Leigh Tucker
Personal Information
I am an active 44 year old Pre-Kindergarten teacher (so I need lots of energy!) I am an avid runner but thanks to Julie, I have ventured into other directions. When I’m not at the gym, I love to spend time reading, shopping, cooking and just hanging out with friends and my hubby of 5 years- and the 2 fur kids!
What are your greatest fitness accomplishments so far?
I have participated in many road races from 5K to marathons. I have also placed 3rd in my very first bikini competition and recently took 3rd in my very first figure classic competition!
WHAT CHANGES HAVE YOU SEEN & WHAT HAS HELPED YOU MAKE THE TRANSFORMATION?
Still in progress! I have never been overweight and have always been active. Julie helped me not only tone up but gave me the confidence to go out on stage! I have gone from 118 pounds to 111 for my competition. I have never looked better and I am still improving!
What do you enjoy most about fitness?
I enjoy the challenge of trying new exercises. I love the way I feel after I have had a hard workout. It is very satisfying to see even the smallest changes to your body. I also love to motivate others into a healthy active lifestyle.
What are your fitness goals?
I want to continue to compete and work with Julie. I want to strive to constantly get better-NEVER SETTLE! I would like to add more muscle and come in leaner at my next competition.
What motivates you to maintain a healthy lifestyle?
My wonderful, understanding husband Drew. My family and friends are also another key element. You must have a wonderful support system- and I do!
What is the best part about working with Julie?
Julie tailors her workouts specifically to you- which I love! If there is a body part that needs more work or is lagging behind, she will let you know. I love her honesty and her opinions! Julie is always there to answer questions or give advice. She is a godsend!
What is the worst part about working with Julie?
Absolutely none! I just wish I could be closer than the Internet sometime!
Favorite 'diet' food:
Chocolate Ultimate Muscle Protein mixed into the consistency of pudding! Great for those chocolate cravings!
