Oh that Vegas life! A night out to see Fleetwood Mac @tmobilearena with the people I love the most in this world, my husband @ericgahanatc , mom @pscantalides , dad @pscantal & my friend Geri. We are officially “Vegans” 😍🎉. Pronounced “Vey-gan” & not to be confused with vegan 🌱😆😉. It was a great night! #thatvegaslife #fleetwoodmac #lasvegas #vegas
THE STRONGER YOU ARE THE MORE OF EVERYTHING ELSE YOU CAN DO💪🏽🔥😏. _ Today I decided to upgrade my bell size to 40kg (88lbs) for my 20 sec work/ 20 sec rest interval split finisher. _ Usually I use 36kg (80lbs) and occasionally I use 40kg, but it had been a while since I had used 40kg for two hand swings. However, since I still have my eyes on @strongfirst Sinister as a 2020 strength goal, lately, I have been training heavy two hand (36kg) and heavy one hand kettlebell swings (26kg/57lbs-28kg/62lbs) regularly. _ As a result, when I started out my 20/20 sets today with 10 two hand 36kg swings they felt surprising light. So much so, I raised my eyebrows and thought, “Well, that was easy. Time to go heavier.” Don’t you love it when that happens in your training💁🏻‍♀️😍💪🏽👌🏽👇🏽? _ Today’s 20/20 finisher was a combo of 20 rounds of two hand and one hand swings as follows: _ ✅Set your timer for 20 rounds of a 20 sec work / 20 sec rest split. _ 👉🏽During the first work interval do 10 HEAVY two hand swings. _ 👉🏽During the second work interval do 5 R 5 L HEAVY one hand swings. _ 👉🏽During the third work interval go back to 10 HEAVY two hand swings. _ Today I used 40kg for two hand swings and 26kg for one hand swings. _ What lifts and/or weights have pleasantly surprised you in your training lately? Please share below👇🏽I want to know! ____ #fridayfitness #fitnessfriday #kettlebell #kettlebells #kettlebellswings #kettlebellworkout #finisher #cardio #cardiofinisher #strongerthanyouthink #strongerthanyouknow #strongerthanyoulook
INTERMITTENT FASTING. SHOULD YOU DO IT🤷🏻‍♀️? _ Intermittent Fasting (IF) has been popular for some time now. The problem is, like w/ all popular diet trends, people don’t understand the reasons & research behind them & end up taking them to the extreme & therefore do not apply them correctly. _ I support IF if the person applying it truly understands the science behind it & applies it correctly based upon this science. HOWEVER, I am not in support of it if it is not applied correctly b/c it can end up back firing & I’ve seen people starve themselves & then overeat/binge as a result. _ Based upon scientific studies, if applied correctly, IF can help to, _ 👉🏽reduce inflammation in the body & slow the aging process in mammals as it turns off the anti-longevity gene, mTOR, & turns on our longevity gene SIRT1; & _ 👉🏽promote weight loss. _ In addition, for those of you who are fans of fasted exercise, studies have shown that when you exercise intensely, (e.g. interval training) for 5-30 minutes while still fasting, you are most likely to reset mTOR. _ The combo of IF followed by a short bout of high intensity exercise will boost growth hormone & the irisin hormone, which may promote fat loss. PLUS, exercise helps to make receptors more sensitive to insulin, which helps to regulate blood sugar. _ In order to implement IF most effectively, based upon research that has been done, you want to, _ ✅fast 12-18hrs between dinner & breakfast; _ ✅1x/wk for anti-aging,  2x/wk  for weight loss. _ A constructive approach would be to wait to eat breakfast until at least 12 hours after your last meal the night before. That way you are using the block of time that you sleep as fasting hours, plus a few additional hours in the morning after you wake up. _ Do you IF? Please share below👇🏽I want to know! _ Learn more about IF & research based nutrition & lifestyle practices that help to promote hormone balance & anti-aging in my 45-Day Hormone Reset. The Reset starts THIS Sunday 11/17. Link in bio👆🏽to get details & sign up👆🏽 _ #intermittentfasting #fastedworkout #hormonebalance #weightloss #fatloss #nutrition #fasting
