Hailing from Maryland, Eric Cruikshank grew up around DC and is a popular fitness model in the northeast. She learned how to walk on her hands when she was four years old, and quite a bit of gymnastics training ensued. She was very competitive until she hurt her knee. At that point, she relegated herself to cheerleading all through high school. Like a lot of the gals we see here on FBB, Erica was always athletic, and fitness seems to come easily for her. <\/p>\n
Although she mixes it up, she tends to train one body part per day, eat plenty of protein, and keep cheating to a minimum. She says she loves M&M’s! Unlike lots of figure competitors, Erica gets all her protein from food, she does not supplement. Her favorite fitness stars: Ava Cowan, Tanji Johnson, and Nicole Wilkins. <\/p>\n
Her stats – 5’4″ tall, 115 lbs, 34A-24-31. She has one of the best backs in the female fitness industry. I’m not sure I’m entirely up to date, but I believe Erica has competed in the Team Universe, Maryland State NPC show, and a few others. Erica is a dedicated mother and wife, and has owned her own business. She has shown fierce allegiance to the fitness lifestyle her whole life, and her body clearly shows it.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
