~ Coffee vlog ☕️🌟~

starting to make more coffee at home so I can reduce spending money at coffee shops lol

I saw this girl’s vid recommending the @bluebottle Bold coffee beans and I decided to try them! The notes of these beans include dark chocolate, hazelnut and marshmallow and OMGGG I can tell you it’s SO GOOD. I just brewed it in my Moka pot, and added almond milk to it to make this iced cortado situation (equal parts coffee to milk)

10/10 will be buying these beans again when I run out

Leg day vlog 🤟🏼🤟🏼

haven’t done one of these in a hot minute hehe (explains why I forgot to record literally half of my workout smh) but switched up my routine a bit to focus more on hypertrophy and less on strength.

Don’t get be wrong I love the 5x5 method and it’s super fun to squat with volume but now that I’m ~lean~ bulking I want to focus on more targeted exercised for specific muscles, in order to maximize muscle growth :}

Anyways hope everyone is having a great week so far! 😙🤍

BACKK DAYYY 😛😛

Ive decided to switch up on my routine (literally the tiniest bit) bc a lot of my exercises target mainly lats and not the inner back OOPS my bad. Soo instead of tight grip T bar rows, I’m switching to wide grip T bar rows and keeping the rest the same. I KNOW I genuinely didn’t change anything but hopefully now I’ll gather my inner back more and get some sick definition and depth in my back 🤟🏼🤟🏼

I hope everyone’s week has been going well so far, ALMOST TO FRIDAY HEHE

PS peep the new pose she’s super dope :}

PPS I am in LOVE with my cava bowl that I prepped this week if yall want a recipe let me know but it’s super straightforward lol :))

brekkie these past few days hehe :} 🍞🍳🥑🍓

been really loving sourdough toast! I get a loaf from Whole Foods which is HUGE and only for like $5 for homemade bread soooo do with that info what you will. I love eating it with avocado (obvi we love Avo toast round these parts), smoked salmon, heirloom tomatoes, everything bagel seasonal & RedHot. I LOVE HOT SAUCE ON MY EGGS! Or anything for that matter, top five topping to put on food in my book :}

Also fruit is mandatory, I don’t make the rules. Arguably fruit is a breakfast food so of course it belongs on the plate, plus we got fiber goals to hit THANK YOU very muchhh

winter arc is upon us and a kind reminder to EAT YOUR FOOD IF YOU WANT TO BUILD MUSCLE

I understand being afraid of eating more especially after becoming aware of calories and mindful eating to be lean, howeverrrr to look lean you must first build muscle. which takes what? EATING IN A CALORIE SURPLUS THATS RIGHT

So pleaseeee eat your protein and lots of carbs to fuel yourself and give your body the extra energy it needs to build new tissue! Let’s get jacked

I was struggling to set up my phone against my water bottle, and AMANDA WAS SO SWEET @gymvibezonly_ and let me use her tripod to record my sets! 💗💗 She sent me the link and I WILL IN FACT be purchasing it. So be on the lookout for me now properly recording content! 😛😛😛

Anyways was feeling a little extra strong today so I added 2.5s to my usual working weight and girl… I’m definitely psyching myself out because why was I so scared and I was able to do 8 reps on my very last set… YOURE STRONGER THAN YOU THINK YOU ARE 💗💗💗✨✨

Been dealing with body dysmorphia lately so I had to remind myself just how far I’ve really come with my physique. Genuinely blows me away when I scroll through my camera roll and see what I looked like only a few years ago.

I have no idea when I decided to start taking the gym seriously, but I am so beyond grateful for keeping that promise to myself because the progress I’ve made is insane (at least to me).

I feel like I have to keep reminding myself that the influencers I see online who have CRAZY physiques have been putting in the work for yearssss by @training.withpaige

GUYS CALL ME CRAZY but after getting the slightest bit tanner (no I didn’t) my muscles look more defined. LOCK HER UP SHES CRAZY IM NOT TAN but now I understand the hype behind tanning after the gym. If I didn’t work indoors for most of the entire day I would be all over this concept
