Lisa's Latin Beat: Pumping Iron With Fitness Model Grace Rivera

Lisa Mateo went one-on-one with fitness model and competitor, Grace Rivera, is today's Latin Beat. Rivera was born in Puerto Rico, living in Brooklyn. She's a single mom who became interested in fitness after her son's father told her she was looking square from behind and was getting too fat. (Needless to say, she's not with the guy anymore.)

Rivera began as a fitness instructor, went to college for physical education where she also instructed people with Multiple Sclerosis. From there she went into fitness modeling, became a ring card girl and started entering fitness competitions. Her next competition is coming up in June.

Grace is also a trainer at New York Sports Club in Brooklyn. She took Lisa through a quick workout routine that she does when getting in competition shape. For more information on Riviera, visit gracerivera.com and for more on New York Sports Club, log onto mysportsclubs.com.
