My name is Abby Graalman and I have been in the BMX community for years, from the age of 5 years old. I won many Canadian National Championships (10) and was on the national team, my first year in Junior. After shattering my collarbone 8 weeks before the 2009 worlds in Australia, I made the semi's and that was my last major race. I have had chronic pain in my collarbone when riding since then, so decided to enter and compete in the world of bodybuilding.
I am now competing at a national level and am going to compete at nationals for the first time August 10th in the Bikini Tall Category. I am nominated and made it to the finals for Status Fitness magazine's Cover Contest over social media. I get two points for each share of the photo, and one point for each like of the photo. Who ever wins this contest gets the cover of Status Fitness and a bio, and the top 25 get a full page spread along with a bio. In my bio, I will be writing how BMX has shaped my world of sports and discipline, and shed some light to the fitness community about the major role that BMX has played in my
life and approach to the sport of bodybuilding.
The contest goes until January 30, and as of right now, I am in second place. Fan's must be sure to like the photo (not the post), in order for it to count. Also, encouraging other friends to share and/or vote will help me make it to the top! Status Fitness Magazine is the top fitness magazine in North America and would be a dream come true to be featured amongst such high caliber athletes. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this request for support, and am so thankful for my BMX family's support!

After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
