Ms. Fitness Model New Mexico

By Amy Archuleta

When Bree’Anna Lucero (BS 14) chose to attend ENMU she had no idea the path would lead to her winning the title Ms. Fitness New Mexico for 2015. Every step of her path has had the right people and circumstances to guide her to success.

Bree’Anna starred at ENMU as a two-sport athlete who excelled in track and field for two years and volleyball for five years. She recorded 213 kills, 8 aces and an average 0.77 blocks per set as a middle blocker. A Criminal Justice major, Bree’Anna says that “being a student-athlete is a lot more work than it appears. It takes the effort of a full-time job, but if you’re doing something you love, it doesn’t feel like a job. It’s a privilege.”

Bree’Anna brought that same student-athlete dedication to her first competition, May 16, where she earned the Ms. Fitness Model New Mexico title, and placed second in Bikini Modeling and third in the Figure category. This month, Bree’Anna will compete at the Fitness America Weekend 2015 held in Las Vegas, Nevada. Bree’Anna intends to transition from an amateur to professional athlete status at the event by earning her “pro-card”.

She first learned about and then joined a competitive fitness team based out of Clovis. Bree’Anna adjusted her eating habits and developed a bi-daily workout routine. “Competing itself was such an amazing experience. Once you step on that stage all the stress goes away and you get to show your final product from the last three months of work,” says Bree’Anna.

Bree’Anna is working on her personal training certification as well as certifications to instruct Crossfit, kick boxing and yoga. She would like to continue with fitness competitions and modeling.

Long-term, she plans to use her criminal justice degree working with juvenile offenders. She says, “If I can be that light for someone to help them find the right path and get their lives on track, I know I’m doing my part here on earth.”

She thanks God for placing the right people in her life to help her prepare her and guide her not only for fitness competitions, but also long term success through dedication.
