ends it with one, depending on
her work schedule, which var-
ies greatly as an assistant store
manager at the Sears anchor
store at the Maine Mall in
South Portland.
“It really is the first thing
that I do when I am not at
work,” she said.
To say that weightlifting and
bodybuilding is in Nyitray’s
blood is an understatement.
About two and a half years ago,
while playing soccer in adult
league, she broke her tibia and
fibula in her leg. Wearing a cast,
she was back in the gym two
weeks later to lift.
“I was doing whatever I
could do that didn’t require
putting weight on my leg,” she
said. “I just couldn’t sit around
and do nothing because I am
a pretty active person. It was
God awful. I’m on the go all
the time and not being able to
do anything for two weeks was
terrible.”
She now has nine screws and
a plate in her leg, but it hasn’t
slowed her down as she has
ramped up her training for the
Organization of Competitive
Bodybuilding Pine Tree State
Bodybuilding Figure and Bikini
Championships that will be in
Westbrook on April 12.
Her workout routine con-
sists of compound lifts such
as the bench press, squats and
deadlifts, and she combines that
with five-sets of circuit training
and cardio, depending on the
day and her schedule.
For the next few months,
however, she will be working
split routines as she does cardio
in the morning and lifting in
the afternoon while follow-
ing a strict diet schedule that
includes eating eggs, oats, lots
of vegetables and chicken. She
eats every two hours, and also
carries around a gallon of water
that she drinks daily.
“It’s not just the workouts,”
she said. “So much of it is really
focusing on your diet. If I’m not
eating right, I can tell because I
don’t have good energy for my
workouts. It’s a lot to focus on.”
Fleurant, who owns Impact
Fitness Center in Biddeford
where Nyitray mostly works
out, and is her personal trainer,
said Nyitray is on the right
track for her first competition,
which will also include a dance-
based fitness routine.
“She has a lot of intensity
and she’s very passionate about
this sport,” he said. “When she
works out, she’s concentrating
on the weights and she is all
business.”
That’s true. On the day she
lifted her deadlift best, she was
100 percent focused on the lift.
After it, she was jovial, talkative
and comedic.
While Nyitray is training
for a figure and fitness com-
petition, she doesn’t look like
a woman with a steroid-based
male physique. She is slender
with slight curves, and main-
tains a feminine figure, which
she said is important.
“For figure, it’s like a beauty
pageant for ladies that are
in shape,” she said. “It is still
important to keep a feminine
physique.”
While the competition is
months away, she has seen
“huge” improvements in her
strength. In three months, her
deadlift has improved from
225 to 270, her rack pull has
improved from 235 to 285, and
her bench press has improved
from 125 to 145.”
“For a person at her height
and weight, those numbers are
extremely impressive,” Fleurant
said. “Her tenacity and her
work ethic are amazing, but at
the same time she is very per-
sonable.”
For Nyitray, juggling a
demanding career, her sports
needs and a social life can be
difficult.
She said she tries to give
herself at least one day to her-
self where she can just relax to
maintain her sanity, but for the
most part, she is focused.
“I get up in the morning and
I either workout or go to work,
depending on my schedule,” she
said. “If I work during the day
and I couldn’t work out in the
morning, then I do it before I
go home. It doesn’t leave a lot
of time for a social life, but I am
enjoying it.”

Hoeper had a keen eye,
even as a very young man. In
1936, Buick restyled its cars
and launched a streamlined
design to critical acclaim
and commercial success.
Buyers such as Hoeper loved
the look. Today, automo-
tive historians revere the
name of Harley J. Earl, the
founder and head of GM’s
Art & Color Section, the
first official styling depart-
ment at a major automaker.
Detractors called Earl’s
group the “beauty parlor,”
but for the first time in the
auto world, design was just
as important as engineering,
and the result was obvious
and immediate.
Earl’s extraordinary sleek
designs created cars with
rounder lines, swept-back
windshields, and fully inte-
grated trunks for the first
time. And they were all
beautiful.
For 1936, Buick intro-
duced four new model
names, including the
Special (40), Century (60),
Roadmaster (80), and
Limited (90), and these
model names endured for
generations. Engine choices
included a new 320-cid unit
with 120 bhp. The rakish
convertible that Hoeper still
loves eight decades later,
cost a princely sum of $1,135
during the Great Depression.
After graduating from
college, Hoeper served in
the U.S. Navy, stationed on
the Becuna submarine in
the Pacific theater during
World War II. After the war,
Hoeper returned to work
at GM Research. Later in
his career, he worked for
General Electric at Cape
Canaveral, Fla., where he
worked on the Atlas missile
project.
Recently, Hoeper’s
daughter Ginny Chrisenton
and her husband Tom
of Lyndenborough,
N.H. brought her dad to
Motorland in Biddeford
to see a 1938 Buick
Roadmaster convertible on
display. The years melted
away as Hoeper peered
under the hood of the grand
motorcar and reminisced on
the engine design in precise
detail. That’s the great thing
about the automobile. Every
car tells a story and it was
wonderful to see this man
and this machine reconnect
after 75 years.
For Father’s Day, ask
your Dad or your granddad
about his first car or favorite
car, and enjoy a trip down
memory lane together, just
like Ben Hoeper and his
daughter Ginny and his son
Dick.
Happy Father’s Day,
everyone.
Julia Nyitray of Old Orchard Beach strikes a pose on June 6 at Impact Fitness in Biddeford. She is
training for her first-ever bodybuilding, figure and fitness competition, scheduled for April 12 in
Westbrook.

FavoriteCar
“I had a lot of favorite cars. My first car was
a 1936 Plymouth. But my favorite was a
1953 Pontiac Catalina-what a beautiful car.”
