Interview with RVA Bodybuilder | S2 #29

On today's episode we have Amanda, a competing body builder in RVA. Upon having twins, Amanda's doctor advised her to start lifting weights to strengthen her core muscles which ultimately sparked her passion for picking up heavy things and putting them down again. Since then, she came in second place for her master's class and she won her open class. We discuss the injury that lead her to begin bodybuilding, how she preps for competition, how she found her coach, dieting (cutting, bulking and reverse), the different kinds of bodybuilding competitions and more!We also talk about the Cyber Truck, Arnold Schwarzenegger and the origins of the demon Krampus! 👹 🎅 Support Amanda:@imamandanelsonRVA Bodybuilding Resources:@ocbrichmondvahttps://ocbonline.com/https://www.facebook.com/OfficialOCB/https://ifbb.com/Upcoming Events:Sunday, Dec 15th: Lakeside Christmas Market (FREE & Family Friendly, No Pets)Thursday, Dec 19th: Candlelight Holiday Special by Fever @Bolling Haxall HouseSaturday, Dec 21st & Sunday Dec 22nd @Stone Brewery (12-4pm) Winter Moon MarketMonday, Dec 23rd @7PM: Bart Chucker Band at River City Roll (Christmas tunes)Tuesday, Dec 31st: Suggesting Rhythm Band (RVA's best Grateful Dead cover band) @Hardywood BreweryBusiness Of The Week:Proper Pie, 2505 E Broad in Church Hill: They sell New Zealand style savory and sweet pies to-go.
