Detours BODY

My new motto from now on (although Nike may have the monopoly on that one)

I’m a studying, part time working mother who is a fitness and body enthusiast and all that makes one tired, exhausted in fact. I’ve noticed a pattern I have now, I can let myself think about all the things that I know will zap my energy for the day and that in itself drains me just thinking about it. I still do what I have to do - most of the time - but my frame of mind can keep me feeling the negative effects of maintaining an active lifestyle. Today faced with housework whilst on a study break I said to myself "JUST DO IT", and I did with vigour.

Classic example of mind controlling the body. My problem isn’t not doing my workouts, the housework, being a mum and wifey, cooking etc..it is actually always feeling tired and telling myself so, which is like a self fulfilling prophecy. If I tell myself just do it and maintain a positive feeling towards my daily tasks I feel more energised. So that’s the lesson folks, positive thinking creates positive actions/outcomes.

Peace and love xox

Most people when working out focus on the things that they can see like chest, abs and biceps. The back side of the body is always an after thought because if you can’t see it you just don’t pay it much attention. Lots of people want a great set of abs, even me but I know my greatest asset (as hubby often says) is my azz! I’m with team Supermain on getting a great set of taut abdominals, so pleasing to the eye, but a great azz is (IMHO) sexy as hell and, can stop traffic from behind before they’ve seen your face - any ladies know what I’m talking about?!

Plain and simple, I want to celebrate the booty, firm round, shapely sexy glutes. Mother nature did bless me with a sizeable ass-et (see what I did there!), sometimes I complain about it, but quite frankly all I can do is make it the best it can be - be proud of it and help other people see that having a big shapely behind can compliment a flat tight tummy

So there you have it. My mission, to pay homage to the firm round bootay

Peace xox

Lately been working out at home, a lot of people ask me what I do and to set it straight it is mainly dumbbell workouts and bodyweight. I set a foundation from my heavy weight training using free weights and machines and I’ve eaten a lot of protein! I don’t need any more mass than I have and my focus is on defining and shaping. I’ve cut back a bit on protein because that was very high but have increased carbs and fats are the same. Decided to join supermaines body group to get tighter abs, although my tum is pretty trim it can be tighter still so I thought I’d use the support this site has to offer, try something new and see what happens. I always like trying new workouts and ideas, I like changing from week to week, but sticking with exercises for that allocated day.

So I’m on 5 meals a day with the bulk of my carbs at breakfast pre and post workout. And that’s it. Trying out Elijah’s regime might see me changing that but I will keep doing regular posts, getting slack on that now.

til next time guys - mwah!
