Recent progress… I’m using workout clothing to help motivate myself!

I LOVE wearing this cross-back top from Ellie! I’m also wearing Asics shoes, Lululemon shorts.

This pic is post-work out, taking a moment to admire my leg progress. Next steps: HIIT cardio to get my thighs back to where they were before!

I just realized this was on my about me page, but I’d never posted it. Here’s an old progress pic! Thank you healthy eating & exercise!

Diet & Exercise
Cals:
 
Weight: 

Generally ate between 1200-1500 calls, mostly clean food. Protein was between 80-90g. I still hate chicken breast. There are some of my specific foods and workouts here.
The main exercises:
Run: 3.3-4 miles on average, 3 times a week
Squat: 75lb 3 sets of 8 3 x a week
Split squat: 25lb 3 sets of 8 each leg
Plank: 1-2 mins 3-5 times a week

I also did random other exercises targeting other body parts (but weren’t my goals).

What motivated me, and what did I learn?
I gained the freshman 5 pounds and needed to fix it! I learned to touch the weights, that diet plays a HUGE factor, and the importance of consistency. I am really, really proud of my squat form, too!

Next steps
Building muscle. I’m going to focus on glutes, posterior chain, abs, and upper body. I want to learn how to deadlift, as well.

I tried to keep this as bare-bones as possible and focus on the info, but I hope this can help you!
