Elaine Goodlad (born May 2, 1964) is a professional figure competitor and makeup artist. She is a makeup artist used by fitness models, photographers, and fitness & figure competitors for photo shoots and contest times.
Elaine grew up in Saskatchewan, Canada in a small town and farming community to Baptist parents. When she was in high school she was involved in sports such as track and field and volleyball. At the age of twenty, Elaine discovered the gym, and used the structure and discipline of the weight training to overcome some of her personal issues and gain new confidence. She continued her weight training regime with the help of a powerlifter, Terry Goodlad who helped her to make the right changes in her regime and helped her improve her physique.
Goodlad's training consists of simple compound movements with mostly free weights (she uses only a few cable exercises and machine exercises). She typically weight trains 5 days a week, and in the off-season she focuses on her glutes, hamstrings, and shoulders as primary muscle groups. Goodlad usually trains two body parts per day on the off-season, and performs between one and two cardio sessions a day, 7 days a week (one with her weight training and another one at night).
