Missing Monsters today, especially that new Ultra Zero flavor! Unfortunately, a multivitamin I was taking caused me to have acid reflux and irritated my esophagus 😫. Which means no caffeine, fatty foods, or alcohol until it heals. I don’t know how I’m going to survive without caffeine, you guys! Especially while working from home 🙈. But, on a positive note, here’s another transformation photo, because I’m so proud of how far I’ve come! Even during the Stay At Home Order, I’m still trying to keep up with my workouts and healthy eating (even with this restrictive diet my doctor put me on). My macros aren’t exactly going to be on point, and I’m okay with that.
Also, if you didn’t see my story, I have officially decided to start a YouTube channel! I started filming this week, and I’m so excited to share everything! I’ll keep you all posted when everything goes live 😀.
My pre-workout routine!
My routine usually depends on if I'm working out at the gym or at home, so here are both!: ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Gym: I use the gym my work has (can't beat free!). I'll take my last break about 20 minutes before I get off and eat a snack, usually a @1stphorm Level-1 protein bar. After that, I drink a little bit of water, then down my pre-workout. By the time I finish up work and walk down to the gym, the pre-workout is kicking in (it usually takes about 30 minutes). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
At Home: I get off at around 2:30pm. On my way home in the car I eat a snack, usually a @1stphorm Level-1 protein bar. Once I get home I will drink my pre-workout and then wipe my makeup off, change, and set up the weights/bands I'll be using for my workout. By this time the pre-workout is usually kicking in. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I always workout AS SOON as I get off work, otherwise I know it won't happen. I made this a habit/routine, so my body is used to it. Do you have a different pre-workout routine? Let me know in the comments!
