TURNING HER HOBBY INTO PASSION
With a history of illnesses (Graves Disease & Asthma) Amanda Lynn turned the future into modeling and helping others deal with ailments and health issues. With the launch of her own personal motivational website which turned into a popular magazine for everyone, Amanda Lynn spends her days reaching out, motivating and inspiring others. You can find her involved in many different ways helping people with their own health issues.
FUNDRAISING
Helping others is a passion of Amanda Lynn's so fundraisers are a no-brainer. Amanda Lynn created and organized the Motorcycle Ride for Progeria and the Flurries Snowmobile Ride for MS. You can expect these events to be annual project bringing more awareness to the diseases.
THE BEGINNING...
Fytness Fanatik was founded in 2002 by Amanda Lynn. She had been working out on her own, and noticed that sharing her personal habits with friends began to influence their behaviour. People would tell her that her experiences were very motivating, so she decided to use this influence to help others. Amanda Lynn developed a website, and called on her network of friends and family for support in creating the Fytness Fanatiks.
This group of people are engaged in sharing their own personal fitness goals and achievements with others, in order to demonstrate that anyone can achieve what they put their mind to, regardless of their current size, age, or illness.
With regular updates,the website constantly features fresh and interesting advice and information. Amanda Lynn has also launched her own collection of fitness apparel which feature unique motivational slogans. The clothing is a great way to keep motivated and show people your strength and dedication, and to spread the "fitness is for everyone" message.
With four years of hard work behind these accomplishments, she decided to create a magazine to reach those people that do not have access to the Internet. The launch of Fytness Fanatik the Magazine was in November 2006 was a huge success. The December Issue was 50% sold out even before it even rolled off the press! Not your regular pin-up girl magazine, the Fytness Fanatik magazine is filled with real life stories, real life issues, and real people. Now with the magazine available online, FF can reach more people and fans. Amanda Lynn welcomes and encourages all ideas from new and continuing contributors. Fytness Fanatik is successful because it relates to everyone.
FITNESS
Fitness is something that I have been into for many years. I started training in 1999 and have not stopped. I have coached many people to help attain their own goal.
I also know things don't happen over night and with my own personal experience in being ill (Graves Disease & Asthma), I have proven that you can push on with the right determination and willpower.
