Kandis Arzu-Thompson, Dedicated to Life-long Fitness

23 Sep

Kandis believes in life-long fitness including during pregnancy. In her first pregnancy, she had minimal photos taken, but this time she decided to show other fit women that they could continue training at an intense level including when they are expecting. This photo series only hints at her strength, power, and endurance. Just wait until you see her doing pushups, lunges, and squats!
