Background
Most of you might know me, I am a bodybuilder, bench-press specialists, bodybuilding/figure prep coach and fitness model. I train at High Peaks Barbell Club and of course Adirondack Barbell Club Home of the Metal Militia! Truly the Strongest benchers on Earth! Bill Crawford and Sebastian Burns are great people. They are all helpful, knowledgeable, and some of the strongest f#ckers I know. I have learned a ton since starting there and learn more each training session. I have been a competitive bodybuilder for over a decade, and, over the years, I have been in someway or another part of the Bodybuilding community. My face and my name is either featured or as an author in all the popular bodybuilding magazines like MuscleMag International, Ironman, Muscular Development, FLEX, NPC News, Body's magazine (Italian publication), B&K Sport (Swedish Publication), Women's Physique World, Oxygen, Powerhouse magazine, Body Talk, Natural Bodybuilding & Fitness magazine, Great Lakes Fitness Guide, and many more. This is what WPW has to say about me: "Anita was a top level competitor, and one of the very strongest women, during the 1990's, and she was at her peak in 1995 when we had our photo/video session with her. Though this was intended to be an 'off-season' shooting, she was very lean and defined even at her higher weight, making it hard to believe she was not preparing for a contest! A great looking blonde with huge arms and lower body, and another woman bodybuilder 'who loved the camera'." My first contest was a victory at the 1988 NPC Boulder B.B. championships. My biggest victory in the sport was winning the 1998 NPC Southern States Heavyweights and overall. The Southern States is one of the Top NPC regional shows here in the US. After winning the Southern States, I went on to post my best placing ever in an International show with a 3rd place in the heavyweights at the 98' IFBB North American. Then I decided to retire from the stage and train for sanctioned bench press meets. I have competed in the USPF, IPA and APF. But, I am coming out of retirement in 2008 for the NPC Masters Nationals! Holy Sh!t! www.anitaramsey.com Here is a little more background on what you are getting. I am a published author. My work has appeared in Oxygen, Ironman magazine, MuscleMag International, NPC News, Body Talk (supplement industry magazine) and I'm the editor at Muscle Update as well as an article writer for Bodybuilding.com. I am also an IFPA Certified Sports Conditioning Specialist, IFPA Certified Master Personal Trainer, IFPA Certified Bodybuilding Instructor, FitOUR Certified Sports Nutritionist, SPARQ Nike Certified Trainer, and NESTA Certified Online PT and a club member of the United States Weightlifting Federation (USWF). I am co-state chair for the American Powerlifting Federation (APF) in New Mexico, as well as a co-promoter of the Halloween Monster Bench Bash www.monsterbenchbash.com.
