“I haven't even hit the stage yet this is so worth it.” —Taylor Baker Competing in bodybuilding is not a decision to be made lightly— it requires a significant investment of time, energy, and resources. However, the reward of seeing your hard work reflected back in the mirror, transformed into a symphony of perfectly chiseled symmetry, is worth every bead of sweat.  That’s how Taylor Baker, a character as feisty as they come, feels about starting her bodybuilding journey. Taylor has always had a certain affinity for pushing her limits since her early youth. Despite her spine surgery at 15 that threatened to crush her fiery spirit, she stood undeterred. Drawn in by the rigorous training and discipline, Taylor found her adventure in the world of bodybuilding. As one might expect, she found herself hopelessly enamored with the sport. Listen in as Taylor shares her excitement about her very first competition and how having a support system allowed her to live an exciting life. Taylor and Sherrie also reveal what to expect in your first year of bodybuilding, why having a strategy tailored to your needs helps in reaching your goals and advancing in the game, how to adjust your routines as your body changes every year, and more!
