For the muscle or for the mind?

Publié par Gaelle.R

I Notice the girls with the biggest butt in the gym barely does glute exercises and it's all natural. Reasons why is because you don't actually need 17 exercises to grow your glutes you only need 4 in a single session. Doing a variety of exercises all in one session will not give you a bigger butt overnight.

Personally, I never do more than 5 different exercises in one session. Some days I only do: RDL'S, step up, sumo squats, hip adduction and Bulgarian split squat that was all yesterday. I just increase the weight and the intensity because to me that's a lot if you're doing them correctly and I am walking sideways today because I am in pain back there! 

at times I do a lot more reps but all you need is 15-20 sets a week per muscle group how you do it is up to you! you can do sets of 10 reps or sets of 8 reps as long as you're increasing the weight then you are on the right track. When I do a lot more than I'm supposed to, I don't do it for the muscle but I do it for my mind because I am actively destroying my muscles which means I will need more to recover the following days! normally when I lift heavier or when I do way more sets than usual, I am either trying to get my mind off something, so I'd rather suffer instead, or I am angry, and I take my anger out on my muscles but not too much because I don't want to get an injury. Normally I train to failure on the days I am having a bad lol. You don't need to train to failure every time you work out because you will experience muscle fatigue. I am sooo afraid of growth Plateau which is when you stay at one size and your muscles don't grow as much so that's why I trained to failure at least once a week (normally on a Saturday)

UCL NIGHT :)

Publié par Gaelle.R

My favorite nights are when I get to go home and watch a champion's league match :) I am always excited to watch a real Madrid's game or a psg game because they are both good! I want the final to be between real Madrid and PSG!!!  that day I will be screaming, and I feel bad for my neighbors they will think a murder is taking place for how I am about to be excited. 

today's match: that I am interested in

real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid: both of them are equally as good but who's going to be more effective tonight? last time they played against each other Atletico Madrid won in the classico. Today I want real Madrid to be pissed to face their opponent! it won't be an easy game and if it is I will be shocked, but I already know both teams will give their all and that's why the match will be exciting.

The score: 2-1 or 3-1

The reason why I don’t like this generation, not always because I do admit this new generation is less serious and turns every stressful situation into a joke which can help lessen the pain or even the stress. But at times I wish some people were different, I was raised in a totally different country with people who had different mindset about life. When I see how some people react, fall in love or hurt other people without a second thought I am disgusted. 

 

Here’s some things I hate 

  • People turn everything into a trend even mental illness. There are people on social media faking their mental illness just to get attention and that’s not right! Mental illness is very serious and not something we should joke about. Being depressed should not be a trend, if you don’t experience it then don’t talk about it or act like you have it to be more relatable! 
  • Being unfaithful is normalized. The term side chicks or side dudes or even sneaky link are so popular online which shows how much people love to cheat and hide their sexual partners because they don’t have only one! When you find someone who’s faithful you praise them for it but babe that’s the bare minimum in a relationship!
  • People often say if you didn’t post pictures then it didn’t happened! When I was little taking pictures of everything wasn’t popular. People fully enjoyed themselves in the moment instead of worrying about taking a good picture to flex online with. I take a lot of pictures I don’t post! I put them in my electronic journal for memory of things that I have done or how I felt when I got an item purely so that I can look back on my milestone when I’m older or share it with my child or children who knows lol!
  • Kids who are 12 or even younger are on social media. That is very detrimental for their upbringing because they have bad examples of what love should look like, bad examples of how someone should act or dressed! They are being raised by people who are not their parents. Those kids are copying all the bad manners of people who are online. 
  • They keep saying “ you only live once” and “live life to the fullest” I agree with the second one but you don’t only live once (I’ll get to that) but enjoying life to these people means going out every night, kissing random strangers, dancing inappropriately with strangers at night clubs and drinking alcohol until they’re passed out drunk! That’s not a life! That’s concerning. Anyone who has to party all the time is miserable trust me they really are or something inside of them is missing and they are filling it up with partying which often results in them feeling even more lonely. Yes you don’t only live once, the way you live your life at the moment matters because God is watching and you can live again even if you die and if you do get resurrected you will live forever and have a much happier life.
  • People keep saying my life sucks but they have a great life! If you have a place to stay, food to eat, clean clothes, hot and cold water, transportation then you are living better than some people who live in third world countries! Stop saying things like that and be grateful.
  • People will have sex with you and let you see every inch of their body but afraid to give you their heart! They are afraid to fall in love and some would rather sleep with you knowing they don’t love you just because they only want to satisfy their fleshly desires. 
  • People are more selfish and they hide it behind self love! No there’s self love and there’s selfishness. Not willing to help someone in need because you don’t feel like it when you have the capacity to help that person is selfish it’s not taking care of yourself. I agree you can’t pour from an empty cup but if your cup is full then you can share with someone who needs a little bit of help. Humans used to live in communities and they would help one another. 

Often times I retrieve back into my safe space because I hate sharing part of myself online. I hate sharing what I am doing all the time, sometimes it brings me joy but at times I hate it and I want privacy.

Things I stopped caring about a long time ago:

 

  • My anxiety. I get anxious in huge crowds or in public especially when I feel overwhelmed. Now I just don’t care, oh everyone is staring at me (or I feel everyone staring )and I’m shaking? Who cares it’s a human response when you get anxious. I accepted my anxiety a long time ago and I don’t focus too much on it because when I do that’s when I get panic attacks.
  • How ocd I am with order and routines. I used to feel so weird because I want things the way that I want them but now I accepted  that about me and I embrace it. I am a perfectionist! It’s not right unless I do it. I do the same thing every time because that’s my routine and I love that about me because it gives me a sense of control. 
  • Who doesn’t like me. I know that I am weird and my life is unpredictable so I don’t worry about who hates me anymore. I am living one day at a time, I have too much on my plate to worry about that.

Weird things that I do: 

 

  • Watch a football match then go watch the debrief of the match after with people who also watch the match on YouTube or even I stay on after the match to watch the interviews and see what the commentators have to say! lol someone told me “ you already watch the match why do you need someone else to explain what you already saw” well it’s not that I didn’t understand what happened I want to hear their opinions lol

Often times people think working out is easy when you know what you’re doing and I’ve heard people say “ I don’t work out because I’m not sure how to do it right” it’s not really a valid reason because there a ton of videos online to help. If all else fails you could always get a private trainer, I did it for a while and I realize I learn better alone when I make my own mistakes. I don’t like having a trainer because imagine this: you’ve never worked out a day in your life then you get a trainer for the first time but all he’s doing is pushing you saying things like “give me 15 pushups “ there’s no way I can do that! People who work out for years sometimes can’t do 15 pushups all at once! Personal trainers love to push you past your limit but that’s fine if you’ve been working out for a while but my first day in the gym should not be this intense bro! 

 

Working out is not easy, at times I know what I am doing but I just feel so weak or tired that I can even do 10 reps. I just sit down recover and do 5 reps instead because results don’t come easy. You don’t get a nice body if you are working 2 days a year, you need to keep going even if you don’t feel like it. Each hip thrust, each squats and each deadlift count! Imagine yourself in 2 years with a wagon and a flat stomach. You have to keep going to build muscles and you have to eat properly. Personally I make it a mission to cook more than I eat out. Going to the gym is not easy especially when it’s snowing or raining and you want to stay in your bed but you have to get up and go put that work in if you want a nice body.
