BBGmeetupOC (April 30, 2016) On a endorphin-high right now cause I got to meet some babes IRL😍🙌, my @polarglobal watch says I burnt 416 calories, & tasted some delectable treats from @the_unbakery! Not bad for an introvert, not badd *insert success baby meme* Happy Saturday yall! . . . . . #polara300#workout#fitspiration#fitspo#bbg#thekaylamovement#bbgmeetupoc#squatspo#girlswholift#healthy#fitness#strongnotskinny#beachbody#justdoit#cardio#hiit#bbgla#nikela#asiangirl#iifym#squat#nike#gymapparel#shesquats#blog#gymlife#lornajane#progress#nike#operationbuildabooty A photo posted by D e a d l i f t s🍩D o n u t s (@rawrdianasaur) on Apr 30, 2016 at 1:33pm PDT I was lucky enough to sign up for the 10 am session. It's so strange on my part.. that I have this weird habit of mentally trying to come up excuses to flake out of an event. I think it's my social-anxiety and timidness to go somewhere by myself. But I'm really pushing myself to not have this mindset a...

A photo posted by D e a d l i f t s🍩D o n u t s (@rawrdianasaur) on Apr 24, 2016 at 9:58am PDT I saw a super ripe banana on the counter, so I'm glad the little light bulb went off and I thought about Banana pancakes! I've tried it before but only with banana + eggs.. it didn't really come out very well and that day I had scrambled eggs that tasted like bananas. It was slightly off-putting. So today I tried to find a 3-ingredient recipe with oatmeal flour in it. And eventually came with this successful find :D ( Recipe link ) I think having the oatmeal flour helps add texture and a bit of dryness to make cooking these bad babes a lot easier. Although... I still had almost half my batter turn into pancake scramble. HAha! practice makes perfect however. I'm gonna stick with this recipe as long as I have ripe bananas Anddd, it's Sunday! I'm planning to get a workout sesh in today. Debating if I want to do another leg day or BBG. hmm hmm decisio...

10/12 til Hawaii

Current Summer Morning Routine This week, I originally planned to wake up at 5 am, but unconsciously turned off the alarm (every single day of the week.. I guess 5 am isn't happening yo). Alas I woke up at 6:45 am today. Nevertheless, I strive to start off the mornings well. Make it a Good Morning !~ While I brush my teeth, I boil a full kettle of water for my black coffee and freshly brewed passion fruit tea that I. and my family, can drink throughout the day. I don't know why, but drinking tea just makes the day a little better instantly. While I wait for the coffee grounds to steep, I try to do something productive. It rotates about these activites depending on how early I wake up and how I feel that particular morning: listen to podcasts (current favorites are The Smart Passive Income  and Ear Biscuits ) while checking my instagram feed read my daily devotional and have QT with God listen to edm unceunce music and do fasted cardio, pushups, pullups, ab wheels. Gen...

9/12 til Hawaii - cardio to cap the week

EDC has completely slipped my mind this year,  until it popped up everywhere on social media. It's always fun seeing people's outfits and hair accessories. I think deciding on outfits is part of the excitement and anticipation for attending music festivals. And we all know that Edc bods are hashtag summer goals right? Anyways,  this year I didnt feel any sense of "fomo" except when I woke up this morning and read about Walter White (Bryan Cranston) ft Above & Beyond! This Breaking Bad fan is so peanut butter and jealous. That badassery must've been pretty awesome to witness. Ok, main point of this post. I love to tune into the livestreams during my workouts. I usually end up dancing along with the go-go dancers, djs, and attendees. Even though I'm not at the festival, and would probably never go to EDC, it is still entertaining to listen to the streams especially within the comforts of your house - clean bathrooms, comfy bed, water, food, ac, no traf...

Week 8 -Thursday

Image
I like to eat donuts for breakfast. It makes the rest of the day awesome :) haha But you can't have too much awesome in one week I think treating myself in the morning helps motivate me for the rest of the day. I personally think it's better to eat most of your carbs in the morning so your body can metabolize it while you're awake and active. Although an evening beer would be a nice way to treat yoself too... haha Thursday food diary

Day 12: it's only Tuesday

Jk I probably have that mentality because today I had an exam and yesterday I didn't have work so it kind of feels like my Monday right now. I just want to listen to music,  watch tv and drink some wine right now. But I have work and a planned CHESTSHOULDERTRIS workout + cardio. wine and tv shall have to wait o:) mmm I love Okinawa purple sweet potato. It's sweet and the color is so gorgeous. I'm gonna say.. this is nature's  way of making pastry or cake . I do love me some cake, but I'll take this alternative since I want abs please. However, I didn't plan on eating okinawa today so that carbiness kind of skewed my diet plan a little. Improvise right! So here we have the deli meat wrap (honey ham, cucumber, swiss cheese, avocado, topped with sriacha sauce). not bad not bad

I love having workout buddies

I'm very "high expectation" when I write down my workouts each time. Meaning, each workout is pretty dang intense. However when I workout by myself, I tend to give myself some leeway and you know, take out some reps here and there. Mebbe a set too... o:) BUT, when I'm working out with friends, I realized they're all amazingly very motivating and are really good at pushing both of us to complete the regimen that I wrote down; no leeway. Maybe... I should take out some workouts beforehand :D JK The workout that really made me sore this week TOTAL BODY WORKOUT : ARM -pushups 4x10 -up-downs 3x15 -dips 4x10 SHOULDERS -pike pushups 4x8 -bent reverse flye 4x12 BACK -pullups 4x8 -cable rows 4x8 BOOTY/LEGS -squats on smith machine 15 20 20 15 -glute kickbacks 3x15 -some squat jumps in between sets ABS/CARDIO -mountain climbers 3x30s -high knees 3x30s I got the inspiration from   http://www.fitbodyhq.com/workouts/beach-ready-body-workout/  and I added ...
