 5451 Arthur Rd, Slinger, WI 53086 877-905-4653 Eleven years ago, Kaye Braun of Waukesha, WI couldn't pull herself out of bed. Last summer, she benched pressed 145 pounds and deadlifted 240 more. Braun, 44, did the weightlifting at Wisconsin State Fair's annual bench press and deadlift competition and finished first in the woman's Masters Division. That's certainly a long way from the woman who was bedridden for an entire year with numerous problems. Besides being overweight, Braun nearly died when she began hemorrhaging badly after  the birth of her second daughter (she also has a twenty year old daughter). She also suffered from several serious health problems at the time, including arthritis, osteoporosis, iron-deficient anemia, chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and hypoglycemia.
Braun, who began weightlifting three years and has dropped over 60 pounds since then, started the Better Health Club out of her own interest in nutrition. "I had overcome my health problems, but I decided to get into weight-training because some of my clients were in bodybuilding and I had terrible back problems" said Braun. "So rather than going to the chiropractor three times a week, my alternative was to build my back." "When I got into it, I just enjoyed it so much. I was gaining so much personal benefit that I decided I might as well compete." Her victory at the State Fair was actually her first real competition. "I think it impressed a few people that somebody at my age could do all this" said Braun. "What's exciting to me is that I'm preaching the point that I can lift against people half my age and actually compete against them."
