PILATES, YOGA, BARRE, AND SOLIDCORE!!!

Hi girlies! lets talk wellness. I love working out and moving my body so naturally I have been a gym girlie, to a pilates girlie, to a yoga girlie... ive done it all! I swear lol. trying all these different workouts out gave me the best workout routine ever!

3 solid core classes/week

1 hot vinyasa yoga/week

1-2 at home pilates inspired workout/week

SolidCore is my FAVORITE. it's a Pilates inspired workout that gives you one of the hardest challenges in your life! I can definitely say after 5 classes you feel super strong and your body just feels so much better! since its a core focused workout, ive noticed a huge decrease in bloating and overall helped me achieve toned stomach, arms, and legs! it is most definitely a lot harder than pilates!

when I was in my yoga era, I fell in love with vinyasa. basically a practice of yoga that involves a continuous flow. my local yoga studio, offers a HIIT Vinyasa in a 99 degree room. its the best strength building class that will make you sweat and stretch at the same time.

to keep the consistency, I do a couple workouts at home in between my classes. ive done barre and traditional pilates at a studio but ive noticed that those workouts can easily be done any home AND WE ALL KNOW THESE CLASSES ARE EXPENSIVE ASF!!! so I barre/pilates inspired classes at home! these are some of my favorite videos to follow along! I promise they work just as great!

in dire need of a pilates and barre class that emphasizes the art of movement as elegance instead of the soulless solidcore/corepower chains we have right now... i need to be inspired! i want to workout in a space with white pillars and a rococo ceiling painting ୨୧ to have an instructor implement affirmations of beauty, health, and wellness... having my body sculpted in a high intense class to a song like paris, texas... essentially, wishing there were a studio that could offer a class for romanticist girlies so we could match our baby pink workout sets to the vibes of a place lol ♡

I can't wait for the Ozempic fad to die out (which it will given how expensive it is and how many side effects are already showing up) so I don't have to be subjected to it. (x)

Chicago Strength Training

Unleash Your Inner Power: The Benefits of Strength Training!

If you are wondering whether you should choose Chicago strength training as part of your fitness routine, the answer is a resounding yes! Strength training, also known as resistance training or weightlifting, is a powerful form of exercise that offers a wide range of benefits for both body and mind. 

From building muscle and boosting metabolism to improving bone density and enhancing overall well-being, strength training has the potential to transform your life in more ways than one. 

In this blog, we'll explore the myriad benefits of strength training and why it's a valuable addition to any fitness regimen.

Builds Lean Muscle Mass

One of the primary benefits of strength training is its ability to build lean muscle mass. By engaging in resistance exercises such as lifting weights or using resistance bands, you stimulate muscle growth and development, leading to increased strength and definition. 

Building lean muscle mass not only improves your physical appearance but also enhances your metabolism, as muscle tissue burns more calories at rest than fat tissue. 

It can help you achieve and maintain a healthy weight while sculpting a strong and toned physique.

Increases Strength and Power

In addition to building muscle mass, strength training also increases strength and power, allowing you to perform everyday tasks with ease and confidence. 

Whether you're lifting heavy objects, carrying groceries, or climbing stairs, having a strong and resilient body makes life's activities more manageable and enjoyable. 

Strength training targets all major muscle groups, including the legs, arms, back, and core, helping you develop functional strength that translates into improved performance in various physical activities.

Boosts Metabolism and Burns Fat

Strength training is also highly effective for boosting metabolism and burning fat, making it an essential component of any weight loss or body composition goals. 

When you engage in resistance exercises, your body continues to burn calories even after your workout is complete, thanks to the metabolic boost provided by increased muscle mass. 

Additionally, strength training helps preserve lean muscle mass while promoting fat loss, resulting in a leaner, more toned physique.

Improves Bone Density and Joint Health

Another essential benefit of strength training is its positive impact on bone density and joint health. As you age, bone density naturally decreases, increasing the risk of osteoporosis and fractures; however, strength training can help mitigate this decline by placing stress on the bones, stimulating bone growth, and strengthening the skeletal system. 

Additionally, resistance exercises help improve joint stability and flexibility, reducing the risk of injury and promoting long-term joint health.

Enhances Mental Well-Being

Strength training isn't just beneficial for the body – it also has significant positive effects on mental well-being. Exercise releases endorphins, neurotransmitters that promote feelings of happiness and euphoria, helping to alleviate stress, anxiety, and depression. 

Strength training also boosts confidence and self-esteem as you achieve new milestones and overcome challenges in your workouts. 

Plus, the sense of accomplishment and empowerment that comes from seeing progress in your strength and fitness levels can have a profound impact on your overall outlook on life.

Conclusion

In conclusion, strength training offers a wide range of benefits for both body and mind, making it an essential component of a well-rounded fitness routine. 

From building lean muscle mass and increasing strength to boosting metabolism and enhancing mental well-being, strength training can transform your life in countless ways. 

If you're ready to unleash your inner power and achieve your fitness goals, consider incorporating strength training into your exercise regimen.

The HA "Hannibal", an aftermarket refit of the Sherman frame.

"With the Sherman’s widespread popularity comes a profusion of aftermarket kits. One of the most common such kits is the “Hannibal” pattern group, a design characterized by the removal of the ZF4 SOLIDCORE unit and a massive increase in reactor output. With the additional power funneled into the frame’s mobility and weaponry, the “Hannibal” enjoys explosive speed and weapon discharge, making it very popular among reckless outer-rim jockeys."

RECOVERY.

(tw- now/then pictures)

i have been working very hard to recover these past few months and it’s actually going well. u don’t have to read this but i want to share what i did that helped me and also answer questions.

first i started going to soulcycle.

i initially was planning on continuing to starve myself and also burn 700-800 calories at a blacked out room with blasting music on a bike not going anywhere, however the community around fitness where i live has (unknowingly) played the biggest part in my recovery.

the riders: all body shapes and sizes in sports bras and biker shorts is actually really therapeutic for a lot of reasons; u can’t isolate urself at soulcycle like u can at school, it’s a social place. these gorgeous women are also cheering you on while you work out. if you get close enough to them they might even invite you out to burritos or sweetgreen after class. eating with healthy women that you just sweat ur ass off with is LIBERATING AS FUCK.

the instructors: i don’t know where to begin. these people who work out for A LIVING are muscular, healthy, and happy. one of the female instructors at my studio has the same body type as me and it makes me so confident to watch her run a class. they also just have your back always. the instructors are always cheering you on, making you feel worth it, and making you feel valuable. actually, one of my fav instructors at the studio introduced me to this other rider a few weeks ago, who turns out to be a instructor at a place called solidcore. so now i also attend classes at her gym. the community just builds on top of itself.

OVERALL, knowing that i can workout better, feel better, and get better by eating protein, makes it really easy to not keep track of calories but protein intake.

EVERYONE KNOWS PROTEIN IS GOOD FOR YOU! so instead of trying to keep calories low focus on the amount of protein, and try to get the number as high as possible every day. protein makes your performance better every day and therefore is helping you workout to the fullest potential.

second, i have barely weighed myself- which was one of my biggest issues

i took pictures of my scale around 3x per day. at my lowest i was 87lbs. however, i went to get a checkup and realized when i went in, i had no idea how much i weighed because i haven’t felt the need to weigh myself in so long.

but here’s the best part. i’m literally 93 pounds. (i’m only 5ft tall.) however, at my worst i was 120, and because i know i’m healthy now (i’m working out 4-6x per week and not restricting food but staying away from unhealthy ones) i know that 93lbs is just a natural state for my body. keeping with the routine i have assures the fact i’ll stay right where i am, and i’m happy.

third, i stopped taking adderall. (lol)

LMFAO seems stupid, but i’d rather struggle in school then die so….

anyways here’s some photos at my lowest vs now.

this is a very big deal to me because i know the group of people i’m about to post this to and i know which one you’ll probably find more appealing- however, i’m so happy with myself that i can see past that.

I WISH ALL THE BEST FOR YOU. REACH OUT IF U NEED HELP. IM HERE.
