Born on March 4, 1963, Carri Ledford fell in love with training after dating a guy who had a trainer and who talked her into joining him. She was a natural at it and won her first overall novice division.

But, the success didn’t stop there; in 2004 she obtained her Pro Card, proving she has the stuff a champion is made off.

This woman is not just about her own accomplishments though, she enjoys working at the Special Olympics powerlifting meets, helping to encourage them to reach their goals.

Her favorite foods include grilled salmon and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. If asked what her best body part was, glutes and calves would be what she hears most often.
