Sherry is an International Professional Fitness Champion and is one of modeling's top fitness stars. “I moved to California after college, and after seven hard months of training, I came in third at the California Coast Championships and I won the Serge Nubret Bodybuilding Championships.  I didn’t care for bodybuilding as you don’t get to present yourself as a woman in heels and show off the pretty side of you.   That’s when I started competing in fitness shows as I found that they were designed for me.  I loved to perform and with my background of dance, twirling and gymnastics, I knew I would love it.  So I won the Ms. National Fitness, the National Fitness America Championship and many regional victories and 4th at the Galaxy, and 1st runner up in the swimsuit round.

“I have appeared in over 10 national commercials, over 30 infomercials, and appeared in numerous television and movie spots.’  Sherry has the cover and in hundreds of magazines across the globe, making her one of the most recognizable fitness faces in the world. Her magazine coverage includes Ironman Magazine, Muscle & Fitness, Muscular Development, Oxygen, Planet Muscle, Swimsuit International, Physical, X-ercise Files and many other magazines.  Check out her new feature in Planet Muscle and Reality Magazine.
Supreme fitness and good looks are only part of Sherry's success.  Hosting comes natural for Sherry, as she has hosted American Muscle on ESPN, Celebrity Workout on ESPN, co-host on Inside Edition, host of Legends of Fitness and co-host on Kiana's Flex Appeal, Cindy Margolis' Workout Video and Planet Muscle on the E!

Sherry is also an acclaimed producer, having been the driving force behind her successful career, producing the "Pinnacle Pro Xtreme Team" for Body Pinnacle for which she is an International Spokesperson.  She also helped produce the "Miss Fitness Rio," Ocean Watch '98, Oceanquest '99 for Inside Edition and Surfing on the River for ESPN.

Her modeling and acting credits number as high as the reps she does in order to land layouts in the fitness magazines.  Just landed a National TOTAL GYM and PIZZA HUT Commercial and with more infomercials than even Arnold can shake a barbell at, its not surprising that she is the official Infomercial Queen.  She has filmed over 30 infomercials including Total Gym with Chuck Norris, Total Tiger, Ab Dolly and Ovation with Body By Jake.  Not forgetting her national commercials, including Kraft Free Dressing, Diet Pepsi, Bally's and MCI.  Co-hosting "Planet Muscle" with Jeff Everson, American Muscle on ESPN, Kiana's Flex Appeal, Inside Edition and co-starring in Acapulco Heat, Days of Our Lives, and Land's End is just a start to her serious acting and hosting career.  A health and fitness professional, she has written articles on training and nutrition tips for Ironman Magazine, called "Sherry's Fitness Formula," Oxygen Magazine, X-ercise Files, called "Sherry G's Pinnacle Performance," and she is the Fitness Editor for Total Health Magazine and Bodyonics/Pinnacle Performance Virtual Muscle. Along with writing articles periodically for many other magazines, she writes her newsletter for her fan club. Currently Sherry is writting monthly articles for National Muscle Magazine.  Sherry spends 1.5 hours training 5 days a week and is always dedicated to her sport.  She believes hard work and commitment are the keys to success along with PMA (Positive Mental Attitude).  Inspiring her drive to be on top comes from her parents Irvin and Shirley Goggin.  Irvin has been a State Farm Agent for over 30 years, and Shirley is a homemaker, linedancer--five days a week, and a "Workout Queen."
Shirley, who was very active while Sherry was growing up, was her role model as her mom taught aerobics and worked out with Sherry.  Still to this day her mom is on a dance team called “Sassy Seniors” who dance all over at hospitals and malls.  Her mom was a Jane Mansfield look alike and modeled also and appeared in the National Enquirer.  Like Mother, Like Daughter.

The blue-eyed blonde from Chattanooga, TN says she has always had this competitiveness in her starting at the age of eight.  She grew up with one sister, Michelle, and together they were on a twirling team, a dance team, and a gymnastics team.  Sherry also played piano and drums. Southern Baptist Christians raised with a caring, loving family and “My parents were strict.”   

Only one thing is quicker than her success and that is her metabolism.  On the road traveling to do appearances keeps her on the go and Sherry says her food goes with her. 

“Her folks may have let her slide in the cooking department, but the basics is all that Sherry needs.  I love good food but I am glad I didn’t learn to cook good like my mom cause it’s not my lifestyle except once in a while.

“I have always been on the thin side and I started lifting weights in college and looked up to Cory Everson and Rachel McLish.  I am a very determined, dedicated and positive person and whatever I decide to do, I put my mind to it and do it.  Hard work always pays off and that is where I follow the footsteps of my dad as he is a businessman, was in the Marines, a State Farm Agent, Real Estate Investor and worked hard and I love doing business and I have followed his footsteps.

In High School in Chattanooga, she was on the twirling team, track team, basketball team and played the drums in the band.  In College, at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, she was an honor student, Who’s Who, and a varsity cheerleader, played intramural basketball, volleyball and powder puff football.  I love sports and also played on a softball team playing short field.  I was a member of Phi Beta Phi sorority and an ATO little sister.

Look up the word “Competitive in the dictionary and it’s likely that you will find Sherry.  Sherry admits to being a born competitor who loves a challenge.  That attitude and spirit helped catapult her into the winner’s circle of many high profile fitness shows and where she is today. 

I never give up as I keep reaching for more goals.  “Dream to Achieve”
Success is not the key to happiness, Happiness is the key to success.  If you love what you are doing, you will be successful.  Judge your success by the degree that you are enjoying peace, health, and Love. 
Remember:  “Your Health is you Wealth”

Sherry is trying to get a message across to everyone:  Be Fit For Life.  "I want to educate people about Health and Fitness and encourage them to reach their goals.  I am spreading the word of Fitness.  Fitness is not only a goal, it should be a way of life.  I want people to learn how to be fit for life by changing their lifestyle."  Sherry's goal is to continue to be inspiring, motivating, a role model, and help others achieve a healthy lifestyle.
Getting fit is hard work. Staying Fit is a lifestyle adjustment.  You cannot live on a diet forever.  Eating the right foods, the proper balance of protein, carbohydrates and fats, is not that hard.  You will be able to eat several small, healthful meals throughout the day and still find you can lose weight and never be hunger.  Getting into a regular exercise routine will not only give you the body you want, but it will also give you confidence, poise and a great outlook on life.  You will have so much more energy and get far more out of every day.

Sherry is light years ahead of the competition and her careful planning and a sustained pace that can only be called breathtaking are the reasons why.

I weight train four – five days a week.  My goal is to be consistent and I want to maintain.  I stay in shape all year round and that is what helps me get many jobs and repetitive jobs.  I like to train two body parts a day; a push-pull program and I switch my program every 4- 6 weeks.  I do 10 -12 reps.  I keep my calorie intake as high as I can but keeping my fats low and my protein high but all in the correct proportion.  I love to do kickboxing, tae bo, karate, and the Santa Monica stairs - as much outdoor cardio for me.    I started lifting weights to put size on as my metabolism was so fast and it kept me thin so bodybuilding was perfect for me.  I loved it so much and being competitive, I took it to another level.  

I am a very positive person and always happy.  I am a mentally strong person and my persistent attitude never quits.  I have worked hard to become successful.  But when things don’t go my way I know that I can do things another way, never giving up.  I’m always working to reach another goal and I never stop dreaming.  I will continue to be a role model for others.  I want to continue to inspire and help others achieve their goals.  I try to answer every single fan mail.  It gets overwhelming, so I do have a secretary.  Ambitious is an understatement for me.
