Teresa Anthony Bounces Back


IFBB Figure Pro Teresa Anthony narrowly missed out on a top six spot at the 2011 Figure International. She’s packing her suit and headed to St. Louis this weekend in hopes of moving into a top spot. She certainly has the potential to do so. Ms. Anthony gives us an update on her Arnold experience and her goal for this weekend’s competition.

 

 

The Arnold has come and gone, now back to the craziness of my real life. Overall my first experience at the AC was a great one, I felt extremely honored to be part of the weekend. I enjoyed gracing the stage and especially enjoyed spending time with some friends I haven’t seen in a while. As I had a week to reflect about that weekend I realize that I should be very proud of my accomplishment of 7th place. Now I would be telling a lie if I didn’t say that I had some disappointment about missing out of the top 6, but it was a competitive show and that is the breaks. I don’t look at the my Arnold placing as a failure, I look at it is a another wonderful experience that will make me work harder to get better. When things didn’t work out according to my plan, Mom always reminds me that it wasn’t in God’s plan, so with that said it is time to move on to the next venture.

I was going to take a break until later this summer, however, since I am still in shape and feeling very competitive, I have decided to compete in St. Louis. My expectation is to come in tighter and work on my stage presence more. I enjoyed a couple of cheat meals in Columbus after the show, however, I did cardio and drank a lot of water to ensure I would not get bloated from the goodies. I kicked my diet into full swing when I returned home on Sunday, so I am feeling good and ready to rock and roll.

See you in the St. Louis!!
