LA Muscle caught up with the lovely JNL at her Los Angeles pad and asked her "What’s the secret to your success?" and "how can millions of other women around the world benefit from what you preach so heavily"?
Even though her road to stardom almost seemed like it happened over night, this could not be further from the truth. At a very early age, JNL struggled in her life on all fronts.
Her parents divorced when she was just 12 months old, leaving her mum and three siblings to fend for themselves. By 13, Jennifer Siciliano as she was known then, had become used to living a poverty sticken life.
Times were harsh for this first generation Italian who lived in a small southern town in Tennessee suffering racial attacks for her dark olive tone skin. Though her mother could not provide even the basic necessities, she did equip Jennifer with the tools to succeed no matter what came her way.
Jennifer recalls "Even though my mum couldn’t give us toys, she did give us the greatest gift of all, the gift of learning how to never give up."
It's this fearless (and sometimes ferocious) free spirit that landed JNL the nickname "La Tigra", which translates to "The Tigress". It is this invincible spirit that JNL tries to inspire in others when she works with them either in
the gym, on her consultations, at the JNL Bikini Boot Camps, or in her Fitness Evolution Program – www.jennifernicolelee.com for more info.
"It's my mission to help everyone increase the quality of their life. If I help one person realize their true potential, then I have succeeded" Jennifer Nicole Lee
After years of yo-yo'ing up and down on the scales, suffering from emotional eating, and being a size 6 to a size 16 and everywhere in between, JNL lost an astounding 70 pounds leading her to be crowned Miss Bikini America after the birth of her second child. In 2006, at the age of thirty-one, Jennifer Nicole Lee was crowned the first ever Miss Muscle and Fitness, making her one of the most sought after fitness models in the world.
