Make your workouts intentional π§ β¨
I find these are somewhat underrated tbh!?
back in the rotation because theyβre sooo efficient π₯
And because I hate doing them (so HARD π₯΅) it means I need all of the above because ive put them off for so long haha
Choose a single leg exercise to incorporate into your workouts to keep you balanced π―
Because reverse lunges use so many muscles at once, your heart rate will raise higher than hip thrusts, RDLβs etc so if fitness is your goal (as well as π growth) these are for you

Have you ever noticed that the people you think look the most magnetic and beautiful are actually just showing signs of health?
Having bright eyes, glowing skin, luscious hair & vitality are all signs of being nourished and thriving in their wellness π€ π±
Eat like you respect your body and you will not only feel amazing, but you will notice your features shine β¨
Personalised nutrition plans on via link in bio π
Make the most of your healthy eating efforts by understanding why combinations like this matter β
A lot of people focus on macros (protein, carbs, fats) and calories, but with my clients I also put emphasis on β¨ micronutrients β¨
Eating protein, fats and high fibre carbs together slows digestion so you are satisfied for longer and donβt have an energy crash
Bone broth = collagen and honestly I canβt stand drinking it on its own haha
Olive oil (or other healthy fats) helps fat soluble nutrients absorb; so if youβre having foods like carrots, tomato capsicum and spinach which contain beta carotene (amazing for skin and eye health!) it means you get the most nutrient benefit
Lemon juice (or any vitamin C) helps to absorb iron from spinach (or other plant iron like lentils)
Pairing fruit with protein controls blood sugar levels and keeps you satisfied for longer and supports the anti oxidants/recovery by providing amino acids
Potato provides starch as fibre (prebiotics) and fermented foods like sauerkraut provide probiotics
There are so many magic food combos that are slept on!

Reps and sets below π
β’ 3x10 pull ups (banded as needed - 3 counts down; slow eccentric aids muscle growth). I also look warped because I shot this one in 0.5 ha
β’ 4x10 good mornings - felt strong on these today!! Again slow eccentric
β’ 4x10 smith machine KAS Glute bridge - avoid momentum and rushing as that burn sinks in π

Why you should be eating anti-inflammatory foods ππ»
They work by reducing free radicals in the body via antioxidants and omega-3βs
Free radicals are unstable molecules which can build up in molecules and damage DNA, cells and proteins π§¬
This is what ultimately leads to disease which is why implementing these foods is so important!
Free radicals build up from mental stress, pollution, processed foods, excessive exercise, infection and ageing
The affect these foods have:
β’ lower blood pressure
β’ boost cognitive function
β’ reduced risk of cancer, diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, depression and alzheimers
There are so many other anti-inflammatory foods including tomatoes, blueberries, cherries, oranges, almonds and walnuts - give some of these a go and feel the difference π
