Farrah Lin is a native San Diegan. Growing up, she was not physically active. In fact, she received a C in physical education during high school. She also struggled with emotional eating. When she was 19, she cleaned up her eating habits and began doing step-aerobics. She has been interested in nutrition and exercise ever since. When she was 23, she hired a personal trainer at 24 Hour Fitness. He was instrumental in getting her to lift heavy weights, reassuring her that lifting heavy would not bulk her up. He also taught her to focus on large muscle groups. She heeded his advice and was pleased with the results. In January 2008, she and her husband started training with kettlebells at Iron Core. After a few months, she fell in love with kettlebell training. The results were amazing. She increased muscle mass and lost fat, including the dreaded cellulite. She feels that her body and mind are much stronger. Her favorite exercises are the turkish get-up and the snatch, even though they did not come easy. She continues to do traditional strength training and still takes her step-aerobics classes. She is so passionate about kettlebells that she even takes her kettlebell on vacation.
