led her down the path of anorexia and bulimia and other unhealthy exercise and eating habits. Just a few years ago she made a vow to herself to get her life together and BE HEALTHY. Lindsay read every fitness magazine she could get her hands on and started lifting weights and actually EATING! 5 to 6 MEALS A DAY in fact! Her body started to change and she began to see results–muscle and definition. She felt strong and athletic! Lindsay just competed in her first Figure competition where she placed in the Top 5 and can’t wait to compete again. Competing was all about a goal. Lindsay set a goal for herself and she reached it! It was more than stepping out on stage in a bikini- it was about determination, sacrifice, focus, and NOT GIVING up! The process taught Lindsay so much about herself– she didn’t need food as a crutch, she COULD keep going even after she felt like she couldn’t go anymore and she could DO ANYTHING she set her mind to.

For her next goal, Lindsay would like to compete in her very first WBFF Show. She was first inspired by the WBFF when she networked with some of her inspirations via Facebook. Many of her inspirations are competitors within the organization- Claire Rae, Chady Dumore, Miryah Scott and Monica Brant. She recently met Claire Rae at the Arnold Classic this year. Lindsay hopes to compete in the US Central Championships in Kansas City, MO this May and become part of the WBFF where it is all about the athletes. “The excitement and adrenaline that the shows have is just amazing,” Lindsay says. “I would love to be a part of the WBFF and show that you can overcome adversity and reach your goals.”

Lindsay lives by a great mantra and positive attitude; “A winner is not someone who has never suffered a setback. She is someone who knows that when setbacks come, she must get up and continue forward. If you refuse to quit – you cannot lose. Quitting is not an option, but change is always part of the winner’s life. Anyone who is willing to change can develop a winning attitude.”

WBFF Pro Natalia Muntean for REPS! Magazine

Natalia Muntean

“Working with Natalia was a breeze; I wish other models had her level of professionalism. Best of all, the camera loves her. No wonder three Robert Kennedy Publications are fighting over using her photos. My only complaint is that she could be too beautiful. I constantly forgot I was there to run the photo shoot rather than just stand there with my jaw on the floor. Her stunning looks were mesmerizing. Look for her in upcoming issues of American Curves, MuscleMag International and, of course, Reps! Magazine.”

2010 WBFF Quebec Championships - ContestPrep.ca Shoot with Pink Elephant

—————–

Note from Miss Amanda Lee:
The fateful day has come and gone! I can’t believe it, for the past 10 weeks it was the only thing I thought about…day in and day out. Now, I will remember it forever as the day I went Pro! Such an amazing and exciting feeling I will never forget. The lights, the music, and the atmosphere are second to none at a WBFF show and while you’re up there on stage you feel like a superstar!
Ever since my first show, almost exactly one year ago at the WBFF Calgary show, the prestigious Pro Card was the ultimate dream of mine. With hard work, dedication and the drive anything is possible. Wanting to win is simply not enough, you have to be willing to fight for it and make sacrifices. Push past the obstacles you are presented with and keep going. It is when you do this you will see great results and you will be shocked at what you can accomplish. First and foremost you really must enjoy what you do; health and fitness must be a passion of yours. Also, organize your time, set your priorities, and make sure you allow yourself an appropriate amount of time to peak in time for show are all important factors you must think of. It is when you take this sport seriously and take your training to another level that you will be able to accomplish what you dream of.
If you want to be a pro it is simple, you must train like one, and this is one thing I have learnt for sure.
Don’t underestimate what you are capable of! Believe in yourself! Because you will only be your own worst enemy if you don’t have confidence in yourself! Be determined! Be fearless!
Paul and Allison Dillett, Thank You. It means so much to me to be able to call myself a professional athlete with your organization. The calibre of your Pro athletes is absolutely shocking, and to now be able to call myself one of them is an absolutely incredible moment I am so happy and so amazed! Also, to my trainers, Julie and Craig Bonnett, Thank You, for helping me realise that I have the potential to go after my dreams and succeed! It makes me believe that anything is possible and I can’t wait to see what the future holds!
Good Luck to everyone competing in Calgary! You are almost there!! It should be another incredible show, expect nothing less from the WBFF!

Get a WBFF “Stage Ready” Body

Be the first to comment!

Hope Your Doing Awesome,

Are you considering entering a Bikini, Model, or Bodybuilding show for the first time?

Did you know I have a system for getting you a stage ready body developed from my years in the industry as a competitive bodybuilder, judge, and event producer?

And my network of fellow “fitness fanatics” who experiment with the latest cutting edge training, supplement, and nutrition information.

Over the years the core of the system has stayed the same…it is also responsible for the daily, weekly, and yearly improvements my friends see in their physiques.

The 4 keys to getting the body you want: A specific combination of nutrition, weight training workouts, cardio sessions, and supplements.

Your biggest problem when preparing for a contest: Within these 4 combinations are thousands of different ways to combine them…for different results.

If you’re like most people you’ve been “stuck” on one of these no result ruts with little or no results.

You could spend years and years trying the break the code for a stage ready physique in minimum time…

Most people do.

But you don’t have to…because of my unique position I’ve been able to unlock the code for you…

I can give you the Insider Shortcut…

Follow this link: Stage Ready Nutrition and Training Program

See You On Stage,

Brian
