Well everyone, where do I start ... Whew, well there were a few sucky days after the show in Charleston, but it actually was a huge eye opener!! I was told by sooo many people to come in softer, and don't flex my legs! .... I guess that was the look that they wanted. But in reality no .... So now without telling all my tricks or giving away all my top gun secrets, I'm just going to say that the way I usually looked last year is how I will be at Junior Nationals in Chicago, with a little more lean mass. Well similar to last year but even more diced and shredded, just from eating clean and training my butt off and cardio two times a day. It's the way that I've always felt best coming in ... but it's going to be different because I'm going to come in the absolute best that I can do and make my team proud.

I have wonderful people supporting me and I have a lot of people that I'm thankful for. First my family for loving me and caring so much about me. My trainer and sponsor/friend who have both helped me sooo incredibly much and stuck through my side through thick and thin. I am so blessed by God and I thank him everyday for surrounding me with such wonderful people and I pray that in this coming show I can make everyone proud especially my team.

There are a few things to bring up .... I had my first webcam at Figurecams.com last week and it was a big success, thanks to everyone who stopped by to say hello! And for all the diet and training questions that surprised me! I will be doing more webcams soon, both at Figurecams and FTVideo, with a couple of sessions next week so be sure to check my web site for the schedule and sign up, come and see me and talk to me! I'd love to see all my fans and talk, it's so much fun :).

And if you haven't seen it already, here is a little video that we put together showing me at the Junior USA's, both on stage and behind the scenes. It's a small sampler of several videos now available in my VIP area.

Well everyone have a great weekend, I'll keep you updated the next few days I will also send some pics, it's a surprise though so make sure you check back before the weekend is over.

Love Always,
Danielle

Hello friends!

Things have been hectic since I returned from the Junior USA's super late on Monday night but I hope to update all of you soon. My puppers Layla got sick at the kennel while I was away, as she usually does because she misses me!! Things are almost back to normal after a little bit of a break, I spent a lot of time with family, but soon it will be back to intense preparation for Junior Nationals. I am going to come in with my signature hardness and conditioning in Chicago so get ready!! I have attached a photo from the Junior USA's so you can see my new one piece and my look at the show, it's blurry my trainer is excited to see me on stage and his hand shakes hee hee. I want to thank my trainer Nejim for his guidance for this show, he is truly the one who got me ready to step on stage at Juniors!! There are more professional pictures to come later and I welcome all of your comments by e-mail or on my VIP forum.



There will be a very special video update coming soon to my web site VIP area, behind the scenes at my last contest, I know you will enjoy it. If you haven't yet you can see some preview videos on YouTube just search for my name.



I appreciate all the people who e-mailed me after seeing my Bodybuilding.com profile last week, the response was tremendous and I will write back to as many of you as possible soon. You too Jessica Rabbit!! :) Bodybuilding.com has also selected me to be featured in the wallpaper section of their site so look for that soon.

The most important thing to say is that my web cam debut is finally scheduled for 9pm eastern time on Thursday, May 10th so if you want details please go to FigureCams.com and sign up (e-mail me if you have questions). I am very excited about the opportunity to chat with my fans worldwide who can't attend any of my shows or appearances!!



Finally, I am entered in the Muscle Up Training Gear "Model of the Month" competition so please go vote for me at http://www.muscleupgear.com/contestants.html or via the link at the right. Thanks for your support!
