'My Big Fat Fabulous Life': Whitney kickstarts her practice to take part in her first weightlifting competition
Whitney Way Thore is not afraid to start something new and this time the reality star is taking up the challenge of getting good at weightlifting. Whitney has been working on her weight for a long time now and working out along with her trainer, Jessica Powell, she has found a new confidence that she never had.
While the two started off easy, things have been getting better for them as Whitney as progressed over a couple of months. This led Jessica to make a suggestion about Whitney practicing weightlifting. Hearing this, Whitney did not seem confident that she would be able to do it as she thought she did not have the stamina and strength needed to pursue weightlifting.
However, seeing the confidence that Jessica had in her, Whitney thought that it was worth a shot. Before she realized it, Whitney found herself falling in love with weightlifting. Due to the workout, Whitney was also able to shed some weight due to her workouts. But in today's episode of 'My Big Fat Fabulous Life', Whitney was surprised to find out that Jessica enrolled her for a competition.
Jessica and Whitney were planning to go for a competition together as a team but she thought it would take a long time until it was made a reality. Even though she seemed surprised, Jessica assured her that it was an in-house event and would not involve many people. To fully convince Whitney, she further revealed that the competition is for a charity.
Hearing this Whitney found herself in a difficult situation and thought it would be a good idea to enter the competition and agreed to go ahead with it. The two started their workout soon after and Whitney tried to push herself as far as she could. Even though things seemed difficult, she assured that she was motivated to take up new things.
