Strong bodies: fitness & health

This blog will cover all city and statewide bodybuilding competitions and the out-of-state guest posers. Weight-loss success stories from local people, features/bios on bodybuilding, fitness and figure competitors, coverage of fad diets. Nutritious recipes and reviews on local gyms and health food stores. I would also like to cover Adult/Childhood Obesity in America and specifically,Alaska. Weight-lifting techniques/safety as well as the benefits for women. This is just a general idea, as the blog will be constantly evolving.


About me

Stephanie Figarelle

I competed in my first bodybuilding competition as a senior at East High in 2000 and after winning the overall title, bodybuilding and fitness became my passion. I've been a NASM certified personal trainer since 2004 and I love helping people achieve their goals with fitness and proper nutrition. My overall bodybuilding titles include: Ms. Anchorage 2006 and The Anchorage Crystal Cup 2007. I have lived in Anchorage since 1988.

Plastic protein powder containers, water bottles, vitamin/supplement bottles, etc. are usually all recyclable (#1 PETE & #2 HDPE). Check the bottoms of each container for this information. As fitness enthusiasts, we all consume a lot of protein powder,fiber, vitamins and drink tons of water- especially gallons of bottled water.

If you don't already recycle these items, it's a good idea to start. Anchorage has a free recycling center where you can drop off just about anything that needs recycling.
