Sarah Herrera

Growing up I was always active and in sports. I was a tennis player, cheerleader and gymnast. But what really led me into the fitness industry and fueled my passion for fitness was the loss of my mother in 2015. I was only 24 years old when I lost my mom and my son was only 4. Seeing her health decline at such an early age made me want to help other women age 30-60 get better and healthier with age. So they can be around longer for their kids and families and live healthier more vibrant lives.

I love lifting weights! It’s incredible how much strength a woman is capable of when she believes in herself and her body’s ability. I’ve done everything under the sun from competitive CrossFit, DEKA training, Dri-Triathlons and now bodybuilding. I’m huge on mobility work to keep my joints feeling good and injury free. I also love the outdoors. I can’t say I have a favorite way to train because I’ve truly enjoyed all the different methods of training I’ve done in my career.

If I was selected to be on the cover of Hers, I would simply do three things with the $20,000. 1. Finish my Master of Arts and Sciences in Fitness & Health Management (something I had to put on hold while I was opening and managing gyms in my area). 2. Invest a portion into my coaching business so I can continue to expand my educational content & programs I offer that help women learn the systems to gain strength & improve their confidence. 3. Save the rest for my son’s college fund.
