A tomboy and athlete her entire life, Amber Elizabeth put that part of
herself aside two years ago to pursue commercial modeling. “I was worried
I would get too muscular if I trained,” she tells us.
It wasn’t until some monumental people in her career encouraged her
to “put the ‘me’ back into modeling” that she discovered
her calling. “The fitness industry is like home for me,” she says.
But how’d she land our cover? It didn’t hurt that her passion
for fitness radiates in photos. But it’s her hard work and drive that
won her the coveted spot.
Check out her weekly schedule, and take some pointers to get yourself on
the right path!
