Trying to get in better shape? Get your questions answered by the experts. We’re excited to announce a new Hi-Health Twitter Chat series so you can ask the leading health and fitness experts’ questions Live!

Our first Live Twitter chat is on Friday, May 17th, 2013 at 8am PST (11am EST). We’re excited to have IFBB Figure Pro and personal trainer Felicia Romero with us.

Felicia Romero has been in the fitness and training industry for over 9 years. Felicia is an athlete turned cover model and fitness trainer (5 time IFBB winner) who preaches “healthy living is not a competition regime, but a lifestyle that anyone can live to with clean eating and consistency”. As a gym owner and personal trainer, Felicia knows her way around a workout. And with an A-list physique like hers, you'd think she'd be following the latest fad diet. No. Felicia takes a back-to-the-basics training approach, and says the key to her success is consistency and clean eating. Felicia is the co-owner of AZ Pro Physiques in Gilbert, Arizona.

Felicia can answer your questions on fitness, getting into shape, food and more!

To join the LIVE Twitter chat, use #AskFelicia. Post a question and Felicia will answer them for you.
