In recent years, the business grew to the point where she was able to put more time into her fitness goals and achieve several certifications. Most recently she has passed the ACSM exam. She has also trained for and competed in the NPC amateur figure competitions. Lynne is a mother to three wonderful children Ian 20, Colin 18 and Katie 14.
