Antigone Oreopoulos
Name:  Antigone Oreopoulos
Email:  antigone@ualberta.ca
Birthdate:  December 7, 1977
Location:  Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
Education:  BSc in Physiotherapy, MSc in Rehabilitation Medicine, PhD in Clinical Epedemiology (in progress)
Occupation:  PhD student at the University of Alberta in the School of Public Health
Years Training:  Wrestling: 4.5 years, Powerlifting: 1 year, MET training: almost 2 months now (as of Aug 2007)
Height:  5'6 1/2"
Weight:  140 lbs.
Bust:  Pretty small, and I'm perfectly happy with that.
Hips:  Average
Hair:  Brown
Eye Color:  Blue-Grey
Favorite Body Part:  I've been told that I have decent pipes
Least Favorite Body Part:  My legs. Although they are quite muscular, they just seem a little out of proportion to the rest of me
Favorite Food: natural peanut butter, ice cream, but I actually really enjoy my cottage cheese, chicken salad and oatmeal
Favorite Supplement(s): protein powder (PVL and Metabolic rive)
Workout Music: I just listen to whatever crap they happen to play at Club
Favorite Inspirational Movie: Dead Poet's Society, Rudy, Hoosiers, Million Dollar Baby
Hobbies: Reading, shopping (I'm a girl, what can I say), writing
Future Goals: I am considering competing in bodybuilding
I owe my success to: Definitely my parents. They chauffeured me to sports practices when I was a kid, paid for the lessons, and always said they were proud of me. Although they thought it was strange for a girl to wrestle, and then again thought it was strange when I said I wanted to powerlift, they were nothing but supportive. I also had the best wrestling coach ever Vang Ionides. I would have never wrestled for anyone else. I should also add my present coach, Shara Vigeant. I have only had her for two months now, but she has transformed my body into a lean mean athletic machine.
Other Information: This is not pertinent, but I have 4 tattoos, and although I swore after the first, third and fourth that those would be the last, I find myself thinking about what my fifth will be.
