Such an honour to have you on Muscle & Fitness Hers, everyone has their own special story about how they got involved in health and fitness. Could you tell us a little bit about your journey to where you are today?
I grew up a competitive gymnast and cheerleader. Being an athlete, training 4-5 hours per day…health and fitness was innate. I loved every minute of it!
What is your typical workout routine?
I truly try to listen to my body and not take training too seriously. I do what I am in the mood for. If its nice outside, you can usually find me on a jog or doing a HIIT session outside. Indoors, I love to add a lot of plyometric training to my workouts. Anything with jumps, lunges, pull ups and dumbbells, count me in! I focus on keeping my heart rate up with interval training and supersets.
Do you work out with a particular trainer and what are a few of the top things they’ve taught you?
I train solo! Headphones in, music blasting My workout time is my time to unwind and be alone!
Keeping camera-ready sounds like a full-time job! What is your diet and supplementation like?
