Hope Harper started competing 4 years ago. Before she embarked on the sport of bodybuilding, she was an Allstar cheerleader. In her later years she obtained the title of captain of her division one collegiate cheerleading team. Hope is not only a captain of her cheer team, she is also a personal trainer at the UFC Gym in Reno and a coach for team Absolute Physiques. She accomplished this all before the age of 21.

In this episode we talk about the differences she faced when beginning bikini competitions. What was different about her training? What were the changes in her diet? What exercises in cheer helped her to build a good foundational physique? You will find out in this episode. Although Hope has a fantastic body, She really shares how much she used to train before she even started competing to build her physique to the level she wanted. She is a wonderful example of what can happen after years of consistency.

Key Takeaways

A true test of character isn't how you are on your best days, but how you are on your worst days.
Focus on why you started and what keeps you going, because you won’t always be motivated
See a show before you start competing
You must be patient with how your body will respond
Find what works best for you
Always be grateful
Be focused and consistent with yourself
