Danielle Hollenshade NPC Figure

How did you get interested in fitness/working out?

I would have never gotten this far if it weren't for my mother, Lisa Glennon. She has been an inspiration to me from the beginning. My mother is the reason I am involved in fitness and has always motivated me to make health and fitness a part of my life. I am very lucky to have her. She supports me 100%, and truly cares about my dreams & goals. I believe that to reach your goals you must have balance in every aspect of life. You must balance good nutrition with exercise, and be happy with who you are and what you have accomplished.

What are your future goals in this industry?

To earn my IFFB pro card in the figure division. I hope to be sponsored by a company who's products I believe in and can stand behind, and would like to get more into fitness modeling. My future goal is to open a gym to people of all ages, specializing in children’s fitness. I believe it is so important to encourage children to live a healthy lifestyle from the start. I want to help people of all ages live a healthy, happy, fulfilling, energetic life.
I truly believe you can do whatever you put your mind to. No dream or goal is unattainable. With hard work, dedication and patience anything is possible. I will never give up and will continue to promote fitness to all people through my own experiences and training.

What do you see yourself doing in 10 years?

in 10 years I see my self happily married to the love of my life (yet to find) and to have if not 1, then 2 beautiful children. I believe that family is such a important part of your life and with out your family who do you have.
I would aso like to be running a very succesful personal training studio.

Any additional notes? People you would like to thank?

I want to thank my mother for all of her love and support.
My clients for their support and understanding....needed days off and grumpy moods.
