My name is Rhonda Dethlefs, 27 years old. I was born and raised in Washington. I am a personal trainer, and mother of two. I started lifting in 97 with the intention of just doing it for a week as I kept with it I saw drastic changes in my physique. I went to a bb competition a year later and thought it would be attainable. I placed 3rd in my first show. I am a mother of two so that keeps me very busy. My youngest is 3 years old. Right now I am back into competing so my typical day consists of training, and dieting, that is when im not busy with the family. Some best lifts: 390lb squat, 1300lb leg press, 120lb curl, 325lb straight leg deadlift biceps:15.5in, waist: 29in, quads: 25 in, calves 16in My training in the off season and on season are about the same. I always lift as heavy as possible. In the on season I pay more attention to abs, cardio and rest less in between sets. My other interests are art (I love to paint when i get time) and gemology. Current Stats: birthdate 6/75 5'5" off season weight 182 contest weight 155 Measurements taken off season: Biceps 16 in Chest 43 in Waist 31 in Thighs 27 in Calves 17 in Take about an inch off of everything...2 inches off thighs, during contest season. Best Lifts: Curl 120 Bench 225 Squat 390 Straight leg deadlift 315 Leg press 1350 sometimes for reps...cant fit any more on the machine!! Current Training Split: 6 Days Glute/ Hams Chest REST Back Quads Delts Bis/ Tris REST *repeat Calves have been a weak point for me so Ive been training them 4 days a week, and abs every other day. Also have been giving special attention to my lats, and delts. For cardio I do 20-30 min of high intensity interval training on the treadmill. For contest prep, I do this 5 days a week, off season..I cut the time down to 15 min and only do it 3 days a week.
